Because Ayr didn't have Stuart Duff when we played them?

Just being a geek, probably! Anyway, this subject is getting far too many Collum inches.

Could some of that just be SPL monies not payable until after the end of the season, and which we would not have had at all the previous year?

Looks like our injury list is worse than we had been led to believe. Apparently the scars are taking a long time to heal...

That surely ranks quite high up the list of "Phrases you never thought you'd see".

Lithuania 0-0 Liechtenstein full time! Cesnauskis red carded.

3rd place on Sickipedia? My mother will be so proud. This one is my favourite, possibly Thai? I can't help wondering if they are reporting this as genuine BBC transfer news.

Out of curiosity I googled "Skor de Gaulle" last night and was amused to note that just one day after the gag originated here, it now appears on dozens of websites (mostly football forums but joke websites too) from here to Australia, with some posters mentioning that they received it by text. It's appeared on an Iranian sports site, and also on foreign language forums in Belgium, Norway, Portugal and Turkey. Interestingly the majority of instances refer to Arsenal trying to sign the 3 Belgians, which is a neat adaptation given their predicament. The power of the internet, eh? Now I can just sit back and let the royalties roll in........

But do you think he'll make the bench?!

There were actually dozens of cups in the cabinet at Kingsmills, but they were the polystyrene ones used for Bovril.

And we are still looking for 1 more player according to that article.

Good idea, much safer than sleeping pills.

You heard it here first - and now it's gone global! But I'd rather they started their posts with "Shamelessly nicked from Caleythistleonline" :angry:

Can you tell us a bit about him?

Well done to all involved.

Just spotted this on the BBC's website transfer deadline day page: Tim, Keighley via text: "Arsenal interested in Belgian defender Mark de Man. Apparently, they are also interested in his compatriots, striker Skor de Gaulle and goalkeeper Bloek de Schott."

Trial extended after he suffered a muscle tear. Came off the bench and scored at the weekend in a friendly and seems to be in line for a contract offer. Billy Mehmet was also on trial with them but didn't make the grade.

He'd be known in Scotland as Crusty!

And then there's the tricky winger, Kros de Bols. We signed his less fortunate Irish cousin, Dislocate de Shoulder.

From the BBC Gossip page: Seriously?! You half expect the article to continue that they are also interested in his compatriots, striker Skor de Gaulle and goalkeeper Bloek de Schott.

The current injury crisis gets young players like Greig closer to the first team for a short while BUT reduces their chances of getting match experience by going out on loan. Normally we'd have sent a player or two to the likes of Elgin by this stage of the season.

It's for our SPL season, with all the associated TV money etc. Source - Chairman's Report Translation : if we hadn't sold the Social Club, and if the directors hadn't put more money in, we wouldn't have had enough money to pay the bills. It's nothing to panic about, but highlights that the club will not be sustainable in its current form without regular injections of cash, significantly increased prize money, or a drastically reduced wage bill.

The other point of note is that we made of loss of ?190,000 for 2010/11 despite the profit on selling the social club property. Does anyone have a copy of the accounts to give a bit more understanding of our underlying performance? It sounds like the recent cash injection is something that will be needed annually just to cover our losses.

Until they get a better manager, perhaps. I'm surprised they've been so supportive of Calderwood when results and performances don't seem to justify it.
