Gallus Numpty

Given the backgrounds of various folk who've been on our board and run our club over the years, I'd imagine we've had more than a few already.

Anything that requires us winning never feels in any way "likely".

I suspect the main reason is that, like a lot of very wealthy people, he just never seemed very likeable or relatable.

Probably, but who knows. Playing like he did at Ibrox with Clarke in attendance won't have done his chances or his confidence any harm, but he'll have to keep that up for the rest of the season to have any chance.

What I've mainly learned from this thread is that while I liked pretty much all of our old strips at the time, I very much don’t now.

Absolutely... wasn't meant as a criticism!

From his highlights reel, his average scoring distance appears to be about 3 yards.

It should be taken into account, but it's not that dreadful, to be honest. Most folk who run a lot of online surveys will tell you 20-30% is about the average response rate, regardless of the issue at hand or the number of questions.

I'd be surprised if it has any effect at all, tbh. It happened so long before most (all?) of the players were born that it might as well be referring to 1891. I certainly couldn't give a toss about anything that happened 33 years ago at the company I work for.

Probably, pretty much everything in life is better if you've never seen Friends before.

Dunno why not, they've already posted it on Twitter...

It means we need to hire a copy editor.

Agreed... amazing how often you hear about creative folk being asked to do decent chunks of work for free because it's "good exposure" or some bollocks. It's bad for the whole industry.

I think I’ll just go back to gardening on a Saturday afternoon if that’s ever our plan again.

A fair bit to go yet. There may be longer runs, but Derby County going 32 games without a win in the 2007-08 season springs to mind. Billy Davies was in charge at the start of that, but Paul Jewell was in charge for the latter 27 of them (24 league and 3 cup games), and then lost the first game of the next season for a total run of 28. They did win their second game, though.
