  1. Feels like this would make sense, although I feel that is heavily reliant on scales forming the same type of relationship he had with the defence as he did last season. McGarry is fine going forward, but defending wasn’t his forte. When he goes bombing up, that person needs to be able to handle the pressure.

    Probably regret saying this, but work has organised $10 tickets which include the film, cocktail and snacks. Seemed too good to pass so will be watching in a week or so’s time.
  3. Good player, had struggled with injury earlier in his career but I was disappointed when he left the nix. He wasn’t first choice, but there wasn’t much between him and the then Lb. Wasn’t as good as Cacace who I wanted us to sign, but improved big time at CCM. Was always a frustration when he played for the nix that he didn’t shoot and get forward enough. Then he did with them and scored some screamers last season. Believe he started his career further up field and moved to the back line. I’m trying to remember if I saw him play as part of a back 3, uffie played a 4-2-2-2 but not sure what Montgomery utilised.
  4. Don’t know if I’m ready for the season to start yet, I don’t feel like we’re there as a squad yet but the date is the date! haven’t really paid much attention to what most of the rest of the league have done over summer and with their pitch, would we want to start Rubezic? Be very interested to see if we still have Ramadani, I’d imagine we won’t see him in red again as they’ll want to keep him wrapped in cotton wool? Should be a good crowd from the Dons! Certainly sounds like plenty of folk are heading for it.

    Good ideas Panda, certainly could help increasing traffic. I “run” the Twitter, but it’s very much a side show. Hard when I’m on the other side of the world trying to hit those peak viewing times. Have access to Facebook too, but given some of the Facebook comments you see, and my very infrequent use of it, it doesn’t get much attention. merging and then advertising it more absolutely make sense. Will see what we can do.
  6. Looking forward to seeing what this guy can do. His stats compared to scales are generally favourable. Welcome aboard Slobodan!
  7. Yikes, Charlton aren’t a good side and looked like we gave them far too much space. Fully expect dadia to take a bit of time if I’m honest. Not sure why but I’d imagine it’s a fair culture shock, whether he realises it yet or not. there’s been a lot of positivity about polvara since he’s come back (and even before he did), hopefully he and the club have managed to turn his fortunes around.
  8. Rumour I heard yesterday and has now been noted on the RTG pod is Rocco Vata (Celtic on loan). Striker but played wing a lot recently. Very highly thought of apparently. also apparently chris Harvey was on the news yesterday saying Rubezic is just being held up by red tape. Anyone else see it? edit:

  10. Has to be up there with Lincoln imps as the worst euro result in Scottish club history?
  11. Am I imagining it or did she not have cancer over the last few years? Gutted , amazing artist.
  12. Fair enough, the games I've seen have been better than I anticipated Enjoyed Kiwi-Norway, Japan-Zambia and Sweden-SA (despite the conditions) games. Seen bits and pieces of others. Heading to the big one for the kiwis tomorrow against the Philippines. Unusual watching live football in winter here.
  13. You’d be wrong. I’ve seen far greater skill levels thus far than I’ve seen from some spfl premiership teams. Ours included at various points over the last few years. But you are of course entitled to your own opinion.
  14. Great start for the host nations, sounded like it took the Auckland crowd a bit to get into it (anthem was quiet as hell on tv), but grew into the game. Must have been some noise in the ground at full time. Was a decent watch too, much better than expected given the ferns’ form. Japanese referee was excellent too. Got all the big decisions right. Looking forward to the Philippines game now.
  15. I was amused by how afc Twitter managed to get their pants wet by him following the club on instagram this week. It was never happening after last week. Shame, and exactly the caliber of player we should be looking to sign. Big wad of cash for a player with 11 months to go, but they’ve got the cash so it’ll be pocket change for them. Onwards and upwards, but I’d like to see someone confirmed soon.
  16. Is Neymar in his prime now? But still, I could absolutely see him going. I mean he’s on holiday in France anyway so what only difference would be loss of champs league.
  17. Seems like FIFA have fucked up the marketing for this event over here, not sure what it’s like in oz? But anyway, games involving NZ should be close to sell outs, along with the USA games. I’m heading to NZ - Philippines and Japan - Spain. Looking forward to it, there weren’t many tickets left for the latter game, even having to sit in the alcohol free zone presumably we’ll still be able to drink on the concourse. Typically, or atypically, we’ve had next to no wind for months in wellington, this event comes up and here we are winter football eh! Looking forward to it!
  18. As long as they’re not Dutch, we should be ok.
  19. I’d never tried the middle one before. No wonder that was annoying
  20. What’s changed from what you saw before? For me, even on my phone it’s exactly the same interface but if there is something to be done, we’ll look into it

    She said, which is all about the Harvey Weinstein sexual predator cases. To this day, it’s a great bit of journalism and why we need investigative journalism. excellent film.
  22. Given we’ve now ticked over 12k STs, they should help go a way to help fund these players
  23. HQ heard we had a beeb journo on the prowl, so had beef up security
  24. I see Robson has said we won’t see any this weekend. Making me slightly nervous now. Word has it Stewart is on the verge of signing for the arabs, surely not?!?
  25. Have to say, from what I could see, Ngenwya (sp) impressed, likewise morris. Was a decent finish. Sokler (oddly autocorrect says dollar) had some good finishes regardless of opposition. Interested to see how we fare against stronger opposition.
