  1. If Juan signs for us, let us hope that he is more Aston Martin rather than Austin Allegro - our previous Austin didn't run too well......
  2. His team didn't run out of steam, or sleepwalk anywhere last season. The teams at the foot of the table have pretty much all improved since the start of the year. Disappointing result for us. Still to beat Arbroath, but over the final quarter, the fight for play off places will be tight.
  3. Quite right, Paralytic Thistle! Well done! Confirmed in the photo caption, below. John Freebairn is one of the growing number of players who now have an extended biography, in the players section in The Archive . He was an excellent athlete, competing in games events well into his twilight years.
  4. Also known as "The Goal that Never Was" by Barry Cook.
  5. Tommy played in the final games of the old Inter City Fairs Cup that Newcastle won in 1969, beating Oldco on their way to the final, IIRC. When he finished playing, he went back to Armadale to run a pub for a decade or so, and then was involved in the haulage business. Sadly he injured his back, and took early retirement. One of the Newcastle players in their cup winning squad was one Allan Foggon. No truth in the rumour that he was the inspiration for a Lindisfarne hit song." "Foggon the Tyne its all mine all mine......"
  6. 27 January 1968. Tommy Gibb heading wide in the Scottish Cup 1st Round tie against Kilmarnock at Firhill. Well done Jaggernaut!!
  7. For those of you going to the match tonight, there will be a 1:00 pm pitch inspection in a few hours time.
  8. H, A For me, please. Thanks, BB. Unlucky, PTD, a brave campaign!!
  9. My hope for today is that the referee, unlike McLean last season, applies the rules of football, and not the Marquess of Queensbury Rules. To say that Dundee United players punch above their weight isn't intended as a compliment.
  10. SJ, the SPFL rules re players are Rules 16 & 17. They do differ from the SFA Cup Rules, and don't, to me, demand a named sub keeper. I've attached R16 and the start of 17. They do go on for a bit!
  11. Sorry for the delay in getting back on this one. I've been busy elsewhere. I suspect that we are talking on cross purposes here. Rule 14 ( below) is from the SFA Cup Rules. This sets out players eligible to play in a match, and does say a nominated substitute keeper must be on the team sheet. To answer Dick Dastardly, it could be an outfield player, but he can only be substituted for the playing goalkeeper, as a keeper. Rather than do that, bring back Kenny Arthur!! If a game is in play, and no substitute keeper can come on if all substitutes have been played or both the original and sub keeper have come off, an outfield player can indeed be nominated as goalkeeper. Oldco had to do this in a game at Parkhead when Roberts went in goal. If I've misinterpreted, happy to hold up my hand.
  12. Yes, GRE, we must. Rule 14 does state that a substitute (registered) goalkeeper needs to be named on the team sheet.
  13. Raith board announcement. They got it wrong; Badwillie won't play; the club will enter negotiations to cancel his contract. Who will he go to now? Falkirk? Dundee must be an option- they don't have any morals or scruples. The Boris of Scottish football!!
  14. I know that it's being courteous to shake the ref and other officials hand, or fist bump after a game, but where they miss blatant offences, why not ignore them? What do you say "Well played ref?" I expect the club make injustices known in match reports, but a public display of displeasure wouldn't go amiss.
  15. Hold on,.....it's Ayr United we're playing, not Raith Rovers
  16. Pleased to hear it. I've been told that I'm a member of the Bollocks club too... .....
  17. DD, we may not always see eye to eye on things Thistle. I do though wish you all the best, and hope you're well soon. I believe I speak for many, if not all, on this forum
  18. Are you thinking of Bebe? He was dumped in a Lisbon care home as a child. Not a success at Man U. Also Kleberson & Diego Forlan. You could add appointing David Moyes as his successor.
  19. For those of you travelling to Arbroath for the match tomorrow, it's been announced on the Arbroath FC twitter account that Covid passports will not be needed for the match.
  20. My six are as follows;- A,H,A,A,H,A. As ever, thanks BB.
  21. Glasgow Whingers' goalkeeper Aaron Cervantes (well-he is an American) signed on 7 day emergency loan. Official site. McCready cup tied with Gala Fairydean. In the squad for today's cup tie.
  22. Think you're correct in that Zak's shirt is toast, but Tunji has just signed a new contract, and if and when he moves on to greater things, his teeshirt will be a collector's item!! Get those orders in! Although personally speaking, I would give Elevenone a wee discount.....
  23. The Tunji teeshirt is still available in all sizes for discerning fans
  24. Yes, but the Jags were expected to be turned over by all of the other clubs, after being added to the League because of the demise of another club. That, thankfully, has been wishful thanking.
  25. Women's side gota 2-2 draw away at Motherwell in the League - good result!!
