Unbelievable Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 He’s good enough to play Messi at the WC and mess up Barca in one of his first competitive games ever, but can he cut it on a wet, cold day in Stoke Edinburgh? Seemingly the answer is no. in all seriousness, not really a surprise if he’s under the weather having moved from Australian summer to Scottish winter last week.

There's also the fact that we Aussies live in a warm country and can't help but be curious about what it's like to live in a cold climate with slate grey skies and filthy ice slush all over the fucking place.

Gh0StFaC3 Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Anyone know if he's in contention for the Scottish Cup game against Hibs in a few hours? The game doesn't seem to be airing anywhere other than streaming through viaplay though, unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take your point though... he will never have encountered the level of spectator dislike and angst as he will have overnight. Disappointed he didn't get on.
