  1. It’s a nonsensical idea. What happens? Does the ‘keeper get to pick the ball up unmolested? Is it a goal kick or a free kick. Is it a corner if the ‘keeper palms it round the post?

     

    Football is supposed to be a continuous game. There’s too much time wasting already. I quite like the goalmouth stramash that follows a partly saved penalty.

  2. Well observed, 26th.

     

    Mention of Kilmarnock and Dolly caused a peculiar memory to erupt to the front of my brain. I think that at one time long ago, many decades, Kilmarnock had a sheep for a mascot. Anyone with great grannies in Ayrshire to confirm?

     

    When Rugby Park was in grass the surface was lauded as the best in Scottish football. The sheep’s legacy perhaps.

     

    The ovine may have been good at manuring and trimming but mascot-wise his ghost wasn’t up to much on Sunday.

     

    Gordon’s league position calculation method raises an interesting proposition. Who would have been top if Hearts and celtic had lost more games and Rangers had lost fewer?

  3. How well I remember that cup final. I was baby watching two miles from Hampden as a result of a rash promise to let my sister and brother in law go to a wedding. In those days radio commentary was the last twenty minutes only.

    Did Kelly not concede the riot semi-final? I only saw news footage but it was about the worst I’d ever seen inside a park.

    This weekend I’d like to see some driving forward replacing a bit of the sideways possession. 

  4. No. It’s more complcated than that.

    Can a single “beneficiary” (ahem) a under a contract made on its behalf and on behalf of others by an agent enforce a condition of the contract where the agent fails to do so? 

    You’d need a squint at the contract before you could speculate and a bag of money.

    That’s why you’re right about Club 1872.

    Yesterday I went into John  Lewis bought myself one of these digital wireless things and the grand son has it set up so I don't get this horrid station  only the ones I want .

    Does your new wireless get the McFlannels, Compo?

    I use the Israeli example because I think along with the RC Church, you have two of the most powerful three such blocks that exist.

     

    There is a difference, though. Israel says don’t mess with us and we’ll leave you alone whereas Holy Church and the servants thereof must strain every sinew to bring about the conversion and redemption of the sinners of the world. I don’t believe there is a Jewish eqivalent of the Society of Jesus.

    I read your post as an admonition that all people(usually Protestants) should hang their head in shame if they utter FTP as their is no justification for it in society

     

    Put this another way, Barca. 

     

    You listen to an arguement from a republican making apparently reasonable points about the abolition of the monarchy but nonetheless you profoundly disagree. He ends with a defiant FTQ. 

     

    Does that not give you the chance to avoid his reasoned arguement by saying you don’t need to engage with someone who resorts to meaningless abuse?

    To compete at this l;evel, and at EPL top 4, a redd out is required

     

     

     

     

    More than one red out, I suspect.
