  1. Best news we could have hoped for I suppose. Hopefully the international break hasn’t stopped the potential green shoots of good football shown pre break.
  2. So have they confirmed that there are to be no fans at this now? I’ve not really kept up to date with it all at the mo. Interesting to see if mr Bryson turns out for them.
  3. More than deserved our victory that day! Definitely counts as a victory, as it should. Regardless, our record against Celtic is shite.
  4. I’m gutted it didn’t work out with Bryson. On paper, a fantastic player and he should have been a huge boost to our squad. I’m inclined to side with Rico on this one. Shite luck for all concerned. That said, I’ll be glad to see him go because it hasn’t worked out and it’s a waste of an expensive bench spot .
  5. What was the thinking in terms of numbers? Does it all relate to stadium capacity and how you're able to socially distance?
  6. Wonder if he’ll end up the same as shankland, Rodgers and the many others. Virtanen is a funny one, wasn’t he highly rated? I’m surprised they’re letting his deal run out
  7. Just don’t get why they didn’t pick someone with a bit of life in them! A cat could beat drumpf. Can’t believe the fat orange cunt is visiting Wisconsin today. There can only be one reason, and that’s to encourage further rioting. Fuck I hope something happens to him. USA is fucked anyway so they may as well go down in a blaze of glory and do the world a favour.

    Andy Murray

    Really bizarre watching the tennis with no crowds, then the anti vaxxer freak celebrating to an empty stadium , wtf great to see murray back playing, genuinely didn’t think we’d see it
  9. There will be very few games I bother watching m, once the dons are out. Maybe if mates have their teams in it I’ll pay attention or a fixture that looks like it could be tasty, I’ll pay attention but other than that. Once we’re out, it’s off.
  10. Absolutely, especially given its knockout anyway. We can’t afford to go easy or be cautious. I’m certainly not writing off Viking.
  11. Bit frustrating when you compare our potentials to the Huns and well, but it is what it is. Agreed, option 1 is the only real route .
  12. Hard to judge killie at the moment. Pumped the arabs (who sit above them still) but have by and large been pish. We should be fine, given our recent upturn in form, we should have enough to take the 3 points providing logical team selections. killie haven’t won at pittodrie for almost two years , and prior to that you had to go back to 2012. not sure if Mains return from injury has been hampered? out bed bed bed 2-0 dons, McCrorie and wright
  13. Game scheduled for 17th sept. KO time tbc as far as I can see. midway through their season and sit tenth in the table. it’s not been going well for them but they have won their last two games following two draws so they may be turning things around. Especially given the last victory was against second placed Molde, the one prior to the team who was just above them. Play as professionally as we can and we should be ok, but I don’t share the confidence of others. Plastic pitch will be to their advantage . Guess we’ll find out the game before as to how DM will be considering to tackle this tie.
  14. Aye, would be amazed if they used a scheduled service. Just not worth the risk. It’s gonna cost the club but that’s gonna to be pittance compared to getting squad players taken out.
  15. Decided to make a plywood bench seat to try and help utilise the kitchen table. Currently it's just used for storage but with the bairns about to start solids / use high chairs, it makes sense. Wanted to do this at christmas when I still had time, but there you go Will be using a combo of hand tools / cnc (just for the openings to get a clean and crisp finish). Unlike the bedside tables, I'll try and get photos up! Already added another cabinet to the kitchen as well as a wee bit extra counter space. For some reason the builder who owned it last time round put the cooker hard up against the end of the counter, which is actually really annoying when you're cooking.
  16. Missed it yesterday, but doesn’t surprise me. City don’t tend to play much football, but this is a rare occasion I’m pleased Sydney won. City are owned by the city group, so fuck them. No idea when the league will kick off again. Lots of turmoil going on as it transitions from FFA ownership to club ownership. Rumours of jan, but fuck knows.
  17. Very pleased to wake up to another positive result ? really hoping that we finally see some positivity from the manager and faith in the players he has. Seems like he may now feel he has the players to play the way he wants? Wtf was the hibbie thinking when he gave our own away? Fuck me, calamitous ? Ferguson was lucky though, was pretty central but who cares, it went in and we got 3 points, that’s all that matters . Agree with I think it was LA who said since the covid farce, we appear to have united and been playing better. Long may it continue. Jute, did your flag make an appearance on TV?
  18. Fuck me. Was expecting some decent pre match chat in the thread. Enough of the AFC Chat shite already. I suspect Jute might be right re: DM will revert. He's always cautious and will be concerned about Doyle and thus it'll be a tight game. I know some hibbies always complain that we ruin "their" game when we play them. Hard to disagree that most of the recent matches have been a shite watch. 1-1, Consi
  19. God I hope you’re right, Panda. It’s been excruciating to watch for the last three years. Especially since the players are better than the performances and style of play we were seeing.
  20. Opted to do it all by hand in the end! I’ve been meaning to post photos of them on here . Still standing and a really enjoyable process. Attempting some bench seating for the kitchen this weekend ?
  21. There’s some really interesting teams in amongst that list. Superb result, just hope we can continue some of that into he league form. Tough I know given that the opposition were as pub like as we’re going to face. Looking forward to seeing all the goals, sounded like Hayes was a cracker. Only saw the first two goals before heading out the door.
  22. Game is live on Red TV for ST holders and intl viewers, others will have to make do with "Premier" sports. Surely we have to play two up top for this one?
  23. Not good news if mcginn doesn’t make it, although if there was a game (on paper) that he could miss, this would be it.
  24. Finished gangs of London the other day. Have to time my viewings for when the bairns are asleep. Violent as fuck but great viewing. Looking forward to the second series. There better be one!
