All the more reason to stoke even the faintest rumours regarding him. If there's any journalists looking in, Coyle has just popped in to a number of reputable betting companies' odds for next zombie manager at 16/1 and climbing. That's higher than Ronald De Boer who is at 20/1. Pass it on.

sacked by Blackburn for being too shite even for Blackburn. Next Sevco manager? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39044853

His team did win, it was the one he gets paid to manage that lost.

He demonstrated quite clearly what he was signed for yesterday - to give us a Plan B when Plan A is not working. Not sure he should be viewed as a Rooney replacement or anything similar, that's not really his purpose.

FT 2-1 Dundee.

41 minutes played, Dundee 2 - Zombies 0 I like today.

12 minutes played, Dundee 1 - Zombies 0

Ideally still a point more than Sevco get today

I wonder how much Barton won on that result

Also, kudos to the BBC for their seamless editing together of the fan phone video with their own footage of his departure, very nice http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/scotland/38994202

Just heard McGoo being interviewed on BBC:

Nae worries min I dinnae go to the Oxford games, but the stadium is on the edge of Blackbird Leys, a less than salubrious estate just outside the ring road that encircles the city. It's also next to an out-of town shopping precinct. Here's a scorrie's view. If the Dons fancy moving there, i can put a word in.

I'm not being snide, and my reply wasn't even to your post, it was to Garlogie_granite's post. For the record, I have no great opinions about the stadium location either way - it's been over 10 years since i last set foot in Pittodrie and that was for a conference. I definitely agree with the need for a new one for the club's benefit, but personally i'd prefer if they built it in Oxford. Don't heckle the pedants or you'll get a 14-page putdown.

He looked pretty bothered in the video slim posted

*cough* Pedant here again. Cyclists are allowed to cycle on the road (unless it's a motorway), regardless of whether there is a cycle path. Whether they may want to is a different matter.

7-2? FFS McGhee, you can't even get all the goals in the correct net. Clown.

4 feckin 0 We want 9.

Yassss. Hayes. I can go cook ma tea now.

Looks like it's just Weshill & Elrick Community Council rather than the shire council, or have I missed something? Regardless, absolutely small minded of them. Edit: I haven't read the minutes of the main document, just item 7. I read it, mainly because i'm a right pedant. There are no minutes because the Garioch Area Committee meeting in question is not until the 21st Feb. The linked document is a detailed consultation response written by Aberdeenshire Council Infrastructure Services, and includes Westhill & Elrick Community Council's own responses in the appendices. Item 7 on the agenda in the original post is for Garioch Area Committee to discuss the consultation response and see if they want to add their own points, before presumably the whole lot is handed over to Aberdeen City Council as a formal document. In terms of what those responses are, I've pasted Aberdeenshire Council's conclusion below. The TL;DR version is that Aberdeenshire Council have fairly serious concerns over transportation and parking, a few over environmental health, and some minor ones. They have recommended a holding objection on the planning application over transportation until these are addressed. However, they are not against a new stadium per se, they just want to see it done properly, and they sound a bit peeved that they weren't involved (as they should have been) in the application process as part of the county-wide SDP, which still reflects the previous site. If you read Westhill & Elrick Community Council's own responses in Appendix 3 though (which i haven't pasted), it's pretty clear they dinnae want it at all in what feels a fairly NIMBYish tone, although some of the points they raise are the same as Aberdeenshire Council and are just as valid.

Loan Summary for w/e 11/2/17: Smith and Storie both had starts, and Cammy scored one, in St Mirren's 3-2 cup win over East Fife. Yet another clean sheet for Danny Rogers in a 3-0 win over Dundee Utd ( ), another start for Shankland in Morton's 1-0 win over Raith Rovers (but nae goals). McKenna was an unused sub for Ayr's 1-1 cup draw with Clyde, while Thomas wasn't picked for Montrose's game against Arbroath. Plenty of time yet for the loon though presumably. Aaron Lennox still sucking soup through a straw, and Dumbarton had no games this week so no runout for Harvie.

9-0, all own goals by McGhee.

Selling Hayes to an English club is one matter, but I seriously doubt our board would have sold our best player to our closest (in league table terms) rivals halfway through the season for any sum. We're not Dundee Utd.

What, Reece Oxford who knocked them back for mighty Reading, that Reece Oxford?

The last away draw Sevco had in the Scottish cup was the 3rd round of the 2014-15 cup, more than 2 years ago.
