  1. Past hour
  2. I am not sure if this hasbeen confirmed yet as cannot find confirmation online that Grant Hanley has withdrawn from the squad with an achilles injury. Also in the same article Steven Pressley who works in a development role at Brentford feels it is 'touch and go' if Aaron Hickey will make the Euros.
  3. Well if its anything like the opinion on here it is because he is seen as 'the chosen.one' by his predecessor. No more, no less. It is F-all to do with his leadership skills or persona as to why the SNP have fallen in the opinion polls and more to do with the hatchet job done on the party by the biased media who smelt the blood in the water over the Nicola Sturgeon scandal which as ywt proved to be groundless accusations and since then any thing they could pick up on such as Matheson running up a iPad bill they have jumped on. Those sort of things,are what have harmed the SNP polls and naturally you get a time after over a decade in power where people will buy into the mantra of 'its time for a change' but do not stop to think of the rancid options.
  4. The SPFL are opening an investigation into Dundees 3rd postponement of the season.
  5. I honestly don't get why he is so unpopular. I understand why sunak isn't popular but not sure where the dislike of humza comes from I'll tell you what doesn't help scotland. The in fighting with independence supporters. Cunts like yhe guy from.l wings had the knives out for the snp at every opportunity. That will never help the cause
  6. They'd be better off closing the Scottish parliament and forgetting about Independence for 100 years if the Scottish population is stupid enough to vote for Labour.
  7. Today
  8. I spend a fair bit of my time (through work) in England and frequently hear the locals far from enthused about the nailed-on cert of a Labour government in the next GE. Generally, hear quite a bit terminology like 'they'll be no better than the Tories'. Scottish yoons take note - hardly a glowing indictment of the Westminster political scene that you are so desperate to remain part of.
  9. This poll isn't clear why he's unpopular (it might be because people think he's a creep or it might be something else) but unpopular he is: https://redfieldandwiltonstrategies.com/scottish-independence-referendum-westminster-voting-intention-10-11-march-2024/ I can't remember Sturgeon or pre-trial Salmond ever polling so poorly. It's alarming too that Anas Sarwar - a man with the charisma of a wardrobe - is marginally ahead of him in preferences for next FM.
  10. Ferguson has played deeper when he was playing in Scotland, and he’s all over the pitch for Bologna. I think him and Christie would be a good partnership, both are good in possession, they’ve got decent physicality and both are capable of moving forward when the opportunity arises. I think they’d compliment each other nicely. I’ve seen every game Gilmour has played for Scotland and a decent amount of his games for Norwich and Brighton. I think needs encouraged to spend less time so deep for Scotland. His role at Brighton means he’s going to be spending the majority of games sitting deep. I think the personnel I’ve chosen and the 4/2/3/1 would allow him to go and get more involved in different areas of the pitch. I think he just needs a little encouragement and Clarke giving him some timely reminders from the touch line. Just my opinion.
  11. Yesterday
  12. Ferguson plays as an attacking mid in Italy. Would be slightly strange to play him deeper and play Gilmour further forward. Effectively playing each of them in each others position. Gilmour doesnt need to sit in front of the defence if we had a defensive mid playing beside him. If you watch Gilmour, a lot of his passes are sideways and backwards. Thats because he is moving around the opposition and waiting for the opportunity to pass forward. If he was playing further forward he wouldnt be making these same passes.
  13. I get what you are saying, but there’s something in the back of my mind telling me that playing Gilmour in this role isn’t getting the most out of him. If you look at the team I’ve selected in my previous post. I have Ferguson and Christie playing as the deep sitting midfielders in a double pivot. Although I have Gilmour in the attacking midfield centre position. I’d give him more of a “free” role. I’d give him the freedom to move where he feels he can influence the game. Sometimes that would mean dropping deep, sometimes staying higher up the pitch. I feel Gilmour has the ability to find and utilise space in an offensive manner if he was encouraged to do so. Maybe I’m wrong but I’d like to see him given more of a license to roam and get involved in different areas of the pitch, rather than spending the majority of his time sitting deep in front of the defence. I think this could work if we had a good solid midfield pairing like Ferguson and Christie to give Gilmour the freedom to move around the pitch and get involved higher up the pitch. I’d like to see if his ability to find space, his passing ability and his intelligence can be utilised in a more offensive capacity.
  14. I know no tunes about the hippocampus, but some folks that used theirs came up with some great films or tunes, or even combined two. Luckily, I can post this vid again as the band is called Tool 😋
  15. The reaction to the away top is divided - a bit like us to our home top General consensus that their home top is a classic The collar and piping on it makes ours look even shittier We can't even get a white away top to look as good as that
  16. Where you travelling from Robbo, could probably get it sent to you special delivery for Wednesday.
  17. Very strange considering both clubs have been involved tragedies, obviously the cretins haven’t been schooled on their own clubs history 🤯
  18. Not sure where I sit with this, being a cunt isn’t illegal. Can of worms 🤷‍♂️
  19. I turned my WiFi and mobile data off and can still access my ticket for the NI game. Presumably this will still be the case when the QR codes are available on the day of the game. I’m not saying using phones is necessarily easier but I don’t think it make things more difficult (assuming the app is stable and everything goes OK on match days). Giving people the option to print from the app would probably have been the best solution I suppose.
  20. Really? Any idea what the England fan’s reaction is? If we get through the group stage wearing that new shirt it will be a massive seller regardless of how pish people think it is.
  21. The new England strip emphasises how shite ours is
  22. He's doing a grand job for his constituency by working on nuclear jobs in Suffolk...
  23. Last 2x we have played there a lot have been on Dam square - even Rod Stewart came in the pub on the corner on one occasion
  24. Hi all My Dad is 83 and doesn't even own a mobile let alone a.smart phone, is anyone aware of any other ticketing options available to us for the upcoming home games other than the app? Cheers
  25. The only thing I can think of is the argument that even if Labour get in, they don't last long and you'll get the Tories back again. The only way to get rid off the Tories permanently is to vote SNP and become independent of England who keep foisting them upon us
  26. Cheers for the responses. Will hold in case there's anyone else in the same boat for the Hungary game...
  27. Fans arrested for tragedy chanting after the man United v Liverpool match. Interesting
