Not sure why all you idiots attack steakngravy constantly.I also know Bowie’s grandfather and his ankle was keeping him out.
I fucking love this forum0 -
Massive couple of weeks for us coming up. I hope Mcglynn isn’t tempted to rush back players like Hendry, Miller and Bowie but you can understand why he would be desperate to have them back!

Airdrie support weren't in the North Stand. We had the South Stand the day we won promotion.
Tory Boy, I owe you an apology. I assumed you were talking about the Scottish Cup QF in 1995 when airdrie brought a big support through. Serves me right for being a lazy git and not reading the thread properly!1 -
The crowd figure from that game will just be made up. Close to kick off here were still loads of Airdrie fans still outside so they just opened the exit gates and stewards stood with buckets collecting money.
No they didn’t. I was selling programmes at the North turnstiles that day and can confirm that’s 100% bullshit.2 -
What on earth has happened to Steven Anderson since the Clyde game? He’s looked our weakest defender ever since.
0 -
I don’t think S Anderson is good enough to defend in a back 4. He’s too slow. I think he needs a couple of centre backs beside him to get the best out of him.
Grant Anderson has been deployed at wing back in the past, could that have been a better option than Mackay in a game that we knew we needed to attack in?
Why have Victoria and Tait (until last night) been given any game time off the bench lately? We know we are going to need these guys eventually, not getting them on the park won’t be helping their match sharpness!
Why on earth would you start with Allan and Baird up front? That pairing must be a centre backs dream! Neither is mobile or creative!
I’m a massive fan of John Mcglynn, I think he cares massively for the club but his selection and tactics are baffling at times.1 -
Yeah, there was so much flair and class in that side that a player like Ally Graham was always going to stand out for the wrong reasons. You tend not to appreciate a player that does the ugly side!
As an aside, the song that was sung about him when he left for Falkirk and they got relegated was genius! To the tune of Don’t look back in anger by Oasis...
Sooooo Ally can’t wait, he knows it’s too late cause they’re going on down...
I’m so glad to say, and don’t come back you w****r, I heard you say!0 -
He’s not on an apprentice contract but please continue.
Yes he is. He’s got a 2 year apprentice contract with an extra year for the year after.0 -
Dundee Utd cant afford him! None of them can he’s already priced out with their budgets.
How much money do you think we can realistically expect to get for a player on an apprentice contract?0 -
The Press reported that Arsenal and Dundee Utd were watching Bowie yesterday. It would be interesting what sort of money we would get if a big team from down south came in for him. We won’t have any chance of getting out of this league without him and Vaughan though!

Changing the subject slightly but what on earth has happened to Dan Armstrong since he came back? Apart from that free kick against Falkirk he’s done nothing and looks disinterested.

That was purgatory today. How we're through to the next round I have no idea. That first 30 minutes Peterhead absolutely destroyed us and even after they ran out of steam they still had comfortably the better of things.
Taking Baird off was a mental decision unless he was carrying a knock of some kind.
I thought putting him and Allan up front together was a poor decision and a waste of a substitution. He didn’t look happy when he came off.0 -
We need to drop some of these jobbers for Tuesday and take a gamble with youth. Thankfully Davo's banned, he was shite today.
Gamble with youth? You do know we don’t have a youth team right? The only youth we have who didn’t start today was Dylan Tait and he will be a certain to play on Tuesday due to injury and suspensions I’d imagine.1 -
Totally forgot about Booth! He was a great player for us. I actually swithered about putting Allan Walker in the side until I remembered about how much of an arse he was when he left! Craig Wilson was a contender at right back too.

Marv wasn't this decade.
Played for us in 2009 according to the never incorrect source that is Wikipedia0 -
Who would be in everyone's team of the past decade? (or whatever the time frame is the ffp are running with) there's a few certainty's for me such as mcgurn but I'm struggling with a few positions so will see if anyone else jogs my memory before I post my team.
Mcgurn
Jason Thomson
Marvin Andrews
Mark Campbell
Laurie Ellis
*Grant Murray*
Ross Callaghan
Regan Hendry
Lewis Vaughan
John Baird
Brian Graham
*Was going to put Murray at left back back wanted to put Laurie in the side!

I’d have Graham and Baird before Tade and Baird.

I think he said 1 in 9 not 1 in 1
Yup, he played 9 games and conceded 1 goal! Tell me I’m rang?0 -
There’s another keeper with a ratio of one goal conceded every 9 competitive games played. Surely a better shout than Mcgurn?

Had to google who that was, firstly, oaft - howling! Secondly, brilliant 1 liner [emoji23][emoji1319]
You had to google who he was? He’s played pretty much every week!2 -
Completely agree with Brashy’s assessment. Also thought it was poor from the crowd the amount of times mobile phones went off, despite a reminder at the interval. I was surprised to hear that it’s going ahead next year. I think it needs a wee break. You know we are struggling for people when folk like Alan Crow are getting awards!

Lewis Allan not far away either
We have definitely missed him. I was a bit critical of him before his injury but I think we have struggled for a bit of physical presence without him in the side. It’ll be really interesting to pick a front line once we have Armstrong, Anderson, Gullan, Victoria, Bowie, Baird, Allan and Smith available!0 -
Had almost forgotten all about Victoria. Although he’s not been great, it’s good to have another body available!

Zico’s alter ego posts are right up there with the guy who posted that he had buried a bag of the clubs cash under the pitch and wanted help finding it before we dug up the grass and put the astro down!
Is Zico/steakandgravy aware of how IP addresses work? I’d love a mod to confirm them being from the same computer!
