  1. I’m not quite sure of the sequence of the events but was there not a short time lapse between the alleged gesturing and the assault by Ferdinand? If Collum was offended by the gesturing why did he not card Candeias immediately? If he had done so Ferdinand would not have perpetrated the assault and would not have been booked himself. Ferdinand and St Mirren have been let down badly by Collum. Something should be done.
  2. That’s it in a nutshell. And there’s thousands of the useful idiots.
  3. Aberdeen’s star player touted ,not just in local press, as a contender for Baxter’s place in the national team. His role at Aberdeen was creative. Didn’t look quite so good at that with Rangers but taking a step back to defence transformed him. Brilliant at reading the game. Saw his debut in a friendly against the Arsenal along with Alec Smith from Dunfermline.
  4. All of that is true but since the Roxborough/Brown years, I haven’t been able to bother. I’ve gone from boyhood expectation that Scotland would win no matter who, except maybe Hungary and South Americans, to the roller coaster of magnificent defeat and unexpected victory (did I get that the right way round?) and now to apathy. Very wrong of me, I know.
  5. Can’t remember what mine cost. 30 bob, I think. £1.50 in this new-fangled money.
  6. Nice picture but, trust me, compared to mine, these are positively Gucci.
  7. Massive leather cloggers, huge studs (hammered on) and half a mile of laces. No wonder I was useless.
  8. Nothing against Arsenal but a pity Wolves didn’t hold out for the win. Thank you, City.
  9. Gonzo’s not saying that. I think he means Remembrance is solemn, not theatrical.
  10. Thirteen.
  11. Somebody’s got to keep the Watch in the night, Compo. Just be thankful it’s neither you nor I.
  12. YSaturday matches are dull again. A flicker of interest in ‘Spurs away to Palace. Different story on Sunday. Arsenal v Wolves, a championship decider yesteryear, and City v United. Have United got back enough of their luck to overcome Silva? I hope not. Blades v Owls tonight should be good.
  13. Let me be charitable to the FM. She didn’t see the footage herself and is acting on her office briefing. Still absolutely scandalous.
  14. Millwall v Charlton Athletic.
  15. You missed out Elgin City v inverness caley. Actually, not really. The caley were never able to live up to it.
  16. The celtic statement is flannel and half literate. If that’s their PR guys, I’d sack them.
  17. It’s a nonsensical idea. What happens? Does the ‘keeper get to pick the ball up unmolested? Is it a goal kick or a free kick. Is it a corner if the ‘keeper palms it round the post? Football is supposed to be a continuous game. There’s too much time wasting already. I quite like the goalmouth stramash that follows a partly saved penalty.
  18. Well observed, 26th. Mention of Kilmarnock and Dolly caused a peculiar memory to erupt to the front of my brain. I think that at one time long ago, many decades, Kilmarnock had a sheep for a mascot. Anyone with great grannies in Ayrshire to confirm? When Rugby Park was in grass the surface was lauded as the best in Scottish football. The sheep’s legacy perhaps. The ovine may have been good at manuring and trimming but mascot-wise his ghost wasn’t up to much on Sunday. Gordon’s league position calculation method raises an interesting proposition. Who would have been top if Hearts and celtic had lost more games and Rangers had lost fewer?
  19. R4 News told the truth. Kicked out by celtic but taken back to re-offend. Disquiet about how this was allowed to happen.
  20. BG, old chap, define British Nationalist for me because I don’t know exactly what you mean.
  21. Won’t be laughing now.
  22. You should know by now, buster, that Bill is not a sniper. Bill is a carpet bomber.
