It hasn't done Hearts any harm. Mind you, the boy with the spreadsheet coming on board helped them a bit.

Obviously, you fell for an April Fool's, but as it goes he should be eligible because the five-year residency rule exists in other countries, but the home nations pact means he isn't. Instead, he needs to have spent five years at school in Scotland to be eligible, or have at least a Scottish grandparent. Never mind, Anthony Ralston will always be available.

Do we reckon the fans will get behind this lot and it’ll make a difference? God I hope so. I don’t buy into the idea relegation would be good for us.

Who would fall for that. Everyone knows it will be Russia.

April Fool's Day has lost its meaning thanks to the proliferation of fake news on a daily basis.

Ffs. Wasn’t even aware it was! Apologies

Amongst other football ones on the go today was one stating that Wales would be replacing Iran at the World Cup

No it doesn't.

Ah, I didn't think that was still a thing. The papers are useful for one thing then. Maintaining an unfunny tradition.

And today's date is what O.D

The weegie tabloid press do this before every important international event. It's bollocks.

Saw an article today that says Clarke is in discussion with James tavernier playing for Scotland since he’s eligible having been here 10 years with no England call up. Don’t see it anywhere else, fake news????

Possible alternative to Denmark winning Euro 92 despite failing to qualify

No, he’d just open by telling the massive hun that is Kenny Mac that Scottish fitba needs a strong Rangers instead…

I didn’t say Cormack’s tenure had Milne’s paw prints all over it. I said the fact we’re still shit at fitba did - and it does. The only constant in 30 years of mostly shit fitba and serious under achievement has been Milne. I don’t think that’s a coincidence, though Cormack certainly hasn’t improved that either. I agree the approaches are different, Cormack is light years better at the off the park and commercial stuff than the gype ever was, but on the park, still shite. I do agree Milne will have far less influence now than he did, but my point is he’s still there, he’s still clearly got some influence (otherwise why have a board at all) and we’re still shit at fitba. Its highly likely we’d still be shit at fitba if he wasnt there of course - the prawcess has been a shambles in the main - but I’d love to get the chance to find out. My main point is, was and always will be that Milne adds absolutely nothing of any value to AFC these days and should be nowhere near the club. I’m pretty sure we agree 100% there…

That's a pub quiz question in years to come

Did anyone here tell their kids "when the icer plays their chimes it means they're sold out"

Icey. Do we have southerners in these here parts! Hope you didn't grow up near to the chippy. Blinlemon will be near apoplectic!

Sweden finished bottom of their qualifying group without winning a match, but they're going to the World Cup. What a farce.

I had seen Morgan had moved to San Diego recently but not seen him mentioned as playing. Guald is back from injury recently as saw him playing in CONCACAF Cup game. Morgan did well in previous caps so sure if he is fit he would come into consideration if fit as would Gauld.

They missed a couple of chances to finish it but they are through now.

Both are or were injured, gauld had knee surgery, plus MLS season stated recently. I don’t really follow the league so not sure how they are doing, but I know both have done well over here. They may actually be fit and fresh for the World Cup, unlike many who have run to death and are at the end of their seasons. Clarke had them in the squad before so I’m not ruling them out, but we are desperate for creativity. Clarke has done well but with his favorites and the fact we have our talent in central midfield, to get the most out of gauld, Morgan, or a few other players would require changes in personnel formation and tactics.

Better team won

I have a horrible feeling that in trying to instil some fight into this motley crew of bed wetters, we’ll come out like men possessed and be down to 10 men inside 15 minutes. All aggression with no control or discipline. Aremu is my top candidate but could be Shinnie or Geiger. Yet another stinking chapter in the unadulterated shitshow we have descended into. 0-2 Dons. Yaassss. COYR.
