Bump

RIP

Now that's a call - my apologies for having missed this one earlier.

Pedro's body language is all skewed tonight, I reckon he's already gone.

Ryan Jack - WTF???

Notice that you lit the blue touchpaper on this thread without naming your own candidates. Come one then Hibee boy........

So lots of similarities then, by your own description. While I've not much to dispute with your description (hang on though, I didn't say I totally agree with your analysis), I'd still like to hear Mr Cove's opinion as a qualified neutral observer.

OK Cove, from your experience as a ref, tell me the difference - I accept that it wasn't a carbon copy.

Pena's tackle exactly the same as Erskine's a fortnight ago - Erskine red, Pena yellow. Don't you just love the SPFL.

Gio inbound..............

Yep - next dodgy result Sevco have, Barry Ferguson and Kris Boyd will be on Sportsound saying that these foreign coaches don't understand Sevco's history (sic), and that they need a real Rangers man to come in and change the regime. Gio van Bronckhorst anyone?

Newsreader: Sophie Raworth Weather girl: Naz Kirsty McCabe has a lifetime pass due to her reference one Saturday morning in 2006 to 'the fine weather for Kilmarnock's visit to Castle Greyskull this afternoon' which despatched the cornflakes from my mouth to various corners of the front room that I didn't know existed.

They are. To clarify, my comment was a flippant one - Brown was a stick on for a booking v Marek Hamsik had he played, therefore he was a certainty to be suspended for Slovenia.

Acch well - look on the bright side, at least Brown won't be suspended for Slovenia due to a daft booking v Slovakia. McGregor straight into the team as direct replacement for Armstrong please WGS. Darren Fletcher for Brown seems logical.

Hibs v Tribute act tomorrow?? Haven't Hibs already beaten them this season?

The Belgian League had four teams qualify for the Europa League group stages last season, three of whom qualified for the knock-out stages, two teams in the QFs (one of whom beat the third Belgian qualifier in the last 16), and has a team in the CL group stages and EL group stages this season. By contrast, Scotland hasn't delivered two teams beyond the qualifying stages of both tournaments since 2008-09.

Ancelloti binned by Bayern. I guess Celtic will be hoping it has the same effect on their forthcoming CL game as Anderlecht firing their coach two weeks ago had on last night's fixture.

Celtic to win. Anderlecht are in disarray this season.

Hope this doesn't mean the return of Billy Dodds to the airwaves.

Aw Nooooh! Does that mean even more Ormond, Shed TA, Parklife, PASTA Mick, thplinth, Donny, Toepoke, Squirellhumper, Dalgety Bay TA, PIAK, Renfrew Blue, aaid, Mox, Macy37 et al?????? Aye ok then.

He decided that if he was the attacker it was a penalty. It stopped well short of saying it was a penalty for Sevco, which it wasn't anyway. Watching Sevco's last three games have comprehensively proven that Morelos goes down faster than Elizabeth Taylor's underwear ever did. On the same subject, Andy Walker (there was contact so he's entitled to go down) is an absolute a rs e. These kind of incidents wouldn't merit a second look anywhere else on the park. He wants to make football a contactless sport.

You're perfectly entitled to disagree, mate, but it doesn't change my view. Enjoy your victory tonight.

No mate, you give over - I didn't imply that he was faultless did I? He was hardly George Connelly but it was an impressive full debut against a decent team - is that better?

His debut was at Firhill the other night. He's clearly a prospect, though. Very composed in the tackle and in possession.
