To be fair to Beaton, he was probably following SFA orders to get Yinitet back in the top flight. -

Yardley wouldn't have played with Chalmers, he arrived a good 4/5 years after Chalmers time with us. My bad, I stand corrected. My auld memory is worse than I thought. -

That route 1 first goal was very reminiscent of many Money/Yardley/Chalmers goals. -

I never thought that I would say this, but for me the new home kit trumps pozbaird's 2013 design. -

Thats true, participation in Rugby union is waning fast. It's manifesting itself at the moment where all of the trans tasman games are being won by kiwi teams. IRRC that's 23 games without an Aussie win. Also true that less young people are taking up rugby here in NZ. -

Let me clear it up for you, when Ferguson shot, Kevin Gallagher was on the line standing next to Money .There were no other defenders behind him. Offside then, offside now.

This it's not a penalty if the ball was going out nonsense seems to be an invention of managers. If a player is fouled with or without the ball in the box it's a penalty end of.

Footballers who aren't nice people
madmitch replied to Flybhoy's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Met Mark Hateley he came across as thick and arrogant. Tony Fitzpatrick complete gent. Dougie Sommer that rare beast an intelligent footballer. Also a gent. Jock Stein good guy. Best encounter was with Bobby Murdoch. I had bagged hospitality from NTL who sponsored both sides of the old firm at the time. Bobby was doing his ambassador role at Parkhead. He struck up a conversation with me. As we were talking, a security truck pulled up at the stadium to which he said "Aye that'll be Henrik's wages arriving". -

Can't match that record. I started watching in the 67/68 season. I remember thinking, this team never loses.

Top 6 Super knackered Saints v Staggies

The UK policy is 12 weeks between doses. Loads of info on efficacy, policy etc if you google it. Thanks very much for that.

Not really been keeping in touch closely with how things are going in the U.K. or this thread for a while. A question, My 88 year old mother got her initial vaccine in mid January, the expectation was that she would receive the second dose in three weeks. She is now telling me it will be 12 weeks before she gets the second jab. WTF?! If what was promised was three weeks is now twelve weeks, does this mean that there will be a reduction in the efficacy of the vaccine? P.S. she contracted COVID a few months ago and survived. She's a tough old gal.

Motherwell v Dundee United Nil
madmitch replied to mishtergrolsch's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
If you had been playing the Rangers, brother Dallas would have awarded four penalties for one of those incidents. -
Ok this one is a bit like the St.Mirren were the reason Hearts didn't win the league in 1986, in that it's nonsense. This was the offside rule at the time... A player was considered offside unless three players of the opposing side are in front of him (includes goalkeeper). The "goal " was adjudged offside because when Iain Ferguson shot, there was a United player on the goal line. So as he struck the ball , a United player was in front of him and offside. The United player on the line, had at best, two St.Mirren players in line with him, not in front of him if they had been in front of him they would have been out of play as they would have been over the goal line, I hope that clears that up. Check the video from 2:00 in.

A St. Mirren top or maybe a Rangers one...

Yes Lennon was great for lolz in the cups during that period.

Just texted my wife, Get the sussies oot the night! It's still morning here...

When was the previous occasion when neither of the Old Firm were in the semis of a cup? Discounting the Rangers period in the seaside leagues.

Paul Kinnaird, shudder at the thought. He was decent for Motherwell, rotten for us. Could have been a stunt double for Beavis... -

I think we are talking two different Galloways here. You are talking Gavin Galloway. I was talking Steve Galloway. -

That's a comprehensive list. Richard Brittain had 37 games though. I remember him well. Gerhard? Fellner allegedly an Austrian centre back. The boy Galloway and another striker from the Tom Hendry era I think, not sure if his surname might have been McVitie. If that was his name we would have been better off with a digestive biscuit upfront than him
