At the pearly gates Kevin was overheard saying to St Peter “You can tell him now, we’re still fighting for this afterlife and he’s got to go to Hades and get something. And I’ll tell you, honestly, I will love it if we beat them. Love it.”

The Artic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor

So you were really thinking about the Somalian ref not getting into the country and Trump getting some made up award at the draw when you were watching the Scotland matches? Dinna speak shite.

The Who - You Better You Bet

The Beatles - Getting Better

Seemed like a genuinely nice chap and always enthusiastic about the game. Played some lovely football too

Absolutely fucking gutted to hear this. An absolute footballing hero of mine in the mid to late seventies RIP Kev

Kevin Keegone.

Electronic - Getting Away With It

You might notice that searching for old threads, classic matches or specific player discussions is running a whole lot faster today. We've just finished moving the forum's search system away from our old, standard database setup over to a dedicated engine called OpenSearch. If you haven't heard of it before, here is a quick, jargon-free breakdown of what it is and what it means for the site. What is OpenSearch?Think of our standard website database like a massive filing cabinet. When you used the old search bar, the server had to manually flip through every single page of every single thread on the forum, line by line, to find your keywords. As the forum has grown over the years, that process gets slower and slower. OpenSearch is essentially like hiring a dedicated, lightning-fast digital librarian. Instead of searching the filing cabinet on the spot. OpenSearch reads the forum continuously in the background and builds a massive, highly organised interactive index. The second you type a word into the search box, OpenSearch already knows exactly where every single mention of that word is across thousands of posts and hands you the results instantly. What does this mean for you?Zero waiting: Search results will now load almost instantly, rather than making you wait for the page to buffer. Smarter results: The new engine is much better at understanding intent. Thread titles are now given extra priority, meaning relevatn topics will bubble straight to the top of your results page instead of getting buried under pages of random chatter. Less strain on the server: Because search queries are handled by this independent engine, it frees up our main system to focus entirely on loading the forum pages smoothly, even during peak matchday traffic. Everything is already up, running and it is working through indexing the site. Give the search bar a spin and let us know how it feels!

James - Getting Away With It (All Messed Up)

It does affect the football. The ridiculous appeal for the US team, the half time show, what happened to the Somali ref, the Congo fan, the Iranian team, the Argentina banner, the peace prize, awarding the trophy… what World Cup were you watching? Qatar shouldn’t have got it either.

People get too caught up in stuff that does not affect the fitba, exactly the same as in the Qatar world cup. Who the president is in the host country had no effect on the watching of France v Spain. We pretend that we are o so perfect in this country and we are far from it.

That's Burnham officially got the gig as Prime Minister. He asked Charlie if he could form a government, and he said "aye, awa ye go, loon". This country goes through PMs like the Dons go through managers.

Berlin - Take My Breath Away

Gallagher & Lyle - (Break)away

John Moreland - Break My Heart Sweetly

Elliot Watt off to Turkey as well. Motherwell getting over £7m for both him and Just if press reports are accurate.

The Rolling Stones - She Smiled Sweetly

Charley Pride - She Only Smiled When She Was Happy

The Housemartins - Happy Hour

Jane Wiedlin - Rush Hour

Fabulous bit of business by Motherwell. Good to at long last see Scottish teams getting a decent fee for players. Looks like this one is worth more than they got for Lennon Miller.

Death Cab For Cutie - Gold Rush

Neil Young - After The Gold Rush
