MILITARY MISSION is 28/1 with William Hill and I have a smaller Bet also on SERPERTINE at odds of 40/1.
TWO EACH WAY Bets, and a couple of FORECAST bets with the FAV and the 2nd FAV…Just for fun.
Cheers and HH MICK

Good article by James Forrest on the theme of jersey pulling in the box. Echoes my thoughts entirely. Pre-VAR the referee could easily miss such incidents in a crowded area. Post-VAR the technology provides no such excuse. But we are all over the shop in Scozia.
Simplicity is an underrated skill in life. Any idiot can complicate. Put simply jersey pulling in the box is either a penalty or its not. With VAR it’s possible to catch almost all such incidents. Discretion shouldn’t come into it.
Goldson won a game changing penalty last week. The issue isn’t whether the offence was a foul or not. The issue is whether Boyce would have won a penalty had Goldson pulled him in exactly the same way – nothing more, nothing less. We all know the answer.
Oh yesterday was jersey pulled = no penalty. We pay, and pay plenty, for this VAR rubbish. We need to drill down on this jersey pulling stuff and ask for clarification. If the powers that be contend that every jersey pull in the box isn’t a foul, then they should clearly distinguish between incidents that are from those they say are not, and fully explain the basis of their arguments.

Wasn’t one of our earliest VAR decision going against us for Starfeldt pulling a jersey when the player was running away from goal?

Last night before the kick-off Aberdeen v Hibs the commentator said, “This season’s Viaplay Cup gives teams the opportunity to end the Old Firm’s domination of the cups in Scotland.”
Whit?
In the past 11 years Rangers have won one solitary cup. In the past 4 years St Johnstone have won 2 cups.
Interesting to see Athletico encouraging visiting fans to go on their stadium tour. It does look pretty cool but I noticed several former players from 74 in their hall of fame including Garate who scored the decisive goal to give them a lead in the second leg with about 15 mins to go I recall.
Not sure it would be euros well spent really.
So good though that Brendan clearly is prioritising this game and clearly has a belief we can get something. A draw here and a win v misfiring Lazio in Italy might give us the chance we deserve.
I’m the eternal optimist, I really do think we can Win over there, Simeone is odious and he will do anything, ANYTHING to Win.
This is a biggie.

Had a visitor here for the past few days and she asked yesterday was anything happening here in Donegal for ‘bonfire night’ I told her no as we don’t celebrate burning Catholics in Ireland.
The stunned look on her face was a sight to behold!

Did Yang not set up O’Reilly for his goal against Aberdeen?
TinyTim on
Having just checked .Yang has produced 1 assist to Matt O’Riley for our 3rd goal in our 3-1 win at Pittodrie.
The Pool Table was Awesome @ the Stixxs, you ever played US Pool?
It is Magicla you are like my Son, scarey at Pool…..Every Pot is “are you mental?”.

Highlight of the week for me was Big Oh’s winner v St Mirren.
Not a goal when we are coasting .
An emphatic strike when the pressure was on .
A match winning moment .

BIG JIMMY
………………
Ive had a wee look at the Bookies odds for BOTH Horses and it looks like MILITARY MISSION is around 30/1……and SERPERTINE is around 40/1 ?
If correct, those are GOOD Odds for EACH WAY Bets ?
The MELBOURNE CUP will be run on TUESDAY NOV.7th at 3pm AEDT Time.
What ” Time” is that in SCOTLAND….Does anyone know ?

TOM MCLAUGHLIN,
Goodlad of Radio Scotland said much the same thing a couple of days ago.

That is Powerful.
.
I reckon young Yang is being considered for the Atletico game
Garyg…
Thete is no relevence in the direction of the playrt. A foul is a foul, end of.
So far as I can recall.
Up until now .
Young Yang Ha’s not produced a goal ,a goal assist ,or had a decent shot on target .
He has had many step overs ,off target shots ,over dribbled ,
He has the physique,and good dribbling skills ,but to succeed his decision making and final ball must improve .
Compare with Palma.
TT
BTW playrt is greek for player. A not so well known fact.
Post to read back
Big Jimmy – Thanks for the Birthday wishes.

Shortbread had an amazing factoid if true.
Hearts have never beaten any of the rangers versions at Hampden in their history.
Their cup win against original rangers was at Celtic park
