You’re trawling new depths there

Makes sense, guess it just depends on “small”. I’m pleased for west ham, should serve as an inspiration to other teams that the dream is still there.

Our first attempt at the stadium was a bit of a disaster. One wanted to leave within 15 mins, the other lasted a bit longer. But I had promised flags and there were no flags So will see if we can tempt them again! I'm sure the doughnuts will be sufficient blackmail

I hope to go to a couple of the games. Worst time of year weather wise but hey ho!

McCrorie officially offski. Big character to lose, but hopefully we reinvest the money wisely!

Wild that they’ve been down there so long. Amusing though, hun bastards

Queens Park and / or Q.O.T.S. Both horrendously shite days. Fortunately never physically witnessed any pumpings from the ugly sisters, but our cup semi finals appearances were pretty embarrassing. Still, don't think they touch the sides of the two I mentioned. Actually, there was also a big loss to Livi which I remember getting the local pub to put on. Maximum regerts.

As long as he gives / sells us shinnie for FA, I couldn't care less

Summer? Months away May try and take the boys to the mountain half-way up the north island this winter though. UK trip and cost of living hammered our savings this year, but hoping my folks are able to come over during the summer. Will be making the most of the in-laws campervan too. Been a weird winter so far, second month in and it's the first proper cold day we've had. Definitely not had the rain that @Reekie_Red has suffered, nor the East Coast this year. Been very bizarre. Must be luring us into a false sense of security.

"Success" breeds success. A lot of casual fans will be tempted by a perceived better product. Don't think it's just football fans either, people will always want to see a winning team and be entertained.

Vaguely remember them at the semi final last season? Maybe a viaplay thing?

So what is the best situation in terms of us getting shinnie back next season? Them to be sold or presumably go bust?

Interesting , will just put this here https://twitter.com/androofrench/status/1664534516550049792?s=46&t=eC-2zu-nW-L1yu1oNLyRlg

Lovely frame sea bass , hope you enjoyed your birthday

That’s horrendous and unacceptable. I hope we never see a result like that again under his watch. Yes, back end of the season was better than the start and middle, but that aggregate score against them is never acceptable. Regardless of circumstances.

Let's hope it's the latter!

apparently so: https://www.thisisanfield.com/2023/05/liverpool-loanees-stunning-free-kick-seals-europe-may-earn-next-transfer/

You’d hope playing in Europe will be extra incentive to stay. Would be very pleased to see his contract extended. What a difference in form across the course of the season.

Truly was I would push the boat out on him , if it is at all possible (I know).

I see the mind games have started and saints are claiming they may have a striker crisis. Think only Grieve will be the only real omission?

Now our most important game after the predictable failings of last weekend. They’ll be buoyed by getting four points against the time this season, and probably look forward to spoiling a potential party. We’ve got a serious point to prove. Nothing but victory will be acceptable, which given where we’ve come from this season, is pretty impressive on its own. We should have McCrorie, Duk and shinnie back for this one, which will make a huge difference. We’ve been missing McCrorie and Shinnie big time over over the last three games. We’ve missed a fit Duk too, hopefully it’s given him time to rest as I thought he was starting to burn out. hopefully it’s not a sellout either, we don’t seem to cope out bed morning duties / commuting work 2-1 Dons, miovski and clarkson

I’d hope the targets have well and truly been identified but I guess that’s only part of the battle. Disappointing, seemed to be building a bit of a head of steam with some of the signings this season. Hopefully we have someone that can spot the magic in the database.

How’re you holding up MBT? Hope your network has been supportive.

Nominated for manager of the year. Which is pretty mental in itself. Don’t think he deserves to win it, nor will he, but absolutely wild that he’s been nominated in the first place.
