Celtic TV, but its about $30 per month. 

Yeah used to have it, they kept stuffing up my account and it'd think it wasn't current so it was continuous support tickets for each game. Stuff that for a joke.

SPL rights are a shambles, even worse than most other football leagues.

Atkinson is playing as a true RWB in a back 5, I really think this is his best position striking the perfect balance for him as an attacking full back.

AMB starting vs Rangers. Ross up 2:1.

Looks as if he broke his nose but continued playing


By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

Shhh are we reverting to a back 3 at national team level? To be fair that'd get the best out of Atkinson and Elder but I wouldn't want to use an extra spot on another CB. Devlin deep sweeper?

The derby is going to be mental
Assist for Devlin and 90 for Atkinson

Nicholas Bilokapic (19) was on the bench for Huddersfield Town again, hopefully he can get a run in the first team , the experience will do him good.

cant for the life of me understand the omission of Devlin, we literally need a midfielder who can drive forward with the ball and we dont have one in the squad lol. Always looking to go forward.. bizarre he's not there.

The Hearts fans are falling out of love with him it seems, after reading their fan forum comments. He got an assist and set up the second, but he's getting caught on the ball too often & his passing is an issue. fotmob stats show his passing accuracy was 70% & was dispossessed 5 times. He makes up for it in other ways, but if he turned the ball over with shit passing for us against Japan for example, it could be very costly

this is often the issue for aussies abroad

most of our aussies have a dip in form after initial success because once the adrenaline wears off you have to adjust to being away from your support networks, playing in different temperatures and much more frequently

if he survives he will go to another level

Stuttgart panicking loaning in a 19 year old striker from Sporting. 3 goals in 48 games. Not Kuol's season to break through but they aren't really showing the faith despite having exceeded expectations so far.

Not really wanting him for his passing its not his best attribute, his energy, ability to win back the ball, willingness to drive forward with the ball. We got mooy and hrustic for the passing range. We need a decent high energy defensive midfielder to break up attacks against japan. Mooy and Irvine cant do it.

Same reason we need Atkinson. Uruguay sitting 5th on table & Columbia 6th. If we finish 3rd, beat UAE, the current squad aint beating either of those Sth American sides

I still think he's a risk at this stage. I like his energy and he does break up play, but he got found out by Celtic the other night. I'm not really sure why Kenny Dougall doesn't get picked? CDM for mid table Championship team and plays 90 mins every week. I've watched a few of his games this season & he's a very good player. James Holland is another option & so is Stensness. If you want a younger bloke, then I'd go Stensness.

When I think of Devlins attributes I think of a young Matty McKay.
As Devlin matures and improves his game I think he can be a real asset to the Aussie squad although I'm not sure he'll be a nailed on starter he could be relied on to come in and do a job or come on to see out a game and we'll need that.
He'll learn alot from this season and hopefully he can atleast be apart of the Asian Cup rebuild when we should see some of the older guys moved on.

Disappointing for Genreau dumped out the cup to a 4th division team, his team mate got a red card 20 mins lol would have had a chance at playing one of the big clubs if he made it to the last 8.
