Disappointed for Arsenal but a great weekend for City. Just hoping Liverpool sustain their decline and that’s a Club I used to admire pre-Heysel and Hillsborough.

The scousers could be heading to defeat 

They got there. 0-1. 
 

Klopp must go …. oh wait.

£6M for Tav if the Saudi rumours develop into firm bids

Never in six million years.

How do we get rid off Tav and Goldson?

they’re both still contracted for another couple of years 

 

Surely some hard-up Sheikh with a football club would pay £500,000 for the pair. Good bargain.

You mean the defence rests.

(P Mason of California refers)

Aye but Mason only rested after he’d kicked the blazes out of the opposition.

Rest as in the remainder: the defensive structure when we have the ball. 

Judging by observations on the run of play so far, I think the first impression of “rest” was the right one.

Only surprised they haven’t shifted it to Pittodrie.

4-0 the final score.

Strewth.

Rossi knew how to score goals. The 1982 final should have been against France.

In the Europa League Atalanta take three off the Scouse at Anfield. 
 

Weep for Klopp.

This is how the Bernabeu now looks like all nice a shiny

What’s the construction, compo? Looks like kitchen foil stretched over girders.

Drysdale looks every inch a SNP cooncillor. Wee boys’ haircuts don’t look good in middle age.

It would have been nice to be top of the league tonight but in the circumstances I’m glad the game’s off 

Read plenty of them.

Ripping Yarns, you could say.

I’ve got the dentist at 2 so if the game’s off tonight, that’ll be one ordeal less.

On the ripping of football socks again

I hope Rangers take it off Cantwell's wages. That’ll teach him.

Daft fad. It will pass for some other idiotic notion next season.

Didn’t expect to see Ha Ha Haffey in a team of heroes, nor Dunky McKay but no quarrels with Bobby Evans, centre half in that lineup, nor any of the others. Three of the famous Ancell Babes there and Graham Leggatt. I wonder how many caps he would have won but for Alex Scott, then Willie Henderson.

Watched a man at Cheltenham races recently flying one of these drones with a video camera

Ban the use of drones for recreational purposes. License them for commercial use.

Souttar will do for now. He may become better with a more reliable partner.

New Stewartian rules for penalties: if you win the ball and are just about to exploit it, it doesn’t matter if you’re hacked down.

I struggle to see any logic to that whatsoever. Straw-clutching.

The occasional lapses are becoming too frequent. Tavernier and Goldson need to be replaced with defenders. When that’s been sorted look at the creative and finishing departments.

I have no suggestions for new personnel other than Shankland up front. I’m assuming we won’t keep Silva and may not be able to keep Sima. I’m sure Clement and the other chap will be able for the rebuild if they get a little bit of money.

How many Euros will Utrecht pay for Lammers? I thought we might have to pay them to take him off the books but he’s a scoring machine in Holland.

I think we can get a score draw at Parkhead.

I’m hoping you’re right but I doubt the team’s capability.

Either team can drop points against Hearts or Kilmarnock.

Very true. The question is how many?

I think they’ve had their bad patch and got out of it. 
 

I’ll feel better when Rangers win by five at Dens.

Arsenal have two difficult and two-half difficult matches. Neither City nor the Scousers have a game where they will have any trouble.

’Spurs feature in all three programmes. They will be determined to thwart Arsenal whereas though they will want to beat the other two,  the same intensity won’t be there. 
 

Cockerels kingmakers. Their manager has done well.

Never be reluctant to recognise real talent even if the shirt isn’t blue. Willie Bauld of the Hearts.
