Accies being humped by McGlynn's bairns. 0-3 half time, and very lucky to still have eleven on the park.

This isn't the right thread! Finished 1-3. Accies providing a masterclass in spreading around the bookings. Not sure how they finished with eleven.

No clue if he’s any good but we paid decent money for Richardson, Morris, and I believe Ambrose, and currently have 33yr old sivert on a 3 year deal. To each their own!!

[RicoS321]

He used to be good. No idea if that's still the case.

Funny if true, but think that one has potentially been rubbished although allegedly he does have other offers to return to the UK.

Thinks not going well for him in Italy with his club second bottom of the third level of Italian football.

Exactly what a few said in pub pregame about him going there.

There's no evidence that plastic pitches are worse for injury than grass. Would be fitting if McInnes resurrected his career and bagged us a few million sell on.

[Jute]

There are studies in the U.S. that now suggest that artificial surfaces can lead to more non contact knee and ankle injuries. There are also a couple that suggest injury recovery time is longer on artificial surfaces as well.

I'll stand corrected if I am wrong but I don't think Ramsay played under McInnes at Aberdeen.

Think he might have made his first top team appearance after McInnes was punted

Pretty sure McInnes gave him his debut in Scottish Cup against Dumbarton just before he was sacked.

That's the wrong type of fitba. Non-yank studies show opposite results:

Proper fitba

Although I think there's no significant differences either way. Badly maintained AG pitches are likely worse, but then a heavy grass pitch would likely be terrible on the hamstrings too.

The old grey matter isn't completely fucked yet.

Ramsay didn't play under McInnes for Aberdeen

He made his debut as a sub in March 2021 when he came on a substitute. Hegarty was caretaker manager.

He subsequently got his first start on the cup away to Dumbarton under the management of Stephen Glass.
