I see Gary Teale has sour grapes about McLean joining us. Nice rebuttal from TD though, says he's very much in the Ryan Jack frame of mind and clearly has a plan.

Was surprised by that myself! I think he'll do quite well at Hibs. Going by the highlights, it looked like the huns weren't that bad and actually unlucky not to have a penalty

I see this morning that the Spanish La Liga president is worried about losing the stars to the EPL in the very near future due to the financial muscle the teams will have over the Spanish. I think you make a very good point and something i've spoken to a few people about. Truly world class players very rarely go to or stay in the EPL. I mean, most recently you can look at Suarez (who I love to hate), arguably a world class striker and manufactured his move away to Spain. I'd probably only put, Aguero, Silva, Sanchez, De Gea and possibly Yaya Toure in the world class bracket. And yet none of them would compare to those who graced the list you made. How Sky / BT can justify paying so much is beyond me, because the product is not always going to be like your Liverpool - Spurs game which they so love to quote. Will seriously consider dropping my SS package, primarily because I get BT sport free anyway and their Scottish football coverage and even EPL coverage is vastly superior to the "theatre" of SS. Annoyingly, I can't get Virgin in my area.

Sounds promising

Yeah but they only lost 2-0 to Celtic etc....I cant believe those odds!

Aye, I know, I'm more annoyed since I didn't get a ticket! Will try and sort one out.

Looks like we're giving trial to Arbroath's Mark Whatley, brought to Gayfield by Sheerin when he was manager there. Anyone know much about him?

Denied the club an increase to our 1800 allocation for parkhead today

My housemate has always thought that Villa deserve to get relegated, if only to teach them a lesson. Potentially a massive club but if they weren't there, I doubt you'd notice. Shame because villa parks supposedly a very nice ground.

Lambert sacked this evening. Hardly surprising.

Indeed! Absolutely disgusting amounts. Surely to fuck they will now start reducing ticket prices?!? It's the only way to even make it remotely understandable. Though I doubt anything of the sort will happen.

nothing to see here, move along

Ha ha thanks for the tips guys...

Sky and BT have agreed to pay £5.1 BILLION for tv rights to show the EPL for three season as of 2016/2017 season. That's absolutely mental!?! Also, says it all that they premier league are only investing £57 million into grass roots football. No wonder it's on the decline in England. Sky got 5/7 packages.

Pow! http://gfycat.com/BlackPaltryAfricangoldencat

It's clear that they've had a bigger wobble than we have after they've lost their manager and best striker and then released the second best striker as well. But i'd still be wary about playing them. I definitely think we should be winning this and last weekend showed what the team can do. Hopefully the semi final loss was the kick up the arse they needed after toiling for a few weeks. Anyway: Out Eating kiwi food apparently Hopefully watching it at the flat More Kiwi food 3-1 Dons, Rooney, McGinn and Jack. I have to say, from watching the highlights on RedTv, I thought Smith played well? But there were a lot of negative comments about him elsewhere. I'd be tempted to start with the same team and then change it up again. Peepaw looked much better coming off the bench with a point to prove.

Having watched the full highlights on RedTV, it was very convincing win. I've always thought 5 was a hammering, 4 is a pumping Some of the play was brilliant and what I did see of McLean, he looked tidy in possession and didn't give much away. Glad to hear Daniels injury isn't as bad as first thought.

Never return to base, continue your kamikaze mission

Have to say i'm with you on this one. Didn't think he came across too bad when he was in charge there.

Some of that play was a joy to watch! The final three goals were absolute beauts! Great reaction after last weekend, need to continue and start another run.

Agreed, I don't think we'll ever hammer someone.

Both peepaw and goodie drop to the bench for this one: Brown, Logan, Daniels, Reynolds, Considine, Jack, Smith, McGinn, McLean, Hayes, Rooney.

I'd agree with that, though it would mean i'd have to adjust my goal scorer I'm intrigued to see what McLean can do.

Obviously last weekend can be added to the games we will not speak of at the hateful venue. Hopefully the team can pick themselves up and get our season back on track. We've now not got any distractions so there are no excuses. County have made a number of signings during the window so it will be interesting to see if any of them make much of a difference. Out Flat Hopefully listening online Mates wedding 2-0 Dons, Goodwillie and Logan
