Funny I always think we shite it in front of big home crowds. No idea how this will go. United looked pretty good defensively last week but toothless up front. We struggle to score and keep clean sheets. oot train down south then beers Wigan v Sunderland train back to Capital 1-1 Ramirez

Tribute Act do get some unbelievable luck in cup draws.

With St Petersburg having a perfectly good equalising goal chopped off by VAR.

They should be refusing to play Russia. Mind you UEFA should be kicking Russia out anyway.

Tribute Act through. Gutting.

Tribute Act get it back to 2-2. BT Sport doing best Rangers TV impression on commentary. Dortmund are horrific at the back.

2-0 now.

Not advocating that he should go just pointing out he is seriously not happy in the interview. He definitely gives the impression that he does not know how to sort the team as what he is trying is not working.

Just my take on various things I have read over the years. He has talked in the past about re establishing the glories of Russian Empire. He now has his “peace keepers” in Kazakhstan as well as Ukraine. The ethnic Russian line is dangerously close to one used by another dictator in the 30s.

Being reported that Russia has launched military operation against Odessa overnight.

Putin doesn’t just want USSR. He wants the return of old imperial Russia. If he takes Ukraine the Baltic states are also fucked. NATO cannot act without US troops and Biden has made it quite clear that US will not provide any military support to Ukraine beyond supplying weapons. Tory party in U.K is kept afloat by donations from Russians and Europe relies heavily on Russian gas. Cannot see how Ukraine as an independent nation survives.

Conte basically resigning/asking to be sacked in his post match interview after Spurs 1-0 loss to Burnley. Something seriously wrong at the club. Everything they touch turns to shit.

Went along to Falkirk v Peterhead tonight and Ryan Duncan had a good game. Easily one of best players on the park and scored a good goal. Think he will be in our first team next season. Kieran Ngwenya played 90 minutes of Kelty’s 1-0 win over Cowdenbeath.

Early start for this one so no team comment yet but looks like it’s heading for a sell out.

I like McCrorie and still think he and Ferguson should have been played in midfield together rather than having Brown in there. That said until Devlin’s fit (no laughing at the back) or Considine I think we need to continue with McCrorie beside Bates at the back as Bates’ form goes to shit as soon as he is paired with Gallagher.

St Mirren appoint ex Motherwell manager Stephen Robinson as new manager.

No sympathy at all for players that miss when doing stupid run ups like that.

Poland might not be around by then either. Vlad wants the old Russian empire which includes Poland as well as Ukraine.

They did however avoid a red card for Jack’s knee high tackle at the end.

Tribute Act 1-0 down to Arabs. Not a result that suits us but funny all the same.

Dean Campbell was 88th minute sub for Kilmarnock in their 3-0 win against Raith. Ryan Duncan played 62 minutes of Peterhead’s 1-0 loss to Airdrie. Kieran Ngwenya played full 90 minutes of Kelty’s 1-0 loss to Forfar. Evan Towler played 90 minutes of Elgin’s 2-0 defeat from Cowdenbeath which puts Elgin in real danger of dropping into relegation play off place. Kevin Hanratty was unused sub.

Pish.

Usually when we have these cup double headers with Motherwell the team that loses the first wins the second. Not sure that this will happen today. Hopefully we have McCrorie back as he and Bates look a better pairing than Gallagher and Bates. Not so bothered about Brown as we have cover in central midfield. Would start Besuijen as he at least looked like he might create something when he came on Tuesday. oot flat Bonnyrigg Rose v Bo’ness United pub 1-1 Ramirez
