Jim McLean's Ghost

VAR shouldn't get involved. Ref made a call on the force. It wasn't a red at the time.

It hit him on the thigh, again right in front of the keeper. He does seem prone to backing right in front of the keeper

If this 16 year old was a rugby player I would 100% convinced he had been taking roids since he was about 8.

The first half today was excellent, maybe says mor about Livi than us. We were getting forward on both flanks, pressing high and looked really dangerous. Second half was a non-event. Livi had a few shots from the edge of the box but otherwise it was a total shitfest. I'm not going to pretend I was a fan of signing Bair but it was quickly apparent to me that the guy is a very hard worker and had more going for him than other options. You have to wonder if Martindale will last much longer.

Mauled by The Bair!

Davie Martindale has clearly scouted our games and seen a forward dropped off into the middle of the park will have all the time and space in the world to play.

Sack him now. how many times is he going to go to this bizarre 2 midfielder line up? just because it works in desperation moments at the end of games does not mean it is a formation you can start with.

Some finish. Game over

Is it not only a red if it is literally on the line or open goal. Double jeopardy and all that. The keeper is still in place so not absolutely certain it would have went in

I don't think he will be finishing as top scorer in europe this season

Never a foul by the keeper. Slides and wins the ball. No studs on Rashford

Another belter of a cross from McGinn. United players were like statues

Super John McGinn

McManaman is the thickest guy going.. Complains about VAR for a decision the ref gave in real time.

It is the corner between the away stand and the Derry. Huge puddles on the opening day. That is at the top of a decently big hill, should have been easy to dig in a new drain but obviously Dundee didn't bother their arse and now any decent rainfall will put that corner underwater and the game in danger

Concede a completely preventable goal. Stick on red 5 minutes later. Game over

United lost today. Raith Rovers taking a lead on the Championship meaning Moutl could relegate us in the Playoff.

NoWinWinter continues

This is across the UK, although some hospitality issues are more acute in rural Scotland which relied on EU workers coming over and living on site. Employers essentially collecting back a lot of the pay in rent and rates. Obviously locals generally have their own places to stay. 31% of kids in England live in poverty, 29% in Wales, 24% in Northern Ireland. Birmingham, the second largest city in the UK has a council is essentially bust. Railways in Britain are a fucking shambles. Drug and alcohol continues to be a shameful part of scottish society with a high death rate. MUP and safe consumption rooms are policies that are meant to help put it is mostly papering over the cracks. Britain is going down the pan. Yoons regularly bring up metrics to slam the Scottish govt like the Poverty Attainment Gap In Scotland the gap has closed a little in the past 20 years, in England it hasn't moved. https://www.theguardian.com/education/2022/aug/16/no-improvement-in-school-attainment-gap-in-england-for-20-years-report-says

Congrats on your dead rubber win Celtic Maybe this will mean Brendan will get his name on the thread for next season

Everton picked the right season for the 10 point deduction. they are not total shit and there are 3 teams that are clearly not operating on the same level as other clubs.

Rodgers

Saw Belle and Sebastian at Paisley Town Hall last night. Playing a mix from everything so with the huge discography you are never sure what you are going to get. It was filmed so it will be on the telly? at some point I guess. Obviously they played Boy with the Arab Strap. Finished with Lazy Line Painter Jane. The crowd wasn't exactly bouncing but it was a good atmosphere. Paisley Town Hall is a smart venue, clearly an upgrade over Motherwell Civic Centre which imo would have been cavernous. Much nicer building in Paisley too. Just newly renovated. Bar queue moved quickly too.

Bair lacks any real quality but makes up for it with effort. Obika moved quickest when he got hooked. Mika is obviously out best forward but out of all the others for me Bair is the guy I want on the park. Gent was fine defensively today and was a decent threat going forward. Spencer was theoretically good if he was on his good foot, in practice he hasn't been much better than O'Donnell at RWB The mental weakness in Scottish football is the only thing keeping us afloat. County, Dundee and St Johnstone have all crumbled in injury time at fir park. Killie too but they were going for the win too rather than just defending a league I guess even Celtic collapsed twice, even if they got a winner

Alexander had plenty of comebacks too. But at some point you actually need to win a game. Liam Kelly needs dropped asap. Guy isn't all there.
