  2. What the f**k am I reading from some Dees recently? If we'd finished 10th last season we'd have been more than happy with our current position, but because we just finished 6th we should be pushing on for Europe? Stop having unrealistic expectations and remember where we've been languishing in our recent history FFS.

  3. I was watching this with my kids, and when Clara took on the tattoo I mumbled "well, she'll be brown bread soon enough". I knew this was her last episode. Then comes the emotional bit - where all of you got to feel sad and cried. This was denied to me by my 5 year old daughter asking loudly "When is she turning in to a slice of brown bread?" Wee soul had been sitting, watching, waiting for that to happen.

  6. So we're watching the news tonight and the story comes on about the trial of four guys involved in the Hatton Garden Heist. The reporter starts telling us about the plot over Easter weekend and how they drilled through a concrete wall with machinery unloaded from a van. Up pipes the voice from the other couch to sagely point out in all seriousness "They had that planned you know". Really? I though they just spent some time finding a parking space for their van and then on coincidentally finding one next to the Hatten Garden Safety Deposit Vault figured they might as well test the equipment they just happened to have with them. After that the loot just practically jumped into their pockets accidentally. Now you mention it though they may just have had it planned in advance. If anyone has contact details for the Crown Prosecutor could they suggest it to him maybe? It was about ten minutes before I stopped laughing!

  15. Exactly. Our aim is to stay in this league. Anything else is a bonus.

  16. ^^^^This boy kens. We need a few seasons at this level, establish ourselves then look to kick on when we are stable - next season (if we stay up...) will be a very tough top flight and I wouldn't be surprised to see us float around 8th - 10th all season depending on promotion and how other teams recruit etc - some of our fans could be at serious risk of aneurism.

  18. It was a group representing selkirk fc so no amount of excuses can be used here. If selkirk were struggling they could have pulled out of the competition at the start citing not having a team. This is far worse than the slight loss of face from pulling out the competition

  25. Like I've said before - forget any games from last season - our last 10 or 11 were against the fellow top 6 sides who were all miles ahead of us last season, plus there were 5 or 6 dead rubbers in there. Focus on this season and the form isn't too bad. It's not great, it's mid-table form, and that's probably our natural level at the moment. Ross County have been getting excellent press for their good start to the season and are just 2 points ahead of us. If we are talking about Hartley being in trouble why are we not talking about Yogi's job? He has taken a team from 3rd place down to the bottom half, replacing competent players with Dani Lopez and Mutumbo. We aren't talking about his job as he is living off last seasons achievements and do so would be ridiculous - please apply the same level of common sense to Paul Hartley before posting in future. He overachieved last season and has improved our squad this season. Dundee fans are disappointed at our style of football and the manner of some of our performances but no-one with a modicum of common sense is calling for Hartleys head at the moment.

  27. I don't think they are turning against him, but there is only so much dross and cheaply-surrendered goals that folk will put up with. All people want to see is Sons compete in most games, that's not a huge ask. It has to be remembered that although Stevie Aitken was the guy everyone, myself included, wanted, he's had a considerable budget in comparison with other recent managers here. On the evidence so far neither he or we are seeing much of a return on it.

  28. So bambino's wife claims she's on the pill, still gets pregnant, then claims she nearly died from an abortion before, hence they have to have the baby, an unexpected and unwanted event from bambino's point-of-view, most notably that he wanted to give as much love and attention to their first kid who only recently arrived. Yet somehow this instantly makes him a 'selfish w****r' and such. What the fcuk, P&B.

  32. With our recent downturn in form, I thought it'd be interesting to examine the extent to which we really do collapse when the clocks go back. I've only included league games, and I've went back to season 2011/12, in other words the season after the last time we finished above sixth. The figures don't make pleasant reading. Overall, the record is.. Played: 79 Won: 18 Drawn: 22 Lost: 39 Essentially we've lost half of all league games during winter, and of the half we haven't lost, we draw more than we win. To break that into managers, the record is: John McGlynn: Played 20, Won 4, Drew 7, Lost 9. Grant Murray: Played 56 , Won 14, Drew 14, Lost 28 Ray McKinnon: Played 3, Won 0, Drew 1, Lost 2 Grant Murray, with a 25% win ratio, is the clear winner! Special mention to the 13/14 season, where we won four from 21 matches through the winter, having topped the table UNBEATEN on the fateful day itself in October. Astounding. In this period, astonishingly we have won just five from 41 away matches. That is absolutely incredible. Hats off to anyone lucky enough to witness all five, which were.. Partick 0-1 Raith (Baird), Dec 2011 Airdrie 1-2 Raith (Spence, Anderson) March 2013 Falkirk 0-1 Raith (Conroy), Dec 2014 Cowdenbeath 0-1 Raith (Nade), Jan 2015 Livingston 0-2 Raith (Callachan, Vaughan), Feb 2015 Interesting that three came last season - Grant Murray had won once away from home in two winters beforehand. Getting a full breakdown of our record before and after the clocks go back is something I can't be bothered going back to do, but we've amassed 197 points over the time frame and played 148 games, so doing the maths it's easy to see that, in British Summer Time, we've won 121 points from 69 matches. So overall, our record is.. 121 points from 69 games (British Summer Time) 76 points from 79 games (Daylight Saving Time) Not a figment of the imagination, then. The BST figure represents just under two seasons worth of matches, and if we'd finished the last two seasons with 60 points or more, we'd have finished fourth on both occasions. Having viewed these figures, personally I think the board's only option is to put Ray McKinnon on gardening leave until the end of March, and appoint a Red Army general to see us through the winter. Things can't get any worse?

  35. We look for leadership and instead get cowardice and more than a little outright complicity.

  36. I imagine there's nothing in the rules to prohibit clubs from robbing banks or selling cocaine to raise cash to buy players either, but if we're saying that there's literally nothing we can do to deal with bad sportsmanship in sport, we might as well pack up the game and move on to tiddlywinks instead. The entire situation is absurd, but only because the football authorities have absolutely no desire to confront it.

  39. I take the point that if you work down through the tiers in a hypothetical fully integrated system with a two way split the whole way down, that difference in number of teams and therefore strength in depth would end up with a Lowland tier 9 that's stronger than a Highland tier 6 or something like that, but does that mean that tier 5 has to be split three ways? Surely you could have one Lowland League at tier 5 covering the same region it does now, then have an East and West split at tier 6 feeding into the Lowland League? If we're talking about 16 teams in the Lowland League, then you could have three relegated with the Champions of East and West being promoted automatically plus a play-off between the runners-up of each for the third place. That way, rather than having a three way split at tier 5 with teams playing in a West or East Region league then jumping straight to a national tier 4, you have a halfway point of gradually less regionalisation as you work your way up, giving time to adjust to the requirements and costs of longer trips. Of course, the tier 6 leagues in the Lowlands would still be stronger than tier 6 in the Highlands, but that would do a lot more to balance it out and make it much of less of a problem.
