inverness down to ten. Second yellow for simulation. Still 1-1. The boys running rings round them at times.

HT 1-1.

Equaliser a deflection. Typical jammy caley.

Lads playing good football in terrible conditions which will take a lot out of them.

Great strike too, looks like we've got a bigger support than the home team.

You should know as well as I do that caley fans don’t go to games. Neither of them.

Are United well connected at UEFA?

Some good matches this week.
 

Wolves 1-2 Leicester

Southampton 2-1 Burnley

Norwich 0-4 Liverpool

Villa 1-2 ‘Spurs

Chelsea 0-2 United

And in the Championship, Baggies 3-2 Forest.

Well that's that then  

You were right about loan back, though.

The time for Allardyce was when Rangers were in League 2. A bit of iron and a bit of determination instead of McCoist’s happy clappy stuff.

No views, really. Gilmour doesn’t play for Rangers. Chelsea are not a club I favour despite some excellent football over the last ten years. Scotland international football has no appeal.

killie are nowhere as good as they were in my day with a half back three of Murray Mcgrory and Beattie

Very true. Jimmy Brown in goal (booo) and an inside trio McInally, Kerr and Bertie Black.

We give these middle of the table teams and their pitches too much respect. Take control and sweep them aside. Don’t saunter about. Pressure them into losing their defensive formation.

Agreed, we need a heavyweight ex-politician as Chairman.

Gordon Brown’s signed for Raith.

Much better. I wonder who writes the Club 1872 statements.

IMO, Jim Traynor is the Peter Van Vossen of statement writing

First thoughts, brilliant comparison. Second thoughts. Van Vossen was actually a good player.

The statement wasn’t great. The intention was good but very clumsily expressed. Don’t tell people to take a look at themselves. Tell them they are wrong and tell them the consequences of persisting in their conduct.

Its another dig because they can't bring themselves to use the name and now refer to the "Glasgow Derby".

 

 

I don’t like “Old Firm”. Who wants to be associated with them?

Just say celtic. Why not? We know who they are.

Manchester city  are also playing 

Doh!

City 5-0 Hammers

I thought Gribz might have been on to give us a steer on what to avoid but with a truncated programme there are fewer chances to be wrong.

Everton 3-1 Palace

BHA 0-0 Watford

Blades 2-0 B’mth

I suppose I must be a guilty person because I used a lot of influence on some planning committees,  even some Brown envelopes. 

Expect a thunderous knock on your door at 3am tomorrow.

Not too late to edit out your two posts.

I agree with compo, number one is number one - Baxter.

Not on display is the all time greatest, the Iron Curtain plain blue shirt, white buttoned collar.

Don't forget Des Bremner, who, I think, also went to the Villa from Hibs, and lifted a League Championship, and a European Cup. 

I had forgotten Bremner. Started at Deveronvale! All downhill after that.

A bad disciplinary record, I believe. 

Was Alex Cropley another around that time? Went to the Villa, I think. 

Cropley was round about that time, early 70s and as you say, went to the Villa where he did well. Peter Marinello, another gifted player, went to Arsenal but didn’t do much, too slightly built.

Hibs had a few seasons with some really good players. Peter Cormack a few years earlier was a big success at Forest and Liverpool.

Watching Hagi last night at times reminded me of a player I would have loved at Rangers  Alex Edward's a very clever inside forward who in my opinion never got the big club he deserved 

What do you mean, compo? He got a move from Dunfermline to the Hibs?

Good player. Bit of a temper for a wee guy. Played  in the same team as Stanton, Brownlie and Jimmy O’Rourke right enough.
