I think he'd be nothing more than a squad player/backup player at Sheffield United, but it is possible considering our "links" with them. Perhaps we'll get one of their wonderkids next season :023:

That would've been great, but i've now got the offer of staying over on the fri and saturday night, so will head down on the fri night now i think. Is there a pub that everyone will be meeting up in before the game?

He was pumping a girl from Elgin for a while :023: She was the year above me at school

Which could mean us having a look at some of their younger centre halfs... Scott Cuthbert seems to be a great prospect :024:

I'm looking to head to Italy to see some of their pre-season games. The sooner they announce where and when they are going, the sooner i can book flights :021: When did they go last year? As my term finishes about July 7th... so would make anytime after that. Hopefully they will play Elgin City again this year at Borough Briggs, that was a good laugh last year :)

When i went to AIK Stockholm v. Helsingbourgs they had 2% lager on sale and from what i remember the type of lager was the sponser of the team. First time i had ever been to a football match with a beer in hand :021:

I have a feeling in my bones that McBain will come on soon, possibly for Put-a-line-on :024: St Johnstone go 2 up on QOS...

Dunfermline 1 - Arabs 0 :005: Hope Barry Robson gets booked :015:

I'm listening to it on the BBC site, can you not access it through that?? Might be a blessing in disguise, i'm fed up of the commentator's husky tones already...

Glad Markus is playing ahead of McBain :021: Strong Motherwell team :020: I've got £5 on a draw :023:

Still thinking of heading along, so... Is it a long way to Tannadice from the Bus Station or Train Station??

Team news from BBC Inverness are without suspended trio Barry Wilson, Ross Tokely and Ian Black for the visit of Motherwell. However, captain Darren Dods returns from a one-game ban which saw him miss Caley Thistle's 1-1 draw with Falkirk a fortnight ago. Motherwell striker Scott McDonald is set to return after being dropped for the visit to Celtic - the club he will be joining in the summer. Jim Paterson and Paul Keegan are still sidelined with injuries I read on the motherwell site that McDonald was a major doubt for the game, but trained today so should be fit. Whether Malpas plays him or not is a different story...

Absolutely no chance. His wages are too high, and do we reeeaallllyyy need another center midfield player!! We do have a player with Man Utd connections though! Maybe he could get on the blower to Sir Alex to get one or two wonderkids on loan??

Do you think i'd be able to blag being a student with my 2005/06 Aberdeen Uni card?? :024:

BECAUSE OF ELTON JOHN! taken from teamtalk.com The singer will play a concert at the club's Caledonian Stadium on July 15, a date which clashes with the second round of the tournament. Director of football Graeme Bennett said: "We're withdrawing our interest in the Intertoto Cup. "The cup dates clash with an Elton John concert at the stadium which would've been a big issue. "We were also left hanging on so late last year to find if we were in the Intertoto that we don't want the same hassle. "We'll now look to fix up a training camp in Italy." Meanwhile, Gary McSwegan wants an answer from Caley Thistle boss Charlie Christie on his future. The striker, 36, has made two starts since signing from Ross County last August and is out of contract in June. He said: "I accept the club are probably hanging off to see what develops with players coming in. "But the sooner my situation is sorted out the better."

I'd be extremely surprised if that isn't the lineup CC goes for :025:

Absolutely fantastic news if true... I've heard a lot of rumours in Aberdeen saying Jimmy Calderwood was looking at signing him to replace Richie Byrne.

Steven Milne would be worth a look too

Me!

An Elgin City fan was telling me about this a while ago. Apparently if they come last again, they have to reapply for SFL status (or something like that). He seemed very certain they'd get it though... Someone else may have a better knowledge than i on the subject

Here is the Dunfermline team news.... (good to see Burchill is doubtful!) DUNFERMLINE STRIKER MARK Burchill looks set to miss tomorrow’s game against Inverness Caledonian Thistle despite scoring for the reserves this week. Burchill, who is on the mend following a double-hernia operation, netted the Pars’ only goal in a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Hibs at East End Park. He played the full 90 minutes on Tuesday, but is feeling the effects, manager Stephen Kenny said. Kenny had hoped to include him in the squad to travel north, but it looks as though the Caley game has come too soon for the 26-year-old. The Pars boss told Courier Sport, “He’s short of fitness and is unlikely to play against Inverness. “He played the 90 minutes against Hibs, but is feeling a bit stiff so we’ll have to assess how he is. “It’s more likely he’ll play in the reserves against Hearts at Riccarton next week.” Kenny is also without Darren Young, who has a calf injury, and Greg Shields, who is struggling with a hamstring problem. Skipper Scott Thomson, who has been on the long-term sick list with a troublesome achilles, has resumed light training but Kenny said it was still too early to say when he would be back to full fitness. Meanwhile, Shields has set his sights on a Scottish Cup semi-final return after admitting he was naive about his torn hamstring. The experienced former Charlton and Kilmarnock player is planning to start training with the rest of his team-mates in the next fortnight in the hope he will be fit for the April 15 showdown with Hibs. With the Pars languishing at the SPL basement nine points adrift of safety, Shields’ seven-week absence has left him tearing his hair out. The 30-year-old suffered an aborted comeback two weeks ago as he made the problem worse by returning to training but he plans to give himself the best chance of being fit for Hampden next month. “The aim is to try to get back for the semi-final,” he said. “I am hoping to start training again with the boys at the end of March or the start of April. “I will start jogging and pick it up from there. “I have been doing a lot of bike work in the gym and doing a lot on my hamstring. “It has been very frustrating and perhaps I have shown a bit of naivety with this injury. “It is an injury that is new to me and there is a fine line between being OK and not. “I started back jogging before the Partick Thistle game a few weeks back and that was all right but it’s when I started to sprint that I found a problem. “I got found out and the doctors said it made an even bigger tear. “If I come back again too soon and do it again that could be me out for the rest of the season
