Scottish football fans pretend they like an underdog story... when they think they are the underdog... Gonna be strange watching those arse clenching final weeks on the telly.

Can we please dispense with the off-topic chat and focus on the real issue here of whether GT was getting rattled or giving a gammy.

May as well be watching Rangers TV, this commentary is absolutely bowfin.

That should be enough with half an hour to go.

Here's that clip from both angles. There's a lot of selectively clipped GIFs or still images doing the rounds on twitter. All this talk of Woods grabbing his foot is nonsense. Can clearly see his hands go up to the injured area after the stamp. To say the Celtic player is shifting his weight to avoid stepping on him

So the UK will be relegated. But at least Accies might not be!

Brilliant to have Temps back! Saw the 'daft' speculation earlier today, seemed highly unlikely only a few hours ago.... Then all the wee hints... The statement from Burton Albion... Then the media reports. Just need the official welcome home video now! Absolutely delighted!

I follow Hamilton Accies because I am a massive supporter of the mafia and organised crime.

Happy Easter Road Day everyone!

Ah Celtic Focus otherwise known as Myopia. Great day for the Accies fans and the seeth makes it all the more delicious! Nice for those gammons to get out their caves for a bit too!

HWFG!

Just bringing this discussion back in-house. Agree with what's that's been said by Bateman and Bomber about this being a positive move. No way we would have recovered from going 0-1 down under Canning... and we would have been 0-1 down and probably shipped another. The fact Brian changed it and we went all out attack from a losing position is a really promising blast from the past. Can't add much more than has been said already but three points: 1. We would absolutely have been relegated under Canning anyway. He's kept us up in the past but was on a downward trajectory this season. 2. As has been said, we may still go down but if we do, we go down fighting. 3. Most importantly, if we go down, we are in a better place to compete in the Championship, whereas under Canning, we'd have continued to sink like a stone through the leagues. Here's hoping it doesn't come to that. Still a lot of work to do but at least there's a bit of positivity again amongst the supporters.

Eh....isn't that what any manager would say? Meaning he gets that we haven't had that for the last while.

Ignore the photos, here's his first interview with Accies TV - I like his positivity! Says he wants the players to play with energy, enthusiasm and play for the fans. Wants the fans to enjoy their pint post match, knowing the team put everything in... Sounds like he gets it!

I do know that, but good to hear Wikipedia is working. Potential is subjective, whether or not it materialises will have to be seen, but that's the way they do things at Accies. For every Tony Andreu or Giannis Skondras, there's 10 Nicolas Sumskys. It's a gamble but Rice has a lot of coaching experience and Maitland seems to have a more positive outlook and a good idea what we need.

Edited no less. I wonder how bad the first few drafts were! OK, Rice was a bit left field but I guess fits with out model of not big names but big potential. Feeling a lot more positive in the direction Alan Maitland seems to be trying to take us, he's certainly saying the right things (which makes a change from the last few years of defeatist 'punching' talk). Look forward to seeing how this pans out! Can still see us getting beat on Saturday though, far too early to judge.

Hartley is a shit manager but not a shite coach. would probably work with a DOF if hamilton could go down that route Would not see that being a popular appointment. Hopefully Allan Maitland has a strong set of key requirements and we get a solid replacement in to take us back to where Alex Neil left off.

It's a shame Canning has to go in this way but he overstayed his welcome and today's decision is the right one. Clyde 1 SSB (I know, I know) suggesting Hartley might be an option. That hopeless arse should be out the frame immediately after his GIRUY to Hamilton fans and his ridiculous paranoid rantings after the 10-2 game. That and he's sh*te. Interesting times ahead. Definitely not getting my hopes up til we see who comes in but a move in the right direction.

He's definitely not going anywhere. Alan Maitland was just in the paper yesterday saying as much.

Don't be greedy!

Also at Falkirk... Paul "Tinfoil Hat" Hartley, who we were promised would be more successful than Alex Neil, has been sacked... Again.
