  1. I think we’ve played pretty well too tbh. Looked solid and occasionally dangerous
  2. It would be … interesting if he did I’d like to see what they’re reporting - three at the back
  3. Whatever happens, it’s the first time in over twenty years that we’ve reached the QF of both domestic cups in the same season. Taking the cups seriously shouldn’t be comment-worthy, but bloody hell it is for us.
  4. If you think that the European Cup is the European equivalent of the FA Cup, then there’s little more I can write. Bloody hell …
  5. Getting misty eyed thinking about the Gallowgate bogs. Though that might be a physical memory of the strong pissy ammonia smell
  6. Nowt would make me happier than bagging some tin pots and then sailing off to a brand spanking new ground, no doubt about that
  7. It’s not our identity man - and to go all ‘ship of Theseus’, not one of those stands has seen us win a major trophy
  8. I wonder if anyone has ever knocked the league champions out of two cup competitions in the same season?
  9. Yep, you’re right there. It’s FMV where the biggest problem lies though - the Sky Six deciding what our deals should be worth relative to theirs effectively fixes us in position forever.
  10. You should see what a few wins do mind
  11. We have voted for most of them (from memory, we didn’t on the initial FMV back in late 2021). Otherwise, we’ve ticked them off with the other clubs.
  12. No, it’s more like a European League Cup. The Texaco Cup were never recognised competitions
  13. Dyer was highly rated in his teens and the first half of his twenties. Easy to forget, but when the Ayia Napa scandal was printed in the News of the Screws in 2000, it was Dyer - not Rio Ferdinand or Frank Lampard - who was the biggest ‘name’ caught out, and the one who’s name was most prominent. He pissed his career away, unfortunately. He was a real talent. Bloody awful what’s happening with his health, and to be fair to the bloke he comes across quite well these days; he seems to have become self-aware. It’s a real shame that he didn’t when he was playing.
  14. Missed the only one I can think of - vs Chelsea in a shootout
