That's a bit insulting, mate...lampposts are useful for pedestrians, dogs.

Unfortunately his one tactic turned out to be "trust in luck" (against DU Fletcher missed 4/5 fairly easy chances and against St. J we should have been 1 down before Consi was sent off so that worked well) and then Duk was suddenly on fire, Clarkson was strutting his stuff and Shinnie was a real driving force Unfortunately none of those 4 (including luck) have turned up this season - Duk is looking like a less effective Sam Cosgrove, Shinnie (as you often intimate) is running around like a headless chicken because he's playing in the wrong role, and Clarkson can take a good dead-ball kick but can't often pass to the guy in the red shirt standing 10-15 yds (aul mannies term) from him. We've got a really good centre-forward who is being run into the ground chasing long balls launched hopefully in his direction - he's a striker like Joe Harper..in the penalty area, with a smidgen of goal he'll score (ie the 2 against Livi) because his movement is excellent but Robson asks him to chase about after hopeful balls down the channel or compete with guys 4/5 inches taller than him. I really wanted Robson to succeed but he's shown himself to be too much like Goodwin - my tactics are right and even when all the evidence is showing me that I'm wrong, I'll continue doing it because it'll eventually come OK and I'll be proved right - and as obstinate (Baron not being picked because he's not signed a new contract (I'm assuming that's the reason)...just cutting your nose off etc).

haha...there was a number of times when the Club I used to help run when living down south and at this time of year the ref. would turn up at 1.30pm (for a 2pm KO) and say, "Nah, the pitch isn't playable, game's off...and I'll take my £50 fee thanks very much". By the tine I'd reached Dens Park (about 2pm) the rain had stopped, so as you say, it would have been easy to delay the KO, clear the water off the pitch and start at 3:30/3:45 but obviously the ref. wouldn't then have had time to buy Mrs McDermid a hoover for Xmas (which she will, hopefully, shove up his arse). Still a least I had the opportunity to look round the Discovery Museum...except it was ******* closed!

And now misses a pen.

Care to share?

DUUUUUKKKKK!!!!!

Well they've got Stevie May although you did say striker.

And Hampden when either of the cheeks are to be advantaged.

I'm worse...no wins, 5 defeats, 4 draws. Saturday - time for the law of averages will kick in.

St. Mirren looked very good against us few weeks back that then it was against us!

I hope I'm wrong but he's beginning to look like a 1 season wonder.

Me too...sold out already.

Sorry, are you saying that our left half was behind our right back?

How many long throws did we take and how many did we win...no idea and zero. And then how many goal-kicks did Roos (and by the way he looks very dodgy when the ball is pumped into the 6-yd box) take to the same quadrant and how many did we win...no idea and zero. What is that cliché about doing the same thing over and over again and hoping for a different outcome? Similarly, how often do I say FFS he'll connect with the first defender whenever Hayes trots across to takes a corner?...every fucking time!

Despite all their "possession" we only conceded 4 fouls whilst their number was 18. 4 fouls for a team that is set up to essentially defend shows how brilliantly disciplined and tactically aware we were. Hate to admit it but the ref (presumably not going out to the lodge tonight) was OK. Oh, and how did Miovski miss that chance?

Out Hoping for a stream although probably listen to BBC Beers in town 4-0 Miovski (4 penalties)

Semi-final on Sat 4th at 5:15pm.

At long last 2-0

NORTH Macedonia drew 1-1, Italy would have lost if they had to play whole of Macedonia

3-0 McGinn

Thought Morris had his best game for us...came on, only twice lost his man, got in 1 good cross and then got injured (hopefully not trivial) and was subbed off all in 15 mins. Just really pissed off tonight.

On the train to Queen St ATM. Would like to see us start with the 11 that finished on Thursday and we press them from the off.

Or we could sell Miovski to Southampton for £8m and send Soklar to them.

BBC showing the game next Thursday https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66620796

In train down Beers somewhere in Livingston as Edinburgh will be heaving (egg-chasers game at Murrayfield KO 3:15) train back Beers celebrating still being at the top of the league
