Mackie's ace!

Ferne Snoyle.

I was more interested in the fact that the EE have a mobile number for him...

I gave up near the end.

BOO!

No, I meant a commonly reported story that Lovell is 'quieter' than the rest of them.

I said IF! As that is a commonly reported story, and Jimmy has said it in press interviews before.

Hahaha imagine the reaction if Calderwood had signed Darren Dods to replace Anderson!

His spelling has never been good...maybe the EE beckons after all. Off the top of my head the worst sitter I've seen Lovell miss was Celtic Park in May, on as a sub, lacking match fitness. I saw Mackie miss FIVE open goal chances v BUCKIE before he finally managed to score one. All five of those chances I'd have easily scored.

If Jimmy didn't take 6 weeks holidays and went scouting instead, what games would he be watching during the summer break?

Just let me know if you do.

I've got two tickets for the home game v Bayern available in the Merkland stand (both adults, £21 each). Bought two yesterday morning as I didn't have to go via the call centre and I knew of a few folk on Monday who didn't have tickets. Unfortunately they all seem to have tickets now so I need to get rid of these ones! I should know better than trying to do people a favour, grrr. Anyway, let me know if you are interested, I have the tics on me already so if you are in Glasgow you can get them off me in advance and I'll be up in Aberdeen obviously for the game.

No. My Lovell top is also signed by the team that beat Copenhagen 4-0. That would be the team that lost 4-1 last night as well then.

I have Stevie's, and I haven't washed it. What more could I want?!

Sneckie knows. I don't want Gary Carroll's shirt though.

Maybe Gary Carroll is Stevie Lovell, pretending to be someone else, so Jimmy might play him.

I have rage built up inside me as I didn't use the full 90 minutes last night.

Monkey - I pointed that out to someone last night. We can but dream. My opinions, as I didn't want to come on after the game. Left my second ever game early, previous one being the other 4-1 cup pumping in Edinburgh. Mainly due to getting a lift with glasgow sheep and he was leaving. It meant I missed the Bus though. Langfield was clearly nervous from the start. Obviously had the league game on his mind as did Hunt and was very wary. Whatever his crazy two handed punch downs were about though, who knows. United were working psychology on him, particularly in second half when he was at their end and it worked. I knew that skewed kick was going out for a corner before he did it, and I knew the 3rd and 4th goals (which I'll get to) were going to happen. I don't think he should be dropped as won't do him any good and he's still better than Soutar, but we need some decent competition for him. He will be just as gutted as us about the result I'm sure, if his Copnehagen celebration is anything to go by. Lee Miller. Not sure if his first yellow was for persistent fouling or dissent but I certainly saw it coming. 2nd yellow I never saw the challenge, but the sending off was inevitable. Wilkie and Dods were at him the whole game, both physically and pointing in your face argumentative type stuff at free kicks. Sadly none of our players tried to do the same to Hunt/Wilkie/Dods who we know can be riled as well. Was gutted for him being sent off when he obviously would like to make a point to Utd, but he played shit, partly due to the fact he had nobody supporting him though. Goal number 4. Scott Severin is not my favourite player, and I frequently get told that we should understand him a bit more, cos like any of us, 'sometimes he just doesn't perform to his best, like I don't necessarily try my hardest at work every day and skive' (paraphrased). Well, as I've always said, you cannot be a pro footballer with an attitude like that, far less our captain. He was fucking abysmal last night, and all I can say is I was glad Funster wasn't there or I was anywhere near BTR as my rage at him was enough without hearing theirs too! Captain of the team, did anything but lead by example. Your keeper is under immense pressure and nervous after conceding 3 goals. You are 2m away from him with the ball at your feet, and United player hovering over you. Do you a) attempt to clear the ball, even if it means conceding a corner or throw in, or b) put your keeper under even more pressure with a passback he can do nothing with as the United player closes him down. Obviously, if you're Scott Severin, Mr Hand on Hips, you go for b. He better fucking be dropped on Sunday or stripped of captaincy or something, as he is not a leader and if he can't motivate himself hasn't got a fucking chance in hell of motivating his team. Zander was about the only person who seemed to care last night. Nobody else I'm going to bother mentioning, except maybe Walker. Didn't play up to Saturday's standards but maybe to be expected - 2nd start, 18 year old, in cup semi v United? Wouldn't know what to expect. He did seem frustrated however and is maybe wondering why the hell he came here. Arghjhjepiwhfsdn3[-rwejdn.

Who the feck is Gary Carroll?

David Ridd or Dave McDiarmid I'm guessing. It's ridiculous this Jimmy v Lovell thing that's going on, there must be something in it. If it's that he's a quieter lad than the rest of them then it's fucking ridiculous.

I got a special mention in my seminar today from my (usually nice Celtic supporting) lecturer. "Miss Sneckie, I thought you'd be wearing black today?" I pointed out his team weren't even in the semi final, and we agreed we didn't want to win a diddy cup anyway. Contrast to last week where he congratulated me on our fine win v Copenhagen.

They are pretty slow to update though. Who is your 'source' Al?

You never know...

I see we're still not sold out. Only tickets left in Main and Merkie though.

You are correct. I would have said it was a Saturday though.
