What's the deal with jenson button coming back in to race instead of alonso? I know he's racing the indi 500, but why?

What's everybody got planned this long weekend? Málaga cooking up another feast? My folks are arriving today so need to make sure the house is in tip top shape. Hopefully catch some football too but hard to see when that'll happen.

I like O'Connor but I wouldn't say he's got a cool head in the big situations, you could see on a number of occasions in the final and on Sunday where he shat it. He didn't look calm at all, very nervy.

It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if it was true. He's probably the type of player they need.

I see Reynolds is back in the frame, would you risk him ahead of Taylor? Would allow AOC to move back into position and keep Consi and Shinnie where they are.

Nice one OD, jeez... It's the joys of scottish football, there's always something nonsensical about it.

Surprised they didn't make us play sevco first

Really still trying to get over the pain of last Sunday, I sure hope the team are doing a better job of it than I am. A win is absolutely crucial, cannot afford to let the hunnery get much closer. I've heard some folk say yes it's 9 points we're still going to get 2nd. We better, but we've turned over that points difference before. It is all down to bottle now. We have the team to do it, they just need to apply themselves and not fuck about for 5-10 mins like they did last week. Get back to basics, play to our strengths and we will be fine. Out Out with the dog Home, listening online if possible Sisters flat for dinner 1-1, Consi

Taylor is definitely a big part of the problem, but i'm sure everyone can agree on that one. Possibly a game where Shinnie should have been played at Left back to allow Consi alongside O'Connor? But not sure who'd really step up in the middle of the park.

O'Connor, I've heard a lot about him being "played out of position" as he's a holding midfielder and that's where he should be played. I have to say I completely disagree. I've thought he's been shite in midfield when he did play there, for a start he's far too slow. That's two big games he's fucked up, do we have to look to replace him in the summer?

I see Spanish police were at it again last night

Sounds like they think it may be far right extremists. Apparently they've been dogged by it recently. Nice touch from the club and locals offering beds for the away fans.

Only 11,500 tickets sold so far

Anyone else find it odd that it's Shinnie coming out doing the fighting talk and not our captain post disaster? I'm guessing it probably speaks volumes about his intentions. Whether he stays or goes, his form as been awesome for the past 5 months.

Not a great couple of days for my household. My sister is a massive gooner, lives around the corner from selhurst park now

Happy belated, Al and happy birthday Nips. Some pretty hard to view analysis by @jj_bull on twitter. Can't bring myself to watch the lowlights just yet.

That is a truly awful stat.

I couldn't believe he didn't have a go. He was clear favorite. We were so unbelievably hesitant in front of goal it was ridiculous. Laughing stock of scotland at the mo. This is really a sore one to take, every single one of them needs to have a look at themselves.

St johnstone game is massive now. Absolute must win. Someone said jack was arguing with O'Connor just before the goal, anyone know why? I'm still having trouble come to terms with that result. Still in shock.

That is fucking awful. I'm genuinely in shock. That wasn't the game I was watching until my stream cut out. Thank fuck I couldn't get it working again. We shouldn't be getting beat 3-0 by anyone at home, least of all them.

2-0?!?!?! What in the actual fuck?

Stream went down now I see they've scored, wtf?!?

Agreed, not working out for him

Good old sky, ignoring the drink thrown at McGinn... Much better so far, need to make it count

O'Connor started well but now looks nervous as fuck.
