Scottish Premier League

[King Gizzard]

Starts tommorow, but why is it so early?

[Locke.]

Because the great Hearts are going to set up a historic season by destroying Rangers

[joeysteele]

I'm hoping for different results this season.

[King Gizzard]

I think it'd be better if they had the same tier system and rules as the EPL, but I don't know if it'd work cause I havn't followed SPL ever that closely apart from the Old Firm Derbies

[michael21]

The SPL announced on Monday that the 2011-12 campaign would open earlier than is customary in a bid to help teams involved in qualifying for European competition. The league also wants to avoid the prospect of midweek fixtures throughout winter

yeepee i the only that new that :dance:

[King Gizzard]

Celtic have got to play in some friendly tournament soon as well :joker:

[Novo]

Yeah Celtic have a pretty few friendly's to play still, they have the Dublin super cup which is 3 games already. We only have one more friendly to come and that's against Chelsea.

[Novo]

Can't believe we play Hearts in just under 7 hours

A display that will be the same for at least another 2 years.

It is Hearts time to rule

I love Butcher

[King Gizzard]

Born in some random country but he grew up in my town

[King Gizzard]

He went to my school as well didn't know that

[Novo]

The famous picture everyone always associates him with

[King Gizzard]

Wonder what tricks and flicks this guy has up his sleeve for hearts

[Novo]

Don't think we'll get Cuellar now we are after 2 new defenders who have been rumoured pretty recently and by the sounds of it Ally has half gave up on him

[King Gizzard]

Hope he signs a new contract then but someone else will come in with 2m for him

He is our best defender but McLeish doesnt seem to like him :conf:

[Novo]

He's still injured at the minute isn't he? read something about if we signed him in the week he wouldn't have been able to play today

[King Gizzard]

He had knee surgery so he won't be playing for a while

[King Gizzard]

[Novo]

Cuellar and Bougherra at center back would better then most EPL partnerships.. Bougherra and Weir are a pretty decent team and Cuellar is twice the player Weir is

[King Gizzard]

Oh dear..

[Novo]

I'll take 1-1 after the way we played in the first half

[King Gizzard]

What were boo's at at the end

Performance/manager or ref decisions?

[Novo]

Probably the performance

[Novo]

Need Hibs to get something from Celtic tomorrow now don't want them starting on the front foot

[King Gizzard]

Was there a Carlos sighting?

[Novo]

Didn't see him

[InOne]

[Crimson Dynamo]

malmo fans sang for 90 minutes last night they were brilliant

[InOne]

Starts tommorow, but why is it so early?

Someone told me today it's cos the weather gets so bad up there and lots of games have to be cancelled, dunno if it's true though

[seanraff07]

Yeah to try and avoid as many midweek games.

So what do we go and do, announce a friendly against Sunderland due to be played tomorrow then move our league game at home to St.Johnstone to a Tuesday night. Nice one, Hibs.

[King Gizzard]

Think I might be a Hibs fan now

[King Gizzard]

Did Isaiah Vieira Osbourne play today?

[seanraff07]

Did Isaiah Vieira Osbourne play today?

Yeah came on at half-time, looked good. I think he deserves to start next week as he's better than most other options we have in the middle of the park. He's a big lad should win most midfield battles with him.

[Legend killer]

Snm celtic

[Novo]

Snm celtic

who?

[Locke.]

Good win for Hearts yesterday they are getting ready to launch their title challenge after a slow start

All this without the injured Obua aswell

[Legend killer]

Nakumuria (sp) greatest ever player in the SPL along with Larsson of course

[seanraff07]

Nakumuria (sp) greatest ever player in the SPL along with Larsson of course

He could hit free-kicks, not much else, highly over-rated.

[Novo]

Don't be so silly the greatest 3 players to ever play in the SPL 1998+ ( Much better ones before the SPL was formed ) are

1) Giovanni van Bronckhorst
2) Andrei Kanchelskis
3) Ronald de Boer

[seanraff07]

Franck Sauzee is

[Novo]

If we are talking about all time then there can only be one
