I thought King played well tonight. I wonder whether he could do with a loan spell next season. Barron and Conway also impressed

Very comfortable performance so far. 3-0 at half time. Great goal from Doig for the opener. Everyone playing well.

im not sure what a gammon troll is, but I am certainly not a unionist. I rant about the Snp and the greens because they are clearly unfit to govern. It’s like playground politics, pet projects without a sense of reality. I fundamentally disagree with their policy making and waste of money on stupid things like this when money should be spent on defence and the economy. They just aren’t very bright - I have no respect for them.the UK government policies may not be popular around here but they are at least more competent.
That last sentence...are you really sure?

I was knocking on doors last Friday and delivering leaflets, got chatting to a more senior citizen. Had voted SNP and wanted independence but not keen on Humza. When I asked why she said he was trying to change our culture. Asked her why and it boiled down to alarmist headlines about SNP trying to ban porridge!

There's a lot of bitterness towards Scotland of late, especially from Ireland and Wales.
Are they upset that Scotland aren't push overs anymore?
I see that Ugo Monya features in that article, is he ever off the tele? He's done very well in the media for a player far removed from legendary status.
Have they ever considered that Scots like beating England so much because the England, boosted by the media come across as arrogant and full of themselves. I'm absolutely certain that's not the case for many of them but it's the image they project
Having said that there's some truth in what they say. We can't just beat England and congratulate ourselves when we then blow it against Italy and France (and very nearly blew it against Wales as well).

For sure. The SNP will splinter into a couple of different parties I think and obviously they will need to take a whole new look at who they want to appeal to politically. The former unionist parties would then have a new choice to either embrace independence and set its sights on improving an independent Scotland or fight for re-unification.
Might even be a multitude of parties under PR with coalition governments being the norm a la Scandinavia. People with different views having to work together for the common good, may not be the worst thing.

As strategies go it is totally pathetic - unless of course between now and the GE there is a massive upsurge in the Tory vote within Scotland (There wont be)
You only have to look at the polls to see what the danger is - daft cunts in Scotland thinking British Labour is the answer
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

Andrew Bowie trying to equate kick the tories out to a hate crime
I have some reservations about Humaza's phraseology but is it really any different to saying Tories want to kick out the SNP?

Yip, some people on here seem to think he doesn't belong at that level, but he's invariably the best player on the park in the big games. The stats would probably show he was again today. Vital clearance that led to the winning goal, slide rule assist and the opener, all against a very good side.
Lot of Man Utd fans ought to eat humble pie when it comes to McTominay, he's got them so vital goals this season.

Appeal rejected.
But in true staunch character they've released a statement full of utter nonsense 😆 🤣 😂
I'm just slightly puzzled by the whole language of 'demonstrate' and 'demonstrating'. Normally that's in the context of 'demonstrating' against something. What exactly are they demonstrating against or are they just demonstrating that they're a bunch of numpties?

On the BBC website, I presume the debate was today:
'Speaking during a debate on safeguarding the union, Lord Moylan said: "We remain a voluntary union and that voluntary union is essentially based on affection. We are attracted to each other."'
I wonder if any of those esteemed Lords pointed out the blindingly obvious fact that this cannot be a 'voluntary union' so long as members of that union are not told how they can leave!

So if I understand this correctly MPs can't meet with people trying to overthrow democracy by violent means but the Government is happy to take money from people who want to kill democratically elected MPs.

Just had a crown fitted and a filling. Feeling a bit battered but cost me about £150. Just checked prices for NHS dentistry in England and it would have been well over twice as much. I'm just posting this as I think there's a lot of people in Scotland who don't realise some of the differences and take a lot of stuff for granted. We're so bombarded by a biased media it's easy to assume everything in Scotland in worse than down south.

I have just read about this. It is absolutely outrageous that anyone is trying to excuse it. If this was a regular Joe in a company and he spoke about anyone like this in a meeting he would rightly be condemned and probably sacked .
No one seems to be mentioning the executive he was talking about that led on to Dianne Abbot, that is terrible too.
The fact this guy is the biggest donor to the party that has been in government for 15 years. AND has an OBE , only shows how far politics has sunk in the UK.Assuming this is true there is no way anyone can try to defend it.
Sunak needs to sort out his own party. Hester, then you had the contestant in University Challenge getting death threats because of a big mouth MP, Keegan saying she'd have punched Ofsted inspectors. For a party that claims to be concerned about MPs safety they need to set a better example.

Lee Anderson suspended by the Tories. I wonder if he'll jump ship and join Reform.
Got one right. Law of averages, had to happen some time!!!!
Not really going to help Tories as it will lose them votes. But it's a terrifying insight that someone like him could rise to such a high position in the Tory Party.

Other than that did you enjoy it ?? …
Of course its over dramatised, these fly on the wall shows are all like this. I enjoyed it despite all that, I thought it brought up pretty pertinent questions about the ability of jurys on trials like this. Over dramatic or not I think jury members are absolutely influenced by things other than facts.I'm with you on that. They used the actual transcript from the trial. They obviously sped things up a bit, edited things out. Iirc it was meant to be a four day trial, not less than four hours! Nonetheless, and the lawyers also said this, it gave an insight into the jury system that we usually aren't privy to, and raises some serious questions about it.

Rumours kicking about that McInnes is going back to Pittodrie.
Even more bizarre if that turns out to be true.

To kick start their season they have to play with the same desire, aggression & belief they showed today, they also need the same bit of luck they had with the deflection for the 3rd goal, one of the problems all season is the lack of attempts on goal & attempts on target, you don’t shoot you don’t score. They need to play on the front foot further up the pitch because we can’t defend.
Even when you were 3-1 up with minutes to go I felt that there was every chance you could blow it. On the plus side I thought Hoilett played well but I'm guessing he must be gutted now that Warnock has gone.

Its a step up from her childhood dinners at the West Primary school in Paisley thats for sure, even on days caramel cake and custard were served.
This sadly doesn’t surprise me in the least.
Aye but what about Mathieson's roaming charges...?

A very large section of the support have worse than negative feelings towards him, he’s an obnoxious divisive prick.
I think that's a pretty universal opinion except for Celtic supporters. Aberdeen will have to make an announcement in the next few days otherwise they're going to look really stupid. Strange timing, this might have been the result that kick started their season.

I'd agree with Johnston. If we're not going to get Livramento I think he's next in line at right back. I also quite like the look of Mellon, I don't know how he's done at Dundee but I thought he looked quite lively when he came on and nearly set up McKinnon late on.
