That was, instinctively, my reaction as well. I mean, I have no idea if Stephen Frail is a good coach or not but having just had a swatch at his LinkedIn it feels like a choice that's been informed heavily by recent mistakes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting he's asked directly about Riku, talks about Tomoaki, covers Max Johnston and as @supermarv says confirms that we've agreed terms with his new assistant. Exciting. I got nervous when he started to scratch his forehead, however he did say that the injured players had markers to hit so this may see the end of Lamie’s diagonal punts to that guy in the Hunter stand with the parka on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezz Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Came across Tommo on twitter the other day. He seems to be having the time of his life, particularly when it came to the Japanese food section in Asda. On Frail, no idea if he’s a good coach or not, but as others have said an appointment of this sort feels like at least an attempt at learning from previous mistakes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I need to know that he knows Malky Mackay's dad? Not really, but it's a bit more interesting than Grezza or Hammell's shtick. That was always what I thought about Craigan when he gave his reserve team interviews and what I always thought about when he was a shout for the full team job. 5 sentences when 1 will do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirkySuperSub Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Laughing at someone actually taking a photo in Asda and posting it on Twitter like it was some kind of world food mecca!! Reminds me of the story in the paper years ago about the German guy who used come to Motherwell on holiday just to go to the (now long defunct) pub (Brandon Bar?) at the underpass leading to Brandon Parade, as he went to it when he was over here with Dortmund in the 90's. #MotherwellOnTheMap 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We nodded and moved on. Could have been him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely seems to be having a lovely time. Living his best life. Absolutely fair play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like the dalziel arms, which has tried to open under a couple of new names since it shut and failed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye the auld Dalziel Arms. Went on the supporters bus from there a good few times back in the day, including to the 91 cup final. Always interesting. Sure i remember being on the M74 on way back from Hampden that day and guys up the back removed the rubber seal and lifted the full back window out, hanging out it waving when the team bus passed by wi the cup on it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handsome_Devil Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Udon is cracking tbf. How the Brandon still going is beyond me...only been once and lucky to get out alive quite frankly. I assumed the Dalziel a solid if gradually failing business due to the age of the clientele with a new winning formula not yet found. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I popped into the Brandon Bar on way home from Scottish Cup Final 2011 - (purely as I was bursting for a pee!) - was just me and misses, I was wearing all black, including a black 'Well training jacket...literally 30 seconds in, big scary fella swans right up to me - "are you a copper mate?!" - cue to sink pint and get the f**k out!

Maybe @rowsdower can confirm. I got sliced sausage from a Scottish butcher in LA and told everyone in Christendom. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
