  1. I see 1 or 2 have been giving some good reports on Tam Buffel. The comments have been right - to get another player in with his talent would cost millions - Walter HAS to play him. Gow needs a wee run in the first team aswell - he surely cant be any worse than Charlie Adam.
  2. You'll get a packet of Wine gums maybe!
  3. Now I dont agree with that. Although I do think the other team and fans have to respect the decision made whether it be applause or silence. The way I see it is your showing your respect by doing something for that minute. When someone dies we say you should celebrate that persons life and in war hero's you'd want to applaude their efforts. When your football team scores a goal your celebrating the achievement byt cheering - you dont stand in silence for a minute. I think either silence or applause is appropriate, its just you can identify the morons easily in the silence. The other season when John Lyall died Aston Villa put on a minute silence for West Ham but the West Ham fans chanted him name for that minute and nobody thought it was disrepectful - even the family preferred it to the silence.
  4. 1-0 to Chelski. Have to say Avram Grant has done a good job there. He's made the fans almost forget about Jose and they are also going nicely in 4 tournaments. Now that Chelsea are out of the spotlight a bit I dont really mind them again.

    Fringe players

    Anyone actually going along tonight? Or is it on TV? I'm off to bed soon so hopefully someone puts a player performance rating up when I log on in the morning
  6. Not allowed in but there's a creche with a bouncy castle for you.
  7. Never mind mate, im still to see when I will be across for exact. But will be up for going if im in town
  8. Crikey - are you trying to put people off going??
  9. Yeah but lescott should have been done for match fixing with that header
  10. You watch Buffel tonight and after that you'll be hoping he's at the table
  11. An Everton v Spurs final would be a cracking game and nice to see. I still think it will happen.

    Fringe players

    Give them a few early touches of the ball to get the nerves out the way - they will be nerves as they will be so keen to impress. Once thats out the way then hopefully they show their potential. Have to say, I wish i could see this game tonight as i would be looking forward to seeing all these players.
  13. If Carroll leaves then Im up for getting a replacement but not someone who isnt better than our current back up. Smith is ample at the moment. It would have to be a name who is going to come in and keep McGregor on his toes.
  14. Was thinking it may be quite soon and was away to post I'll go to it one year. But I just noticed its April and I could be in UK around then. If I am and there is a ticket available then I'll go. Will check a bit nearer the time. :cheers:
  15. Yeah Souness probably does make a "B" list with McLeish. Burley MIGHT get into this catergory aswell. But Billy Davies and McGhee were certainly "C" listers, with Calderwood, Jefferies and Burns being lower again. It would be interesting to see which level Dalglish and J Jordon would come in - possibly "B" list? I think Moyes has to be in the top list. He would certainly have been one of the top choices if available.
  16. The list of players Newcastle have been linked with this week is getting huge: Micah Richards Alan Hutton Sol Campbell SWP David Beckham Berbatov Robbie keane Wes Brown Peter Crouch Jon Arne Riise ...and on and on
  17. Doesnt mean to say it will happen again. England are taking the chance with Capello who is one of the best. I just feel we should have sets our sights a bit higher than Burley, Davies, McGhee, Burns and Souness.
  18. Good post Calscot and agreed Burley is probably the preferred choice from our "B" list of Scottish managers. Id have liked to consider a englishman or foreigner for the job ahead of out "B" list. List A included: Sir Alex (wouldnt take it) Moyes (wouldnt take it) W Smith (wouldnt take it) Strachan (possibly would have) George Graham (Why he wasnt ever even mentioned is baffling to me). But it looks set in stone so we'll have to get with it. As I said before hopefully he brings in a promising No.2 with him.
  19. I hope it gets lost in the post But he has contributed with some goals. Something a bit wrong with that. In theory you could play 10 games before september then move to another club and win the title and could end up with a winners and runners up medal (if there is such thing as a runners up medal).
  20. So will Cousin get a medal this season if we go on and win the league?
  21. Larsen is the most appealing one but I dont think strikers should be our top target. As i said we have a list of strikers (below) who can play upfront, while we are crying out for a midfielder (if Ferguson or Hemdani got injured we'd ne knackered) and we need more depth at the back. Id say a keeper wouldnt be a bad signing also, Carroll still wants to move to Derby. Darcheville Novo McCulloch Boyd Naismith Gow Buffel Lennon
  22. Pete, your getting funny in your old age!! Have to say was pretty happy with it and thought it was a good idea. As said before he wasnt really given time. Seeeeeeboooooooooo
  23. Where I would have preferred Cousin to stay from a playing point of view Im happy we have got 3 million for a 30 yr old who thinks his future is elsewhere. Good bit of business. But we cant compete when it comes to buying a replacement now unless we find someone on the continent for cheap. I havent heard of Kyle Lafferty?? Is he a young talent? The things look now we maybe should have brought David Healy in last summer.
  24. Pete is this thread this weeks Taxi collum??
  25. Agreed he has to produce the goods but wouldnt say last chance as IMO he didnt get much of a first chance Obviously style of play cant be compared to Burke or Naismith but what they deliver to the team can be. Plus wasnt Naismith a out and out striker for Killie? I think the midfield problem (or lack of it) would dry up if someone we had start scoring a few goals on a consistancy basis. Ferguson used to do this but hasnt for a few seasons now.
