The Football.....

[Mrs M]

I went to the Aberdeen v Hibs game today with Mr M.
Not been to Pittodrie for a while and quite enjoyed it ( got a free ticket)
Paul Lawrie was there and did a wee victory lap round the pitch carrying the claret jug.
Must be getting old as all the players looked like “schoolies”

Although I thought he was a decent appointment given what was available David Moyes was not a popular choice among the West Ham fans, but he is doing a very good job at the moment. A good performance and a narrow defeat against Man City, three points from Chelsea, a draw against Arsenal and a good win today has raised his stock considerably. I'm pleased for him as he was unfairly vilified after being sacked by Manchester United inspite of having the almost impossible task of following Lord Ferg. He's certainly tightened our leaky defence up.

I didn't want him but fair do's, the team is playing much better.

Good result for the Saintees, first league win at Ibrox since 1971 which is also their first away league win against the The Rangers / Sevco Franchise.

Good to see another former Bairn doing well. Good lad Blair Alston.

Been baltic here this week so Whitley Bay's home game and rezzies away fixture were both cancelled due to a frozen pitch.

Killie won, Boyd scoring again proving that he isn't as finished as I thought he was.

And Celtic have just been pumped off Hearts.

.......And Celtic have just been pumped off Hearts.

That's putting it politely mate. Fair play to the Jambos they grabbed the game by the scruff of the neck, Celtic stood by and watched them

Next couple of games for Celtic are going to be very interesting!

Very disappointing, not just to lose the unbeaten run, but the manner in which it was lost. All credit to Hearts, a terrific performance from them.

The loss was definitely coming (losing the 2 goal lead to Hibs, draws in the league prior to that), but certainly didn't think that it would come in the shape of a 4-0 thrashing.

Time to rest some players and give the younger guys a go for a couple of weeks.

Only the 7th time the "invincibles" have lost this season too.

Ah jeez, the cat's out of the bag, I was hoping that nobody noticed that we'd lost in Europe.

How f*cking dull - go 69 games unbeaten in domestic football, and all we get on here is snide attempts at humour. Scotland eh?

 

[User482]

Oh good. another Celtic bore-off.

 

[AndyRM]

It's an impressive one, no doubt. And led my idly curious brain to look up records in Scottish football.

Apparently Boumsong cost Newcastle £8m. It's no wonder Ashley is afraid of spending money on players!

And Tottenham spent £9m on Alan Hutton! I'm pretty sure Garry Hay broke his leg.

Scott Boyd that scored.

Boumsong was an odd one - reading up, it appears that Liverpool wanted him, but he went to Rangers (on a free) because they offered the best sign-on fee (how, I don't know).

He was only in the door at Rangers and then he left - presumably there was something dodgy with the deal.
