I'm not a fan of international football, struggle to maintain an interest but in saying that I have enjoyed watching Scotland since Strachan took over but that game against Georgia was shite, like being back in bad old Vogts / Burley years.
Have a feeling we'll sneak a draw tonight, as we usually step up against the bigger teams but if we play like the other night then we'll get pumped.

Pretty poor stuff again in all honesty. All will depend on the Poland game next month which is now a must win.

That result was very flattering to us, Germany were playing at a pedestrian pace for most of the match and still looked like they could score whenever. Thomas Muller is an exceptionally good footballer. Hutton, Mulgrew and Forrest are all fucking murder, we aren't going to get anywhere with those 3 in the starting 11.

I didn't watch it, listened to it on the radio though, even just listening to it it was obvious that the Germans were strolling it. Summed it up for me when with 10 minutes to go he brings on thon Martin and Ritchie - two English duds. Why no actually give a couple of Scottish lads a game? Seriously trying to tell me the thumb and Armstrong for example have any less ability than those two? Fucking ram it Strachan.

Paul Quinn eh?
Really enjoyed that game, last 20 minutes especially. Both times were all over the place at times but that just made it more exciting.

There's nothing quite like beating the Paisley spoon-burners, especially with a 92nd minute winner.
It was a really poor first half which rightly saw St Mirren tow goals up but the second half was as well as we've played all season. Baird a standout again and it's good to finally see him getting some goals as a reward for all his hard work.
It's great to see Aberdeen sitting atop the table if only for a few weeks.
McNamara must be dangling by a thread after today's performance.

From what I've read Lee Miller coming on changed the game? |

He never lost a header against Webster and linked up really well with Bairdy, who struggled on his own in the first half. |

What a fucking result today, every single man in a red shirt gave everything for the win. Celtic had more of the ball but they played horrible football. Aimless punts towards Griffiths which were mopped up by the magnificent Taylor and Quinn. Felt we were the better team and unlucky to be behind at the break. Graeme Shinnie is the best signing any Scottish team will make this season, brilliant player who ran the show in the midfield today. Consi was maybe a bit lucky not to get sent off for the pen, if it was Collum he'd have been gone without a doubt. Thomson was shocking today, never ever a red card for Hayes. We should definitely be appealing that. Gave them a free kick for Shinnie breathing on Biton which lead to their pen. Absolutely blatant handball from the child neglecter never given either at the start of the second half also. How on earth McLean missed that header at the end of the first half I have no idea. Consi had one at the back post first half as well. What a fucking bounce at the goal, my season ticket is right next to the away end and the looks on the mink's faces was priceless. The Celtic fans classless as ever in their abuse of Logan, him blowing a kiss to the fans and kissing the badge when he won a free kick in the corner when we were 2-1 up was quality. Heart in the mouth when Quinn almost gifted them the equaliser 2 minutes after scoring, thank fuck Consi busted a gut to make it to the line to clear. Great atmosphere today too, best I can remember in a long time at Pittodrie. Probably the best since the Euro run where we beat Copenhagen and drew with Bayern. Absolutely no reason this team can't win the league, call me delusional if you want but if we can maintain the form we showed last season against the rest of the league and take more points off Celtic we'll be there or thereabouts.

I wasn't there but from what I've read it was a cross into the box and he brought it down and scored. He came on as a sub last week and changed the game positively for a change, his cross-field pass led to our winner last week. Early days but he's done quite well three weeks in a row now. Can't imagine that Miller has much pace these days but he should work well with Baird if today's anything to go by then. Baird should be looking at getting at least 10-15 goals this season imo as he's a solid striker for that level. |

As pish as we were, we still still should have won that game on Saturday, some of the chances we missed were unreal. McKay looks a right good wee player. Jackie can still get tae though.

Wasn't the best game last night, could tell the team were still feeling the effects of Saturday's efforts. Controlled the first half but ran out of steam after about an hour and were hanging on by the end. Should have put the game to bed though and could have been punished for not doing so. Got the three points though and that's all that matters in the end. Hopefully Taylor's head knock isn't too bad (had to go off leaving us down to 10 men for the last 10 minutes) as he's by far our best defender, absolute machine.

Hearts successfully put back in their box in a very satisfying win. Absolutely ruined my shin at the second goal but totally worth it.
Graeme Shinnie is the best player in the league and when he's in the mood McGinn is absolutely unplayable.

The Dandies look the real deal, good to see Goodie bagging a couple yesterday.
We on the other hand stumble around like a pub team. Bodul looks a good player though.
