Translated, that means cheating by diving.

He's definitely let himself go a bit:

Question: How do you tell if a car is male or female?

Greetings from the other place. At least that's where I'm guessing I've ended up, given the numptie I saw wearing an OF top. And now I see that all that fire and brimstone stuff was just propaganda. It's freezin' and p*shin' wi' rain, and on the tv it's eithe Nicky f****** Ross The Big Question, or Hollyoaks. Please, God; gimme another chance tae get outta here!

The big tim was already on a yellow card, so another would have meant that he got sent off. And sent off he should have been; no doubt about it. Same goes for Craigan, as his was aimed at preventing the ball from reaching the tic player just beyond him. I see that the scum were at it again with their sectarian songs.

Thanks for that info. There's in fact a brief shot of the Thistle fans and fence at the shed and it looked like there was nobody on the other side of it.

That's how I felt about the north terracing but at least there's a decent stand there, making that end of the ground look like we're in a football stadium. What'll happen at the city end is indeed just tragic.

Not guilty. But proof that great minds think like alkies alike!

One for Ronnie Glavin (Barnsley) here: One for Alan Hansen (Liverpool) here:

The depressing lack of quality on display at Hampden this afternoon got me trawling on Youtube, and I'm glad I did. How could one guy be as good as this?:

His Pete Docherty impersonation, maybe.

All OK...... But,.....what's that noise?..... JESUS CHR

If we'd started the season anywhere near the form that we showed in the final few months then we could have been challenging for promotion. We definitely finished on the up, with the defence looking solid, Grehan and Doolan working well together, Erskine showing more and more of what he has the potential to do and scoring into the bargain, and several promising youngsters starting to look the part. Since Buchanan left, we haven't lost any significant players. So even two or three good uns will help the cause. They don't have to be big names or stars (yet), but significant in the longer term, yes!

Yes, apart from a 10-min spell in the second half they didn't do much to suggest that they could even get a draw (except for the rasper of a shot that hit the bar in the first half). Not much of a game all round.

I've watched several by Motherwell in today's final. Totally, but totally wasted every time.

They must have made upwards of £500K last season, with their defeat of the tims in the semi-final then their Cup Final appearance against the Arabs.

Cup match vs. the tims. "Only" 16,800, according to the official handbook. Hmm...... Somehow I don't think so.

The tenth anniversary of this: Let's bring the good times back again!

To the undecided: Are you sure?

Correct. I reckon there will be a lot of emergency loan signings playing next season.

"A friendly super-injunction", which you've just broken. Enjoy your days in court!

Saw a brief interview with Craigan this morning before their match today. I've said it before, but he comes across as being several floors above other footballers in terms of communication skills and level-headedness. Realistically, though, Thistle were a minor diversion on what has otherwise been an unbroken and very lengthy Motherwell career. He's probably 'Well through and through.

He's digging himself into a hole.

If Barcelona can't make it, then St Mirren is a reasonable alternative.

I wonder if he'd fancy my old banger.
