  1. "injury scare for berwick this week when their keeper Peat injured his groin at work pushing a trolley" Lol
  2. Four nil now. Well doing a fine job of picking out future managers for us ;-) but in fairness dundee have been poor and now griffiths has been sent off.
  3. Three and easy for 'well. Pretty impressive performance and result.
  4. Two nil motherwell. Can't say i've been that impressed with what i've seen of dundee and their 'stars' that some jutes are touting for scotland call ups. English game looks fairly poor so far from the bits i've seen.
  5. As you say auto cup just means you buy a ticket (or not) automatically rather of having to go to the ticket office or pay at the turnstile, not really the same thing.
  6. 2p in the pound have just taken an early lead against 5p in the pound in the administration cheats scottish cup tie at Dens
  7. Some pretty terrible crowds yesterday: Pittodrie: 6918 Tannadice: 4041 New Douglas Park: 1054 Easter Road: 6056 Caledonian Stadium: 2808 Links Park: 1030 New St Mirren Park: 2312 Now obviously a number of factors are involved: declining crowds in the game in general declining interest in the early rounds of the cup poor weather even poorer recent form of some of the home sides the fact that almost all games were Big Team v Small Team - an away game at an infrequently visited ground will always be more enticing to fans of "Big" teams than the reverse fixture price of games and the economy in general I wonder however if one of the biggest effects over the last few years has been the removal from Season Tickets of cup games. Clearly a balance has to made between the financial commitments of cup games where profits are split and encouraging good crowds to these games but surely something should be done. How about something like adding £20 to the cost of a Season Ticket. With that you get, say, the first 2 Home Cup games included. Now some seasons we won't have any cup games, but then there will be others where we have several. This way decent crowds are more likely for the early rounds and then hopefully in the later stages a decent crowd would be encouraged out anyway. I certainly wouldn't be averse to such an idea (our STs are as good value as any in the league) but I suppose ultimately it will depend on whether the numbers added up for the club. So, in principal, would you be happy with a small increase in ST prices to cover a couple of Home cup games? Or indeed any other ideas to boost Home cup crowds. As an aside, interesting to think if yesterday we had been away to United we would probably only had a few hundred less fans at Tannadice than we could muster into Pittodrie.
  8. Can easily understand why ours wasn't extended highlights. On paper united v county was a much bigger game, hibs v ayr had the greatest shock potential and even ict v city had some local intrigue.
  9. Why have the bbc decided it is a good idea to have a current player as one of the pundits. Some well taken goals and i'd rather vernon missed goals in games like this than next week but looked like east fife were pretty poor. However poor or not very few teams north or south of the border came close to our score today.
  10. Gutted I couldn't convince anyone to head up to this. Best cup win in 31years according to sportscene. Looking forward to proper saturday night highlights too. COYR
  11. Looks like and open and shut case:
  12. In/oot: Oot as no other cunt down here could be arsed going Prematcher: FA Cup on ITV Match: SSN at the gym Postmatcher: fuck knows Prediction: 3-0 and the Brown revolution continues.
  13. Don't tell me Broon is going to try this too
  14. Is correct. Is that at Hamilton? Because strangely the only place I had seen it before that pic was Celtic Park and Easter Rd.
  15. Presume you mean "capacity" as our "attendance" is barely averaging 10,000 this season
  16. Gutted. Still apparently the best managerial start since McNeil
  17. Liverpool losing again. Bye bye Roy?
  18. A dull goal less second half would go down a treat.
  19. Game hasn't got much better in the second half. Hibs offering absolutely fuck all. Game needs a hearts goal to force hibs to actually try and attack.
