I don't know about Jimmy Melia's white shoes. I know that they're the only league team with four words in their name. Possibly. I haven't bothered to check this fact.

Queen of the South?

Bugger. I'm revising my criteria to English League!

Jota definitely out. He's had surgery on a hernia he's had for a year.

Any indication how long he's out for?

Yeah, life's too short to be hating Brighton.

It's already pretty much a full-time job finding the time to hate Blose, Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal, Millwall, Luton, Leeds, Liverpool, Man United, "Rangers", Queen's Park, Real Madrid, Lazio, Zenit St Petersburg and Beitar Jerusalem.

And that's only the teams I really hate, not the ones I dislike quite a lot.

I did chuckle knowing your posts on here when I was reading a season preview for Scotland and one of the league one clubs fans put Clyde as their most disliked club due to signing David Goodwillie and also having some other player in their squad who had a brush with the law....

Everybody hates Clyde! To be honest I wasn't keen on us signing Goodwillie. I suppose everybody deserves a second chance but it still doesn't sit right. On the other hand we could be in the Lowland League rather than League One if not for his goals. I didn't want Villa to sign Terry either, nobody every listens to my views, it's like Brexit all over again!

Looking forward to this game, we are a team that should be full of confidence at the moment following the stuffing of the canaries and the likes of wee John and Tyrone having exceptional international performances.

After beating Spurs 3-0, they will be full of confidence too so I hope we get on the front foot from the off and dominate them.

The rags health insurance policy wouldn't cover it.

Smith said he would be out for a couple of weeks in his pre match press conference.

Despite the Goodwille factor, your maniacal support of Clyde is swaying me from Cowdenbeath. On the other hand I may be just a glory hunter.
