  1. Yes! Why would going to play Greece when they've already been KO'd mean that it would be easy for us...I'd have thought the opposite, they'd nothing to prove so can play with no pressure.
  2. Those BBC commentators!...we are 2 up and there's 8 minutes of added time and all they can witter on about it what result do you want in Denmark? We were dreadful tonight, as we were on Thursday and yet we got 2 wins which is all that counts in the end. Playing a team ranked 100th (with a couple of their player not getting visas to participate) and we're hanging on hoping for the final whistle.
  3. He is but once he has a choice to make invariably makes the wrong one. Hopefully it's something that will come when he finds a club to get a regular game.
  4. Smash and grab...fucking unbelievable. We were absolutely shit for 64 mins,. If we'd been down 4 or 5 no-one could have complained
  5. Well that was 4 going on 7/8. As you say Dundee were shockingly bad - we don't really look confortable playing out from the back but they were shitting all the time. Agree with your comment about blooding young players...Lobban is a RB and should have been on the bench and given a 15 minute runout.
  6. Yes, Milne looks much more assured in a 3. Thought Topi did OK but as someone else said doesn't seem to know what to do when he's got the ball. Clarkson put in a great shift helping Devlin make sure the WB nearly always had to turn back. But Devlin was just superb - he'll either be at LB on Sunday or on the bench
  7. From those photos it appears that Achouchie is about 5 yards (old money) ahead of the defender who not only gets back to challenge him but actually gets goal side of him and then barges him off the ball...from the shit viewpoint behind the goal it didn't look like a pen. and still doesn't...he should have enough about him to step inside when he didn't have the confidence to go for goal himself and so actually gets a penalty. He strikes me as someone, like Palaversa, who thinks he'd playing in a league beneath his abilities so doesn't have to try too hard
  8. Don't think Gyamfi is piss, he's just not a FB, his run and cross in the first couple of minutes was excellent but he was exposed frequently when Well played the crossfield pass which drew Knoester out of position.
  9. One attempt to control the ball bounced off his shins and travelled back towards our defence... he's got the first touch of a rapist.
  10. Bit harsh on JFK considering he's been dead for 62 years.
  11. Motherwell didn't seem to have any trouble beating the first man with their numerous corners which caused us a few problems so I guess their takers are better than the 2 laddies you mentioned.. On a more serious note why do we persist in having all our players in the penalty box when defending corners? Leaving 1 player on the half-way line (as they did yesterday) means at least 2 of their players staying back.
  12. Septic draw the weakest team in the semi-final of the LC - again.
  13. Well I'd hope in 2 weeks we'd have loads of practice with him taking them and should be able to deliver a reasonable cross into the penalty area from a dead-ball situation He's a professional fitba player, for Christ's sake...he shouldn't need another week or 2 to be able to deliver a ball into the dangerous area of the penalty box.
  14. Why are our corners so shit. Karlsson, took the first 3 and they were all dreadful...he motioned for Clarkson to take one and, fuck me, again, it was dreadful. Do we practice taking corners at Cormack Park and target the man on the front post in the different coloured shirt.
  15. I agree with you, the point I was trying to make that no-one else is getting goals or assits. Milanovic should be ahead of Topi as that the latter has had a whole season with us and apart from some excellent moments (his first goal on his debut and his strike against Dundee for instance) he hasn't really developed as we hoped he would. But he's a first choice for JT. He isn't really that quick - and when we have him and Jensen on the same wing then we've got very little pace out wide right.
  16. We've only scored 2 goals this season and one of those scorers is no longer at the club so your comment applies to the whole squad!
  17. Nostrodamus? - penalty (very harsh according to the Beeb reporters) in 96th minute (there was supposed to be 3 mins added on) - or you just know your refs/Var in Scotland?
  18. Devlin is suspended .
  19. He's the same age as Lewis Ferguson was when we signed him.
  20. Should have said "twice" in recent seasons - Dec '23 and Jan '25.
  21. Kinda ruined your point by referencing St Mirren who've humped us 3-0 at Pittodrie in the recent seasons and last time could easily have been 6.
  22. Fulham signed a Shaktar Donesk player for £30m+...hope he was their best player.
  23. Few years back when I was involved withrunning a north London amateur Club - Alexandra Park - we had a young player join us and went straight into our 2nd XI, whose name was Noah Reich...I was really hoping he'd get a hat-trick so I could put a headline our Newsletter..."memory of the 3rd Reich goal will last a 1000 years" - didn't happen sadly and he only played 1 season for us before departing to bigger things.
  24. Went on walking tour this morning and the guide, spotting the Dons badge, said, "I hope you thrash those motherfuckers"...was impressed with his command of English (he's a Rapid fan, FCSB being the commie team).
