Matadoro did well to set up the second.

They started it, buster.

You disappoint me, sir. Out on Doric’s western frontier, we uncouth folk speak about a baldy heid. I thought that in the leafy boulevards of the Broch glabrous pate was common parlance.

It is but the loss of his energy hasn’t been addressed.

“glabrous pate”! On a football discussion board! By God, this place is intellectual. Conjures up a vision of Friar Tuck.

But not untypical. Robson, Venables and Eriksson all came close but without double home advantage, couldn’t emulate Sir Alf.

@Gribz, old bean, from your legal studies you will be familiar with the term force majeure. @Rousseauis a force majeure so dinna greet and give us your views on rhe game last night. I thought that by modern standards it was a good match. Periods of tedium were laced with spells of very good football and a couple of really good goals. Who would have thought Germany would lead by two and not win, in fact come close to losing? They were less effective when Raum went off. England became effective when Saka came on. He might develop into a fabulous player with Real when they buy him. Overall, despite fielding a fullback by name of Schlotterbeck, this wasn’t a classic German side. England better find a centre half pronto. Billy Wright will be turning in his grave. So would John Terry if he were deid.

By God, sir, you’re right, sir.

England always have a lot of talented players to pick from, though maybe not quite as talented as some observers believe but only Ramsay with double home advantage has ever done anything with that talent. Eriksson and Capello couldn’t do it. If they couldn’t, who can?

1-2. Shields sent off first half, Buckie ahead in the second, Linfield score twice in two minutes.

Come on, man. He’s go a waistcoat and he’s a left winger. That’s all you need to succeed these days.

The manager may be a duffer but the players should realise that people pay to watch them play to the best of their ability. If they won’t, find some who will. Anyway, don’t they just want to win any game they are playing in?

In an SPFL Trust Trophy tie on 24 September. Not those hoops but Buckie Thistle. Green and white right enough but so far as I am aware no connection with the abominables.

We can’t so I hope they do.

You mean you don’t boil frogs after all? What a relief. Look, when the RSPCA heavies arrive just tell them I made a mistake. Ok?

buster, I rarely disagree with you on football and though we have philosophical differences of opinion in other matters they are pretty much within the parameters of tolerance. But boiling a frog! Come on, man. There are limits.

McLeod and Dundee United’s PR, graduates summa cum laude from the School of Weasel Words. McLeod told a lie. DU didn’t tell the truth.

Amended.

Could happen.

Correct in every word.

Never turn up your nose at three points but I’m weary of these endless nerve-racking match days which have been going on for years, even occasionally in the the 55, no matter who is the manager. Every Saturday should be a Ross County Saturday with the resources available. This is Dundee United not Southampton, Leeds or Crystal Palace let alone any bigger beast. They lost seven to AZ and even more to another team. Let’s hope Hagi recovers like Larsen and not Mols.

Apart from City and two or three more I think that’s right. Put Raith v Arbroath on at a big stadium with a full crowd for a bit of atmosphere and commentators and “pundits” alike would be screaming in exultation about similar mediocrity.

Come on, BSRT. Dundee Utd and their supporters haven’t had a chance yet to show their respect and loyalty yet.

Suptd. Stephen Dolan. hmmmm.
