  1. Ravanelli scored a hattrick against Clyde and that was it. Sheer revisionism to suggest he was any good at Dundee.
  2. Hit some serious form for Rovers which got him the move to RC. Pretty undecided on it myself. Can see the pros and cons.
  3. Gary Mason was better than Barry Ferguson [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
  4. I disagree with every single one of those statements controversial right enough.
  5. I'd rather have taken a punt on him than spunk money on Andy Ryan. Anybody who suggests otherwise is a maniac.
  6. Harsh. He's had a dip in form this season, no question, and had a few errors. That aside, I felt he was very good when he came back in January and had a big say in the 5 game winning run in February/March that ultimately kept us in the league.
  7. Dick Campbell would have got us promoted and done at least as good a job as Jimmy Calderwood from 99-04.
  8. So technically speaking yes. He got 22 goals in the league(30) in all competitions playing as the main striker. If he'd not played then there would have been somebody else to fill the void. Nobody else, however, would have scored the same amount (or type) of goals that he did. Goals completely out of nothing, outrageous bicycle kicks etc. Wee man was honestly a joy to behold that season.
  9. First game I went to was 1999 so missed out on Paton's team(s). Totally get and understand why they are held in such high esteem.
  10. Couple of controversial ones from me: Mark Burchill was a better striker than Stevie Crawford. If we'd had Burchill rather than Crawford up front along with Brewster then we'd have been even better 03-04. The Stephen Kenny saga is nowhere near as controversial as is ever made out. No players downed tools, the man was simply out his depth at the time. Very pleased to see him doing a superb job with Ireland under 21s. We wouldn't have won league 1 in 15-16 had it not been for Faissals goals. Alan Johnstone got lucky. The team which won division 1 in season 10-11 was bang average with an absolutely honking back line (Calum Woods aside). We shouldn't have punted Myles Hippolyte in the summer. Again, very pleased to see he has went on to do well this season. Callum Smith should be in our starting 11 nevermind on loan at airdrie.
  11. Regarding McGill looking shot to bits after a relatively short time, I imagine a lot of it will be to do with burning up a lot of nervous energy. Natural for younger players.
  12. Pretty sure you did tbh. A resounding no was the response.
  13. Hahahah is this what they are calling it? Total bollocks
