Im seeing the oshea boys name a bit. Is that just optimism or is there any substance to it?
1.) 28 Jul 2024 04:16:18
Hopefully. Credit where it's due, Scales has come in and done a job. But we should really be looking to get another CB in to partner CCV.
2.) 28 Jul 2024 11:43:00
Scales is a very useful squad player, like ralston is. Can play LB aswell. But we need a serious step up in quality to play beside CCV and signing oshea could give us probably our best CB partnership we have had in years.
3.) 28 Jul 2024 14:31:23
Derry Tim . I am seriously worried about CCV .
Is he another Mickey Johnson . . CCV missed most of our Champions Leagues a couple of yrs ago . He missed a third this season and even bigger percentage in SPL. It always takes him a couple of games getting back on form . Scales was available practically every game and that adds to his importance.
We can’t afford to play 2 games per week from start of August until end of year with a worry about a cb for every game . CCV was so much off his game last night, ok ist game since May, but obviously CCV has not done much ball work as his touch was terrible . You just can’t be a good team player if u are regularly unfit.

Hatate to Brighton. get your money on that one. ?.
1.) 30 Mar 2023 21:49:14
Sadly we all knew hatate would be leaving in the summer. I think Brighton would suit him for a season or 2 before moving on but I've heard there's a couple teams from Spain and Germany that can't be discounted.

Ok there's meltdowns then there's the newco nuclear self immolation with collateral damage meltdowns going on right now. We were bad. but not newco bad.
1.) 13 Oct 2022 08:27:23
The blame game will go on for months. They will try and blame everyone outside Ibrox. We went into this hoping to improve and learn, which we have. We are not far off it, take our chances and stay tight we'll be OK. We are a work in progress. They went into it expecting to get to the final. Don't worry a friendly ref will help the deluded this weekend, bet we hear Tav scores penalty this weekend.
2.) 13 Oct 2022 16:57:58
I will admit it's funny they lost but some off our fans are creaming their pants. We got knocked out the champions league but sevco got pumped out so it's fine is the mentality off some fans.
We should not be comparing ourselves to them, it was this attitude that held us back for years when rangers died. Fans were happy enough just to be better than them when we should have been out off sight going for 12 in a row this season.
Like I said it's funny I admit I had a laugh but I wouldn't celebrate it like some are doing.

Fully agree Dc7591. Couldn't care less about them.
4.) 15 Oct 2022 14:32:44
I'm just happy to see them get what they deserve. They was lucky to get past PSV and knew a tough group they would get the kind of doing we've been ripped for off them when playing against the likes of PSG. Doesn't heal the disappointment for me as our group got away from us due to endless missed chances. We should be on the brink of getting out a tough group yet we're out with 2 games to spare. It's tough but it's all a learning curve, but from where we was under Lennon to now is some hell of an improvement.

We haven’t even won a game in Europe this season and have created new record of losing 7 games in a row at home in this competition.
Let’s be honest Real Madrid are the only top side in our group there’s nothing much between the rest of us so instead of worrying about how poor they have been we need to take a reality check as I genuinely thought we would have great chance to qualify out this group and at very worst would be a clear 3rd but again we are nowhere near it.
All this but we created lots of chances is great if other team don’t and they scrape a win but Leipzig scored 5 over 2 games, had 2 ruled out and missed at least 3 1on1’s with GK and we lost both games by 2 clear goals.
Against Real we lost by 3 clear goals at home even though their main man was taken off injured. This Real Madrid side are beatable at this stage every season just ask Sherif or Shahktar who despite losing the majority of their 1st team in summer and don’t even have a home ground in their own country were seconds away from beating them this year but still drew.
We are actually proud to have played well for an hour and losing 3-0 is that the depths we have fallen to now that when we lose 3 group games 8-1 on aggregate we say yeah but we created lots of chances as if the opposition scored every chance they got because on that logic we would have lost 5-2 to Real Madrid, 7-2 to Leipzig and 5-2 at CP.
We did deserve to beat Shahktar and that frustrates me that we didn’t but losing ourselves in the comp to a team that heap of Sh** KO this calender year then slagging them for getting pumped is embarrassing.

Bayo to Watford for £5million. football is a funny business.
1.) 24 Jun 2022 09:31:23
We never really gave him a chance.
2.) 25 Jun 2022 10:53:48
Agreed I liked him.
He needed a run shame that.
3.) 25 Jun 2022 13:45:30
I think he would’ve scored goals for us, not sure what he was like behind the scenes which may have been the issue.
06 Jun 2020 09:31:01
So if Craig Gordon was offered a new deal and we are keeping Scott bain where does that leave any deal for foster? can't see us wanting three senior keepers.
1.) 06 Jun 2020 10:42:48
We had 3 senior keepers last year.

Evening folks. Just listening to Martin O'Neil debating the madness of souness psychology tonight made me wonder why he's me picked up another decent management gig. Anyone got any ideas.
1.) 07 Sep 2024 01:05:58
Oneill has struggled everywhere he's been really since he was at villa. He is a good example of managers not evolving their tactics and methods. His outdated tactics of 2 big men up top wouldn't work today. Mourinho is another example. He has struggled for a long time now too.
2.) 07 Sep 2024 06:27:41
Martin O’Neill’s players were big and strong.
They would bully other teams.
3.) 07 Sep 2024 07:21:50
I get you derry but then big Bruce gets another gig. Rooney and i bet even the mexican is still in a clubs bushes somewhere.
4.) 07 Sep 2024 11:30:22
I agree that his managerial record went downhill but maybe he still has a wealth of experience and influence that some club could use?
5.) 08 Sep 2024 14:57:24
Maybe a great Director of Football somewhere?
02 Sep 2024 23:00:56
Well that's me signed on for a super champ league beanie, and of course for the weans fitba. But that wee bunnet better be first classing its polyester lined self down here in time for halloweenie or a carpark of rageful Sevconian will look Disney compared to my frowny face. Conversely i was recently rageful in a hun carpark. Hmp albion car park after greenday. persons left us locked in after pocketing my tenner?.
01 Sep 2024 15:20:05
Wow. Big Phil reckons they were the better team for a few minutes and should have scored a couple of goals. Even the most staunch won't embarrass themselves by claiming something as ridiculous.
1.) 01 Sep 2024 18:42:04
The couple of goals he was talking about, would've both been ruled out for offside.
01 Sep 2024 15:00:01
Kris Boyd looks like he's going to explode. Mcfadden is basically leaning so far to the left he's on stillians knee and stillians thinking wtf is going on ?.

That was the biggest illiterate meltdown I’ve ever seen.

May as well finish with a totally unsubstantiated observation. Just noticed alexis beka beka is a free agent. Former 12mill player, had a wobble in life but cdm and why the heck not? not happening at 23 could be a good addition.
07 Sep 2024 15:29:35
Probably started on the pod?.

I only ever had the consoles for arcade type games. Was envious of all my mates who had the c64 spectrum and amiga strategy based games.

I bought an ebay firestick like emulator which was stacked with oldies. Its in my man cave/ child proof bunker im just finishing up.
{Ed007's Note - So they're worth it then PP? My PC plays all the emulators and I have an old original Megadrive & bought one of those mini-SNES and I'm planning on buying one of the mini-Amiga's but I might just get one of the sticks.
I was a bit spoilt when I was younger and could kick myself with the tech, gaming systems etc etc I just gave away because the next new console had came out and with a chest of drawers full of blue disks for the Amiga ??☠️
Let me know where you got yours mate.}
