Raith Rovers v Hamilton Academical
Shotts56 replied to baillieinleeds's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Buzzing for when Mimnaugh gets a go. Must be soon. I think I must be due a turn soon, we've missed that many penalties recently. -
Coronavirus and the Scottish Championship
Shotts56 replied to Granny Danger's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Guilty as charged. Would obviously much rather be at the game, but if I can't go, then watching my team on a stream is still much preferable to some insufferable English Championship game on Sky. -
Thistle vs Hamilton 20th November 2021
Shotts56 replied to R&Y99's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Nope, 10 shots at goal, zero on target, according to the BBC. Again. Every game is like bloody Groundhog Day. -
Accies vs Raith…Part Deux, McGowen out or not…
Shotts56 replied to TxRover's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
9 players out injured again. Really really sick of this shite. That's been two years of this pish. -
Super saints v Accies 17/02/21
Shotts56 replied to Lola montez's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
No idea. Before last night, we had 11 games to go in the season, 4 of which would be against St Mirren (3 in the league, and 1 in the Scottish Cup) if they don't make top six. So many games have been moved forward, moved back, cancelled, awarded, uncancelled, unawarded, snowed off or rained off, it'll be a major feat if the fixture list actually adds up to the right number of games at the end of the season. I've totally lost track. -

Was in Erik Thorsvedt, the Spurs keeper ? And yes, there was an incredible noise late on that game. I was in the uncovered North Terracing, and it was my first experience of seeing us qualify for anything -
What are the things you hate regarding fitba?
Shotts56 replied to Bluenortherner's topic in Misc Other Fitba Chat
Yes. Its shite. -
I'll be there. Most countries do something that I don't agree with. If I let that dictate whether I travelled there or not, I would never leave the house. A bit like the last year, in saying that

They had just won Euro 84 and really unlucky to lose in the World Cup semi-final in 86. Which shows what a good result that was for us. But yes, they did lose their way for a few years after that. -

Agreed - two wonderful games. Mo Johnstone scoring the first in the 2-0 win v France, and McCoist scoring in the 1-1 draw with Norway that qualified us. Great days -

I remember going to Celtic Park with Accies when we first got promoted to the Premier League in the mid/late 80s, and the attendances v Accies were usually in the 15,000 - 20,000 mark. A quick google check confirms the crowd of the Celtic 8 Accies 3 game in 1987 as 16,380. Although admittedly, Accies aren't the biggest draw in the world -

Yes, that's true, which is why the seating configuration is completely different from what it was at old Douglas Park. It's like getting a giant lego set with no instructions, so you make it up as best as you can, but it never looks quite right -
Accies v Dandies - 25/11/20
Shotts56 replied to Frank Grimes's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
In fairness, Accies were missing plenty of first choice players as well. No David Templeton, Lewis Smith, Sean Want, Jamie Hamilton, Will Collar, Charlie Trafford or Kyle Munro.
