  1. Doesn't matter who you support or who you "hate"...dementia is a fucking horrible thing to happen to anyone and you wouldn't wish it on your worse enemy. RIP Jimmy.
  2. There was a defender on the post so the lino shouldn't have moved. But he just guessed and fortunately for us, he gave the goal. As a former ref. - amatuer level, with no lino and sometime no lines - we were always told that if you weren't sure then you can't give it and he shouldn't have given it.
  3. Which is the argument that that goal in '66 was over the line, with Hunt immediately acclaiming the "goal". If the linesman (I know) yesterday gave the goal then he was presumably looking along the bye-line and taking into account that the post would have been in his eyeline, saw the whole of the ball which would indicate that ball was over the line.
  4. We didn't concede...that was a shock.
  5. Nope, still haven't found his level.
  6. Man city were obviously concerned and signed Harland up on a 9 yr contract at £500k p.w.
  7. Haha, was living down south when we played Brighton in a pre-season friendly (how times have changed), watched on in amazement as he was playing RB and thinking this guy has absolutely no pace, no awareness of what's around him and not a clue how to play RB. Anyway, apologies for continuing the disruption to the thread entitled "Transfer Window". (also no idea what Vujadinovic means)
  8. Every time I see there's been an update on the transfer window thread I'm thinking is it a rumour or is it a new signing...please be a striker, or another CB or a right- or left- back and then I find out that it's still another posting about previous CBs who were crap. Come on, mods. sort it out...I'm too old to be excited unnecessarily only to find out sombody arguing about who was worse Ifil or Bus.
  9. It's not how high Devlin's hands are its their positioning...even in real time everyone except Beaton can see they are both placed across his chest, below his clavicles - he should not have given the penalty in the first place and allowed VAR to contradict him if necessary, instead he gave a penalty which was always going to be overturned. Nilsen shouldn't have been marking their big CH...Ruby should have been the one picking him up. Yes, Polvara tried to buy a free-kick just as the St Mirren player did last season when their forward was chasing the ball, stood his ground and Devlin ran into him, that was a penalty and today should have been a free-kick to us, doesn't matter if he dived like a fanny (whatever that means), the point is Polvara had his body between the defender and the ball and he was pushed over.
  10. But it really shouldn't have been awarded in the first place...Beaton had a clear view as Devlin put his arms together across his body (big jessie should have controlled it with his chest and started a counter-attack (or transition as you youngsters would say).
  11. 2-2 now with 10mins added on time (or until the Hun score).
  12. Maybe they'll be prepared to wait for payment until we've been paid by the Hun for Barron...so they'll get their £700k some time in 2026.
  13. Does Jute get a lot of dates at Christmas time?
  14. Doohan, like Mitov and Roos before him, always stays on his line, whereas when the ball was played through to Boyle, Joe Lewis would anticipated that pass and have already been on the move to cut the angle - Boyle may well have gone round him and still scored but at least he'd have had a decision to make...out last 3 keepers make that decision easy. I didn't think McKenzie was fully fit...had a few opportunities to take on their full back but most times checked back onto his weaker right foot . Other teams have realised that one of our weak points is a ball down the channel...Malloy and McKenzie look at each other to decide who's going to go for it, then both decide to go for it too late...same on the other side with Ruby and Devlin.
  15. Listen mate, don't be ageist, because if you're lucky you'll be old one day! I don't need any extra Vitamin D - both my teeth are my own, my muscles are adequate enough for me to stand by the urinal for 10 minutes (and, because my ancient brain is still sort of functions) realise it, too late, should have been 15 mins), and my bones are OK-ish if you'll excuse the creaking sound when I'm actually mobile. And sliding the ground towards the sea would only increase the incidences for glacoma for us old guys. Apart from that, thanks for your input.
