The point is, if it happened would you eventually move on, or would you spend the rest of your life being bitter about losing the battle and bringing the new club down at every opportunity because you didn't like the outcome.

I'm surprised they even served cocktails.

Perhaps the most positive aspect of this story is that by wanting Black to stay, Butcher is confirming that he is planning on being here next season!

I happened to be at Tannadice when he scored 3 fantastic strikes. Commentators were suggesting it was the best hatrick they'd ever seen, it certainly was for me.

Don't like it myself. And it is gramatically incorrect. And it makes the subsequent letters lower case which you don't always want. But I see the point about stopping shouting.

Patron saint of foreign duds!

If we get Brazil then 5thStand may be onto something. The imbalance is because Hibs and Motherwell are in the "wrong" half of the league, but I'm not sure how they sort it. Presumably they have to look at the other 5 teams in the bottom half and see who has too many home games.

BBC commentators on Saturday were saying that he would miss the next league game if we went out of the cup. But sometimes they don't interpret the rules correctly.

Found that team, some good players but no superstars at that point : Speroni; Mackay, Wilkie, Khizanishvili, Hernandez; Rae, Nemsadze, Brady; Milne (Novo, 62), Lovell (Mair, 88), Caballero. Substitutes not used: Langfield (gk), Beith, Robb.

How could I forget! I think Caledonian FC faced Gary Lineker in 1982-ish.

Hard to see past Henrik Larsson. But just how many did he put past us? There's also Gazza & co from the Cup in 1995(ish?). Was Laudrup in that team? You can also add in a load of players who history will show were great players, but not when they played against us eg Ian Wright, Mark Viduka. Did we ever face Moravcik or Hartson? I'm also struggling to remember if Dundee All Stars had any of their big names players at the time we faced them in the semi at Hampden.

People might have success with 4-2-4 in Football Manager etc, but how many teams actually use it? There are good reasons why they don't.

Hmm, my parents are going to be in Munich on the day of the gig. And they said they were going for the sightseeing

Long walk to the game....

If that's true his brother has a different surname... Did Lionel also say he was George Weah's cousin

At the risk of going off-topic slightly, it struck me a while back that all the footballers I can think of who have been referred to as a "bombscare" have been black defenders. eg Tebily, Balde, Bamba, Lionel. Is that part of the definition or is it just coincidence?

Duncan was obviously trying to get the numbers evened out. But yes it was blatant cheating, worse than Lennon. But like diving for a penalty, we tend to find it justifiable when its our own player.

Having now seen the penalty incident on TV, I'm not critical of Lionel, he was naive but a bit unlucky.

Apart from today, I presume?

Ah well. It's the league that matters, of course. Just had a horrible thought. Falkirk put us out of the CIS cup. Falkirk put us out of the Scottish cup. Falkirk to relegate us? Not feeling very optimistic at the moment.

I think a few Tulloch homes have been made available over the years.

On again at 5.45 this evening. The Huns must be loving it. Might just tune in for the last 5 minutes.

Possibly, but it may be the case that the manager is looking for players with a bit more physical presence for the fight. Vigurs' neat football may have to wait til next season.

Aye, the one who said "It's a common misconception that Aberdeen fans are obsessed with former glories" and couldn't see the irony that his username was Gothenburg83
