    Fans of the Loch Ness Drogba, no doubt. It's brilliant that the press are suddenly starting to take a real interest in us again. I've seen a few articles mentioning Loch Ness Drogba and Winiesta.

    Just feels like everything is coming together at last, both on and off the pitch. OaU

    Just as there has to be ravens at the Tower of London ...

    ... there should always be one Scottish player in our team.

    The people on the coach are trying out their 'Geordie accents' ...

    Was it definitely concussion though? I know they made a concussion sub, but if he's not actually got it then he can play (I think)

    Probably sensible he doesn't, which is a shame because he was MOTM for me on Sat

    It's even better when that Scottish player is a real find. Great bit of business imo.

    You're right, traditionally we've always had Scots in our team - Doig, Mulhall, Baxter, Malone, Hughes, Kerr, Porterfield, Johnston come immediately to mind! McGeady is a Jock in every sense of the word - he just chose to play for Ireland.

    I'd guess it might have been Di Fanti's reign of terror when he filled the squad up from durge from abroad

    The Cheltenham coach arrives at the SOL at 6.15pm. I'll call and see what's what, probably go to the Wheatsheaf for a change ...

    .... it's where the coach driver has told the Cheltenham supporters to go.
