@shawntartanarmy No it’s a child protection issue across the entire database. Back in the day there wasn’t as much awareness of that with games

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

Can’t wait for all the comments when the new FM is released telling me I’ve missed Sassetti for United…

FYI he can’t be included as he’s only 15

We've been conned in believing sourdough bread is superior. The crust is too solid and the inside is just fluffy and floppy. It's inferior as toast or as a sandwich. It's just a con.

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

@BarryDewar4 Yeah, I think there’s a good chance you’re right that we won’t see him again

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

Pretty sure Leiper will be sat down on Monday and told not to be so direct. It’s not the Goodwin way…

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

Really don’t see the value in Ruairidh Adams sitting on the bench for League One side. Surely United will need to keep an eye on that one?

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

@alanftemple A top tier tweet. Bravo 😅

[Alan Temple @alanftemple]

Gianni Infantino somehow managing to babyface Sepp 'Brown Envelopes' Blatter is the best bit of booking since the Austin/Hart double-turn at WM13

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

@alanftemple As it was a friendly he played in, can he switch back to Finland?

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

It’s been fantastic to get back to qualifying for major tournaments but ultimately, 4 goals scored across all 3 of them is the reason supporters have lost faith in him. For context, a Motherwell player scored 3 in this World Cup alone.

Steve Clarke has stepped down from his role as Scotland head coach.

Going to bed: "Now of course for Scotland's chances of qualifying all that needs to happen in tonight's games is for Alan Shearer to remain bald"

Waking up:

Scotland fans ahead of the other groups playing their final game…

If you go to the link in the tweet it’ll highlight the best way to contact me for more info 👍

I’m on the lookout for some help with researching some Scottish teams for the next Football Manager. Clubs from the top two divisions are Celtic, Kilmarnock, Partick Thistle and Queen’s Park. Some L1 and L2 sides too. Read more about what’s involved at https://t.co/SsLx1MuuDo

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

This argument on Sportsound is incredible. Neil McCann has completely lost his head. Tom English is bang on.

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

@Diggers71 not sure the data points to that though. All depends on what’s seen as success. If it’s to get a first team game for a professional club before a certain age then maybe, but from a Utd perspective at least, most of these youngsters who break through with us don’t really make it

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

Unsurprising. could write a fair few replies to all the tweets in response the inevitable tweets from fans who’ll blame the player or his agent for the move, but simply put,the player himself is allowed to back himself to make a success of this move and make great money doing so

[Alan Temple @alanftemple]

Not great news if you are a Dundee United fan -- but the same story is happening up and down the land

Not really United's fault, who really did try to keep him (detailed within); nor the player's, who has an inviting opportunity

Food chain is just absolutely killing SPFL sides

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

@finchleyflyer And that’ll come down to the finances I suppose rather than impact on the pitch

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

@finchleyflyer But I would still think they back themselves to do it though, and that should be applauded.

And let’s be honest, we’d likely all do the same if push came to shove.

[Stuart Milne @SGMilne]

@finchleyflyer But in fairness, staying at United (or any SPFL side) is no guarantee of a decent career either. For every Kerr Smith who went there and didn’t break through there’s probably 10 Declan Glasses or Chris Mochrie’s who stayed, didn’t break through and is financially worse off too
