Gordon Strachan for the Scotland managers job. Pretty pleased with this, mainly for his interviews. Our World Cup chance has gone so hopefully he just concentrates on getting some continuity into the squad.
Mon wee Gordie!

Strachan should be alright. Not sure we'll qualify for anything (the current crop of players is rather piss poor on the whole, which isn't really anyones fault) but we shouldn't be too bad.

I would argue that at this moment Scotland are capable of fielding quite a strong First XI.
Whether they have anything to back that up on the bench is another matter.

I agree.
Everytime I complain, it's because of poor officiating and if you look into what I'm saying you'll agree with me. The Ba "dive", atrocious. The Ba "offside", atrocious. And Man Utd fans had the audacity to label Atkinson as biased for Chelsea. Luckily, I'm not bothered about the League Cup.
And after watching a Sepp Blatter interview earlier, I must ask: Am I the only one disgusted by his earlobes?

We had a bit of a mini renaissance a couple of years ago when Kenny Miller and James McFadden were in amongst the goals in important qualifiers and Barry Ferguson even made the most adamant Rangers hating fans accept that he was a great player for us. Since those 3 stopped appearing, you can see a link to our dwindling fortunes.
Levein was a bit unfortunate as he had more of a long-term view which many people had been crying out for, but the short-term results were pretty poor. I like that Strachan said that Scotland is famous for the Tartan Army, but the team need to give the fans something to really shout about.
Kinda sad to hear about Man City's Michael Johnson. I do remember a Match of the Day where they highlighted his performance and I thought he looked decent, there just doesn't seem to be any way back for him despite him only being 24.

He was unlucky with injury but he likes the drink too much.
I have no sympathy. He would have been in my year at school and he is a multi millionaire. He's made well over £8 million in the last 4 years, despite having played only 11 games (7 on loan in the Chamipionship) and having spent the rest of the time sat on his fat arse drinking and eating pasties.

Didn't realise he'd made that much to be honest. My sympathies are dwindling.
Apparently Johnson is mentally ill or something, so some sympathy restored. Still, I'm sure he's set for life financially.
Meanwhile, Loic Remy isn't a mug. He'll go there, be on £80 grand a week, safe in the knowledge that he will either stay there for a few years, or they'll go down and someone else will buy him and have to pay him close to that.

Oh Suarez and Rodgers, never change!
Blatantly and comedically diving against Stoke - no punishment. Several months later, Suarez admits its a dive, time to be punished! Brilliant.

In the wacky world of English football, Saints just sacked Adkins in favour of a younger Spanish league version of Mark Hughes who was only recently sacked himself.
The stakes are really high this season for the relegation battle. The new tv deal kicks in next season where the bottom club will earn more than the champion last season. Guess Saint's don't want to regret missing out on the jackpot due to having faith with a manager without much top flight experience.... and promptly appointed one without experience in the English top flight.
One of the most weird sacking besides Venky's sacking of Allardyce.
