    poor wee paul has died

    Paul the octopus, an unlikely star of the 2010 World Cup who 'predicted' the outcome of eight matches, has died at an aquarium in Germany.

    Unhappy

    RIP and condolences to all those who were close to Paul.

    Just wondering whether it'll be a minutes silence or a minutes applause before the games on Saturday? Hopefully it'll be impeccably observed either way.

    Octopus. Wierd name eh? Now if it was Octoleg or Octolimb or something similar I could understand. But why 8 ugly faces??? Beats me. Now if the plural was Octopi then I guess 8 pies Radge would be all over it.

    If they decide to do this before the derby, they should make it a minutes applause.

    Of course, if any of his relatives turn up the noise would be bl**dy deafening!

    If there's a silence it's just to set us up for a fall. SFA and that

    No need to worry about Paul's demise. There's a sucker born every minute.
