The Harry Wraggs always seem to carry a respectable away support, sad thing is, these days they seem to have a ceiling of circa 2-2.5 K for home games. I recall back in the day they had a massive "sleeping" support, but that seems to have gone for burton. I guess a lot down to the shifting demographic of the locality in which they're based.

Hibs!!

If Osman played for us he'd be permanently suspended. We don't get away with players like that playing for us.

I dinna hae a good feeling about this one. We've made heavy weather of the Harry Wraggs this season and with the injuries...... Hope I'm wrang like.

I'd be feart, but I'd have a dart. Wouldnae gie her my real name and mebbe ask her to wear a burka just for the craic.

There is a chance our paths crossed, I was a more regular visitor back in the early/mid 90s.

It'll be 25 years this October since I left the St Tropez of the North East for the Highlands (being a Stoney loon born and raised) so I doubt our paths would've crossed therein? Oddly, the last time I crossed paths with him would've been in the Station (I used to be a stalwart for the Station darts team many, many moons ago) on a visit hame about a year ago (a pattern emerges.......). He got in touch with me since then asking me to compere one of his "Smokers" (I'm nae sure if him and Mr Beat are still doing as many?) he was doing for Cowie Thistle (my auld fitba team) but sadly I couldnae make it.

Shoulder injury, apparently.

He's a character DC, and nae mistake. Good pal of mine, though I've seen less and less of him last few years living oop North. How did you have the dubious privilege of making his acquaintance? Got to know Billy a wee bit through the aforementioned bro-in-law, and hung with him at a few social functions (as well as enjoying a hungover breakfast at his house after a wedding in Dumbarton many, many moons ago but that's a long story) and he's a genuine toff of a guy. Sad to hear of his health trevails, hope he can get the better of it and have some sort of decent quality of life in his twilight years.

Ah, OK. Prolly wouldnae be an issue unless The Cabbage get to the cup final anyhoo.

I'd love to see the Penny Dainties usurp Der H*n and the diets for third. Question. Say the JJs win the treble, does the third Fairs Cup place go to the cup runners up or fourth in the league?

She looks a wee bit scary.......like she'd cut you up if you hit the vinegars too early or she'd keep a gun under the pillow to be utilised in the event of flaccidity. You'd need to, but I reckon there'd be a sigh of relief nae canny once a'thing was done and dusted.

Seems to be a consistently bad football manager does "Ownie", seems to have gotten job after job on the back of a wee hotter at Burnley a number of years ago. Did he nae KB raselickbyrawaybutbigman at one point?

I'm going to break with tradition. No. Fuck no. Not if it was possessed of the last stroop on planet earth. There's a repugnance to yon that goes beyond reasonable.

Bobby Graham. I was blubbing at the end

Lucky, lucky Sevco.

Looking at him on TV the now, he's certainly got a peever's coupon these days. Fit did him and Winker Watson fa' oot aboot?

I mind that game. The cup was a much bigger deal then, also, we'd put out Deadco and the Joooot in the previous rounds.

It's down to season tickets. Folk have got out of the habit of shelling out on a week by week basis. Add to that, any time we get a home tie that's remotely tasty, it's moved to a half arsed kick off time/day.

Caught a wee bit of Sportsound, specifically Ayr v Clyde. I dinna know if Clyde were just wearing particularly unflattering shirts, by by fuck they had some porky looking chiels playing for them.

At my time of life, the pie is defo a higher priority!!

What I canna understand is how few County had, sub 2000 was it? This tournament is half of their (and our) shot at actually winning summat. I understand there's a season ticket culture these days, and with cup ties nae being on it, there's an extra shell-out for the game. But it's nae like it was Queens Park or the like in the first round, this was a home game against a big side (a side that they have a terrific record against at home) for a 1/4 final place. If I was a County fan, I'd be well disappointed with that turn out.

Cunt.

Aye, that's what you get I suppose. The lassie on the pie stall actually said " We always sell heaps of them and we never get enough in when Aberdeen are here". Ach the macaroni pie was OK.

Dominated the game without ever creating enough. Thought it would be a typical County game with us being suckered but instead Shay popped up with his left peg curler. Cracking bounce at the goal, Bg Ash had a right good game. BITTERLY disappointed that the haggis pies had gone by the time I got to the front of the Q.
