I haven’t checked my facts here, so I could be wrong, but I reckon the last time we scored seven goals (against St Mirren) we lost the very next game (against the same opposition). If we can deduce anything from this two point observation it is that teams rebounding from an embarrassing defeat are more dangerous than teams on the crest of a great result.
Celtic will have been flowing in training this week whereas Motherwell will have re-examined every aspect of their club, team and tactics after their cup exit to Albion Rovers. If we produce a similar performance and result to the one we achieved at Tynecastle last week it will be an outstanding achievement.
Would like to see Biton and Mulgrew play in similar central roles tonight.
Many thanks to those who bid on the charity auction for lunch at Cinc Sentis in Barcelona. Highest bid is currently £82, if you’re going out next week, treat yourself………
“The question though is why the near obsession for the club’s history?
I don’t think there is a need for me to repeat the already well-trodden road of our club’s history and culture. In my opinion, I feel that it centres on the roots of the club……. that the club was formed to serve a community but grew to be far much more than that. It’s not about a business, a result, customers or a tournament. We view it as people with the supporters at its heart, something that is being lost at most other large clubs.”

Head of SFA wants to know why no former Ran*ers players were involved in the draw.
Great draw for the Master Biter….
England will be on Amazon.com at a knock-down 100/1.
For anybody going to the game – 20 minute delays to trains to Motherwell apparently.
I think England have more to fear in Uruguay than Italy. Italy are rank rotten England will beat Italy .
Fixed Odds Time…….or Heading for the Poorhouse !
Head to head seems to have lost out to the Law of Averages recently, with Everton winning at Old Trafford and the Wee a Rovers recording their first competitive win against Murderwell.
In England this weekend ….
Arsenal haven’ t lost at home to Everton in last 16 meetings.
Liverpool undefeated at home to WHam in last 47 games, going back to 1963.
Man U undefeated in last 33 at home to Newcastle going back to 1972.
Chelsea undefeated in last 9 visits to Stoke.
Bournemouth have won once in 10 visits to Reading.

Cowdenbeath have poor record v Livi, winning 1 in 12 h and a
At Morton, Dundee have 5 wins, 1 draw in last 6 visits.
Forfar have won once in 20 visits to Dunfermline.
Ayr United 11s at the Rory Bremner show.
Fingers crossed for tonight. Hail, Hail!
Don’t fancy England’s chances in that group to be honest.
Nigeria could qualify with Argentina from their group.
Just listened to Roy Hodgson talking about the draw and Nelson Mandela. Smart cookie. He was in the running when Kenny and John Barnes came to CP.

Andrew Ellis and Chris Akers with David Gilmour once tried to buy a controlling interest from Murray. They nicknamed the negotiations ‘Project Charlotte’.
Did Ellis have a bank account in Charlottes name? Don’t think he has a Virgin Isles islands. Who does?
– BOBBY MURDOCH’S CURLED-UP WINKLEPICKERS ………FC not PLC @ 09:58 – Ah!
BakuBhoy @ 09:10
I had heard of that but your post promted me to research it. Fantastic! Great wee story. It’s 5pm. (When I did this) I’ve just had my breakfast and already, I’ll learned something.
Oh what a web we weave when first we plan to decieve.

That daft Morrisseythe23rd on the wind-up must have been tired when he posted on there. RFC formed in 2014! What a fanny!
World Cup draw looks a bit odd, or unbalanced, maybe because we are used to
the UEFA pots in the CL.
Green Brigade should have Mandela display every week – lets see what the establishment do ! And no better man to pay tribute to !
So if Nir Biton is out do we change it a little and go 4-3-3
with Kris Anto & Teemu orrrrrrr put in T Rogic or someone else in MF & go with Kris & Anto up front?
