Ginola and Taffarel itching to get back into it. Thierry perhaps still has regrets about being rejected (allegedly) by Alex miller/ Roy Aitken

Dons player scored. Bigger shock

Think that one may be lost on the Kid(s)

Do wonder if a much larger crowd would have turned up at Bramall Lane tonight had the game been played tomorrow, saturday or sunday. 6126 out of a possible 31000 (£15 for adults) with the commentators suggesting it may be because it will be -6C at 2am. Nothing to do with a 7pm kick off on a Thursday and the game being on council tv then

For all the suggestions about great team spirit/ atmosphere in the dressing room early in the season, this group of players really doesnt seem to cope when things start going wrong.

PS for some reason there was a guy with a seriously Pro level TV camera moving about the away end filming the thistle 'ultras' from various positions. Perhaps Danny Dyer is bringing out a new documentry?

Took in todays Morton V Partick match finally ticking Cappielow off the list. Seems the wannabe casual movement among teenagers is gaining momentum with the bizarre spectacle of an attempted battle in the Cowshed between the respective young teams. No cops inside the ground and the stewards being volunteers meant it escalated to the 'fuck we didnt think we'd actually get close enough to fight.....can someone please come and tell us off now?' All calmed down when I presume Morton made a phone call and 2-3 local mums turned up in hi vizes and stood in the gap staring angrily at them On the pitch not having VAR made such a difference making the match actually entertaining despite a fairly strong wind and intermittent monsoon rain. Partick woke up after Morton scored equalising and then looking the more likely only to give up with 5mins to go and then concede in injury time. Post game the young teams tried to start things again but as before werent serious and were easily stopped by 3 cops ie they ran past them onto the bridge but then stopped to wait for one of said coppers to walk up the steps and tell them to stop being wee fannies. And apparently as with SEVCO and tic fans, Thistle's mob also think I look like an undercover cop VID-20241231-WA0010.mp4

Suspect he will still get at least 3 more manager gigs in english leagues before ending up in the national team backroom staff

Quality bbc reporting

Is there some sort of 'Red Dwarf luck virus' that infects Dons Managers for 10-12 games? Robson had a decent run then fell away sharply. Now it's Thelin's turn

Living it up in London town at the mighty Orient

Recall one good save against Dunfermline to stop them going 4-1 up (lets not talk about the 3 other goals) Magennis and an OG got it back to 3-3 with Mawane heading just wide in last minute.

Need to demolish RDS for that. Plus doubt the area of concourse behind it could be reduced without the capacity of the RDS replacement being lower

That idea ended up with a braga style stadium although looking at it 9 years later I think its pie in the sky thinking unless the 'new merkland' had alot of glass to maximise the natural light around it. I wonder if this will also end up on Twitter?
