would it perhaps be more interesting to add a further category 'what will you miss least?'

The World Football Cup has kicked off in London - Tournament for Nations not recognised by FIFA such as Tibet, Northern Cyprus, and for some reason Yorkshire. As an experiment the Refs now have the option of dishing out green cards as well as the usual reds and yellows Premise of the green card is the ref can send a player off but the team is allowed to bring another player on to replace him, essentially a forced substitution. They haven't explained the criteria for the green card so I am presuming it would be as an alternative to a second yellow for dissent and it would mean losing one of your 3 substitutions. The cynic in me reckons should this be adopted this would be the end of red cards for two certain teams

Just throwing it out there Louis Moult was plucked from mid table english conference and the consensus from many folk is last season would have been so much better had he turned up on Pittodrie in a red shirt. Dean Windass was plucked from a Hull City team which had just been relegated to league 2

Yer not the only one Also noticable that Madrid went to diving/time wasting tactics after the first goal only to buck up their ideas immediately after the equaliser. Really cannot stand spanish/ italian/ brazilian football

Glasgow police will probably be happy about this one Nothing to do with suddenly needing to find 6000 additional full price season tickets to plug a gap/ buy Gareth Bale etc

Be interested to hear from you if the Kiwi's have changed their licensing laws since the 2006 world cup. Was quite irritating being chucked out of their pubs just as a game was going to extra time although it was satisfying finding a nightclub 3 doors along from the said pub which was showing the England v Portugal match extra time and not taking the time to tell the angry mob of england fans who were threatening to riot on the streets of Wellington. Got to watch the game on a 14in portable telly hung on a bracket in the corner too so it was very nostalgic. Personally I reckon Russia will get pumped out of the group stages

Livingston Promoted. Partick were shocking over both ties and Connor Salmon showed that for all the hype he has had over his career he just isn't a goalscorer

If so I doubt anything will happen until 29th May at the earliest and depending on whether or not Coventry turn over Exeter at Wembley.

'The Young Person's guide to becoming a Rock star' box set now available on All4 Hadn't seen it since its original run in 1998 and its one of my favourite ever programmes. Quite fun spotting the areas of Glasgow, particularly the bits they try to pass off as London. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/young-persons-guide-to-becoming-a-rock-star

I like to think of it as a no lose situation Motherwell win - GIRFUY Celtic win - 2 weeks extra rest for Dons and less chance of a Bohemiens/ Skonto Riga incident. But I will be hoping its a Steelmen win. I like to think Rodgers grip on the SPFL is starting to crack and not winning the treble would nicely stock the paranoia of the Tic given they shipped 24points from last season and lost that unbeaten home record. Should they fail to make the Champions league (or better yet the Europa league) the natives will start getting restless.

Skip to 1:24

Freddy Ljunberg Roy Keane Kolo Toure Joey Barton Niko Kranjcar All turned up towards the end of their careers to much 'excitement' and press masturbation and were found wanting. One really robbed celtic blind too. But then again footballers are not known for their intellects. I do admire Defoe but my cynical mind says the EPL refs give alot of protection to their players which even with OF bias is not the same North of the border. I feel a certain Mr Brown & Mr Shinnie and most of the Motherwell & Hearts team would give him a welcome he hasn't experienced since his youth days. Torres ain't leaving Athletico Madrid for anything other than an MLS pay off. I had to google the other one

Watch english lower league football for a season and then make a judgement

Partick staring relegation in the face 2-1 defeat away to Livi tonight and supposedly they were shocking. Livi's away record is better than their home record too

Finished with 4th Best Attack (after Sevco, Tic & Brazil 1970) and 2nd Best defence (after the Tic) Scored 18 fewer goals (Dingus being punted by Motherwell didnt help ) and conceded 2 more than last season. For the other clubs the tic ended up scoring 33 goals less than last season. Here's to that trend continuing

Alloa promoted to the 'Championship' Scored their 'equaliser' in the 93rd minute then got the winning goal 5mins into extra time.

Strikers: May 5 Rooney 11 Storey 1 Midfielders: Christie 8 Mackay-Steven 9 McGinn 2 Mclean 11 Ross 1 Stewart 3 Shinnie 4 Wright 1 Defenders: Arnason 2 Considine 4 Logan 2 McKenna 2 O'Connor 2 Reynolds 1 Own Goals: 1

Orrrr The draws with Hearts (x2), Kilmarnock, Hamilton, Partick, & Hibs (12 points dropped)

2009-10: Dave_min (41 points) 2010-11: BigAl (38 points) 2011-12: Snapper (41 points) 2012-13: Tyrant (48 points) 2013-14: 2014-15: Dandy (75 points) 2015-16: Dandy (retained due to no correct scorer) 2016-17: Rico (76 points - Flawless Victory. Nothing questionable about it at all) 2017-18: tom_widdows (73 points - Flawless Victory. Nothing questionable about it at all)

Dear God!!! :ultras: :ultras: :ultras: :ultras:

Lee Miller will feature in the Playoff Final next Thursday. Have to say I think Partick will steamroller through those two games

Yes it was

Maynard robbed I see

Would be so sweet if they managed that

Looks like Hibs are 'Hibs-ing' it tonight. If they don't get at least a point they kiss goodbye to 2nd and the only way they can get 3rd will be to beat Sevco 6-0.
