>>>It is fine margins in the Championship according to Alan Johnston. To be fair John McGlynn said the same in the Ayr post-match. They're both right in a sense, although we've been in a few very good positions in games that turned into hanging on. You can consistently be on one side of a fine margin, which both these teams probably have done. 5-2 Rovers

Celebrating too hard is better than celebrating the right amount. Awww yeah

The time for that was during the lockdown period when the fans' money was needed to keep the club afloat. A lot was put in during that time and I think the Trust decided it would be poor form to demand anything in return - I probably disagree but it's gone now. To remove a fans' director after that mass contribution would be really shameful though.

Always seemed like the emptiest, most vacant pish to me, and that unlikeable singer had nothing between the ears. @Bert Raccoon usually seems like a kenner though, what have I missed? I did think that Underdog (?) tune that lifts the drums from Scenario seemed fine other than the vox Fair play for distancing themselves from domestic abuser though and setting a bit of an example

The only we can really lose today is picking up injuries or suspensions. If other clubs play their youth teams in this cup it's hardly so important that we shouldn't treat it the same way.

Just mute the dafties IMO

There are obviously dozens of pundits you hear regularly and the variety is massive. Crichton can definitely give decent insight into what she's seen happen but doesn't usually seem to know the players thoroughly. I heard OAM on Saturday as well and they had just gone to her for an update when the goal happened in front of her - I thought she probably had her mind on getting through that (and looking at notes) rather than spotting that the striker had just crossed from a deep position to the left back at the far post. TBH I don't think doing Open All Mic is that easy. On Armstrong at the Rovers, he was definitely good for us and I came to think his attitude/application were a lot better than I had presumed. He carries himself a certain way maybe, but I think he was a pro and mucked in consistently. Put good shifts in e.g. covering left back, or better still covering left back as a sub when he'd been left out for Kennedy. Nobody hits a perfect corner every time - it's hard to put it in the same area, with pace and bend etc, time and again. Fair play if you can.

Bet you've no heard this one...

Bet365 is very user friendly tbf although I grudge saying anything good about any of them. McBookie's website isn't great but it's better than Sky. Both of them have bet builder as mentioned... 365 been offering a lot of free fivers lately even though by and large i've been winning. Clincher for me is that 365 offer ht-ft correct score which I like as a bit of a lottery ticket. McBookie lets you deposit less than a fiver which can be good if you've spent your allowance already or whatever. And they often have a healthy signup. Either of them imo.

I forgot we were even playing. Hope the young guys get a bit of game time.

That's how I remembered it as well. Hetherston to Aberdeen went to tribunal and we got 90k (they had offered about 10k)

Putting the value (for us) in the Tait transfer aside: if Hibs are lending him back to us it's because they know he is still developing. What they want in January is the player they expect him to be in January. If he didn't show the same hunger until then, he will fall short when he gets there. He knows this, the clubs and their managers know this. Not concerned about that side of it.

Club doing its best for months to put fans off and stop them spending any money, now making sure there's nothing on the park to make up for it

The last three songs on That's Why God Made The Radio are well worth a listen, even if they might not make many top 5s

I was going to be too lazy to read the article until it occurred to me: I bet the lawyer is taking it on for publicity. Yes he is. He's obviously been cashing in on it but I think it'll be quite easy to paint that as having been a coping strategy, or merely playing the hand he's been unfairly dealt. Not necessarily true but an unscrupulous lawyer could probably convince him of it.

There was enough evidence that he had a hearing and then received a ban. They don't dish out bans 'just in case'. Most fans were mortified to have a player banned for this, but obviously not all. No doubt we'll be shamed again when Todorov next plays against us.

The FIfe Free Press guy'll be too busy on jambos kickback or whatever, probably pop up with the same after he's read the courier

Musonda would have the attributes for playing base of a diamond and Vaughan would be fine at the front, but there's already one problem there and then you still need two guys with legs in between. Legit to scoff at Barry playing Vaughan so far back when he didn't need to, but if he has to play in midfield in a crisis it's probably ok very occasionally. We're short whatever way you spin it

I know it's the whole point, but this thread's hard going eh?

Getting nominated is expensive

Think he just meant they were wee guys but Barry Branes had us shelling it anyway

5mins 16sec, the most mental challenge I ever saw

They can be the 'Scottish Idles' when they've got a PR budget that could build a hospital on Mars and you can't escape them... until then, good luck to them

There's a lot of stuff not happening just now: not emailing season ticket holders to offer them a renewal, not inviting player sponsors to renew, no travel info, no prices and no indication of whether/when it's coming; no food and drink even though other clubs are managing. I know it's funny times, folk might be isolating or ill, and we'll have deliberately lean staffing. Or maybe the club's just got too many fans and too much money, and just don't want any more!
