Does it need to change? I’ve seen some say online that it needs to, but I actually like the system. It works. Wouldn’t mind a 14 league setup, it’s actually what the a-league are striving towards as well, although once the top 6 breakaway, the season ends for the rest. im genuinely surprised we’re even talking about it, the cheeks need to get a grip.

Adolescence is on the list to watch, but just need to be in the right head space for it from what i've heard. So a light hearted show we've started is, The Residence on Netflix, a who dunnit at the white-house. Great cast and very funny.

When would any first euro fixtures for us be played? Back over between June and July… superb result, nice to see nisbet find his mojo and Clarkson continue his resurgence in form!

Always good to know you can rely on your subs bench to get the match thread going, ta @Jute Clarkson has been playing well, but it'll be interesting to see if Shinnie gets shunted back in to mid (i'd prefer him at LB). Obviously Well had a great result at Ibrox and played quite well, as well as being typically physical, so whether a Palaversa / Clarkson combo has enough bite or nous to avoid the battles in the middle will be a big test. Nice that it is a sell-out, just hope the team turn up! Sokler is fit again, so i'd imagine we see some decent minutes from him in the second half? Will it be him and Nisbet up top even, as I'd imagine Dabbagh may come off the bench due to the international games?

Thanks for this. Exactly what I wanted to read on a Monday morning

Boooooo (his injury, not the thread).

Finished 7-0 kiwis, Fiji didn’t have their best player, Krishna (ex Phoenix player) playing which I was a bit gutted about as he was the player that made me remotely interested in the nix. Nice that that Auckland player was booed. Here for it

I’m off to watch the two titans of Oceania football tonight, NZ - Fiji, NZ aiming to qualify for the next World Cup. Pretty farcical but it is what it is.

Glad someone organises your life

That’s on the watch list. waiting for the final episode of white lotus. Keen to see who freaks out just odd not having stifflers mum in this season.

Felt a bit like destiny given how few occasions we’ve actually met them at hampden (3?), but half of me still thought we’d land Celtic as per. Are we expecting attendance fc to request a 60:40 split? anyway, hopefully it’ll be a decent time of day, it is over Easter weekend though. Read some saying they’d be happy for a smaller louder crowd rather than more dandies. Not sure I quite agree but can understand the rationale. This is a bloody good opportunity to make the final, hope we take it.

Saints have been putting some good results together over the last month or so so I don’t think we’ll have it easy, especially since we usually struggle to play much football there at the best of times. They’ve got an outside chance of being able to step out of the relegation zone over the next few weeks, only 3 points behind Dundee so will be gunning for them. Not usually many games in this one, goalless draws have featured a lot. Any news if we’re likely to retain the same starting XI? I know it was queen’s but after the first 15, it seemed like a relatively settled performance. Like to see Dabbagh and nisbet build their understanding together, feels like we’re finally starting to see a genuine pairing rather than two individuals struggling. Do need Mitov to be a bit calmer and alert I think, hasn’t quite been the same in the games he’s played since he’s come back. out bed bed 2-1 Dons, nisbet and Dabbagh

Thank you for your blessings. I’ll get a semi thread on the go soon.

Seemed like there could have been many more goals for both sides. Nice to see a game like that for a change.

I know, and I appreciate that, I think it's important for the values of the site to have more than one POV. I may not agree with your politics but it's the one you live and I can't argue with that. Certainly not from afar! I'm not sure the economy will improve under trump, as there is a reason why manufacturing for example, was moved away from the US. It's too expensive, much like other anglosphere countries. Tarrifs are going to cripple the country and people will be infinitely poorer. Conservatism or rather Atlasism will only increase the divide and countries and societies will only be poorer for it.

@OrlandoDon interested to hear your perspective on things at the moment over there?

This is very much why I want us to go for it from the outset. We can’t afford to fanny about and go down. Only bit of solace is they’re playing midweek so may be a bit leggy.

Queen’s had a good confidence boosting win against Raith at the weekend. Play like we did in the second half of the second half of the game at the weekend and we won’t have anything to worry about. We’ve got the fire power to do it, but I’d like us to go for the jugular first. They’re going to make it hard for us and I don’t want to see the game goalless for too long. I know it’s not the Thelin way but we’ve just got to get the job done and we got given one of the best possible ties. I’d like to see Gueye and okkels dropped and arguable let Shinnie stay at left back. We know Nilsen won’t be dropped and it was actually nice to see him back at left back. Interesting that Willie also doesn’t rate Okkels yet either. out bed bed recovery 2-0 Dons, keskinen and Nisbet

Couldn’t really care less about him tbh, he was shite for us and fucked off relatively quickly.

That was some line from the cretin Vance. “Even though we’re not the ones who have done anything, in fact we’re making your destruction more likely, you need to thank us. Also. Wear a suit.” (In summary). Was surprised he didn’t ask him to kiss his ring.

We’re doomed. should be a cracker I think. Both teams need to win to keep each other and hibs at bay. Hoping for a traditional derby collapse for Hibs. wouldn’t be against Gueye being on the left, actually. I mean, it is where our goal at the tattie dome came from. Be interesting to see if he reverts to the winning team formation. out bed bed not sure, probably more 5th birthday shenanigans. 2-1 Dons. Keskinen and Dabbagh.

Ah so I hadn't misread that. I thought i'd seen it as 2-1 united at one stage. Both are breathing down our neck now.

Useless killie bending over to their hun bretheren and ruining a good LOL moment in scottish football. Booo.

Was disappointing to see how easily they cut through us for their goals. I'd argue goals no. 1, 3 and 4 should have been saved by Doohan. Does Mitov save them? Probably. Have to say, our goal was actually really well worked and a great finish by Morris. Not sure how Dabbagh didn't connect with his chance. Hopefully it's just a case of match fitness and awareness. But fuck, our defence man, how easy did we make it for them?

Shinnie and Nilsen don't work, this is the wrong time to be trying it. All it is doing is inviting pressure on us Thank fuck I cancelled RedTV and have a meeting so unable to watch this. 4-1 might be a bit optimistic.
