MrDust Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 2 hours ago, Harry Kinnear said: I agree with this and I would also give a bit of credit to the much maligned Nesbitt. Thought he was excellent and at no point in the game hid, was always looking for the ball and did his job yesterday. Don't think Nesbitt's issue is hiding, it's more his end product. I was a bit concerned with Henderson's pace yesterday, well lack of it and the challenge was one of the WTF moments. I'm hoping it's match fitness. We carved the pars defence up a good few times yesterday, better decision making or finishing would've seen us home with 3pts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKay at right back would be an absolute bombscare. No he wouldn’t be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 5 hours ago, Skyline Drifter said: Then you were told complete nonsense. SPFL clubs play domestic friendly bounce games without official 'permits' all the time. It was banned during covid but has been allowed again since start of last season. You need permission to play an open doors friendly and a formal referee appointment. Closed doors you can do what you like. If you are or were a referee I'm finding it hard to believe you were never once approached directly by a club to do a bounce game without it going through the SFA. Every referee I know has done that. We were always specifically told by our referees association not to take charge of any games which did not have a permit, including bounce games. It may be that there are different rules for senior clubs than was the case with amateur/Junior clubs in Ayrshire at that stage. Lots of people still did it, but it was made clear that this was not officially authorised in any way and that you could get into disciplinary issues if caught out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairn in Exile Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 And now for something completely different. I posted over on the Pars v Falkirk thread that “Scottish football needs a strong Falkirk and Dunfermline”, half tongue in cheek but half serious. It got me thinking about which 12 teams in Scottish football would make up the “perfect” Scottish Premier League in terms of crowds, TV broadcaster interest and derby excitement? In no particular order I came up with the 4 following blocs: Falkirk, Dunfermline and Raith Rovers Sevco, Celtic, Partick Thistle and St Mirren Hearts and Hibs Dundee, Dundee United and Aberdeen Many of the above would also have “crossover” interest, e.g. Falkirk vs Hearts, Hibs vs Dunfermline, Raith Rovers vs Dundee etc. There wouldn’t be a week goes by without some sort of derby on the fixture card. Motherwell would lose out because I don’t think that their games against Hamilton and Airdrie would nowadays generate enough crowds and interest. Similarly, we have “lost” the St Mirren / Morten derby and the Ayrshire derby. Also, I have omitted St Johnstone because they just don’t have big enough crowds. (if they were in the 3rd tier like we are at the moment I don’t think they would get more than 1,000). Ross County and Inverness CT also lose out because they are too isolated.

Discuss It’s irrelevant when the mercenaries that run our game, have decided that’s it’s the SPL and Fck everyone else. The STJs and MWls survive on the cash riches distributed to each other and whore off their stadiums to the arse cheeks, at every opportunity. Strange that STmids have decided to give one stand to one of the arse cheeks, and guess what they win………. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far from having seen Aberdeen Hearts & Hibs selling out Brockville, the two Dundee clubs could attract a similar following if in contention for silverware. However, they all had the chance to make a grab for contention, when the old club died, by locking the zombies out, & competing with the green half of the sisters as they withered on the vine without their partner. The whole lot shat it & sold out for a quick buck. He’ll mend the lot of them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van_damage Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Seen this on Twitter. Applaud St.Mirren for thinking of their fans first but think our match at the weekend deserves recognition. 3rd highest attendance in Scotland during the weekend. Couldn’t make it myself but that’s some effort. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps one for unpopular opinions but i don't see much wrong with it, so long as you adhere to the general principles of no colours & keep your mouth shut. I know the old firm bring with them their own set of problems which is why clubs often only sell home tickets to those with a buying history but say i just fancy going to a dundee derby as a neutral, should i need to produce a 20 year old scarf to prove i belong there 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know what happened to the Falkirk tv coverage yesterday when I logged on it was Dunfermline tv that was showing the game. 2 fife numptys who could hardly speak ran the show. Lewis is head and shoulders above them just didn’t get why he wasn’t performing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
