Sadly for me he is never worthy of a starting slot and is only an off the bench player. If he's happy to be that then aye fine but other than his blistering pace for me he offers very little.

This is 100% what the club should be trying to do.Originally posted by swaddon2 View Post
He was not at his best when he arrived but we can all see the vast improvement in his overall approach to everything
A fully fit and game sharp Kevin Nisbet (note alsi the correct spelling)
Will go on to prove to be a fantastic permanent signing for the dons if we can make it happen.
Hope we are doing everything we can to do this

I'm reading that the spfl are looking to cut the size of the top division to ten clubs.
It could be an April fool, though. Hopefully the two clubs who are getting the dunt will be the huns and their pals across town.Comment

Reduce it to two and have a 20 club chapionship.Originally posted by swaddon2 View Post
Has to be an April fool, surely.Comment

There's a few media outlets running the story, so it may be legitimate. Apparently, "fixture congestion" is the driving force behind it. There are also plans under consideration for a 14 or 16 team top flight.
The fact they "need" four Old Firm games per season for the telly rules out a 14 or 16 team setup.Comment

I dont know if I could watch a 10 team league again.Comment

A 10 league team to reduce games to aid the cheeks in Europe?
Seems to me there’s an obvious answer here.
Just have the bigots set up their own two team league and play each other fan their nae fatigued.
There you go Doncaster, my consultancy fee is in the post.Comment

Whatever format the league is, it will still be utter shiite.Comment

The one and only reason that the league isn't expanded is to facilitate the gruesome twosome playing at least 4 times a season. Funny how that wasn't an issue for several years when Rangers died and Sevco finally came up to the premiership.
Why don't we write off the new year fixture between the 2 as a league event and have them contest the shiny Glasgow Derby New Year Cup with baubles and ribbons etc. with the winner picking up all gate receipts, TV money and whatever else can be thrown their way? That's 1 of the 2 redundant fixtures sorted.
And for the remaining one they can arrange a fixture between themselves anywhere in the world, with a few days break before and after guaranteed, and again the winner gets all the money from it. This can be decided after the league fixtures are out and before the end of Sept to allow the other clubs to plan for it and all the fans time to arrange travel.
There you go, a guaranteed 4 Septic Vs Sevco fixtures a season. They get to add to their trophies and bring their bile across the globe until countries ban them due to their fans.
That gives the rest of the us what we're after which is a 16/18 team league playing those 2 only twice a year.Comment

I watched 18-team league fitba from 1966 to 1975. Everything was decided (2 clubs challenging for the title, another 3 looking at European places, and 4 scrapping against relegation, by March. I watched some frocking awful mid-table, sod-all-at-stake dreck from March to May most seasons. If that?s on the table, I?m eating elsewhere.Originally posted by Mason89 View PostComment

That?s was in a time though when other teams thought they might have a chance of doing something. 10, 20, 40 team league, theres only one side winning it now.Originally posted by 57vintage View Post
I have zero expectation levels and just quite fancy getting drunk in other parts of the country for a changeComment

It was exactly the same duopoly with the odd cup win (us 1970, Dunfermline 1968) and two league challenges from us in 70-71 and the following season. When I heard that Killie had won the 64-65 title, I was surprised, especially since I witnessed them get a 4-0 doing from us on the last day of 1966).Originally posted by Mason89 View Post
Two relegated, one of whom was usually one of the clubs newly promoted, with one or two others on the fringes of the drop (us in 68-69). It was vucking scheidt, believe me.
The first time we qualified for Europe was only due to the Tims having won the European Cup even though we finished 4th (and Clyde were gerry-mandered out of a Fairs Cup place).
There?s too much of a gap between the coalition of cuountery and the rest of us, but it was always thus in my 61 years of supporting a club that at least did have a short period of joy 40 years ago. Fornicating about with numbers will have little effect. As Bamber said in the Young Ones? University Challenge episode, ?Oh, the rich kids ALWAYS win?.Comment

Doesn't mean it can't work now. Was it really as bad as watching a shyte Motherwell/Livi/Hearts team up here twice a season kicking anything other than the ball.Originally posted by 57vintage View Post
Would only have four games against the cheeks, which is better than the current eight, if we finish top six.
Make it interesting and relegate four teams a season. With so little between clubs, you could see some interesting developments.
Not a cat in hells chance we would ever see a league with less cheek games.Comment

See post 163. Believe me, it was verkin dire once everything had been settled around March, unless we were still in the Scottish Cup. The bruteball to which you refer has an antidote in scoring early against the ****s, drawing them out, and giving them a sound spanking, admittedly something with which we have struggled. However, the bland, dull, boring, tedious fitba which we had to watch when ferkall was at stake for both participants, bearing in mind that we’d had two credible championship runs in 70-71 (probably my favourite-ever squad) and 71-72) was the worst period I have been party to since 1966.Comment
