Really annoys me when they balloon the ball miles over the bar and the commentator says "it was on his weaker foot" as if that's okay. Completely agree. Amazes me that kids aren't (properly) taught to play with both feet as a matter of course. Crazy that players get to pro level and still have a 'weaker foot'! 1 Link to comment

AyrshireSheep Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I wonder what the announcement that Dave Cormack has just teased on Twitter will be about? Says him an Simmy will do it live at 10.15 tomorrow morning. Stadium development maybe? Can't see it being a player as it'd certainly be a 1st ? Link to comment

JET injured and the game turned in their favour. Also Ramirez was clearly not fit enough to play the 90 but was left on which puts a question mark on what he's got for Sunday. A third striker will get loads of minutes so its a no brainer to get it done. Aye, definitely. Another forward thinking midfielder required as well imo. Link to comment

And of course he's going no where until McInnes gets a new job anyway why you two picking up on whether shinnie would sign for us as opposed to mcinnes not being the manager Link to comment

Happy about that Fergie is playing well again and I believe can only get better under Glass. Has a great seasn this time and he should be looking at slightly higher than Watford. Link to comment
