Shame, didn't work out for us. Some nice fitba, and completely dominated them for most of the game. Subs didn't work out, not convinced at all by Edmondson and Wright's movement way better than his or Watkins. Missed Cosgrove, but I don't think him and Watkins up front will be the answer either, as I think you need that movement of Wright or Hedges between midfield and forward line. Again, massively better than last season. McLennan had a very good first half.

Good stuff. Nae Cosgrove yet, thought he might have made the bench. Fa's Ngwenya?

He looked decent. It was good to see our cup final opponents in action. Should beat them.

Youthful looking Dundee midfield, I'm surprised they're not covering more ground. Some goal fae Adam, been shite otherwise and about a stone overweight. And a fucking Hun, of course.

A good summation, totally agree. Especially the last bit. Since Strachan left, there seems to be a concerted effort to get Scottish based players involved. I wonder if they recognise that folk were losing interest in the Scottish granny championship no marks were getting a bit tiring. Good to see. The nation's league actually seems to have helped us in that regard. Also, it's good to see at least one or two stepping up directly from the u21s. It's never really been a route to the first team in the past.

Never an accident, just a little petulant. You could tell by his reaction. Yellow card correct though, as he didn't put his weight on the boy. It wasn't dangerous.

McLennan makes it six

Nae Ferguson? McInnes taken him back to keep him away from any Tims in case he catches the covaids?

How many top talents have we actually lost though? Fraser, maybe grimmer? We didn't lose Jack, he played for us a long time. Our youth has done okay, not great. It's got a fairly high wastage. We seem to have a poor conversion rate on some fairly promising talent. It's definitely not been a success under McInnes.

Fucking ace. Definitely watching now. If he doesn't score at least two we should probably drop him.

Nonsense. We need to be cashing in on prospects like Considine. A couple of goals and we could be looking at another £6 or 7 million added to his value.

Yasssssssssssssssssssss, Andy. I'm heading down to Hampden to sit outside with a candle. Best defender in the world. In your face, McKenna.

Yes it is your right. I'm not questioning your right, just asking for explanation of your position. There was no comparison to Rolf Harris, that was an example for illustration of the point, not a comparison. There was no conflation either, just to clarify. Although comparison is not the same as conflation either, which seems to be missed in modern day debate. I'll use another example if it helps: if I were to have punched Tony Blair, I probably wouldn't be that remorseful, but would understand....etc. The point is that you stated that Gallagher was not remorseful, and I'm interested to know how you know that to be the case, and why you think that is? From the pish in the press at the time, the judge said that he believeed it was out of character for Gallagher, which suggests that Gallagher would likely be quite remorseful if it was yer everyday drunken scrap that got out of hand and he lost it, or he was young/stupid/naive or whatever. The fact that you state that he isn't remorseful means that he thinks the guy did something fairly substantial to have merited it (rightly or wrongly) and that he'd do the same thing again. As I say, I can't really see enough in the newspaper reports to guage it, but you seem to have a fairly good grasp of it, which is why I'm curious (I'm definitely not doubting you). The remorse thing is fairly key, you're right, it says a lot about the guy. That's why I asked your thoughts on Goodwillie. I could think of reasons why Gallagher might have done what he did (although I wouldn't, obviously), but none that mitigate Goodwillie's actions as laid out in the civil case. I certainly widnae be paying £500K for a 30 year old though Tup.

He's done his time. It seemed to be an isolated incident. I don't know the facts, but I don't necessarily think that not showing remorse is a sign of a bad person in anyway. For example, if I punched Rolf Harris, I probably wouldn't be that remorseful, but I would understand why it would be assault and expect to be punished for that. Out of interest, we're a club that gave a home to Goodwillie who didn't serve time for the acts described in his civil case. Were you okay with that at the time?

We'll likely lose, but it's job done. The manager's role is to set the team up to always be one game away. Glorious failure is the name of the game.

Aye, McLean a good penalty taker for the dons. We'll take it like. Fraser looked good when he came on. Serbs will be an interesting game. Gallagher very good tonight it has to be said.

Niall slams one in for the norn.

Terrible stuff like. How the fuck Clarke took 73 minutes to make a fucking sub is a mystery. We deserved to lose a goal based on that. Jack looked pish. Mcburnie pish.

Should have signed a two year and got us a fee in the summer for looking after him. Obviously, if he was shite, we'd have hooked him.

Forgot about O'Donnell of course.

Definitely. Better than some of the other pish. It's really the right side that we're struggling for though. We don't have a right back, which is bizarre, but I'm guessing we'll go for a back three. In which case, I'm surprised that Kerr at St Johnstone hasn't been given a shout. Gallagher isn't having a great season by all accounts, I'd have thought Kerr would be that little bit better. If we quickly sign Hoban on a 6 year deal with citizenship thrown in, we could be onto something.

I think that's a very simple view. I would also argue that anyone voting for Biden is an imbecile. But then that has to be weighed against the perceived "shame" of not voting at all, which would be my position if I were in the US. Anyone who votes in that American electoral system is validating an anti-democratic sham. Whether Trump's speech had a touch of Idi Amin about it or not is largely irrelevant. In four years he's been largely - not completely - curtailed in anything he's tried to do that could be described as dangerous or pyschopathic. He's mainly held back by his own incompetence and lack of attention span. I don't see that changing with age. He's no Hitler, he doesn't have the ability. He's not even Steve Bannon. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that he's just a distraction that draws people into the minutae of his every utterance and throws up fake culture wars and arguments that take attention from the real issues.

Just those three, but I'm guessing all Tims will be removed ahead of the most important game in the world the following weekend as a precautionary measure.

Dropping like flies with the covaids.

I was on my laptop. I just didn't think that they had any detail at all on the BBC website. When you go into Scottish football home page, it was just the Scotland game. Going on now, I noticed that you can now get to the Scottish League Cup page from a link under the article about Hamilton getting beaten. I didn't spot it. I find the BBC pages really unintuitive. Especially now that they've replaced the Scottish Premier League page with linked images only instead of having the league table and so on. I'll just have to go to the Scottish Football home page now I suppose, which is fine, but obviously at the moment it's riddled with the Scotland game stuff (which is also fine). My original point about the league cup stands though, there's nowhere on the BBC website showing the scorers and only one article covering the results from last night. You can't click on any game in the link below to see a report or even scorers. That's fairly tragic. BBC League Cup coverage
