  1. Hopefully a more attacking line-up on paper means we create more chances in the first half. Got a feeling it will. Put the shooting boots on lads, don't be shy.
  2. I've learnt to pay little attention to timescales given for vague knee injuries. I'll be happy when I see the young man back kicking a football.
  3. Wrt European football, it is @Fat Eck
  4. Hearts may pick up some co-efficient points against the Latvians. ECL Gp.A Istanbul Basaksehir Fiorentina Hearts RFS Riga
  5. Wee aside Europa League groups A Arsenal, PSV, Bobo/Gimp, Zurich D Braga, Malmö,. Union Berlin, Union SG
  6. TV market pool is split, 55/45. The co-efficient money is determined depending on 10 year co-efficient. I think that we come in at 31st of 32 and this is what reduces our CL money to relative minimum.
  7. I get the logic but historic trends often (not always) end up continuing in a similar vein. We nearly always do well against Danish sides but never against Swedish, eg. Malmo. We do wonderfully against the Portuguese but can't lay a glove on their Iberian neighbours, the Spanish. Although against Villarreal, you can count on a draw (4/4).
  8. History tends to weigh heavier than recent form guides. Our record at PSV is excellent. Prior to Wednesday, 2 wins and a draw. Form suggests it would be difficult, we win again. Ajax, it isn't so good although we have tended to be paired with them when they have been flying. 70's after they won 3 EC's 90's after another EC
  9. Need to start making lighter work of this type of fixture. Ie. Being two or more goals to the good by HT and making use of 5 subs by 65/70 minutes.
  10. Could well be looking at the loan market for a level of quality, we can't otherwise afford. Downside is that it doesn't usually work out how we hope. - Powerful and energetic midfielder - centre forward - Right winger - centre half (depending on projected timeline re.injured) That'll dae !!
  11. Only scored the 9 goals in their first two league fixtures.
  12. End of a big week Celtic (A) 1330 CL Match day 1 Aberdeen (A) 1330 Stick Napoli (A) in the middle and that becomes some what challenging. Could do with a home match against an out of form team like Liverpool.
  13. Never in doubt, we were always going through !!! Truthfully, never saw a clean sheet and a win coming. USG (A) seems a long time ago now. First competitive defeat for PSV since mid-April First European away win since Dortmund Four away games at PSV, 4 different decades, 3 wins and a draw. 5 goals scored at PSV, all second half and all at the same end. Alex MacDonald, Derek Johnstone, Bobby Russell, Jorg Albertz, Antonio Colak and a mention in dispatches for Tommy McLean (3 assists) We left it for the last of 3 opportunities to get into CLGS but we got there.

  15. Leave it to me, I'm an expert in this 😁
  16. Signing a new deal in the vague hope we eventually realize some notional high value or that he changes his spots is for the optimistic, rather than the realistic.
  17. Foxy may have a cunning plan but it'll ultimately be about extracting value. Having owners/investors who were prepared to finance a structured loss was good whilst it lasted and allowed us to get back to normality. I hope they stick around. It is good to be able to trust those upstairs.
  18. I said a while back that this squad wasn't going to do much this season. It hasn't the balance or depth. Too many players who need managed because of age or chronic injury problems. Recruitment hasn't resolved these problems, at least in the short term. The whole shooting match is starting to look like a slow motion car crash.
  19. Left out due to fitness concerns and attitude. Senior players on board with decision. That is damming.
  20. Same goes for Goldson/central defence. Morelos should be sold but there would need to be a buyer and I can't see anyone offering more than loose change.
  21. No, he was doing his job.
