I returned from my holiday a much wiser man. The trouble with taking two weeks off is that you’ve barely started your tan, only found a fraction of the local hotspots and the local women haven’t had time to fully appreciate your foreign charms. After three weeks your skin is peeling, you’re...

Well, that was a brilliant game. Aberdeen have improved in all the key areas over the last six months, and if they are to challenge Celtic then taking points off them is crucial. Getting 0/12 last season killed off any possible title challenge, so the game today was a key marker. Even at 1-0...

Until more comes out we'll never know. The trust made it clear in the summer that they weren't interested in sponsoring the youth setup or other smaller projects around the club, they wanted to buy shares. When that door closed they were pretty clear about securing Plainmoor as their only goal...

No idea to be honest. You'd hope we aren't in trouble within the first month of the season beginning, but maybe these lawsuits are potentially damaging. If unfair dismissal claims are upheld then we only have ourselves to blame, the clue is in the title really. No-one knows who they are or if...

Most Slovakia matches are pretty dull to watch to be fair. They try and set-up to keep clean sheets and counter when they can. When all are fit they have a pretty good counter attacking midfield with Stoch, Kucka, Hamsik and Weiss - so it's effective, just not pleasing on the eye. A lack of an...

Not sure what to make of this yet, as it's the first we've heard of any of it, but right now it looks pretty bad. If we've been found guilty of unfair dismissal then there is no-one else to blame. We're currently paying Chris Hargreaves and Lee Hodges not to manage and coach the side, and are...

I was checking that last night, more out of pessimism than anything else, and that is a pretty big safety net. After 7 games the top 3 had 18, 18, 15 points, and the bottom three had 4 each. I think all three teams could secure their places in the next round of games.

Technically it's 202km from where it's at, which is Zilina. A draw was a great result for Slovakia though. One win from the last two against Belarus or Liechtenstein and they're through. Ukraine have to get something against Spain too even if that happened.
