     Yet I'd say his rise to prominence in England his met with cynicism up here...the jury remains out. 

    Amongst who? The jury certainly ain't out with me - they guy is a class player. Look back at match reports for his first few Scotland games - McGinn was MOTM for a couple. 

    The problem is, as with most of our quality Scottish players, is that the manager, and I include Clarke in this, do not have a clue how to build a team around them and utilise their strengths.

    Dare I say, a good second half by Johnstone and Porteous at the back, actually looked assured as the Croats came forward.

    I reckon Porteous would have been in the proper squad by now had it not been for his knee injuries last season. He's not even playing for Hibs yet this season.

                               Marshall

                    Mulgrew.      McKenna

    O'Donnell.                                   Robertson

                             McTominay

                  McGinn.              Cairney

    Forrest.                                        Fraser

                                   Burke

    A few changes top that. Burke is not a penalty box striker - but he can work the wings, cut in and put in a wicked slide rule passes into the 6 yard box (as can Forrest).

    McNulty is a penalty box striker who would lap that up (which he hasn't been getting at Hibs much in the later part of the season). I don't know much of Brophy, but if he can work the 6 yards, then with Forrest and Burke, we could get goals.

    So:
     

                               Marshall

                    Mulgrew.      McKenna

    O'Donnell.                                   Robertson

                             McTominay

                  McGinn.              Fraser

    Forrest.                                          Burke

                              McNulty          

  4.                                No-Idea
    O'Donnell - Mulgrew - McKenna - Robertson
         Forrest - McGinn - McTominay - Fraser
                          McNulty - Burke

    I have never forgotten the awful "joke" at his expense that did the rounds when i was at school

    The one about what travels at 200mph and looks like a pork scratching

    Sorry for sharing - but it's something that always stuck with me because i found it horrible

    I agree it is sick, and you'd think we would have moved on in society.

    However, today I got sent a repulsive whatsapp - something to do with him being eligible for half-price cremation. 

    What is wrong with people!?

    Pish.

    Season has been a disaster from the start.

    Not sure I 100% agree. It has been largely pish, but did have some classic moments.

    The two big battles, although full of flaws and improbabilities, were pretty spectacular.

    If they had only used the earlier episodes better to develop story-lines instead of just being padded out filler, then it might have been better.

    The big difference with old GoT and the new GoT was typified last evening. As Jon Snow is getting accompanied along the docks, in old GoT he would have got his throat slit by an Unsullied who was disguised as a Black Watch guard. This all being watched on by an vengeful Greyworm. Instead it was a happy family goodbye with the Snows and producers and writers thinking of numerous spin offs with the cast.

    All TV shows suffer it when they get successful. Jumping the Shark.

    Yeah meant to be a bit of a shithole

    It might have improved since the World Cup, but we went before Lithuania Game in 2010, and it was a drab place.

  8. I think it is pretty easy to spot a new troll/nuisance on here. However, it seems to take a long time for others to realise it, and they start engaging with them - giving the perpetrator fuel to carry on.

    And for some reason it then takes the mods even longer to realise it themselves.

    Chripper was one. There is another, who I have on Ignore, but they still appear to be prevalent.

  9. His crossing wasn't great tonight, but he was threatening when running at him. 

    However, it seemed to me that Liverpool were favouring going down a crowded right side to get Salah involved when Robertson was in miles of free space on the left.
