Jute

I have train tickets but didn’t buy a match ticket. Might just head up and sit in pub. 

He built a good Sunderland side before taking on the basket case that is Stoke. I think he would be good choice if we do need to make a change.

Actually probably scrap that.

Only joined them in August this year and is on a two year contract.

Still worth asking what they are wanting for him. Looked a good player.

Alex Neil sacked by Stoke City.
 

Another set piece another free header and we are 1-0 down. 

Seems to be totally fixated on 3-5-2. No idea why he decides to play Devlin as one of centre backs when we have 3.

I did. Managed to get 'fans first' prices for all three.

Cost me €110, my mate went on the next day and it cost him €700 for the three games. Another mate on 10 points could only get €600 tickets for Germany today.

The pricing is mental so feeling very lucky I've not been stung too much. 

I got same deal as you for games but wife missed out as on 10 points. Got accommodation sorted for last two matches but still to sort first game.

I've had far too many texts from my jambo mates pretending they actually think that their dismal run at Pittodrie will continue - will be raging if we lose our record but after watching the Killie shambles I'm quite fearful we will!!

Do not want see Hayes in the starting line-up - do want to see Barron 

 

I would say Hayes and Barron play different positions. I expect McGarry to come in for Hayes today. Barron should be coming in for one of Clarkson or McGrath but don’t think he will play.

The general feeling from those that know him is he has no interest in managing in Scotland again.

Might depend on what his offers in England are I suppose (he's 60 now) but appears the challenge of getting a Championship team to the Premier League then testing himself against the best trump anything we can offer him. And his stock is still relatively high down there as many feel he was emptied from Sunderland a bit early, he'll be back in a job after Christmas.

Suspect you are right but still worth sounding him out as he might see getting us into Europe and then group football as a similar level of challenge. He is not going to get a team in England that will offer European football. 

Really have to start winning as cannot afford to go any further behind Hearts. Very difficult to see us making up 13 points on Hearts if we lose. Also need to start getting away from the bottom of the table. Barron has to start in midfield as we look a better team when he plays. Would also have Sokler back to partner Miovski. However have no idea what Robson to do other than bring back McGarry for Hayes. Hearts looked decent against Tribute Act mid week and expect this to be a difficult game. 
 

Oot.

Would be sounding out Tony Mowbray meantime..

Was just coming on to say this. His Sunderland team played decent football. Can’t see him being the type of manager for Cormack though. 

Alarming thing about tonight was players looked like they had no fight in them. Very reminiscent of end of Goodwin’s time. Club won’t sack him yet though so think this will go on for a while yet. 

Well that was shite. Don’t think I have watched as bad a 45 this season with both sides very poor. 

Lazy bastards not know how to copy and paste. I had to look this up myself.

No problem with who’s been dropped but a bit surprised there’s no place for Barron. 

I think as long as lessons are learned for future then this probably has been worth while. We now know we need to have a big enough and balanced squad to be able to rotate the team in games after Euro game. Money earned by club also helps.

I'm guessing they're hoping for a similar result to the last one.

Probably however they better not fucking get it. 

Starting to get into must win territory now. I would like to see us going a back 4. With Jensen going to left back and McDonald in the middle with Rubi. Just think we need to try something different defensively. If we are sticking with a back 3 would want to see Barron coming In for Clarkson or McGrath as he will offer more protection to back 3. Morris better be nowhere near the team. 

Killie have only won 1 out of 5 since they beat us and only scored 2 goals. They should be a team we are looking to beat especially at home. 
 

Oot - fucking work again

Work

Hopefully finished in time to get stream

Flat

2-0 Sokler and Miovski

Now now, you can get away with one BBC quip every 12 months. You've used up your quota until next year.

Read your licence fee terms and conditions.

When did they put that in. Sneaky bastards. 
 

In fairness BBC are not in the same league as Sky Sports when it comes to fuck ups on their graphics.

Hold on, might be a change to the schedule for Wednesday 

Sky subcontracting work to BBC now?

TV games announced.

Already commented about our game being moved elsewhere but as well as our game having Buckie travel to Parkhead on Sunday at 4pm is a joke. 

Scottish cup game agains Clyde moved to Friday night. 
 

Surely a local derby was better choice for Friday night game. 

Tony Mowbray sacked by Sunderland which is surprising. 
 

Not sure what they are expecting. Currently 9th only 3 points off the play off places and after club sold their main striker. Does not seem to have gone down well with their fans. 

The jump in price from fans first category and category 3 for opening game is outrageous. Won’t be paying €190 if I can’t get a Fans First one.
