  1. You get this in all sort of hobbies including travel which I guess groundhopping is a subset of where folk want to boast about how many things they’ve ticked off a list rather than how much they’ve enjoyed the overall experience. Called a mate out on it . He was all about ‘wouldn’t it be great to say you’ve done this?’ Who the f**k cares what anyone else thinks do it cos you want to do it I expect Oldham ground hopper has started to make a living off it, fair enough he clearly loves it, great enthusiasm and shares his stories well.
  2. Got away with it but mon to f**k we really need to be smarter and not concede penalties so easily
  3. It is, and it’s working very well, nothing wrong with along with everything else to be teaching players how to play the ref, something Scotland are terrible at as our penalty against count shows
  4. Every single place I've been with a high functioning public transport system has been publicly owned/run, I highly doubt that is coincidence.
  5. Allan or chalmers with otoo or hamilton is absolutely fine and may actually be the best choice especially if we are in control of possesion. The only combination of our deep lying midfielders that doesn't work is allan and chalmers together.
  6. It's would be nice to have summers available as he's capable of good moments but I don't think there's anything really to say he must start ahead of any of the other attacking options. If you had to have anyone drop out of the starting 11 last night it would have been him.
  7. I find in interesting a sale is agreed on condition of planning, does perhaps indicate how confident the buyer is that planning would be granted? They presumably have a lot more knowledge about to use to prove the site would be suitable? Yet they are happy to pay a premium so they can delicate the process to a football club?
  8. The word maintain is repeatedly doing a lot of heavy lifting. The number of clubs who have grass pitches well maintained is only a small percentage of those that have grass pitches By IFAB they do, mostly to appeal to raging da’s about how they look, not that it stops them
  9. Agree with that the only time it will be possible to have proper link up between amateur and pro leagues are when we get rid of amateur status. A player is a player, a club is a club and the financial arrangements between the two(within reason) are up to them, shouldn’t matter what league there in.
  10. From my understanding the meetings with supporters groups are meant to be in addition with the normal open supporters council meetings. The guys on EEB are normally pretty quick to give updates on discussions at the meetings. Piracy is pretty open about having concerns about the finances and his willingness to raise questions about it But I do agree that self-selected groups do result in a danger that a true representation of fans feelings doesn’t happen. The last meeting of this type was about the living through true sportsmanship stuff, something that has received far more dissent in public than what was represented in that meeting from what I gather.
  11. edwards showing up well isn’t a surprise, he’s had a good season surrounded by shit, Otoo probably the only other contender for player of the season I’d be interested in how they compare, perhaps slightly unfairly on Otoo who’s been punted about in different positions but they largely do similar jobs in being defenders who also get heavily involved with attacks. I, and I think most pars fans will be very surprised about Comrie showing so poorly, he’s not had his best of seasons but not been terrible, is it your factors? I see you’ve used the same criteria as edwards and whilst they have both played wingback edwards is very much an attacking one and Comrie is more about defensive contributions which is why he’s often deployed at RCB. But even if you’re judging him on RCB it’s as a 3 and it would be completely unfair to compare him to CBs playing in a 4 which he’d never play. Am I right your/wyscout model still prefers players based on a traditional positions struggling with differing between how distinct some roles in a team can be?
  12. People can see it, but they’ll have likely marched in with numbers, there’s not much your normal fan just having a piss can do at that point. They can tell them to not be Fannies but they’ll be ignored, they can tell stewards/police but there’s not much someone minimum wage is going to do about it and the police don’t have the capacity to arrest people in the numbers involved
  13. The match thread has been pretty universal with pars and rovers fans each condemning the scumbags without much care about what end they sit in. Clearly someone has got loose and needlessly making this a tribal issue. You're not got going to find anyone here thinking that such behavior is acceptable. Police are now pretty universally applying the attitude previously only given to OF fans, they will stand and watch crap behaviour and beyond capturing footage they are just wanting to get everyone home and their shift over with. They are completely overwhelmed and are unable to storm into crowds to arrest someone for graffiti.
  14. I don't mind the friday night games as much as some, but christ its a really disheartening way to end the working week when your struggling.
  15. That is probably fair comment, Is it possible to have a 'confidence' manager in much the same way as a confidence player? He's gone from believing we can win games a 3-0 down to completely losing heart at 1-0
  16. Ultra's pages happily posting fights certainly don't help. the CCTV point only helps if everyone sits in their allocated seats, barely any of guys do, and those that do let of smoke bombs etc are often central in their section making it hard for police/stewards to get to them.
  17. I think its a bit more nuanced. There is no doubt for me the shitty behaviour is probably the worst it has been in my lifetime Economics has a big part to play for me, if you look at the history of football violence then it seems worst at times of poor economic performance, I think that results in 2 things, 1. poor prospects for youngsters resulting in anger. 2. and probably more of a factor, policing numbers, you look at the number of officers patrolling things along links street and they just aren't anywhere enough to take control of things, their best hope is to arrest the worst offenders, but when they are forced to watch guys launching flares from 10ft away from them and can't take action there's a massive problem.
  18. Perhaps slow-mo has made it look worse for his ability to react.
  19. The swipe is a very poor decision, Nunez had already got there and taken a touch. but yes ake has got to take the vast majority of the blame
  20. I also don’t have any confidence that our B.O.D could pick a decent manager even if they were klopp, mourinho and guardiola all turned up offering to work for free they be getting questioned on how many youngsters they developed and sold on for a profit. Our problem is we don’t have any natural goalscorers, kane apart every single one of our options is best when playing off someone else.
  21. It was 100% a tactical choice, a choice that was proven to be a poor one
  22. I doubt they do, but I don't think they'd listen whatever the medium, they're fully intent on being fannies and will ignore any action trying to prevent that.
  23. Strong rumours of it. SPFL rules state the away club need to pay for any damage done by their fans. Fucking idiots the lot of them, I made a please not be c***s plea at the start of the thread and as I sadly knew it wouldn't be followed.
  24. Yes, slightly lower attendances as things opened up were to be expected, even tho restrictions were gone there was a percentage that didn't feel comfortable. I don't want to blame rovers fans for that. Same with today, we've been shit I don't know what was expected, I actually thought our crowd held up well given how bad we've been Don't know why there's an attack on the north west section(which I'm not a part of) its not like the behaviour in that area(coming from a very small percentage) was any worse than that going on in the other end(or on links street) we both have fannies that latch onto this fixture.
