There is a whole world of AI which have agentic capabilities and AGI features beyond bots which use LLM to answer questions. The march to ASI is onward and SkyNet is around the corner, if we have enough energy. Doomed we are! Anyway, any transfer news?

Distracted

“Spy, spy, wherever you may be, but he only hid from behind a tree, and it could be worse, you cheating skates are thieves who like to rob from the charities”

They should have played him in goal or centre defence - couldn't be any worse than the shower of shite they had there

Clarke probably developed his favourites for the striker role while Ross was not in the squad and wasn't brave enough to upset them by picking Stewart ahead of them. He maybe should have given him at least 30 minutes against Haiti and Morocco to see what he brought to the side. They weren't exactly potent up front though admittedly didn't create much for their strikers.

Luck of the draw in tournament (and cup) football. I’m sure the semi finals will have the nations that deserve to be there.

I think LND would definitely have got a goal or two for Scotland had they played him

Everyone at that level is, weird with coaches, had more than National Express. I've been doing a lot of research into injuries in young athletes, mainly for selfish reason as my son is very sporty playing football, futsal and competing in teen Crossfit so keeping an eye on it. A lot of it seems to relate back to a lack of strength and conditioning work at a younger age, not strengthening the tendons and ligaments pre growth spurts, not doing mobility and stability work which comes out when they get older due to over use issues playing one sport repeatedly without building the physical foundations to handle it so when they build strength and power as young adults they are too powerful for their tendons and ligaments to handle. Perhaps explains why so many talented young footballers never kick on and get repeated injuries too.

My take on it is the club were happy to have him for one more year because we didn't get promoted, the implication being that we wouldn't have exercised the contract extension has we been promoted. Ergo, now getting him to sign anything longer than a one year contract would somewhat contradict that stance... That said, if we were to offer him a 2 - 3 year contract and were confident we could get our money back by selling him next summer, if we were to be promoted, then nothing to lose I guess...

to be fair, other than maybe Che (different attributes imo), he's better than any of their other options up top. Madness he doesn't get selected / played more.

Still every chance he signs with Saints. Just because he lawyered his way out of a one-year deal on the same money he got last year doesn't mean he wouldn't sign a longer deal for the same money. He'd be a safer bet for the club than bringing in an unknown who could be anything from Larin to Downs. And we know the club wanted to sign him up using the clause, so the club doesn't actively want rid of him.

Luckily the first game is against Watford, their fans are more bothered with the state of their own club than us. Portsmouth will try to give it out no doubt but we have plenty to hit them back with. Stealing from charities to name one example.

How many touches did he get in those 6 minutes?

St Mirren, Partick Thistle, Kilmarnock await.

Exactly. Weirdly had she never won the US Open, people would be far more positive about her. Agree, she needs to find a good coach and stick with him/her though. No idea how preventable any of her injuries are, so can't really hold that against her.

You hope he's injured?

No probably not. Two good'ish sides of which one will be prematurely eliminated whilst sides with very little about them, like Canada, are in the last 16.

Has anyone been able to buy memberships yet? I tried today and I get stuck on a page with nothing to click. Scratch that, the membership page still refers to last season!😑

Out of contract and at a World Cup. Managed 6 minutes as an 89th minute sub in the 0-1 loss to Morocco, playing as a striker for a team whos only goal was a deflection against Haiti, and didn't make it out of the group in a WC where 3 of the 4 teams will. Not really the promotional experience he might have been hoping for... shame it ended like this.

Currently 33rd best player in the world. Best in UK. No doubt disappointing since US but still superb sportswoman

Queens Club final 2 weeks ago. Played well. Something's massively amiss with her. Sacks coaches all the time and always has an injury.

Did she not get into a final recently? Quick check: Transylvanian Open. A WTA 250 event.

That would have been a wood pigeon, a magpie and a squirrel walk into a bar. They're all knocked unconscious, trying to walk straight through the glass in the door.

"Petard" translates to firecracker in French. Also a slang for a fat ass. A fart is more like "Prout" in French, which may also sound like a Petard if you had a bean and cheese burritos for lunch.

Only a fool would do a thing like that. Now we’re stinking the place out.
