Yip.

Lionel is a free agent! It's a sad state of affairs when LDZ would strengthen our defence.

Phew, final whistle!

Would one more make this our heaviest ever defeat?

Samaras again.

What took you so long! The starting line up made it clear that Terry wasn't expecting to win this one.

2-0 now. Incredibly one sided. This could get very embarrassing.

Samaras through on goal and blasted the bar. Have we touched the ball yet?

I think our phrase for tonight is "It's the league that matters".

Another bit of useless trivia is that Eagle went on trial in the summer with Leyton Orient, along with Darren Lough and Kenny Gillet.

I was curious as to what happened to the various players who Terry decided he didn't want. Here's what I've found. Recent Trialists Callum Morris (ex-Newcastle and Ireland U21 defender) - Blyth Spartans Darren Lough (left back, ex-Newcastle) - Ashington AFC Andy Milne (ex-Leeds) - signed for Barrow, but soon got loaned out to Gainsborough Trinity Samuel Oji - still unattached as far as I can see. He was the one who seemed very injury prone, and never featured for us in any friendlies. Gary Mackay Steven - still unattached as far as I can see. He was the other one who seemed very injury prone. Players Released Dan Stratford - Hereford (League 2) Robert Eagle - Grimsby (Conference) Nauris Bulvitis - FK Ventspils (Latvia) Jamie Duff - Elgin Lionel Djebi-Zadi - no idea. I suspect he's playing non-league somewhere in France. Andrew Barrowman - gave up on football altogether Feel free to correct or add to this, or to go back further than last season. All in all though, I don't think Terry will be losing any sleep that he let a star slip through his hands.

To add to their woes, Jocky's Scott's legal case against Dundee starts this week. Someone was telling me BTW that Jocky now works as a delivery man for a florist. If I can find out which one it is, I might arrange for them (ie Jocky) to deliver a wreath to Dens with the message "Wha's in charge?!"

At the end of the day, ICT beating them to the title could well end up with Dundee FC going into freefall, resulting in yet more misery for their management, players and fans.

Best of all, the special surprise that couldn't be mentioned in that article is that the female steward from Easter Road will be personally making amends by offering herself to any ICT fan, provided they do it standing up.

More to the point, which group of fans will see more crosses?

In that pic of Blackie, is it just a trick of the light or is he living up to his "hard man" image, if you see what I mean?

I'm pretty sure that any U21 who is playing regularly in the SPL will be considered, at least, for the national squad.

Given the Pope's opposition to the use of condoms, I always have a wee chuckle when I hear news coverage referring to the fact that he's got "aides".

I had actually wondered whether a thread about the Pope's visit should be in Serious Topics, but I think I got it right.

Elected into his position by way of a secretive process behind closed doors, involving men in funny gowns who some say have been involved in years of cover ups and deception. He is now idolised across the world, with people travelling far and wide just to get a glimpse of him, desperately hoping that he will address the crowds and impart his wisdom. When he speaks, the world listens. But enough about Terry Butcher. The Pope's visit to Scotland is a hot topic this week. I doubt he's got an appointment scheduled with Terry, but I was reminded of a previous encounter between the two. Naughty Aussies

That list was compiled before this weekend's games. I think Paddy's latest solo effort might be a new entry at number one. There have been loads of crackers this season so far, enough to make a top 10 that compares well with the best from some entire seasons. I disagree with Chic's number one though, I thought there were several that were much better, and the more I see it the more I think the keeper could have done better.

Yeah I was wondering that too.

I just remembered from the days of unmasking Ewan "Cyril" Murray that we found stuff about him on a London Hearts Supporters website. It seems that they gather to watch games in this pub in Paddington, so if you can "bear" to watch it with them....

(It was Thicko.) I thought Bamba was pretty immense, a far better and stronger player than I recall us facing when he was a Par. He seemed to win every ball that went anywhere near him, and Rooney was getting nothing out of him. He perhaps got a bit complacent later on and we picked his pocket when in possession a couple of times.
