  1. I've been off the booze (and not posting on here) since August but easing myself back in with an Al Fresco Disco Forklift Truck. Lovely.
  2. It won't take away any controversy in VAR decisions, just change the rules the technology measures to. Don't see the point to be honest.
  3. I'd never heard of Comoros so looked it up. This isn't the scoreline I was expecting against a small group of islands with a population of less than 1m.
  4. I actually thought Hearts would be a step too high for him and Aberdeen or Hibs would be more likely from a wage point of view.
  5. I'd love to see that scenario too but can you imagine how many pages the match thread would run to? In all seriousness, I get the points you make and the team names are interchangeable. It's already happened on a few occasions this seasons with managers pointing but there always seems to be another incident which the manager wants to concentrate on moaning about.
  6. I'm amazed it took so long. I suppose it was overnight.
  7. Surely you've seen Airplane? It's amazing what those autopilots can do.
  8. I'm surprised at that. I thought you could write your will any way you wanted.
  9. One of those days. I didn't think either team played particularly well but Aberdeen took their goal well. Aberdeen had more threat in the first half and I thought we carried we looked more dangerous in the second but the subs weakened us and Aberdeen saw out the game comfortably enough in the end. I thought all of our better players looked a bit off it today, perhaps a bit rusty after a two week break so hopefully we can sort that out with another break coming. Miller's 'goal' was the far end from me so I had no idea how it made it into the net never mind if there was a handball. There's no way the alleged handball against Shinnie which was right in front of me at the end should have been given as a penalty but I reserve the right to change if we had a goal chopped off for a similar non-handball. Ah well, back to worrying about the play-off place. At least straight relegation looks pretty much off the table.
  10. Everyone seems to think their team will lose. So, stick-on draw and everyone's wrong?
  11. Winning on Saturday would mean 3 wins in a row. As you say, you'd have got huge odds on that a few weeks ago.
  12. I hadn't realised it Wayne Foster's penalty that he saved - couldn't have happened to a more deserving fellow. I had a memory of being at a game where the ref took exception to a double-sub happening without his permission and booked all four players but hadn't realised it was this one - proper pedantic refereeing and nothing says old school like Cammy Duncan being physically lifted off the park and up the tunnel.
  13. Is this going to turn into a selection of Clark and Kelly howlers? I think the only outcome is we'll see neither of them should be anywhere near the international team (but there are few alternatives for the squad).
  14. I was there. Horrible challenge early on by Wayne Foster on Cammy Duncan and we came back from two down to draw. Jamie Dolan against Celtic was more recent but it's changed days.
  15. I agree it's unlikely a third choice keeper would play but it's not too outlandish to imagine a scenario where you are a man down due to an injury in training and a keeper gets sent off. Or are you allowed to call up a replacement from the beach for the injured player?
  16. I thought he was only here until the end of the season as well but couldn't be bothered checking. I assumed he'd accepted a short term deal with a view to picking up a better deal for next season.
  17. Did he come through your academy? Would you not be due a hefty development fee?
  18. Warnock gone. Any new manager bounce will hopefully be in their midweek game and not next Saturday.
  19. Did we miss a penalty or is my memory playing tricks on me? Murphy?
