  1. Plenty looting and plummeting in Paisley..
  2. Heard further good reports yesterday about it exceeding expectations.The fishing looks ace too...
  3. Am up those areas every other w/e.Gies a shout if youre stuck for ideas/what to do,tracks,trails,beaches,bnbs etc
  4. Walking for miles all day up and down hills doesnt bother me,but 5 minutes on a bike literally to me is torture.Even allowing for the different muscles used,you would think it wouldnt need that much of a transition Danny Mac - thats my favourite vid of his.Most folks need ropes to get up the In Pinn,fair play to him
  5. My recent track records a bit ropey,but another forum saying Andy Cannon close to signing,faever he is
  6. Signed a 2 year contract starting April or May this year . £200k though?,surely talking upper hundreds before thinking about selling
  7. Its a strange one.Our home crowds are probably less than they should be,but our away support is proportionally higher than most others Wasnt always the same though.IMO our core home support is pretty much the same as it always was.The away support has evolved a lot over the years though.When I went to my first away games in the late seventies,there were often only a handful of Dons fans there(with the exception of Dundee,or big cup games).Wasnt that great in the eighties either,in proportion to the success we had.Started to increase in the early nineties and grew to present levels around Ebbe's time despite having some of the worst ever teams.A strange one,disposable income increase maybe? ...good to see though,just wish we could grow the home support
  8. http://www.donssupporterstogether.com/index.php/component/k2/item/171-travelling-dons-fans-named-best-in-scotland Dont go to many away games these days,but well done the boys that do
  9. Apologies.Hadnt heard of the guy (or his age).Sheep on fire are usually good for news ...though I hear we're after a Turkish midfielder
  10. Sheep on fire-facebook are normally ok,but they took it from another site.Nothing on AFC site.Could well be bollocks
  11. Welcome min,where about in the N/E do you hail originally?
  12. He's got a bright future behind him.....
  13. This may be a wind up,but..... Hamilton accept £150k bid for Massimo Donati https://www.facebook.com/sheeponfire/?hc_ref=NEWSFEED
  14. Surprised to hear.Always looked busy,even recently
  15. Creeping Scouseism.
  16. Weve been going over to the western isles every year,for years, for the fishing and hillwalking.Love it,but,weve also built up a fund to go somewhere different every 5 years to break it up a bit Went to Norway,which was fine,but nae desperate to go back,Canada is an option but a bit far.Someone suggested Iceland.Fishing looks great,but dont know much about the place,and looking for other things to do while there.Anyone been and thought it was worht a visit? Any recommendations for Outdoorsy things to do,stuff to see?
  17. More of the pressing and urgency we showed against Hearts,and had in Deeks first full season,has been half the problem
  18. Stevie Ray Vaughan - Pride and Joy
  19. Its painful remembering how bad some of our keepers(and outfield players) have been,ie Bossu,Howard(remember him?),Soutar,Collin etc.What a cracking scouting network weve had over the years ,though to be fair,think we managed to help bring the worst out of them,we were in such a bad place at times. How we got Lewis,on the other hand..... Happier days. COYR ps Bossu,was that a 4 nil defeat at Killie or something? Was it all down to his shityness?
  20. Led Zep - Whole lotta love

    Films

    Flight was brilliant.Always like a Tom Hanks film so look forward to that one. Watched a random film called Plain Truth,about an Amish girl getting pregnant and the following rigmarole.Just looking at Amish people makes me depressed,but it was a decent watch with an unexpected ending
  22. Re - McGinn
  23. All tom widdows ones ^^^^ Ultr groups trying to introduce samba style songs to a Scottish crowd.It doesnt suit us.Probably why it doesnt catch on.A bit more imagination could use eg,some of our hundreds of local traditional tunes,change the words and have unique songs that more of us could identify with Folk standing in the back rows of the SS,when youre trying to watch the game from the concourse
  24. What a difference a day makes.Go away for the day,and half your strike force are potentially away. Hope McGinn isnt considering the Hearts move.I'd be looking at their manager,(who looks like he's done an SVQ football manager course at Brechin college),and thinking Do I want to work with this guy? Doesnt have the gravitas yet to gain the respect as a manager IMO.Looks a bit of a dweeb too Hope McGinn sees similar Hayes has stated he's settled here too(as long as McInnes is manager - his words). Maddison - a great player,but as said,wages could be used in a more important position if he doesnt stay
  25. Ha Ha.Nae sure what happened there.Sna'vy kine right enough
