Another good one I heard - "I'm voting Leave because David Cameron only wants us to stay in so that he can get a job at the EU when he stops being prime minister, like all his predecessors....like Neil Kinnock!"

Interesting. I suppose it stands to reason that many of the people who people Scotland should control it's own affairs also believe that Scotland should control it's own affairs, even if their leaders take a more muddled and unprincipled stance.

Agree that Croatia look really good. I see that the 3 teams that finished above Scotland in qualifying are all through to the knockout stages.

Hopefully Iceland!

One of the refereshing things from this tournament is the novelty of seeing the "lesser" teams, rather than the usual suspects who are always there. The fans of the likes of Wales, N Ireland and Iceland have given brilliant support to their teams - they are just so grateful to be there. Which got me thinking.... Rather than a protracted qualifying tournament over 18 months, we don't they just select the 24 qualifiers on a rotation basis, so everyone gets a turn! The next tournament will therefore comprise the likes of Luxembourg, Finland, Liechtenstein, Faroe Islands, Armenia and of course Scotland...who might then get out of their group and into the knock-out stages (where they will probably lose to Georgia).

If it's the one I'm thinking of, we won 2-0 but it didn't get much coverage on the news that night..... Is that a young Grant Munro wearing 15?

Tremendous for Wales, great performance, but Russia must be the worst team in the tournament - is this what happens when they are clean?! When OFW is at the Stade de France next week, he should perhaps take a moment to look forward to our trip to Central Park....

Was that the one when he scored from out quite near the touchline, or was that a different game at Ayr?

That'll be the best goal Gordon Ramsay has ever witnessed!

What they lack is an experienced tournament goalscorer, someone like Germany's Thomas Molar.

Time to give out some more caps?

The opposite way to Thomas Mair, the latest Leave ambassador to be added to that list!

Iceland remain unbeaten. Their success is partly down to their coach being a dentist - they must have great training drills.....

Was it your wedding anniversary?

It's not uncommon for young attacking players to be given defensive roles in reserve matches, purely to improve their all round game and defensive qualities and perhaps toughen them up a bit. It doesn't necessarily mean they are any good there.

In terms of potential attendances and income, before the split we get 2 home games against each of Celtic, Rangers and County! Only 1 v Aberdeen and Hearts, but overall our board will be very pleased with the draw.

Bobby Mann caretaker-managed Dundee for a couple of games in Division 1 (the same season he swept the board with all their player of the season awards) and was assistant to Steve Paterson whilst playing for Formartine. And what a player he was, one of the most talented defenders we've ever had, despite his weight problems. Outstanding when it came to positioning and ball winning, whilst his distribution to the wingers was the stuff of legend. I stumbled across some footage of him taken last year, and nobody will be surprised to learn that he's not got any slimmer..... If you play the video below, you'll see him from about 5 to 8 seconds. https://www.eveningtelegraph.co.uk/2015/11/18/watch-as-the-tele-takes-on-dundee-and-united-legends-at-bubble-soccer/

Best not mention the time I helped my uncle jack off a horse!

A wee note to the person who drafted the ICT press release on Mulraney - there's a huge difference between him becoming "a fan's favourite" and "a fans' favourite" Grammar and punctuation might seem pedantic, but it's the difference between knowing your shit and knowing you're shit!

I'm sure I've read though that Rangers are paying for Josh Windass and Jordan Rossiter in the same scenario. It seems that the compensation is a fraction of what their club would have received had the player gone to another English club, but there is a fee to pay all the same.

I get confused by the various transfer regulations, but if he is 20 and turned down an extension from QPR, aren't they due a development fee?

A more pertinent observation is that both this season and last, our competitive season kicks off on 16th July......but instead of the glamour of Astra in the Europa League, we have the glamour of Cowdenbeath at Central Park!

A random observation is that our September comprises just Aberdeen, Celtic and Dundee, and so does November. Drops mic.....

Anyone know why don't Killie want him any more?

What has Sydney got that Inverness hasn't? Sydney Opera House................Eden Court! Harbour Bridge...............Kessock Bridge!
