Forgetting the 3rd division player he's picked I don't understand why he never included Huddersfield's Paul Dixon who has had 2 good games for Scotland recently. Surely a better option and at minimum merits at least inclusion in the squad.

I didn't get to finish it in the end... QPR offered me a tenner for it. I'd already had a few bites out of it so thought fair enough. Then I went and bought a baguette and pocketed the change. Winning.

Stuart McCall was at Midden last night so no surprise Shinnie was dropped after McCall watched that game.

I had a sandwich at lunch.

Something stinks.

Unless they can prove that DW has served his suspension this is not over.

No I mean taking it to the court, if the FA say he never served the ban in England. Yeah, I wasn't serious you know!

What? Call ourselves "The Caley Thistle" and get boycott everything?

I'll be there. Surely you can pay on the gate right?

Right, that's it I demand an answer... We as decent fans deserve to know... This is a question can which quite simply can no longer be dismissed... It's about someone from the SFA made a statement, somebody there MUST know... "Who put the 'O' and the 'Y' in county???"

Maybe we should ask Chuckles Green to take things up with the powers that be, he loves arguing with them. Although I can't see the SFA wanting to help Mad Vlad. Maybe they just don't want to p1ss the mad b@st@rd off again!

I think it was big mistake not putting on Esson who has a decent record with penalties. Although you could argue that he was not as warmed up as Reguero. Either way we had the option and IMO we should have used it. But it's done now. Onwards and upwards!

The club are maybe happy to just get on with things but maybe someone else can take up matters and press the SFL/SFA or whoever for a clear answer? If this had been the other way around I just can't help thinking it would not be getting brushed aside as quickly. The feckers already had home advantage FFS without further aspects going their way. Anyway for what it is worth my opinion is that we had our chance and we failed to take it. However many, many other clubs would explore this potential lead as far as they could... I would love to hear Mad Vlad's rant if a decision was made against the edinburgh huns.

Glory hunting b@st@rd!

Greig Street bridge for me. And the Castle Tavern. I do like a pint in there when I am home.

Just wait until I win the Euro Millions...

I'd like to see Bobby Mann kick the feckin little chit up and down the touchline. Wee fudd.

You do know he's Northern Irish and not Irish right?

Are you sure it's not the early onset of dementia?

Really? Is that the reason?!

Great opportunity to remind everyone of England's 1938 shame! untitled.png Shame? England won 6 -3! This is actually quite interesting and my comment above is not entirely tongue in cheek. It is, of course easy to regard the Nazi salute as shameful in hindsight but however uncomfortable it may be, one really needs to see it in the context of the time. The match was pre-war but clearly there were huge tensions. The German government saw the game much as they had seen the '36 Olympic games as an opportunity to demonstrate to the world the superiority of the German race. Whilst Hitler was not at the game, most of the other leading Nazis were. There was a crowd of 110,000 expecting another German victory to extend their 14 game unbeaten run. The English officials (in consultation with the British Government) did much agonising about whether to give the salute or not. The view was that to refuse would be seen as a petulant gesture which would just ensure the hostility of the crowd and, more importantly, the wider German people and Government. Give them respect in the formal pleasantries and give them a beating on the park where it matters was the view. They did just that rounding off with a superb Stanley Matthews goal to seal a great victory. At the time this was seen as real setback to Germany in their propaganda campaign. Had England not given the salute and then been on the receiving end of a 6 - 3 scoreline the boost to the propaganda of the Nazi regime would have been huge. In retrospect I think it is fair to say giving the salute was a mistake. Snubbing the Nazi's by refusing to salute and then giving them a hiding on the park in front of such a huge crowd would have doubly deflating for them. But of course, because of the terrible events that followed, it is the picture of the salute that is the enduring image and the impact of the match on the German people at the time is forgotten. But we stray off topic. Had he been there as an honorary Englishman, what would wee Gordon Strachan have done? Would he have followed instructions and given the salute? No. I think he would have done this How f**kin' old are you?!

From now? Can I ask what relevance the 6th minute has? Also does it not seem a bit odd that people are arguing about clapping at a football match? Must just be me.

It's really worked out well for every other player that's left us because they wanted more money eh...

No we don't i have heard he is away back down to England. Wanted to move back to where his family are Is this all because they covered his car in post-it notes?
