    You're right, it was Blackburn that Eustace kept up, not Plymouth. I wasn't aware that Hull's owners had targeted a top 10 finish, that makes the sacking all the more bizarre given he achieved 7th. I agree, he'll easily pick up another Championship job. I've seen him in interviews and also previously doing punditry and he speaks very well, an intelligent and articulate guy. I have a feeling it might end up being a case of Hull's loss being another club's gain.

    Shankland contract extension ( merged )

    I think you're right. Whatever we put in front of him, his agent is going to tell him to reject/ wait until after the Euros. I don't like it, it sucks and I hate modern football but, the benefit of the summer is that Naismith can make the changes he wants to make. He doesn't have to settle on a January window where we get in who we can rather than who we want. I really, really wanted Shanks to stay and become a club legend, but if he's got a chance to go and earn megabucks then he's earned it. Hopefully the club keep a keen eye on his career at whereever he goes next and are ready to swoop in if the opportunity arises.

    **The NFL Thread**

    Rashee Rice doing his best to destroy what was a promising start to his career. As if he wasn’t facing a long enough suspension for the RTC he was involved in, now allegedly assaulted a photographer in a Dallas nightclub.
  5. To answer the original question. I've got something. Those posters which say they voted for independence but won't now because of a few years of bad decisions. That's way more shit than the Labour Party. Laughably shit. 😅😅😅

    Ian Cathro - The Athletic

    Spot on. Cathro's appointment was a strategic failure. We were going outside of the pre-approved Scottish football managerial merrygoround so any appointment had to be set up for success and needed a structure built up which could support the Cathro in the most meaningful way. In hindsight: - Levein takes the team after Neilson leaves from Dec 16 with Cathro joining as his assistant for the duration of the season. This allows Cathro to build experience and confidence working with the group of players he is to inherit - To support Cathro, he gets an experienced assistant - Look at the value Frankie McAvoy has brought to Naismiths coaching team. Someone like that to support Cathro alongside an ex-pro who could better relate to the players (sort of a Gary Locke type) - January window, Esmael still comes in, but the team isn't ripped up in the same manner. - Cathro gets the summer to work with his new team and the players to implement his style of play I'll be honest, I don't know why Austin MacPhee was his number 2. It was like weird and weirder. I think for Cathro to have been a success, he needed someone that contrasted with him, instead of being another version of himself. It was a bad appointment, there's no getting away from that. He was too young, and didn't have the appropriate experience which would command the dressing room. Had he been an ex-pro whose career was ruined in his late 20s and was an incredible coach then (think Ryan Mason type), it might have been easier, but I think players would have struggled to respect him. Regardless of his experience. The structure around him had to be perfect, and he needed to be carefully managed/ mentored from Leveins POV because of the inexperience, since obviously giving him too much rope ended up hanging him in the end. He shouldn't have been allowed to rip up the team, he shouldn't have been allowed to pick his team in the manner he did. I think Levein gave him too much freedom.

    U.S. Politics megathread (merged)

    Yes. There has been discussion on JKB over the years about the possibility of Trump ever going to jail. I have held fast to the opinion that he will never serve time behind bars. However, I think that he might well do time after all, but it will be because he can't keep his trap shut and a judge will give him 24 hours in the slammer for contempt of court. He'll like that, of course, because it will fit in well with his "poor me" victim persona.
  10. Those 2 have been part of a hibs team that have given me some of my best moments as a Hearts fan. I salute their ineptitude!
  11. Good to see the thread back on track after the weird interlude where Hearts fans were wishing them well . They could always get jobs in the rat infested kitchens

    Humour

    I've come across a couple of boys who liked to tell a Kiddie joke. One who told me they were only jokes which to me were not funny but just brutal. Couldn't handle me slagging him off for being a paedo trying to connect. I told him it was only a joke but he was adamant he wanted to fight me. 😄 Anyway I'm just wary of his type.

    Success next season

    For me, next season, I'd take 3rd in league Beat Hibs 3 times Win 3 group stage European games Get to a cup final. To me that would be a successful season, especially if we win that cup final.

    Gilbert Gottfried is far braver than I am: Totally and absolutely NSFW - you have been warned No doubt I'll end up on Ked's list, but there's an entire documentary about comedians and this in-joke named after the joke itself. It's pretty much one answer to Jim's opening question.

    Tornado footage

    Currently under a tornado warning (we think a tornado likely came within a couple of miles of us). So hooray for basements. Edit: yeah… https://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/2024/05/07/tornado-confirmed-in-michigan/73605562007/ Friends who live about half a mile away reporting their roof was ripped off.
