Thought 'Weir' and typed 'Dingus' for some reason.

I’m sick of reading about targets that should be met, what players should be doing in games, individual mistakes, where we should be, what we should be aiming for, luck, bad refereeing decisions……blah blah blah. I’m probably one of the more forgiving fans on this board and not prone to knee-jerk reactions. But if the players can’t achieve what is expected of them, then they’re not good enough for my football club or worthy of a new contract. Simple as that.

Dingus is scouting for youth but I'm not sure about seniors. But then with the likes of the internet/email and agents calling round is there any need for trawling games as we can't afford to buy anyone anyway. Why pay a scout to find players on free transfers when they're chapping at your door? If JC is networking and coming across well then there's every likelyhood that other managers might send their youth players here for a spell. Mowbray and McLeish both recommended just that.

I'm surprised there's so many people wanting Seve to sign on again. I don't think he's done anything in the past 18 months of note, looks like he's lost any pace he had and it might mean we could have someone else pretending to be a team captain. Young is on peanuts so he won't be going anywhere (although he shouldn't be playing as often as he should or he'll be looking for a better deal), Mackie is a stick-on and I'd imagine Mair will still be here after the summer. JDV - meh. Smith - pfffffffft.

Anyone know what the fuck that means?

You're making me feel sickle.

Eat your arse.

We played shite against St Mirren and well against the Huns except for two set pieces. When I said 'it worked' I was referring to JC's quote that "putting Sone up with Lee would cause Rangers a lot of problems". So why not stick with it?

41. He looks both ways when crossing a one way street, just in case.

Again I think this is largely down to JC telling them to go out and 'must win' the game rather than pandering to nullify the opposition. We had to beat Hibs and we did, Copenhagen was a must win and we hammered them, the last game of the season against the Huns to get into Europe and again we brought the game to them and fucked them over. St Mirren at home, JC looks at their team sheet and sets out his team to counter-act them. Counter-act what exactly? It's like we play every game as if a draw or a sneaky goal is enough.

37. He denied having a copy of Fly Fishing by J.R. Hartley when some old codger phoned his bookstore.

32. He only gets 3 points for a win and 1 for a draw.

JC, it's not difficult, you even said it yourself: Why?! Matching up to St Mirren at home or going out to win against the Huns in Glasgow. If it works against the Huns then surely to fuck it would work against poorer opposition!

I'd say the reason we're struggling this season is purely down to the fact that this is the poorest squad we've had under JC. Anderson has never been replaced and we've had our 'top' midfielder shuffled back into going some way as to replacing him. Meaning we're worse off in midfield and at the back. We've also signed two United players who weren't getting a game and got rid/lost three other first names on the team sheet each week - Hart, Clark & Nicholson. Aluko has been the only plus point since January last year when we should have been building on the success of our European campaign. I just think we've too many journeymen or squad players who are now playing as first team regulars. The two goals we gifted at the weekend was because we were like statues when the ball was played in. There was no urgency and if your team captain can't organise in his own penalty box then he's obviously not going to manage to boss the whole park. I think we need a quick fix to bolster our season and think that (puts tin hat on) Steven Pressley wouldn't be a bad idea. Seve could be pushed into midfield and we'd have someone at the back who could organise. Zander and Considine (who has been excellent this season) aren't going to learn fuck all playing alongside Seve.

Somethings never change.

So what if the pitch gets mashed up. It's not like any football is being played on it.

Genius. Surely he must be up for some literary award?

29. Him and Spengler crossed the beams.

27. He looked back in anger.

Get signed up. It's about a fiver a month, you get the games, highlights and interviews every week and you can also watch classic games from years ago. Godsend if you live abroad.

Yeah Jag, RedTV works abroad.

We'll get humped.

23. He fought the law and the law won.
