  1. For the very same reason why Kuss paced Roglic up L'Angrilu in 2020 - despite Roglic suffering up the climb and Kuss paced him all the way to the top, despite the fact he was on a very good day himself. By that logic, Kuss should've just dropped Roglic in the red jersey, left him to fend for himself, and plotted him own way up the mountain.
  2. Can't fault the club for trying. But I will be amazed if either of them sign a new deal - especially Strain. I could see Championship clubs lining up for his signature.
  3. For clarity - Kuss wants his shot, but is willing to help the other 2 out. Vingegaard wants Kuss to win. Roglic wants to race. Hope that clears everything up. It's just a shame that the nearest non-Jumbo rider is 4 minutes back here - almost 3 mins down on Roglic in 3rd.
  4. Well, I really wish we could hear the team radios at this Vuelta. I spotted an interview with Vingegaard after today’s stage saying he hopes Kuss wins. That’ll explain why he’s attacked him 2 stages in a row then. If Roglic had just flew to the win and Vingegaard just paced Kuss to the finish then there barely have been a word said. I still can’t see what the need was for Vingegaard to jump on Roglic’s wheel.
  5. Not to mention Jumbo also sucked all the joy out of the Tour of Britain last week - picking up 5 stages wins out of 5. WVA won the GC and the point classification. It really isn't much fun to watch. Anyway, as predicted before the race, I fully expect Vingegaard to be in red in Madrid.
  6. Has anyone ever said Rangers kept their dignity with a straight face before? That must be a first, surely?
  7. I'd watch it if I was you, Tam will have this clipped and on his Insta story by teatime.
  8. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/sir-alex-ferguson-condemns-rangers-30929727 Where to even start with this pish. f**k me. "And the former Rangers striker is utterly convinced that was the wrong call as he believes both the product on the pitch and attendances in the stands suffered. " We won the League Cup and our attendances barely changed during Sevco's ascent up the gingy bottle leagues. Can't say, as a St Mirren fan, that I gave a single f**k that Rangers were not in the top flight.
  9. So Kuss is losing red tomorrow, eh? No way Vingegaard and Roglic don’t attack him. No idea what’s going on. I get that it’s bine racing, but you’d be fuming to be leading the race, your team has an absolute stranglehold on the GC, you’re racing your third grand tour of the season and have helped the other 2 win those GTs. And now we’re in the final week of racing and your own teammates are the ones attacking you inside the last 5k.
  10. Of course, they go ahead and have the three Jumbo guys actually attacking each other. That's how little a threat they view the rest of the field.
  11. I can't recall a single team ever winning all 3 GTs with 3 different riders in the same season.
  12. The Vuelta coverage is dreadful. I've lost count of the number of attacks we've not seen because they are following some random Spaniards hundreds of meters back down the road.
  13. The fun and excitemet has been sucked right out of this Vuelta by Jumbo. The only interesting remaning point will be which of their 3 GC leaders do they give the win to? Do they just let Kuss stick to the wheels all the way to Madrid? Or do they let Roglic have a pop? That aside, there's not much else to get excited by, other than L'Angliru tomorrow.
  14. I can’t actually believe a club bigger than us didn’t come in for McMenamin. He’ll go on to be one of the league’s singings of the season this year.
  15. St Johstone fans right up there in a close second place, just behind Dundee, for the fan base with the biggest bunch of oddballs.
  16. You then have a bizarre scenario where Charlie Mulgrew - who thought it was a foul - tying himself up in knots trying to lend some credence to McCann's batshit take on the incident. Mulgrew actually said that it was a free kick, but if you take the same scenario and move it into the Celtic box then it's a penalty to Rangers. No Charlie, it's not. Having now watched it 3 times and tried to get my head around the points they were making - I still have no fucking idea what they are talking about.
  17. I've had to rewind twice now to see what the f**k Neil McCann is actually talking about for the Rangers disallowed goal. He's what he thinks a smart person sounds like. In his head, he thinks he's making a profound observation about football. However, because you don't agree with the laws of the game does not mean that those laws should be ignored mate. It was a trip and a clear foul and a free kick to Celtic. He then tried to back up his point, by saying he doesn't agree with the handball rule either so that's why it shouldn't have stood. He is paid to talk about football. He's a slavering mess. Fucking hell.
  18. With All Out in Chicago, I wonder what the chances are it’s a work. I can only imagine the crowd reaction at the show.
  19. Can’t make our game today so tuned in. The chat is about how clubs should definitely be disclosing transfer fees to fans. According to Willie Miller, clubs are “duty bound” to be “transparent” with fans. Jesus christ. No club on earth would openly talk about transfer fees or publicise how much cash they have to spend. That’d be fucking moronic. A bit like this entire chat. f**k me.
  20. It'd be hard to have a pop at SR for jumping if Hibs did come in. Chucking an extra 20/25/30k a year at anyone would be enough to tempt them and I wouldn't blame him in the slightest. He will know, he's only a few injuries and bad results away from all the hype around him disappearing - so you have to make hay while the sun shines. I really do hope we can hold on to him. But if Hibs come calling and he does go then best of luck to him. It's been some brilliant football and results to watch. That said, f**k Hibs.
  21. Reports have Jungle Boy initially assaulting Punk. Hangman commented first. They do it via Meltzer and Alvarez. Next.
  22. Robinson is cotracted until 2026. It would take some offer from Hibs to get us to even bite. Can't see it happening.
  23. Can't believe nobody is fuming we might potentially sell a player to a rival. I mean, surely the hypocrites who screamed bloody murder about Carson will be along any second now? Surely?
  24. He was carrying an injury when the Bolton deal was agreed. They backed out. He recovered fairly quickly, but Bolton had already moved on by then.
  25. I agree. And everyone on the opposite side needs to shut their mouth.
