Unfortunately I still can't bring myself to put winning a League Cup in the same bracket as a Scottish Cup. Just nae the same.

He needs to prove he has the balls to play 4 4 2 in the big games.

GMS Should have started on Saturday with Mcginn on the other wing, also have Rooney partnering May upfront

I would also like to play that way but the defence (barring McKenna) is as soft as a baby's first sh1te. They need protection in front of them.

I wouldn't play Rooney with May either, save him for last 30 mins depending on the game. Just give Christie a free role as a second striker around #83.

Agree on Rooney. He's lost whatever speed/mobility he ever had so even more so now he is just a six yard box player so unless we are going to be putting lots of balls into the box he contributes very little.

I don't agree with it but pretty sure he played Rooney on Saturday for his defensive height. His cautiousness means he likes to have a certain number of taller players to defend corners and free kicks and without Considine he shoehorned Rooney in for his height.

I don't remember Rooney ever being mobile out with the penalty area. He is also quite ****e in the air with regards to long balls. He's forever played to his weaknesses by Mcinnes.

I do have one memory of him running away from the StJ defense in the Tynecastle semi to score either the third or fourth goal not long after he joined us but maybe they were even slower than him.

I still find it hard to believe John Hughes won the Scottish Cup.

He must have been wearing his lucky shoes.

I was working in Milnes house a few years back, he came in and we were yapping away about the football and he asked me what I thought of Mcghee who was manager at the time, I said I didnt really have much time for him, to which he replied that he had tried to get John Hughes but he had opted instead to go to Hibs, be carefull what we wish for eh.

Aye it’s a problem.

How’s that guy who was managing in Norwegian football getting on?

Do you mean Graham Potter?
It’s Sweden that Ostersund play in, They just beat Arsenal at the Emirates but knocked oute of the Europa League and I think their season is yet to start.
