Love you too big guy

Given that this conversation has veered away from even a token association with football and seems to have become just an airing of assorted prejudices, isn't it time this embarrassment of a thread was moved to "off topic"?

tbf, we perceive Peterborough to be pish. Here's hoping Forrester can make the step up from League 1

Forrester was one of the scorers when we played a friendly against St Patricks in 2014:

Difficult to judge reliability from that source, HITC is a grab-bag of groundless speculation posing as journalism. They had Wayne Rooney going to Sevco a few weeks ago.

I'd call the hospitality bar "Wiggy's Wallet" and then never open it.

Given Skrtel is meant to be on £65-70Kpw, presumably this means Sevco's highest wage offer was around £15K. Or to put it another way, fat chance of landing any of those names they've been touting.

Well there's a surprise - Martin Skrtel's deal to Rangers off as club 'cannot fund it'. The whole thing screams naivety on Gerrard's part and/or duplicity in what Sevco promised him.

Peterborough seem extremely keen to get shot of them, which hardly bodes well.

Good luck to him, but would say he found his level. Exeter's gain is our gain too.

It's just a rehash of the first "story" - they both come from HITC, who are about as reliable as a chocolate firegrate.

Hae to admit I struggle to warm to a player whose performances on the pitch led to actual imprisonment

I have a suspicion his Sevco managerial career will last for exactly as long as they are in both cups.

Or Duncan Ferguson, for that matter.

FIFY

I see the BBC story has changed from "stands down" to "sacked" and "relieved of his duties" after Sevco release their PR hatchet job. I have some sympathy for Murty too, although Sevco turning on him should come as no shock to him - he's unsurprisingly arrived at being the scapegoat that all Sevco managers inevitably become. Gerrard take note. If he's got any sense he'll tell them and their academy to do one.

That was a good example of the job Cosgrove was brought in for, physicality. Maybe there's hope for him yet. Overall the team got hold of the match after the first goal and Hearts had absolutely nothing to threaten with. McGinn was very poor tonight though, seems to be tailing off as the season ends. Three to go.

It was just an observation of something happening at the time. Chill.

Chris Sutton and Beechgrove McCoist can't find a good word to say about the Dons on BTSport, both look like they are sooking on lemons. Also just noticed they have a green and a blue mic cover respectively, subtle.

Nae jam.

well called

Had forgotten about this completely. Seeing as it is still open, i'll hae a punt on wild and groundless optimism 84 - MBT 83 - Nellie The Don 82 - EdmontonDandy 81 - rocket 80 - Ten Caat 79 - Big Al 78 - Rico 77 - Oxford Don 76 - Wee Toon Red 75 74 - Tyrant 73 72 - Elgindon 71 - manc 70 69 - Jute 68 - Tom Widdows 67 66 - Wi_09 65
