To be honest, it seems like another case of a lad with a pushy agent, being punted across the UK. I'm assuming he's over here on a study visa or some such? I doubt Tayport would have got international clearance otherwise! Good luck to him, must be difficult for a young goalie in a foreign country, and more so given the route he appears to have taken. I suspect he'll face a lot of rejection on his path if he does every make it.

Then you'll surely have immediately put the money on him being second goalscorer?

I've seen them do it once or twice before, when they are highlighting a particular player and showing several of their opportunities, some of which might not have made the cut, but never seen it when discussing a whole team's performance. When you saw some of the chances shown from other games too, it just adds to the evidence that it was a poor edit. In fairness, it's a very tight turnaround to get a pigeon with a VHS strapped to it to Glasgow for 19:15.

Would be a great signing, especially if we finished third. However, I'm not actually sure what we're looking for in a number ten either. Are we looking for a McGrath replacement, or someone who can improve on the role that Gueye is performing? One of each?

Aye, I think something went wrong with the editing there. They even showed a previously unseen highlight where Bushiri blocked two shots in a row in the post-highlights piece, which was easily as relevant as any of the highlights shown. Peter Grant is a simpering imbecile. Barely literate fuckwit. He was there to fulfil the need to have a "Celtic man" on the show. In fairness, finding a literate one would have been extremely difficult.

You only got 40/1? That's wild. I'd have Aberdeen at 40/1 now they're in the final.

Hilarious. Who the fuck listened to that man and thought "he's a manager"? In Scotland? Fucking hell.

Also, great to see Nisbet properly celebrate against his former club. None of that faux apologetic shite* that the modern lads do these days. Beautiful finish like. *I expect that cunt McGrath to jog back to halfway, with one hand raised apologetically when he scores against us next season.

Great result, and a dominant performance against a Hibs team that came to sit in and keep it tight. To the extent that they were slowing everything down from early on. We were solid at the back throughout, especially Knoester (MOTM), who is a fantastic signing. Dorrington and Shinnie also solid and Jensen was fine. Nisbet really good and Keskinen worked hard, with Okkels doing well when he came on. Morris worked hard but didn't do much, whereas Gueye didn't do much and also didn't work hard. That position is a real issue, and I think he might be tempted to go with McGrath there, which is a shame as the idea behind Gueye being there is solid. Clarkson very good in midfield again, and once again Palaversa didn't come out in the second half and didn't really do much in the first either. That leaves Polvara, who was miles better than Palaversa when he came on, and has to start the next match. He was strong and direct and used the ball really well. Maybe we're easing him in for him to explode onto the scene at the final. Well done the Dons though, and well done Thelin. We were patient and that sets us up nicely for the remaining four games. Utd will struggle to make up the points I'd think.

I disagree with Jensen further forward. He hasn't taken a player on for us once. That's why he's a fullback, to give him that space to play in. Further forward, he'd just be reaching their fullback, turning and going back the way. I wouldn't rule it out against a good team away, when we needed to defend, but not the way I'd set up against Hibs at home. Agree with Polvara and Milne though, although it would be harsh on Dorrington. I suspect we'll see Dorrington today and, depending on results, perhaps Milne in the next couple.

Partick beat Falkirk in the seventh minute of injury time. Are Falkirk going to give us the bottle job of the century?

I notice that you didn't even attempt to tackle the problem of Dabbagh's footedness.

I find it's more fun to work it out when they get here. It's amazing how long it can take. Can anyone tell which foot Dabbagh prefers? I still can't. Hopefully we've used the data gathered on McGarry to feed back into our system to get an idea on how good this guy could be. Should be infallible. Like when we fed the data from Miovski and Ramadani back in and out popped Ambrose.

I'm guessing it wouldn't have included his booking either, because that wasn't given as a foul. The most telling aspect was that the player himself knew he was getting booked. He was doing that pretending to be injured shite, whilst sneakily glancing up at the ref. When he saw Beaton just standing there ready to book him, he just got up. The worst part about Hearts' statement is the petty dig at the Dons, with the 118th minute shit.

Season ticket renewals must be slow
