No real surprise. Likely get off with it too, whereas anywhere else in the world he'd be likely to receive further punishment. Are there penalties for frivolous appeals? If so, this one should be the maximum enforceable. I hope we don't appeal but it appears we would have grounds. Whereas there are none for Morelos. McKenna clears the ball and in doing so falls backwards under the force of his own movement but aided by Morelos' straight arm. Morelos brings his left foot across his body in order to make contact with McKenna, clearly in control as he looks at the crowd then down at McKenna in order to aim. Runs his left foot studs down McKennas inside left thigh, moves his foot back up in order to generate extra downward force for a stamp in McKenna's genital area. McKenna reacts to the initial raking of the studs by bringing his right leg up and flicking it towards Moralos, just as he is brining his foot down for the stamp. And we add in the 3 shoulder charges at our defenders by Morelos (unpunished), and the 3 dives/feigning injury (unpunished). Rules are as far as I can find; Boys fancies himself as a thug and was looking for a row all night. He's been sent off 3 times against us and was suspended for the other, this season. True justice would be a career ending injury, next time we play them. as no redeeming features at all. A hun, a pussy who thinks he's hard and one of the ugliest fuckers ever born. Boy makes Davie Dodds look like Beckham.

Thought Ferguson, Hoban, Cosgrove and Considine all decent. Logan and McKenna didn’t seem to know what they were doing. Seemed to be 352 but not sure if we were trying to go man for man again. If so huns had it sussed as Frog heed, Kent and Candieas were dropping off & switching roles. Both first two goals certainly came from Logan chasing Kent accross our area to McKenna’s side, who seemed to be rigidly sicking to his position rather than closing own. Madden didn’t help us by giving the huns fouls virtually anytime there was any contact in the huns final third. Essentially providing them with the momentum. Felt Morelos should have been off for two yellows prior to his dive for the free kick which led to the pen. 3 times he sees the hoof from the hun CB’s looks at the defender and charges him. 1 fair enough 2 have a word 3 yellow. Then when he goes down holding his head after backing in making no attempt to jump and finally Madden waves play on I thought, surely now. Next break in play ref is bringing it back to book him. NOPE. Then he gets away with another dive, BEFORE the dive that led to the free kick. Thought Worral?, looked to have come from behind McKenna after FK taken (McKenna in charge of holding the line felt the same) puts his hand up Goldson fails to make decent contact and ball hits McKenna arm. Niave. But would expect better. I.e. make sure it’s gone then have a go at Lino.

McKenna sent off for getting a boot in the nuts off the frog heeded cunt. Certainly a straightening of the leg by McKenna but not anymore than anyone would do getting a kick in the nuts after having studs raked down their thigh.
-
This is fucking appalling cheating. Madden cheat. Morelos cheat. One yellow card for Logan??? Game is fucked.
-
That’s Cossie and Lewis off. Didn’t see what happened with Cosgrove, Lewis clattered his head off the post. Deep slice in his head assume it’ll need stitches.
-
IF we do get a Euro place we’re pretty fucked for the qualifiers. Lewis McKenna Devlin Logan Ferguson Gleeson Campbell McGinn McLennan Ross Wright May Cosgrove Anderson

Lost one of my Under 14's (mixed team) girls in the summer to Bristol City. She is now playing for England U16's. Her older sister was already part of the Bristol City set up and I have it on good authority from the lad I coach Under 12's (girls) with that she was better than every player in her school year (he's a PE teacher there). I picked up a goalie (who is also part of the Bristol City set up for my Under 14's) in the summer. They train 3 times a week there and as she is one of 3 keepers, is encouraged to play mixed too. In order to help her improve. I think she is almost as good a shot stopper as the lad I have, her distribution is better. She's still too stuck in her penalty area for my liking though. We have two girls in our Under 12 (girls) side, who I think will end up at Bristol City or similar, in the near future. They play for one of the local multi-side per age group clubs for their A team. One is a keeper, probably the best I've seen at that level boy or girl locally. An opinion shared by a coach of another local girls team, who also coaches in Swindon Town Academy set up. The other has the potential to be better than the one I lost from my Under 14's. Anyway point is girls up until 5 years ago could only play mixed till Under 8 or maybe even younger and only in the last season increased beyond Under 16. Beyond that it was girls only and that was stiffling development. They were hardly being challenged by other girls (often just starting out) when they had come from dominating in the mixed game. In addition the only further development they could get was playing County, although it was bringing together the best from that area it was maybe once a week to once a month, this has increased in quantity and I think quality in recent years. Plus we are seeing these academy set ups which are mirroring the boys. Personally I can only see the improving drastically in the next 5 to 10 years.

Seen this on Twitter with a few huns (as per) commenting shit on his value. Never really got why? jealousy? Then it occurred to me ÂŁ5 million is more than their stadium, training facilities and playing squad were worth in 2012.
-
Can’t see why english championship sides wouldn’t be looking to sign him. Big, strong, clever, now scoring all sorts of goals. Type of forward from up here that would do well. Plus he’s a Nigel too, bound to increase interest and value. That said, if tattie heed at the huns is worth £8 million. Cossie is worth that and more. Can’t see the clubs mentioned ponying up that.
-
Suspended and unlikely to take charge again, following an exchange with other employees. Sounds like they’re going to try to punt him using disciplinary measures to avoid giving him a pay-off.
-
Must be un-named Chinese clubs ready with ÂŁ20 million bids for Cosgrove by now.
-
Reads as though contract was terminated at his request. Not sure how strong a bargaining position that puts him in? There’s a possibility we might have given him something to protect ourselves against him turning up tomorrow having signed for Scunthorpe but would hope that original contract and subsequent termination agreement would leave us well protected against that. So not beyond the realms that it was just essentially ripped up.
-
Not sure if you’re trying to stir things up but some of your recent posts seem to go against sensible consensus, just because. Cummings “mercurial’ He’s a fat, lazy, waste of space with an over inflated sense of worth. Never a footballer. If not, I’ll have whatever you are. Oh and whoever made up the McKenna nonsense can fuck off, unless the made up deal involves a 100% sell on clause. ?

Doesn't look great for them. Tim's supposedly looking to loan out Mulumbu. If true, while I'd still like him to come here, I'd imagine he'll be back to Clarke. If they can screw the sevco for some money for Jones to go now, I'd imagine Clarke will be able to bring in adequate replacements for him and Stewart.
-
Aye, if I was a player with relative ability like GMS and my options were here or shit-hole towns in England playing second tier fitba, and NYC came offering an opportunity, I'd be off like a shot.
-
Is it Frank Carson?
-
To replace Rowett is what is being suggested.
-
Gloucestershire sports journalist, who's usually spot on, says he's back to FGR training today. Bolton's transfer embargo means he cannot sign there. Also reading murmurings on twitter that McInnes has had a chat with the Stoke board...

Dirthy Filthy Hun Scumbag Vermin (deceased) and Poundland tribute act

Hilarious, that these cunts are signing for them then pander to their moronic support without the self awareness to realise why they are being signed. :D -

They’ll be able to name a match day squad of all midfielders with the first team entirely made up of CM’s. -

Hear what your saying but assume there will be championship clubs willing to pay more than ÂŁ25k p/w. -
Aye. The two city goals were something else. Both finishes millimetre perfect. Some of the one-touch triangles when being pressed by, at times 5 Liverpool players, particularity in the first 20 minutes. Sane and Fernandinho, in a game where there were so many brilliant performances. I'll often stick games on nowadays and view them glancing up from my phone, not last night.

If true, have to assume some folk are away and any money made pissed up the wall on this vanity project. ÂŁ14.2 million losses last year already an increased playing budget this year. The Mexican lads back from their loans, too. You'd imagine the huns would be paying at least 50% of his supposed +/- ÂŁ100k p/w wages. Won't solve their inability to create effective chances and I can't remember Defoe being the type of player to drop deep to create his own. Will sell shirts with his name on the back though, I suppose. If it happens, along with other rumours, it has to be a final roll of the dice. One last go at stopping the Tim's winning the title this season because they know they're heading for an insolvency event that could result in this club going the way of the last incarnation. -
Doidge went to Bolton on loan till Jan on the basis they bought him now for reportedly 7 figures... I see Exeter have signed Bowman and Stockley's release clause of ÂŁ750k has been triggered. Would be typical of the odd way the world works if we had a sell-on fee, Preston signed Stockley and we used said sell on fee to bring in Moult from Preston.

Their back four/five if you want to include Gordon are suspect. Rogers seems to want to play out from the back. One of his first signings was De Vries whom he saw as a ball playing "sweeper" keeper. None look comfortable with ball at feet under pressure. They look even more suspect this season with Brown now half a yard off the pace. They are getting away with it at the minute because they have relative quality in the final third. As said, if you sit back and invite them on they have the quality to nick a goal or two. Rogers now seems to be in a position where he is unsure of the style of football he wants/has the players to play. He doesn't have the quality to do what he started off doing. He either does not possess the tactical nous or is too arrogant in his selections to beat teams at their own game and/or set up to make effective changes if teams do surprise him tactically. You could see in our game we initially set up to play as we did in the cup final, which he was expecting, hence the first goal. McInnes then changed it, but because they hadn't shoe horned McGregor in at LB he was able to make effective changes. Perhaps he thought his masterstroke in our game was just the Hayes for Izzaguirre, and he thought if he swapped Ralston for Lustig it would have a similar effect, I dunno. I think it shows that Rogers got lucky in our game and perhaps was too arrogant in his team selection against the huns. If we set up properly we can beat them, I think McInnes has the ability to out think Rogers. But, as you say, does he have the bottle or confidence/trust in himself and his own players to take the game to them and do so?
