“The natives are restless” get f****d. Of course we’re annoyed at that nonsense football.

Speaking as someone who has high blood pressure, I am fairly certain that McCarthy playing for most of the season will be the thing that kills me stone dead.

Feel bad for Jakub there.

Yes. They'll just sign him next summer. They don't need to rush if he wants to go there.

Neither big lad working out? STEP FORWARD BOBBY

In Riis O'Hora Absolutely random midfielder from Man City or Brighton on loan who will be 18 and we'll be more excited about than the other two based on one YouTube clip Ball playing young defender on loan from somewhere in the prem who won't get into the matchday squad Probably another terrible keeper Out Souttar to Wrexham or Sheff Utd Mavididi to Stoke Faes to somewhere in Turkey on loan Okoli to somewhere in Italy on loan Cullen to an episode of Scooby Doo

I think my old dad will just call them both Dave. Once talked to an Everton fan who was convinced they had a Russian lad playing for them called Billy. Diniyar Bilyaletdinov.

I know the Hibs fans seem sad to see him potentially go, but so were Swansea fans for Cullen and Ipswich fans for Burns so that's probably not the best barometer.

I know we're all trying to think of reasons why he isn't going there but let's be realistic... he's just been to watch the team that he's heavily linked with in their directors box. He's as good as gone. If Souttar was at a Wrexham game or Hamza at a Derby game we would presume absolutely the same. Doesn't matter that he supports them, he knows the optics of doing something like this and if he wasn't leaving he wouldn't have been there. Is a shame as he's bloody great, but we are where we are now.

I am saying this while wearing a tin hat and hiding behind the sofa but... If we haven't signed any more defenders by Tuesday I don't think you can drop Thomas who has played well for two games in a row at CB. The Finnish lad has only played like 14 games in his whole career and that's been in a doggo league. I don't think he'll be starting yet. I'd drop Burns for Howell, Watson for Alves and Chaplin will probably be out so put whichever is the lesser of two evils there out of BDCR and Cullen.

I know we don’t like BDCR but at least he exists in a physical form

I’ll say this. Credit to BDCR for trying to get back and help there after Souttar dived in.

Sammy is class

Yes

Thomas has done really well against their number 9 a couple of times in the last five minutes.

Howell looks like he’s part of the Kennedy bloodline

I’m making my own entertainment

Such is the simmering rage in Bristic that when he eventually scores a goal he is going to celebrate like Temuri Ketsbaia did that one time.

The cut of RM’s trousers makes it look like he’s got a massive arse.

Wait. He made the right sub? Shocked

RAVANELLI!

STAY ON YOUR FEET WATSON FFS

Luke Thomas all of a sudden being half decent at CB is his Patrick Kisnorbo redemption arc.

Burns can’t pass, absolutely cannot beat his man, has zero pace as seen when he was trying to track back a few minutes ago. Rotten. Thank god he only cost a nominal fee because on current evidence he’s useless.

Burns is crap.
