Thread About Ex-Players

The Shankland we had, in comparison to the one who scores 20 - 30 a season in the Premiership, clearly not the same person. It must have been his fatter and less interested twin.

Shankland looked back to being overweight and finished last season too. He looks in slimmer condition now.

Thought the same. Think that’s partly why he found himself out of the Scotland squad.

Baller League returns tonight. Not on Sky Sports this year but available on YouTube I believe and big JET will be playing for M7 FC and Kazaiah Stirling playing for SDS FC.

Few other recognisable names involved too... Calum Butcher, Ciaran Clark, Henri Lansbury, Alex Dyer, Joleon Lescott, Martyn Waghorn, Nile Ranger, Brandon Barker

I wonder if he'll be considered for any other managers in our league? He was one I always thought would be a good appointment before the shit show at Dunfermline.

Still see people saying they would consider him to replace Imrie. Horrendous shout.

Aye. Get rid of Imrie and bring Tidser in. Real improvements.

[TRVMP]

Not a chance Tidser could hack it at a full time club. Kelty was fine, low expectations, decent squad. Any team with meaningful stakes or fans that don't blink one eye at a time just put too much pressure on him. Nice enough guy but never a pro manager.

Still, good news about the goal at Peterhead.

A goal? Or…?

Former Morton ace Lawrence "The Larry" Shankland scores for Scotland as they go 2-1 up against Scandinavian minnows Denmark in a must-win World Cup qualifying tie.

(Although Scotland concede right after.)

Assuming the squad we aexpect, Shankland will go to the World Cup next summer, the first ex-Morton player to do so since Kabba Modou-Cham of Belgium.

(Nah not really, it would be Joe Jordan in 1982, wouldn't it?)

Dave McPherson was in the 1990 squad, think he played in the 3 matches

EDIT - on second thoughts you probably mean ex-Morton at time he's picked for squad so that rules McPherson out, Jordan it is.
