Only way he could've missed that was with his eyes closed. Strachan got sent off for being a mad wee raj.

Such a frustrating match... I just don't get how a team can perform so well for one half then practically no-show the second. The first half was great though... players flying into challenges, Seve bossing midfield, Brewster proving a lot of dipshits wrong with a very good shift up-front, and then the second... Jesus Christ. In stark contrast to the first half, our midfielders looked shit-scared to make a challenge. Karim Touzani looked god fucking awful too, although I'll give him the benefit of the doubt this time because he's probably not as fit as the other lads.
Also Mackie... why the hell does Jimmy keep playing this jester? Alright, so he's nippy and he makes a nuisance of himself, but how the hell did he not manage to get on the end of that cross? Any other one of our forwards would have buried the header and probably won us the game.
Still, we can at least take heart from the first half performance and know that there's a good team in the making. All it's going to take is a little bit of tinkering up front and in the middle and we're sorted I reckon.
Oh, and the Toon drew with Villa. Not a great weekend for me
