McGlynn doing a decent job at Falkirk but his time at Hearts was a disaster so not sure he is cut out to manage at club of our size.

Been mainly a sub for Birmingham so hopefully this move will get him more game time in lead up to World Cup.

Being reported as a loan deal. If there is no option to buy then should be a hard no. As I have said before fuck developing players for either of the bigots.

Don’t disagree that he is better than some who are remaining but I think he was just that bit short of being good enough to be first team player for our league. Not made the best of any of loans moves either as none of clubs took up options to buy. Probably best for both parties that he moves on.

Reports in Australian media linking Yengi with a loan move to Cerezo Osaka in Japan.

Never his fault when his teams lose. Really hope we do not appoint him.

Being reported in Holland that Besuijen off on loan to FC Emmen for the rest of season.

Morocco v Senegal on Sunday.

Morocco win 4-2 on penalties. Nigerian penalties were really poor.

Penalties in the Morocco v Nigeria game.

New manager at Real not getting off to a good start. Losing 3-2 to Albacete in Spanish cup. Albacete currently 17th in second division and their first ever win over Real Madrid.

Surprisingly finished 0-0 so going into extra time.

Much better game between Morocco and Nigeria but same half time result as the first game. Both sides had chances and hard to call who will win this one.

Finished 1-0 Senegal. Missed second half as went out to get picture with Scottish Cup.

0-0 at half time. Senegal with all the possession but unable to breakdown a stout Egyptian defence. Cannot remember Egypt touching the ball in the Senegalese box in first half.

First game today is Senegal v Egypt at 5pm followed by Morocco v Nigeria at 8pm.

But that is the whole idea of the set up club have adopted is to have a style of place across all teams teams. This style is supposed to be set by the Director of Football and he is supposed to recruit coaches who will play that philosophy. I think Lutz Pfannenstiel was hired by club because he would implement the style the club are already trying to play so little chance we will move away from playing out from the back or inverted wingers sadly.

It’s an odd one. Not as if he had a history of making a quick impact at other clubs and might get them into Europe. Been out of work since sacked by Middlesbrough in the summer.

Manchester City win 2-0 with goal right at death

Back to 1-0.

This VAR review is outrageous. 5 minutes trying to decide on offside. They are killing the game.

Manchester City 2-0 up with Semenyo’s second of night. Cheeky bastard with a back heel.

Finlay Marshall with a double for Arbroath against East Fife in KDM cup.

Manchester City 1-0 up with Semenyo getting his second goal in two games for City.

Carrick confirmed as United manager until end of season.
