Very pleased for him. Was a bit hot and cold over the season (what was played) but by and large is a highly talented player. How long is he signed up for?

I'd like to say I was surprised to hear of it, but the sad thing is, I don't expect anything less from the USA. It's tragic. They were supposed to be a beacon of democracy and the free world. It's only free if you're white. Id love to see a serious revolution there, but it won't happen. Too many people happy with their lot. It's ridiculous how many offences that prick had prior to being caught with this latest murder. Thank fuck it was filmed. Although what I don't get is, why the other three involved weren't arrested and tried either. Of course I know the answer, but i'm amazed the photo hasn't be more widely circulated. At least two of the others are equally as culpable.

Hope folk are staying safe. We've only got one active case in NZ, but certainly have the fear that there are the unknowns around here. Talk of opening borders to the convicts too. Not sure I'm overly keen just yet, should be the pacific islands first where they've actually covid clear.

Released from the dhimmery today. Lots of calls from folk on social media to re-sign him. Big no from me imo. Past it, and I don't want to ruin our memory of his first time here. Certainly not on the wing. He won't have the legs anymore.

A lot of what he says is true. We all know that there are too many pro clubs in Scotland. A lot of them are well run mind, but something needs to change. Easy for me to say, given that our club isn't one that really needs to change. Although his use of county was out of order. Great professional community club. They have had a well run academy.

Want an independent inquiry into this. Not satisfied with the result!

Both kits are honking imo. I know what they were trying to do with the home kit, but it's failed. Collar is too big and the strip on the arm is far too big. Just looks weird. We usually get one dud kit every now and then but to have two is seriously disappointing. Do they ever talk to anyone about these before committing to them?

What a shite state of affairs. I wish i could see something positive coming out of this negligence in the UK, but can't see anyone (who should be) being held to account. We're gradually moving down our levels, hoping to go down to level 2 next week. What this has shown is that National (tories over here) are self righteous cunts and hopefully will get an absolute arse battering in the up coming election. Barring any stupidity from the coalition, this should be fine. The tories wanted us to put economy first. Completely forgetting that without people, you don't have an economy. Anyway, we're now talking of opening a Trans-tasman bubble (hi Scotfree ) but it'll be interesting to see how this will work. Aussie are still getting new cases, so I doubt it'll be any time soon, but they were talking of treating it as a "domestic" route. Aussies finally becoming part of NZ

We've been using the shakti mats for about two years (on and off). I find it so therapeutic, haven't done it for more than 30 mins but I could see it easily being done

Watched last dance on netflix, excellent behind the scenes views of the bulls during the Johnson era. Well worth a watch

Surely to be become NI manager soon enough

Can see where this is going

Pm here announced that we’re going to be going down from full lockdown to something closer to that of the uk. The right here have been pathetically embarrassing. A few of them getting it wouldn’t go amiss. Truly, a lot of them have sad , fat middle aged man syndrome. Anyway. Well still all be wfh, albeit I’ve been furloughed without the guarantee of a job at the end of it. Really need to hope clients regain their confidence in construction. It’s shite timing.

Happen to watch most of his press conferences at the mo, and yesterday's was hilarious. Couldn't handle getting proper questions from the journalists. It's either a corporate bum fest or deflection of hunnish proportions. Sooner he get's dealt the sharp end of karma, the better.

Been meaning to watch the first. Have only started Sunderland till I die ( have to watch when the wife is having a nap ). Just finished the third season of Ozark. Excellent.

Apparently the yanks approval rating for drumpf is increasing

I see a lot of fans doing it, despite their own finances being tough. Good on them. But what does the footballing landscape at the club look like next season? I like what i've seen from Cormack so far and seems to have quite a hands on role at the club, moreso than Milne appeared to take.

10 mins from the nurses station? That's fucking awful, who were the architects for that, is that the super campus? Not really followed much of the architecture back home for a while. Both architects and clients should hang their heads in shame. Although having worked in mental health care design, i'm surprised there were allowed to do that? Usually processes in place to make sure it's all quite logical. My wife was surprised by my lack of enthusiasm for the "NHS clap". But she's not as cynical as I, but I found the whole thing cringe and a massive piece of political shite. We had our first Corona related death today. Really hope we didn't close our borders too late. Vast majority of cases are still related to international travel.

Vernon in the end suffered from shite service, if memory served me correctly. Was ok, scored some decent goals but then missed chances he really should have buried. No where near the execution rate of Rooney's but a likeable guy. Certainly didn't fit DM's set up.

So NZ are going into full lock down as of tonight. I have to say, i've been thoroughly impressed with how the government has acted throughout the process and keeping the public informed, once shit got real. They've introduced a four level system, of which we will be reaching level 4 of tonight. "unprecedented" which appears to be the word du jour, as nothing like this has ever been introduced in NZ before. The PM has been very honest and reassuring, but not mincing about the facts. We all know that it's going to get worse, there could be deaths (please be some of the nats if it's necessary). Emphasising staying at home and self isolating. They also have countless adds on TV / and used their mobile alert system to keep folk aware. You can't really miss it unless you try. We were at level 2 on the weekend, which encouraged working from home, where possible and then social distancing. That changed as of Monday when we got our first community transitioned cases. Supermarkets and pharmacies are open. Pubs, bars , take aways, restaurants etc all closed. Parks all closed, no domestic travel unless necessary. Walks / exercise are all good, but keep your two metres. We've got four weeks of this, it's gonna be long and fuck knows what happens after this.

We can but hope that this sends the huns to the wall, like their predecessors.

She's an absolute cunt of a "journalist". Nothing but a pawn in the tory machine.

Heard about that yesterday , hard to believe, but then again I don’t trust the yanks as far as I could throw them. Nz has become the tightest in terms of their border control. All those entering from outside Nz (pacific island excluded) will have to self quarantine for 14 days . Starting tomorrow.

As they say, lucky for some. Hopefully it's us! Form wise, not much separates us, but the last two trips down there have resulted in 3-0 victories, one for us and one for them. So who knows how this one goes. Play like we did in the second half against hibs and we should be fine, but play like the first and we're fucked. In / out: Out Bed Feeding time Probably still doing the above 2-2, Main and Ferguson
