Hopefully Garner starts tonight and plays the whole game, it's not as if he's coming back from a long injury lay off, bringing him on for the final 30 minutes isn't really good game time before we face them.

They wanted Real Madrid Ronaldo Bale and the exposure, Sporting Lisbon were in that group too, Liewell was sitting over there crossing himself a million times to be pulled into that group, we'd have got maximum tim coverage over that regardless of results. Thank feck Liewell's hail mary's fell on deaf ears.

The money... The money does what? OK it'll buy a couple of mercenaries playing virtually unwinnable CL games, these mercenaries will have SPFL games to play at places like Dingwall, Hamilton Maryhill & Inverness, how exciting! The vast majority of that money will just fill pockets. And good luck to shit.

Should we not outlaw this type of prediction Rousseau? Why don't we change the deadline for this to like they do in other comps (FFL ie) 1 hour before k.o.? Adds to the drama and offers advantage to no-one. :devil:

Nothing mentioned on the Scottish msm about this? Well done you guys, thoroughly deserved award for all your hard work over the years.

The bloke on his right just told him Miss A and Miss B want child maintenance.

Looks like Crooks and Senderos then if we don't secure someone else as I (along with many of the support) simply don't rate Wilson & Kiernan. It's a pity this is dragging on after 3 league games of the season. Still, on the positive side Joe Garner and a fully fit Martyn Waghorn could mean Francie & Josie could fill central defence for all it matters.

Big disappointment for Slaven Bilic.

Makes you wonder though about this Senderos signing? I think RAB when he mentioned 'panic buy' was meaning if we can't get someone else in before the window shuts then 'he'll do'...maybe I'm wrong. I was hoping last week that both Senderos and Lescott would sign up, Senderos being a 'back-up' to Lescott so hopefully the management are still looking for a better CH before the end of the month. Edit: Must add, I don't know who's the better player, it's just my opinion of the on-goings thus far.

Hope they do, then they can enjoy Thursday night football in far off places...but it won't happen.

I've only just learned of the full draw. Looking at it now, if I had seen the first 3 pots draw and was invited by UEFA to place the filth in a group of my choice, I'd have picked the one they got.

Looks on paper like Leicester City have won a watch.

Barca Man City & Gladbach...? Several CL goal feasts to enjoy.

Good signing for Dundalk, best of luck to Dean.

Tannoch my friend. Miller was 'ordinary' in his first stint, his 2nd stint was much better even although he had betrayed us by signing for them before that. This, his final stint saw him join a club in disarray from top to bottom, a change of board and the W&W connection has given him a massive boost. That goal on Saturday sums the man up for me. I'll never forget his goals at Hampden last season in the SF and Final, he delivered in those games. The thing about Miller, for me anyway, is his total commitment to our cause, the player has been exceptional and this rubs off on the younger players in the squad. There's a picture out there somewhere showing the sheer delight on young Rossiter's face moments after his late winner against Motherwell. Got to love him.

No...that's the title thread for the morning of 11th September 2016.

Won't take much money to replace Brown, but they won't do it.

Barrie will rip their right back jonka to shreds, terrible under pressure and we worry about our defence? Gordon the keeper (selected for national squad) is a keeper only by description.

There's only going to be one team in this league that will dominate C**t**. They've had far too many years of their own way.

If he had scored 297 goals for Rangers from his 238 games he'd be playing in Spain or for Man U.

No, broonaldo has retired. Wonder if Wallace has told Strachan not to bother selecting him? Can't think of any other reason not to. Lee and Barrie are a great pairing who like to get forward.

I think it's only a matter of time before we start giving teams a right good hiding that our play deserves, Joe Garner will relish the chances we create (I hope). FWIW, wee Rossiter is fast become my favourite player.

I'm sure the commentator said 'that's 7 seasons in a row where Sunderland have lost their first two opening league games! It could have been 'failed to win' he said.

While this was going on.... Nico was doing this...

Most bears around me were puzzled that Miller wasn't taken off, he's old and can't last 90 minutes. I like Miller and to be honest I too was surprised he wasn't subbed after 60 mins though it didn't really bother me in the slightest, in fact as I say I like Miller and enjoy his effort and what he brings as a fan, just as well I'm not the manager or everyone else who sits as a fan. Thanks Mark, and thanks Kenny.
