  1. Do we play them at home first or second if we beat this Cyprus mob?
  2. Dinna get me started on DJ Hamilton..... The thing you have to remember is that for every sports star who has decided to go down the 'brand' route there are a hundred more who don't give it a second thought. That's the way I see it anyway. Must admit I am quite fond of my 'Alan Tate for men' aftershave. The women love it.
  3. Jesus H Christ. You would think they had been humiliated enough without trying to get the team thrown out because one of their players took some extra strong asthma medication. Coming to think about it how hilarious would it be if they were successful with that complaint....... 'The mighty Rangers.... back where they belong.... big European nights.......' ......papped out again in the 2nd round by some diddy team from Cyprus.
  4. They need not worry as a certain Alex Mcleish has already popped his CV/begging letter in the post. Brilliant news and more good times to be a dandy. Management confirmed, Europa draw on Monday, 1 new and 1 semi new player to look forward to seeing and some big hints at a bit of cash to splash. We give the board a lot of stick but I reckon it's our turn to play our part and help bump up the season ticket sales.
  5. ^^^^ Looks smashing crazz but you nae being a bit snide with the beef in those olives?
  6. Gutted, I have already paid for mine but now I know you wont be going I might try and get a refund Joining a supporters club doesn't guarantee you a ticket for Ibrox or the cup games. As for Europa, for the more popular games the club usually do a ballot so it's pot luck. The atmosphere at Pittodrie is, as you have said, dire to say the least. North East folk like to go to the games and just watch football. It isn't all down to the club.
  7. There's a 50% chance Mrs Tyrant will be raging. We don't know where we play first leg until the draw. They pick a seeded ball and then an un-seeded ball and put them both in to another bowl. A quick shuffle then they take one out and whichever team that is will play at home first.
  8. I've not checked my ticket from Friday night yet so you never know

    Slowly making up my mind on T2. Watched it 3 times since my original post and definitely growing in to it. A few things bother me though: There is way too much reminiscing to the original. It was a classic and it was a long time ago but it's well over done. Is it a new film or a sequel/anniversary/best of all rolled in to one? I find the relentless nods to hibs a bit sickening (yes, we get it after the first one but come on huh?) Which leads me to my main point. With all the hibs stuff (flags and strips everywhere, graffiti on walls etc) I presumed that the scene after renton and sickboy have looted the lodge where they are having a coke fuelled table football binge and then end up sliding on their knees celebrating was filmed at Easter Road. I read that it is actually filmed at Tynecastle which I thought would be a big no no, no matter what filming constraints were in place. Now just watching the film again I can't make up my mind which stadium it is. It looks like Easter Road to me but then, when the shot pans right out, the flood light pylons and overhead, white gantrys make me think it is Tynecastle. Can anyone confirm?
  10. Is that some kind of ancient proverb that I haven't heard before? The old plastic bottle next to a drain thing....
  11. Set your series link tonight. Band of brothers is starting from scratch on Sky Atlantic at 9pm. In the top 5 tv programmes of all time for me. Outstanding piece of television.

    Gifted - Cracking little film, brought a tear to my eye. Only just seen T2.... watched it twice but still haven't made up my mind. "Choose life, verrrrronica" Watched Logan a while back - Excellent Kong Island - Shite
  13. 'atta boy. Stay positive Just wait till June the 19th like everyone else, book your flights and enjoy yourself.
  14. Spose it depends which way you think the game will go. I would like to give septic something to think about when they see our starting line up. I also think Wright wont let the occasion get to him if he does start. Even then if things aren't going our way we have McGinn to come on and do his thing. I would rather it was that way round than taking McGinn off and relying on Wright to change the game. What ever happens he needs to get a decent amount of game time. Imagine what it could do to your confidence if you played like today only to be handed a consolation 5 minutes at the end of Saturdays match.
  15. Nothing too surprising there is there? Americans signing billion dollar deals with the Saudis... Sounds like normal service being resumed to me. I noticed he took Ivanka with him.... I'm kinda falling for her
  16. She stormed of the ITV2 set not long ago when they were filming Celebrity Juice. I guess Keith Lemon was pressing the wrong buttons. She's trying to put herself out as more sensible and intelligent now instead of just a pair of tits Is she nae having a fling with that Assange nutter who (I think) is still holed up in the Equadaurian Embassy? Back in the day, aye obviously but nae now. I'm out!
  17. Bet that's well tasty crazz.... I had a meatball pizza from dominoes..... about 4 hours ago and I'm still feeling like shit.
  18. I've absolutely loved this time of year the last 3 seasons. Already told work i'll have to take my holidays at short notice again! From a purely selfish point of view I would have preferred a round 1 start as it means an extra euro trip and to be honest I don't think playing the 1st round has done us any harm in previous campaigns but I ain't going to grudge a squad of our size a few extra weeks rest before getting back in to it. Again, just being selfish I would like to draw one of the Estonian teams. I am thinking about taking the camper there later in the year so would be good to get a recce trip in first. Wouldn't complain if we drew the N.I team either though. Would like to avoid Norway.
  19. Cheers Mr Daft. If I dinna bother coming back that means it wont cost me fuck all Bargain at double the price.
  20. Anyone know rough prices that airlines would charge to take a pusher over to spain?
  21. Fit a yolk getting tickets tonight. I've been stuck in their virtual waiting room reading top gear Feb 2006 magazine for 40 minutes now
  22. Cheers Mallaga, I'll be back to the deli next weekend so I will speak to the wifie again. I think she knows what I mean but she wasn't sure if they can get it from their own livestock or would have to source it from else where. I'll make do with my rib-eye for noo Festival sounds fantastic, I always hear of stuff like that in other countries and always wonder why we can't do something similar here. Imagine the paperwork you would need to fill out. Health and safety, food prep hygiene certificate, music license.... till 6am?? :o One chance and that is no chance. No wonder you flitted.
  23. That looks brilliant. We should celebrate meat more often. Mallaga, I asked the folk at the deli about your skirt steak. They told me to ask if it is called skirt steak in this country as there are different names for it. She was on about a marinaded brisket or something. I got confused, grabbed my rib-eye and came home
