You heard it here first!

Smart Arse!!

 Moscow seems a long time ago but that was definitely the beginning of the end and now, after yesterdays events, I think we can conclude that it was MON who made the decision to forego the Europa Cup,



Tony
Despite the team selection that day, I think you will agree what a great trip it was.

Psssst DC5, hope you didn't buy an ironing board or cover.

Now, about my back...

That bad back obviously suits you Chris.  You have been on fine form today.

Absolutely, one of the best.

My only surprise with MON is that it was 12 months later than the first indication that all was not well.

Has your ITK mentioned any Managerial preferences?

Afraid not. I just hope that Kevin MacDonald gets a fair crack of the whip. In the circumstances, with players supposedly leaving and us having to rely on the depth of the squad, there could not be a better candidate.

Yes, K Mac (his hip-hop name no doubt) represents continuity for a lot of players (especially the youngsters who will feel more at ease with a familiar face at the helm). Plus he's a proper coach and I didn't get that impression from Robertson and Walford.

Kevin Mac's Claret and Blue Army has a nice ring to it. I'd be happy enough to go with that for a wee while at least.

K Mac would be my second choice after Pellegrini.

If the financial and operational situation has changed so that the role to be filled is coach rather than a traditional football manager, then K Mac is perhaps the best choice of all.

I'm going to listen to him closely, as soon as he's out of that meeting i'm going to ask him how to ease my bad back.

>chuckle<

Oi Mrs Clark Five, it's the Doc I want to see not the receptionist!

I sneezed yesterday and knackered my back, are you able to prescribe painkillers? If not, i'll wait until the (frankly, long) meeting is finished if you can fix me up an appointment?


Somebody call for a Doctor? ......mmmmm....what seems to be the trouble ?

Bad back ??     there is allsorts of new fangled ways to "cure" a bad back but I find that leeches the best ! apply one to each ear and genitals.

please please don't thank me.

The best thing for a bad back is a series of jarring impacts, overly ambitious physical endeavour and long periods of awkward posture.

This could work but I am sure that the application of leeches is the way forward.

Chris, to speed up the healing process I find that applying more leeches to be of help.

Thanks Doc, is it really necessary to start on the testicles?

I do trust you but the last 'Dr' I consulted warned me off bitches and hoes but little else. Dr Dre is not a real Doctor I suspect.

Following on from Chris, Doc, can I ask are you a real doctor? You know like the ones who write perscriptions, charge you to sign your passports and play 4 rounds of golf a week, or are you just one of them geezers who knows loads and loads about rocks and shit.

Feel free to tell me to fuck off like.

UTV, Lee.
