Rank rotten performance, BUT, they did keep fighting until the end so that's at least one positive for me.

The ref... this boy is unreal.  The freekick he gave Hibs that they got their goal from - fuck me.   We completely switched off there though and allowed the left back to put that cross in.

Would love a forward like the boy who scored the two for Motherwell last week - pace to burn and a handful for defenders.

 

 
You mean the boy who hadn't scored or assisted all season until we made it easy for him?

 
Aye, that boy.

Still blows my mind anybody, regardless of your political leanings, could watch Trump speak and think "he seems a stable. articulate, well rounded individual, I think I'd like him to be our leader".

That Project 25 stuff is frightening. 

C'mon Harris.

 
We forget that nobody could understand why anyone voted for George W Bush. We all knew very little about middle America.

It’s not like you can fact check Trump. He tells stories and people believe what they want to believe.

Remember Farage managed to convince the majority of UK electorate that leaving the EU would be a good thing.

True.  Dubya seems relatively sane compared to Frump,

Some of the comments from speakers at his rally at MSG the other night- thon boy Cardone saying "her pimp handlers will destroy our country;" about Harris and the other guy David Rem calling her "the devil" and "the anti-Christ." 

Pretty depressing stuff.  That's of course after they played the song Dixie at the start of the event.   They are not even trying to hide it anymore.

First half utter pish, couldn’t string 2 passes together.

Thought that was Trapanovski’s poorest game for us so far, was getting nothing out of their right back… well until he skinned him to set up the first goal!

Looked so much better after Louis came on.

The ref… their number 11 committed two cynical fouls in the space of 2 minutes just before the red card incident - no booking.  Then the boy gets a yellow for that challenge on Ferry which was nothing really.

Yep, lets get back to a back 4 in this game please.  I don't see Miler as a right-back but he should be able to play there for this game.

Much better than Saturday, against much poorer opposition right enough.   The Macedonians both look good, think they could be very good players once up to speed.  Given he's been on the bench for both games, I wonder if Watt has been told by Goodwin he's going to be a bench-warmer this season and he's taken the huff.

What a shite tournament it's been btw. Boring, boring, robotic football.

What has happened to our game? 

P.s. England are gonna shitehouse their way to winning this just like Greece did. Brutal stuff.

Pep Guardiola happened to it,  And now every coach regardless of what level they are at try to copy his whole philosophy.  I am longing for the day when a coach comes along and says "lets not do this any more" and goes back to trying to have individual skilful players expressing themselves and taking risks again.


 

Re the co-commentators.  I was over in Germany for a week and watched a couple of games in our hotel.  Whatever German channel it was on they only had a commentator, no co-commentator; I obviously could not understand them but got me thinking how refreshing it would be to go back to just having a commentator and not have some wittering half-wit making a comment about every other thing that happens.

Thought Ferry looked skilful and very good technically, the Croat boy looked solid.   O'Donnell looked very good too.

As said, first game after a weeks training so we can't take much out of it, its was a fitness exercise.  

Tough opener at Falkirk - they will be on a high from last season but of course going unbeaten can means a huge hangover the following season.   We need to make up for that shit-show there in the dinghy cup last year.

Some chancer buying one then hoping a shirt collector thinks it either an original 94 shirt or doesn't realise you can still order one of the repro ones still.

Totally forgot about the boy Docherty.  I assume he'd be on a pretty big wedge at Hull to probably out of our price range?  Who knows.

As for Banks - another kid who was hyped up way beyond his ability I fear.   As mentioned, he could not wait to get away, I suppose you cannot blame these kids who see the bright lights of the Premier League dangled in front of them.  A no thanks for me on that one I think.
