Alfie Stewart been told his contract won’t be being renewed in the summer according to P&J. Seemed to be doing well at Inverness and well thought of by their fans.

As a result of numerous trips to San Francisco over the years I have developed an affinity for the various Bay Area sports teams including the San Jose Earthquakes in the MLS. They have had a good start to the season and haven’t conceded in their first three matches winning all three. Tonight is first time had a chance to watch them live. They concede after 19 minutes and are currently losing 1-0. I have decided it’s me that’s the problem. Not clueless managers or shite players just me supporting a team.

You could say the same about Russel Anderson, a mediocre right back who came good as a central defender. At the same time, I really wonder what Milne would be like at holding mid, ahead of tobers and knoester. At the same time, I wonder if Tobers is any good!

Milne's excuse is inexperience. With more and more game time, aggression is the one thing that is possible to build on. Considine was really weak when he first came into the Dons side, and he worked hard at being aggressive in the challenge. Milne has the physique, he just needs to use it. This is his first season of top flight fitba, and Robinson is the right type of manager to work with on that side of things. It looked to me like Graham had prevented him jumping by challenging early. I suspect a more experienced defender would have gone down to make sure they got the foul. He'll learn. I'd say it's been a decent enough season for Milne overall. There's been a lot worse at the club, and I hope we try to continue his development. I think he could turn into a really good player.

Banchory's Neil Simpson (nae oor Simmy) won GB's only medal at the Winter Paralympics. A silver ane.

Having watched it back you're correct, Graham jumped without looking at the ball (and as God said on Redtv it was a clear foul). However that doesn't excuse Milne for chickening out of the challenge hoping the ref will do his job.

Confirmed in a very cursory statement from the club. Nothing official about Leven or Birchnall yet.

Shania Twain - Man! I Feel Like A Woman!

Blue Mink - Banner Man

Unusual for a Goodwin side to lose two late in the game.

Dundee score 2 in time added on. Finished 2-2

The Fatback Band - Mister Bass Man (A very fine slice of funk)

PInk Floyd - Sorrow

United 2-0 up in Dundee derby. First was never a penalty.

Doc confirmed on Premier Sports that he was away and that his contract was always going to end as soon as a permanent manager was appointed. Understandably, he wasn’t asked and didn’t speak about Leven or anyone else.

Any browncoats on the board? Words cannot express just how happy I am to get this news https://www.instagram.com/reel/DV6Js56jT3F/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

That Hearts team has the number one attribute you need in any good side - a strong spine. Solid reliable keeper (2 actually) Solid reliable CH’s (4 actually - all 4 would walk into our team) Solid Centre mid (Devlin is great in this league, Baningame complements him well) Good focal point up front in Shankland (Nisbet could potentially do it with the right players around him). It allows their full backs, wide and flair players to do their thing and by fuck its worked this year. Its the first thing Robinson needs to address, but I’m sure he doesn’t need me to tell him that…

Hearts center back paring isn’t the only solution though, it does not have to be two bruisers. I’d prefer we had that with Frame and lobban on the outside, but it could be knoester and a Matty pollock for example. It’s hard to find one central defender, never mind two. I’d compare knoester to Liam scales, not a brute but technical and competent. I feel knoester is being unfairly criticized because of the shit around him, he’s not had a stable central defender or left back, or holding mid ahead of him.

Thank you both - you have brought me back to my senses. Fuck the Huns, fuck the 6 points gap. Come on St Mirren (edit: oh, it's all over)

Aye fair enough, I initially interpreted it as you meaning that we possibly wouldn't be renewing his contract and that's what caused me to respond like that. I also agree funnily enough with your comment regarding Hearts centre halves but TLG is also correct saying Knoester is our most competent centre half currently

All about opinions of course. He’s a good footballer, but IMO he just isnt aggressive, physical or dominant at the back at all. None of our lot are tbf, that’s a big part of our issues. Put it this way, Hearts success this year has been built largely on a rock solid CH pairing of Halkett & Findlay. They are not silky soccer players, but they are everything you want in a CH pairing up here - strong, aggressive, dominant, positionally sound, great in the air. Both would walk into our team ahead of everyone else we have because they have all the attributes you need for this league, our lot just don’t…

Don't agree with that 2bh, Knoester hasn't looked out of place in this league from that pov at all to my eye.

He’s our best CH currently, but Robinson might not fancy him given he also lacks the aggression and physicality needed for this league. We are allowed to sell players…

I'm feeling a lot better about this than I did a week ago. Keep it tight for the first 20 minutes and the crowd wil start getting on their back, they don't look to be good with pressure at the moment so it would be all to play for.

Then get them playing fitba on the beach.
