  1. Yeah, it's certainly not a bottling. You've got Dundee United who have a budget much larger than than the rest, are miles ahead of them, and yet we are still in with a chance. They are very much favourites, which in fairness they have always been, whilst we've exceeded expectations. If we don't win it, I'll be looking at both those Arbroath games in particular. You can't say it without coming across as a bit crass, but they are the worst team in the league by a fair distance, and a 2-0 lead in both fixtures yielded a single point. That is disgraceful, to he quite frank. See also the 4-4 with Ayr, which was shambolic as we had a man advantage for most of the game. It could also be argued these are a counterweight to the last minute winners we've scored; there is sometimes a tendency to forget the good stuff that might've never happened when considering the bad stuff that we wish didn't happen. However, whilst we are still in it, we cannot afford any slip ups and we need to take advantage of any slip up from Dundee United, which we have not managed all season. Time is running out.
  2. There is zero chance Rowling is being prosecuted under this. She has the means and time (and willingness) to fight it and they know it. She loses she'll still be very rich; there are basically no consequences for her. The first test of this in court will inevitably be some Twitter dafty with 120 followers.
  3. He must've forgotten that the OBAF was never used against Rangers or Celtic either. Despite these clubs being the reason we were lumbered with it before its repeal.
  4. We need to win the game in hand, and then better Dundee United's results in the other five. Goal difference is out, so we need to win when they either draw or lose a match. Failing to match one of their results during this period and it's game over. I do think the chance will present itself, but whether we can take advantage of it is the big question.
  5. It's not over, but it's now out of our hands. We could win all our remaining games and it might not be enough. All we can do is keep the pressure on and hope that Dundee United choke. What can be said is that a failure to match one of their results is almost certainly now fatal. Murray has to take responsibility for that. A reckless way to line up yesterday.
  6. Take the point overall here, but I meant in a general context with today's opposition. I've just looked back at home many times they have taken the lead in the league this season and then lost it. Twice is the answer. In 31 games. They score first, they win just about every time. You have to admire it, the b*****ds.
  7. Unfortunately, this is entirely on Murray. Wrong set up and lineup from the start, they score and that's it game over. Unlike us, they can sit on a lead and grind it out. We are not out of the title race but the title race is now out of our hands.
  8. That lineup is one that is set out when you're going to dominate possession. If we aren't, then it's asking for it. Matthews should've played. Or the very least Watson at CB and Brown in the middle. A bad call from Murray.
  9. Just a quick note for anyone contemplating Cuba - if you plan on going to the US after you've done so, you won't be eligible for an ESTA and you'll need to get a full visa. One of Donald Trump's last actions as President designated Cuba a state sponsor of terrorism and you can't travel on an ESTA if you've been since 2020 (I think). This probably at least in part explains why the direct options from the UK are dwindling and probably about to become extinct. And on that note: absolutely do not transit via the US if you hold an ESTA. They'll cheerfully sell you a ticket to Cuba from Miami and then deny you boarding when you try to return because you're no longer eligible for an ESTA.
  10. What on earth is the 'authentic' kit? Is it made of different material? Presumably it's just a device to extract more money out of morons.
  11. Same. Picked what I thought was the worst possible seat in the Main Stand.
  12. You idiot. That's it fucked.
  13. That's fantastic! Come on!
  14. Should be a red, let's see if they upgrade it.
  15. Of all the bad haircuts, Gibson-Park might actually have the worst. Shave it FFS.
  16. Well that's it over then. Boo.
  17. Someone's going to get binned here. Three penalties in that last play.
  18. I am frequently bewildered that forward passes, which I was told are not allowed, seem to be commonplace and accepted. I think I've just learned that refs aren't very good in rugby either.
  19. That layoff there was forward.
  20. That is a huge win. Not comfortable viewing, but a fantastic win tonight. Ross Matthews was excellent tonight. It's been great watching him back in the team.
