  1. A little surprising Hanley doesnt appear to have been officially pulled out yet. They pulled Sargent out on sunday. Are Scotland maybe wanting to check him themselves? Or have they just not confirmef Hanley yet.
  2. Yes, that is a concern. He's clearly one of Clark's favourites and he was quick to highlight it again himself in making this squad announcement. I'm sure he wants him in Germany, but missing this squad is unhelpful. I wonder if he might travel, at least to the home game, anyway. Not going doesn't rule him out yet if he does get back to playing for Norwich regularly, but the "sharpness and explosiveness" is precisely why Clark likes him in the middle covering behind Tierney and Hendry / Porteous. If he doesn't have it then his chances are much reduced. That was always the worry with such a bad achilles injury in his 30's.
  3. As I thought live the equaliser was pretty clearly offside. It's not even a particularly difficult one to get right. It's right in front of the linesman. Changes the momentum of the game. As annoying as that is, Falkirk were the better side first half hour and last half hour and whilst the margin was a wee bit flattering maybe, no complaints about the result. The penalty's soft in that Morrison flung himself but he was clipped and McKechnie conceded that afterward. Did think Gibson might have also got one at the other end at 3-1 (I think)? Some hit from Nesbitt. Enjoy your title celebrations next week.
  4. The absolute state of that from Gallagher. He was in the Scotland squad 4 years ago! He wouldnt get a game for my son's u15s playing like that. Jesus wept.
  5. Easiest firing ever last night as much as they tried to pretend he was thinking about it. Maura made an arse of being project leader but made the right actual choice so got away with it thanks to the ticket sales debacle on the other side and thanks to Flo rescuing the performance and avoiding refunds. Tre and Flo, and perhaps Raj, look comfortably the strongest candidates. Barring a holocaust of a task or a horror business plan the final two should come from those three. Foluso prior to last night had been decent and I suppose might fight back to that level. If Phil doesn't have a magnificent business plan (presumably involving his existing pie business) he'll go next time he's in the Boardroom for losing (though he rightly wasn't in last night). Paul, and probably Maura, should drop out soon too.

Peter Leven in Interim Charge *Note Steven Naismith was appointed caretaker manager of Hearts on 9th April 2023. After a successfully spell he was given the job permanently on 7th June 2023. However, as he does not have a Pro Licence and Hearts qualified for Europe they were required to 'officially' name assistant Frankie McAvoy as manager on the same date. Naismith instead took on the title 'Technical Director'. Following Hearts elimination from European competition, Naismith was officially re-confirmed as Manager on 6th September 2023 with McAvoy reverting to assistant. As nobody surely seriously believes McAvoy was ever actually in charge, I've listed Naismith as continuous from 9th April and ignored McAvoy's official 3 month spell as manager. If the technical most recent reappointment date of 6th September is instead used for Naismith then he drops four places further down the list, in between Brendan Rodgers and Nick Montgomery. Updated for developments at Ross County and Aberdeen who both currently have "Interim" appointments rather than "caretakers". Unclear if either will get right to the end of the season but seems clear neither expects to be the next permanent appointment so I've left the positions sitting "vacant" at the moment.
  7. Yeah, all looks pretty efficient so far. Mine is showing the Northern Ireland ticket albeit with no QR code until matchday. My son's is showing his also despite me having bought his actual ticket for him on my account (but using his number). All seems in order.
  8. You'd like to think so. Though I doubt points harvesting is a significant issue at home games anyway.
  9. True. But Harvey Barnes' one England cap was over three years ago and he's not been close to another since. Gordon's in the current England squad. If it doesnt formally put it to bed for a career yet, it certainly confirms he wont be in dark blue in Germany this summer (although not having been named in our squad on Tuesday in reality had already confirmed that).
  10. Coincidence. I got the exact same email before I downloaded it.
  11. Yeah, still not "leaving it there" I see. And still preferring to peddle a line about a "Pro Kit Catalogue" despite having been informed more than once by more than me that it's not how it works. The notion that the SFA have no say in the kit Adidas put them in is just daft. And with that, I will "leave it there" because it's adding nothing for everyone else.
  12. You have a different definition of "leaving it there" than most I suspect.
  13. Well ultimately one of us has significant dealings with various kit manufacturers and one of us apparently doesn't. Happy to leave it there though.
