Take the point, but regarding the 50:50 thing you can be sure it wasn’t someone physically weak who came up with that stat.  Rather someone who was naturally strong who then made the most of what they’ve got.  You hear it a lot in golf (not comparing the two sports) about it being 90% in the head.  Usually stated by someone who was a+2 by the time they were 15 or some such.

and regarding the round stones, there’s a lot of technique in there as well particularly if they’re being lifted above waist height.  As awkward as they are heavy.

In relation to the latter part SMG, your mind has to equate to your physicality to enable you to have the technique to achieve such a feat or any another feat for that matter.

It may have been someone physically weak that come up with that 50:50 stat before my uncle relayed it to me (he took up weightlifting at approx 14), but it is bloody true though. I was only 7 stone before taking up weightlifting (can't do it now unfortunately) but through doing it regularly the mind and body worked together to get me to a decent weight and strength.

No, I know

Struggling to work out how you could think calderwood was "shit" though 

[strachanmcgheegoal]

A plan B might have been a handy tool to bring.  In case Macco, Diamondo and em Aluko-o decided not to turn up.

and yes, Consio too!

Tommy is spot on; they weigh a combined of over 52 stones (approx. 733 lbs), the equivalent of lifting two of this grotesque specimen....

Fair play to the young man for his self confidence but it appears no one rates him as highly as he rates himself

Ethan Ross - wanted by Queens Park. 

Turns down an extension with talk of going down to Blackburn and Southampton, and now he's being linked with a Scottish League 1 outfit. ?‍♂️

Might not be a bad move for him actually. 

Professional club now with investment that are planning to go places 

[Tommy]

AFC must be due a decent sum in development compensation.

Maybe a minimal fee and a large sell on clause can be agreed. If we are allowed to do that.

They've got very big ambitions. The dyke that was Hibs' chief exec is now QP chief exec and as has been said, they've had a big investment since deciding to go professional.

Looking to get up to the SPL within 5 years....sooner if possible.
