Looks like Killie's home form in the SPL continues.

 

Couldn't happen to a better group of cunts. 

 

45:11 GOAL - Richard Offiong

Kilmarnock 0 - Hamilton 1

 

Tousy first half, 5 bookings!

We need them to fill out stadiums for us

 

You know those min 100006000 seaters which are always sold out when they come to play

 

Just a wee side note

So far this season the highest home attendances at 3 of 12 SPL clubs have been non old firm games

 

Hearts - Hibs

Hibs - Hearts

Dundee United - Aberdeen

 

St Johnstones highest attendance was 6759 (vs Celtic) - 3914 empty seats

Kilmarnocks highest attendance was 9506 (Vs Rangers) - 8622 empty seats.

 

Saints are apparenlty demolishing one of their stands for a new road. I predict Kilmarnock and other clubs may start down similar avenues pretty soon

 

With regards to the killie fans at the cup final there are many folk who will not go to matches involving either of the old firm. In particular they are reluctant to take their kids because of the unsavoury element of their own teams fans that come out for them.

Dundee United had nearly 30000 fans for 2010 final. Had it been against celtic instead of ross county they would have only been given a max 18000 and I reckon they would have struggled to sell 15000. A reduction in the glory hunting element would have accounted for some of that but also the reluctance to come to Hampden to play a local team

Agree with this. A LOT

 

 

I believe that since the fuss we made in 2000 every club has the opportunity to sell 50% of the Cup Final tickets if they want, so in theory United could have had a 50/50 split with celtic if they believed they could sell all their tickets.

 

The rest is spot on.

Actually I believ the SFA were sneaky about that.

To start with it is declared as a 50-50 split but they give out 'initial' allocations to each club.

Celtic or rangers initial allocations are approx 24000.

Other clubs are initially given say 12000 and then have to go back and ask for more in 3000 blocks. If you havent reached your 24000 within a certain time (say 2 weeks before the final) they say 'tough you had yer chance' and had the rest over to OF. So whilst you might not get 24000 you could probably get pretty close too it if you could sell your allocatiion right up until the last day

Yeah I may have heard that somewhere before too. Sneaky cunts.

Well that is County up for sure now

 

    Falkirk 0 - 2 Morton FT

    Hamilton 3 - 1 Dundee FT

 

 

And how about this for a score?  Went 1-0. 1-3, 3-3 then finished Leeds 3 - 7 Forest 

If results go their way I believe they can win the league at Livingston a week on saturday

Real Madrid drew again last night. This time 1-1 with Villareal and two players sent off. Can here their bottle crashing from here. Gap could be down to 3 points by the time they play on Saturday evening.

Torres (3 in 36) Carroll (5 in 31) Suarez (10 in 36) have scored as many goals in combined 103 league games as Messi has in his last 7 games. some stat

Liverpool 1 - 2 Wigan. Luckily I knew that would happen and put a fiver on Wigan at 11 to 1.

Oh, so we're allowed to mention Liverpool getting pumped if you've made money off it...?

 

Anyone else watching the Man United - Fulham game? Sounds like there are some Wisla Krakow fans there, but I can't really tell. Some of the songs being sung are certainly not British football songs anyway.

Half watching it, not really paid attention to any of the singing though.

I still can't tell, maybe the Stretford end have a new repertoire

The only Euro league that seems beyond reproach in this context seems, in everything i know about it anyway,  to be the bundesliga.

probably right. there's been suggestions for a while now that the english league is as riddled with corruption as any out there. not surprising really given the financial value of the league.

Why would you not be "allowed" to speak about Liverpool getting pumped? My issue was with non footballing matters being magnified in a thread that's about fitba.

"Credit to Liverpool, they didn't just come to make up the numbers" - Wigan manager Roberto Martinez feels moved to congratulate his defeated opponents for their pluck - at Anfield.

 

Aye I've always liked Martinez.
