Here's my take on it good and bad: The woman asking the questions was horrific The sound quality was hit and miss, with one minute loud and clear and the next no audio at all Robinson's opinion on the best player he ever played against was Steven Gerrard Kept referring to "the football club" as a top six club......needs to re-think that part Now for the better parts in my opinion: Honoured to be manager. Praised the fan base and the facilities at AFC Preferred formation 4-3-3 but only if he has the players to play it, otherwise happy to be flexible. Not adverse to playing youngsters but only if good enough. If he has a 25 yr old and a 18 year old both playing same position and the 25 year old is the better player then he plays. Keen to work on set pieces and may look to add someone for that to the coaching staff. He has the final day on signings but obviously others do the leg work in identifying. Anticipates a lot of movement in the squad over the summer. Absolutely hates VAR with a passion and says it ruins the game for fans in particular. I actually quite took to him and am potentially a bit more comfortable with him BUT talk is cheap and he knows he has to deliver

I think that would be a result acceptable to everyone.

Dundee United look like they're doing a lot of research into whether their signings are a good culture fit for them, hence signing someone who looks like he already lives in a caravan.

Possible - I personally know very little about Scottish football. But Peter Leven was the one the agent meant. No idea what the players think of the Robinson guy but I can ask next time we speak.

Fitba tournaments should be decided on the field, not in the courts. The fair thing to do would be to replay the final.

It is frowned upon to drive in either but whats life without whimsy?

Good idea. It's my wife's car, so it's her that they'll go after. I'm contemplating going full gaslight and asking her how she doesn't remember the day out she had in Dunfermline only a week ago. Maybe hide some of her things and remind her about the great time we had at various events we never attended.

But but but......it's the best league in the world

I'm still expecting him to be fired before Christmas.

Absolutely. I try to think of this at a human level first of all, but the financial implications of 'man's' obsession with constantly prolonging life (for the benefit of the receiver or not) are huge and simply cannot be supported. Especially given, as you point out, the dropping fertility rate that will further contribute to a shift in age demographics with more pensioners to support. And as people live longer (either naturally through medical advances, or artificially through machines) there simply won't be enough in the pot to support social services - so we get to that survival based on wealth (which you could easily argue we already have - but that gap will just widen). What's the answer when, through medical advances, we all live to 150 (compos mentis or not). Make us work to 120 to keep the pot topped up. Fuck that. I would rather be dead at 80 than work for 100 years. Now, I am not suggesting we take a Logan's Run approach and vapourise people at a set age. But bodies have a natural shelf life. When that is reached, let it be, and let us slip away in comfort when there is no more quality of life. Keep the population balance at a more sustainable level, and allow people to fully enjoy the finite time we have on this planet whilst accepting it is not forever. And when we are proper fucked got absolutely no life to look forward to, why is it that can we decide a dog or a cat will have no quality of life, therefore it is better for them if they are 'put out of their misery', but we can't do this for a person - instead we need to keep them going for our own selfish wants. It's just wrong. There is no humanity in that. "I'll make you suffer in pain or in a vegetative state because it would be really sad if you weren't around any more and I' not ready to say goodbye" (slightly over simplifying things, but you get the gist). Our bodies, our choice. And I am genuinely sorry if I offend anyone with my belief that we should be allowed to die our own way. I have seen a lot of unnecessary suffering and can see no good in blocking assisted dying.

Any news on whether he's a chipper or a chippy man, or if he's a rowie or buttery man?

That’s just cos of his accent though. Even when they’re being nice they sound angry. But like Germans.

Yes, this is referring to Leven. Left some dull parts of the larger context out and didnt realise it became a bit vague. We did not talk about the latest beyond "they brought in a new one now, maybe things get better."

This is the concerning bit, which is why the club's strategy needs to set the targets. A 25 year old might be a better player, but an 18-20 year old might have the potential to be significantly better than the 25 year old if given the freedom to develop. It's the easy option to go out and buy a new right sided defender, rather than get Jack Milne to be the player we should know he can be, for example. The 25 year old he speaks of, won't be a player that's already in the squad and has patiently waited their time to play first team football, it'll be a player that we've only just signed to replace the need to develop the young player already available in that role.

Or relegate Hearts?

MSPs vote against the Assisted Dying Bill I personally believe things like this should be decided by a referendum and not by at shower of shyte in Parliament. The result may have been the same or worse, but shouldn't be decided by politicians. I know it's an emotive subject, but I do believe you shouldn't be allowed a vote on the matter if you believe death by suffering is Gods* will. I remember someone said that to me whilst I watched my mother dying. I am not a violent person, but I really wanted to kill that woman that day. *For the benefit of doubt, the god in question is the fake one who supposedly bides in the heavens above us and not the real one, who wore a number 6 AFC jersey with such aplomb.

Nothing surprises me about AFCON. This is bonkers isn’t it?

I got fines each way in the Tyne Tunnel last July - that is very well signposted but me & my daughter so busy talking didn't notice

This is all on me it has to be. There is no other logical explanation. Was down with my Sunderland supporting mate at their game on Saturday and they lost only their second home game of the season to Brighton. Further evidence that it is me. Oh and San Jose lost 0-1 last night.

Why would Dave Cormack be to blame for @Jute dragging every team he supports down to a level worse than they could ever possibly be?
