You probably weren't around when Tommy Pearson was manager when consecutive bad performances were the norm. For instance we draw 0-0 with East Fife (then a poor 2nd division side) in the 1st round of the Scottish Cup and then lost 1-0 in the replay 4 days later. Though it did have a happy ending 'cos it led to the manager resigning and we got Eddie Turnbull.

Intuition, guess or are you in the know? If the latter, when?

You've got a PM.

Looking for a ticket as I bought one from a (regular) poster on Aberdeen-mad but it hasn't arrived. Assume he went on holiday and forgot to post it (haven't been able to contact him since) or it's lost in the post. Train and B&B already booked so will be travelling to Burnley regardless.

Liverpool fan at work today said Ward was going to be given a run as 1st choice after Karius made another couple of blunders in their pre-season friendly.

If that happens wouldn't be surprised to see Ian Wright try to lamp him - Roy Keane as peace-maker?

Well they will get a result but doubt if it'll be a good one. Very few cars/houses with flags at the moment down here but expect that to change tomorrow. Ah well, at least I'll be the gym to myself this afternoon.

Really? Looks OK in this clip (about 2:30min in) www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhU54Mh8clc

Because the English hate France?

Sadly if that was the case we'd have even more cry-offs that we already do.

Be great if we could organize a pre-season friendly with 'Pool.

You were saying...

Wish you wouldn't mention "live as" on Alba - recorded the last 2 (Thistle and Hearts) but watched neither 'cos piss poor games and results. Law of averages?

Naw, it's between us and the cheeks (for the next 90mins at least) ...Hibs are already out of the equation.

There was a cat invasion last week in the Besiktas v. Bayern game...Besiktas got fined and the cat was voted man of the match by the fans.

Harper and McKay

Just a well as neither Cooper nor Simpson were born in Scotland!

Disagree with you there, DD. Both my kids were born down here and my daughter, especially, identifies herself as Scottish.

Totally agree...if DM wanted to go the long ball route he should have held on to Stockley at least he could occasionally hold onto the ball or play in some-one...neither Rooney nor May are going to do that.

Not if they read this or Ab-mad

He also started very well as manager of West Brom but couldn't maintain it in his second season.

But why would Lennon come to us? If he's looking at Hibs as a stepping stone then he'd be wanting to go back to England. Personally I think that West Brom will keep Pardew to the end of the season 'cos they are resigned to going down and they might look at Lennon or McInnes as a replacement.

I'd guess O'Connor will play the holding midfield role for the next 2 games with Arnason back in at CB otherwise Chidi would have been given 30mins at least today. O'Connor, Arnason and Consi - not exactly blessed with pace!

Bit paranoid no? Unless you think Russell Anderson has been corrupted.

Any idea what channel no. Sky Sports Football is? I'll be trying to get our local sports centre to put it on (instead of the Manure game) but last time they we were on SSF they couldn't find it!
