Wouldn't surprise me if they do one for Durrant at some point though. The world class player whose career that was ended by the worst tackle ever in world football. Sally McCoist and Souness greeting at the camera about what could have been. Still makes me angry the shit Simmie went through after that day. A nicer bloke you couldn't meet.

They could have done Simmy, to coincide with his book launch. I can't think why they wouldn't have...

Even now, when the games actually matter, you start seeing a bit more edge and intensity again. Not quite 90s level where teams looked like they genuinely despised each other, but definitely closer. The Thunder look terrifyingly complete to me though. SGA gets criticism for the foul hunting but he controls the tempo ridiculously well and they defend harder than most modern teams. Agree on Wemby’s health being the big question. Talent-wise he could dominate the league for years, but that frame over an 82 game season plus playoffs is a lot. Jokic still feels like the most unstoppable player overall because he dictates everything without needing athleticism. Watching him dismantle defenses is ridiculous. Feels like he’s always three passes ahead of everyone else.

None at all. Etched in the memory of all daddies and which he is very much a part of. Thought they may have had the launch today too.

Only the five episodes available to me yesterday, which I did think strange. The hun or Tim thing doesn't bother me IF I think they were decent players. The Wifey fitba I have no interest in. Lots of players they could have picked from and we get that line up. Poor choices.

As I said, he played well yesterday and he had a big say in the game. However, he's a very poor version of Pape (on the basis that he was the last guy who filled this role for us), who I actually liked. He was actually chaotic but had some idea of how to control a ball, shoot and pass. Neither of those things can be said of Olusanya. We should be aiming for better in the summer.

Can't remember the club - it may be St Johnstone - but apparently only 70% of their season ticket holders turn up v the Old Firm.

3-1 now. Lovely goal.

Even with one side of ground shut atmosphere is brilliant. Corinthians just gone 2-1 up.

I think only folk who didn’t know about his drinking were Aberdeen board.

Wild end to first half. São Paulo equalised dropping Corinthians into relegation zone. São Paulo players bar one (come back to him) celebrate in front of Corinthians fans who respond with an avalanche of stuff thrown from stands including vapes lighters and sun glasses. One of São Paulo players gets hit in the hand so clearly goes down clutching his head. This starts off a mass brawl for which ref eventually issues 4 yellow cards. He is then called over to VAR monitor not to review the mass brawl but for the player who ran off on his own to celebrate as when he ran towards the Corinthians bench he was making a wankers gesture which is quite an offensive gesture in South America. After another long review no red card. Clock was showing over 60 minutes when first half finished. Now second half delayed as half São Paulo’s supply of bog roll has been lobbed on to the pitch. Big part of Corinthians ground already closed due to crowd issues and guessing after tonight they will get further restrictions applied.

Boston losing was a surprise, but Tatum was injured again and missed games. the spurs and thunder are a step or more ahead of everyone. Think the spurs have a higher upside and will be the best team in the nba soon enough, but not this year. Thunder are defending champions for a reason, plus I’m not sure wemby can stay healthy for an nba western finals series, 7 games in a short period of time is demanding. Detroit are a gritty team, I see them coming out of the east. Cade Cunningham is a stud, hard to beat his team over 7 games. Although saying that, the magic should have beaten them! Whoever wins the west wins the whole thing.

Aye, even I knew the rumours from his time at Huntly. Even without the internet.

I mind some of the ICT nights out when Patterson was their manager. Shearer had to bide sober to minder him. Him being Aberdeen manager is the most spectacular failure of due diligence in the history of due diligence.

Corinthians v São Paulo on Premier Sport now. 0-0 after 8 minutes.

The Cars - Drive

Think Thunder are winning Western conference seem miles ahead of rest. East is tougher to call. Surprised Boston were beaten by 76ers.

Half listening to off the ball yesterday but sure I heard Stuart Cosgrove mentioning something about some saints supporters not wanting to attend games against yon Tic and SEVCO due to their fan's behaviour and the authorities etc not caring. Perhaps Hearts fans have taken some of the tar from that brush?

Disappointing second half. Real better in the first half but Barcelona still comfortable. That’s Barcelona champions again. First time league has been settled in Classico. Ages of the team must frighten rest of league. A lot 22 or under. Still room for them to improve as players.

Absolutely. I moved here in the late 90s and the NBA was a competitive league. Teams hated each other, players were not friends. A little bit of nastiness was a good thing. Not unlike the SPL a few years ago. You definitely had flair players surrounded by the muscle. i lived in LA and loved the way Kobe played. He was a very competitive guy, not a friendly guy either. Loved the Lakers rivalry with the kings in the early 2000s, it definitely had a nastiness to it, players like ron artest and Matt Barnes too, they weren’t afraid to mix it up. the league is entertainment now, plus contact is a foul most of the time. All rather nice now. Not a big fan of SGA, too much of a flopper, but I do like wemby, big time player and only getting better. Hope he stays healthy. Like you, joker is one of my favorites, hoping the lakers get to pair doncic with him in the future! .

The Beatles - Drive My Car

Craig Gordon is the other one. And "Some Wifie" is Julie Fleeting, Scotland's all-time top international scorer. I think I will give this series a miss. Three Huns and two Tims.

I wonder if it's a coincidence that it is being released on that date?

Queen - I'm in Love With my Car

The new series of Football Icons on the BBC iPlayer. Henrik Larsson Davie Cooper Gary McAllister Some Wifie Chick Young A very mixed bag to say the least. Larsson was an excellent player at a higher level than Scotland too. Davie Cooper - was he THAT good? Seen him play from mid 80s onwards, never thought he was special. McAllister I really only remember from Scotland games, so couldn't say, but was never that impressed. Chick Young being an icon is a strange one
