  1. When you're outclassed on paper against a higher ranked superior team, some managers park the bus and play on the counter to win the game. That's what Michael O'Neill is good at. He proved it when NI qualified for Euro 2016 and we didn't. Reverse the roles, and we'd be celebrating our team's great performance
  2. Extremely limited players, that played out their skin.
  3. Well said. Nobody on the thread has mentioned how well the Nordies played. I noted their players were going down with cramp on 74 mins. They were knocking their pans oot (and injuring our captain in the process). No wonder i wanted Tierney rested tonight. It was like a Euro playoff for them. Fair play to Michael O'Neil. He'll be successful with them again
  4. I don't. In fact i wouldn't start him. We know what he can do and how important he is to us. Why risk him in what will be a physical derby match game? I'd only bring him on if his replacement (probably Souttar) is struggling.
  5. Cead has shown us over the years that he only looks at a player's stats. As Diamond Scot points out above, Cead would have written off a 20yr old Harry Kane.
  6. It's part of the plan to lure our opponents into a false sense of security
  7. Totally agree. That's the point of friendlies of course, and why this game was very useful. I think he does. Keep him on the bench and let him compete with McGinn.... for now. I expect him to start against NI
  8. Good job i'm also bringing a suitcase with Levi's and packs of Marlboro to persuade the ladies of east Berlin then!
  9. I wouldn't worry about that. The Welsh fans are arrogant enough that 90% of them will have booked flights and a hotel as soon as they secured a playoff spot 😜
  10. Kilt and a fake huge boaby to flash at the locals and scare the children (i saw this in Milan once) Trainers (Adidas Sambas) Glengarry with as meany pheasant feathers as possible to (literally) get up the noses of the fans behind me Club top (will switch between Aberdeen and Rangers, depending on present company)
  11. It's an abbreviation comes from the Fifa computer game. Just wait till you find out about Registas and Raumsdeuters from the Football Manager game. 😛
  12. Probably. Still, it helps me justify my irrational hatred of Dinosaur Dyche
  13. Sean Dyche slapping Nathan Paterson around.... Everton’s training camp in Portugal this week was marred by an altercation between manager Sean Dyche and several of his players. Mail Sport has learned Dyche shocked his squad by aiming a jocular slap at the head of defender Nathan Patterson, 22, during a meal in the Algarve resort of Quinta do Lago. Dyche’s intentions were harmless and it was an otherwise good-natured evening, but the 52-year-old appears to have connected with Patterson more forcefully than he intended to, leaving some of his players unimpressed. Scotland right back Patterson was embarrassed to be the centre of attention, and tempers became sufficiently heated for captain James Tarkowski to step in. He took Dyche to one side to allow any lingering ill-feeling to subside. The pair left the table for a while before returning to finish their meals with the rest of the squad. Dyche is understood to have apologised to Patterson.
  14. Well that was entirely predictable.
  15. I agree with that. Too many folk (on Twatter mainly) implying the guy that's built the best squad togetherness and 'club atmosphere' since the 90s suddenly doesn't know what he's doing.
