  1. I know these can be frustrating, but I looked at the results for the first 5 fixtures this year, and we are by no means the worst.

     

    I reckon there have been 18 goals scored in the last 10 minutes of a game.

     

    4 against Kilmaronock

    2 against Thistle, Celtic, Ross County, Hamilton, Dundee and Hibs

    1 against Motherwell and Rangers.

     

    Of course, they don't all change the result of the game like the 2 against us.

     

     

    But I thought it was worth noting that we're not really worse than anyone else.

  2. I was prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt when he applauded the JHS just before the kick off.

    But, as others have said, his constant elbowing and winding up of the crowd wasn't on.

     

    Also, had I been a Killie supporter, I wouldn't have been too impressed to see him go to the Thistle support at the end of the game.

  3. More fair points, but pretty sarcy. 'FibDems'? If we were that good at lying we'd have been in power years ago.

     

    Nat vote won't stay at 45%., but Salmond has gone there because he knows he can win.

     

    We voted it down, just (a swing of a few percentage points would of seen it different). But Independence is likely still coming and Salmond is going down to mix it up and make it happen.

     

    There is a about to be a massive constitutional bust up. Salmond still leads the SNP

     

    It isn't the quality of the lying I was commenting on, it was the quantity. If the Libdems were good at lying, we'd not know they were lying. :)

     

    But I agree about independence.

  4. As well as things being interesting in Scotland, with the SNP apparently getting away with arguing "If you want a labour government, you shouldn't vote labour, you should vote SNP", and nobody really challenging that, they will also be interesting in England.

     

    While I don't welcome the rise of UKIP, they've turned a lot of the electoral arithemetic upside down. Seats where the labour party were third behind the Tories and Fibdems are now potentially winnable for them, as the Fibdem vote will collapse and the Tories will lose at least some support to UKIP. So, I think some of their resources may well be re-directed towards seats which were previously written off. Probably to trying to pick up the Fibdem vote.

     

    And I'm not convinced that the Nats' support will stay at 45% levels in the face of a UK-orientated election campaign.

  5. Surely a point makes us safe tonight, even if Kilmarnock win provided it's not by more than 2 goals. If they win 2-0 and we draw;

     

    Thistle 36pts GD -20

    Killie. 36pts GD -21

    Hibs. 35pts. GD -19

     

    If this happens only one of them can catch us as they play each other. Or am I having a nightmare with the figures here?

     

    In this scenario, they can both catch us by drawing.

  6. I remember the look of bemusement on his face when he got abuse from the stand, possibly at his first Firhill appearance, when he casually strolled back up the park when the opposition were countering.

    Not impressive.
