On a lighter note, seeing as they will be travelling over the bridge to our hallowed ground for the foreseeable, I have come across a suitable logo for their travelling (home AND away) support.

Where is the extra car parking space going to be though, for the caravans?

Say what? Is that the same as the "it's not the winning, it's the taking part" mantra for perpetual losers? Football, as a team sport, is about competition. I agree that not everyone can win the league or the cup, but they should be learning how to compete and not just kick a ball. If you go into a game thinking "it doesn't really matter if we beat them or not" then guess what? They'll get beat. If they go in thinking "we have the talent, the skill and the tactics to beat this opposition" then they are going in with the right attitude and they have a good chance of winning. It is only in individual sports where the person can claim that they are seeking only to improve on their personal best or their ranking position, even if that means they come last in a race or fail to win the medal on the course. A team is, correctly, judged on their results and their league position. If these lads are looking to take up professional football as a career, I am sure they will be very aware of the need to demonstrate competitive spirit. Otherwise they are just making up numbers.

He does have management experience at international level though, albeit with one at the bottom of the Top 50 in the FIFA Rankings.

Good thread CaleyD. Nice to see the club promoting the back-room staff and pointing out that a football club is more than just 11 players on the park. In a time when we are constantly being told depressing news about how young people aren't getting work, it is heartening to see someone getting an opportunity to work full time in a job they obviously enjoy.

Discovered what I was doing wrong! Ignore my previous post . . .

Content since last visit isn't working. I routinely get "no new threads" but if I go into the Forums I can see that posts had been made within last hour. Getting a bit annoying having to open the forums individually and then scan each entry to see if there has been something new added. Anyone else having this problem?

One thing the last forum had was the ability to take you to exactly the next post from the last one you had looked at on a thread, which was really handy. This one seems to have reverted to the same as most forums - click on the link and it takes you to the first post on the thread. Shame

According to local legend, that one is supposedly about the sinking of the RMS Titanic, where the local rag had the headline "North East man dies at sea" with the lesser tag line of "1,500 others also feared dead"! Mind you, that still happens in the papers today - major earthquakes and so on which have major loss of life are suddenly even more pertinent in British media eyes when there is at least one or more Brits involved. C'est la vie.

Good positive article in terms of stating ambition, but proof will be in the pudding. A win against the Paisley posse would be a good start.
