buster.

We have 3 players on a booking but to incur a suspension it's 3 bookings. Candeias Windas Morelos

7 July 2011 Friendly Sportfreunde Lotte 0–1 9 July 2011 Friendly VfL Bochum 0–3 13 July 2011 Friendly Bayer Leverkusen 0–2

Malmo tie was mainly lost at Ibrox and then Whittakers early and silly sending off in the second leg meant we were swimming against the tide and going uphill ! We were doing ok in Maribor (first leg), 1-1 into injurytime then made a stupid error and ended up losing the game and the initiative.

We had a training camp in Germany where we were very unconvincing in the friendlies we played (3 defeats and no goals) and lo and behold, we took that same form into the Malmo first leg at Ibrox (another defeat and no goals) with a clueless looking McCoist stood at the touchline with his arms folded.

IIt's not the first time, I'm sure we were once linked with Rod Fanni.

His time at Ibrox wasn't worth 10 pence.

Part of the Newcastle Treatment Room Five who our CEO at the time, Derek Lambias (with absolutely no connections with Newcastle or their owner of course) deemed could join without a medical being conducted. The rest were so lame that beside them, Vuckic looked almost good.

I've always liked Beever !

Aren'y you thinking of Malmo ? Bit more than two weeks given we played our first friendly 19 days before the first leg.

That won't be enough. When SG talked about a serious lack of quality in the final third after the game in Macedonia, surely he did so with the full intention of aggressing the issue before the transfer window closed. Sadiq and Kent offer options but by hook, crook or the loan market, we need a splash of quality.

You are far too subtle !

Lawwell has been 'timing his runs' with care these past few seasons.

Dunfermline were guilty of various rule breaches. Spartans were guilty of a second offence within 3 years. edit / MeatonBones ".........Dunfermline's expulsion came partly as the result of fielding Calum Woods, who came off the bench in the second half of the 7-1 win at East End Park, despite the SFA's official suspensions list declaring him banned for the match. However, it emerged on Thursday that the Irn-Bru First Division club were guilty of further rule breaches, including submitting an inaccurate team line, altering a named substitute and not registering two outfield under-21 players.........." https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/scottish-premier/6989662/Dunfermline-kicked-out-of-Scottish-Cup-for-breaches-of-competition-rules.html 2008 Spartans officials will meet with the SFA after it emerged that both the Edinburgh club and Elgin City fielded ineligible players in the Scottish Cup........ http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/scot_cups/7773110.stm 2011 Spartans have been thrown out of the Scottish Cup for fielding an ineligible player in their 2-0 win over Culter......... https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/15672375

Mibbes aye, mibbes naw.............only how fitbaw politics develop and time will paint a picture !!

IMO Keith Jackson was right to point towards Morelos and call the situation a conundrum. Dependent on that conundrum and how it is handled, we may yet need two more 'strikers'.

Apparently there is new video editing software with a feature called 'polish a turd'. It's software that uses various sources, eg. Youtube and Football Manager to put together a visual info pack on players.

I wouldn't bet on us 'automatically' getting voted back on as per 'agreement'. Perhaps we should ask the new board to revisit the 'Shifty McGifty' matter.

Good point and it provides a chink of light towards potential group stages. Getting over the Osijek hurdle might be more difficult than a potential tie against Maribor given where we are in terms of 'readiness'. #IfsButs&Maybes

Alternative We are all Tit(o)s and don't do trips to the disfigured Yugoslavia. TC

Malansgob is actually Mark Allen but don't tell anyone I told you.

Europa League or Summer tour of the old Yugoslavia ?

If anyone, it's UEFA that is getting ahead of itself holding the 3rd round draw prior to the second round first leg It could be worse, Sevilla aren't there !! edit EL draw scheduled for 1400 CET ....(1300 UK)

If someone posts a link to google pics of the player without sight of anything else to link him then it's obviously a slam dunk signing.

A dangerous undercurrent is brought into a degree of focus. The extreme far-right want the same as the radcal Islamists, ie. chaos......because it is this that both their interests are best served.

I think the tie is very much up in the air and that it'll depend who performs on both gamedays, defends well, takes chances and gets a little luck here or there. I think the away leg this Thursday will be a difficult match and I can't see us suddenly clicking in Croatia. I think it might take a few weeks until we see some good stuff middle to front. One positive about the Osijek tie was that in neither leg against Petrocub did they keep a clean sheet. Last season, clean sheets were a feature of their 4 qualifying rounds European run.
