Wanna laugh? 

I went to a shoe shop in Berwick-upon-Tweed Tuesday afternoon and did a wee bet in Chisholm's a North East based betting company while we were there.

Literally not done any Aberdeen related selection since before Covid-19 stopped us going to matches.

£15 Luis Lopes Anytime Scorer. Aberdeen vs Partick Thistle.

Got (11/10) on it.

 

Went to go collect my £31.50 tonight and boy behind counter hands over my original £15 stake.

I go;

 

"He scored the first goal should be £31.50."

 

They'd marked him down as not playing!!!

 

Needed to be sent to Head Office to clear everything up and eventually got my money fifteen minutes later.

 

I said;

 

"The only thing I can think of is whoever was checking the slip must have seen 'Duk' as one of the four goalscorers and not known that was nickname of Luis Lopes!!!!"

Not got the best quality picture but that looked like a stonewall penalty to hearts?

Is heading to pub at half time wrong? Asking for a friend?

Arabs fans watching the scoreboard in florence tonight. 4-0 and still not half time yet so plenty of time for hearts to take the title

Could have been better but against that, it xertsinly could have been an awful lot worse

If we can somehow control Halland then second is ours for the taking.

Haaland is good but he is not a one man team. 
Haaland with Man. City - 
Haaland with Norway - 
Everyone was panicking about Norway in the playoffs for Euro2020 but they got dumped by the serbians.
World cup qualifying they lost 3-0 at home to the turks and could only manage a 0-0 at home to Latvia so as I see if they are on par with scotland in terms of erratic performances.

Georga and Cyprus are usually the type of games which will trip up Clarke & Co

Expensive pay off in february

Cynic in me wonders if it would have been less had porteous not suddenly becone scotlands messih in the eyes of the media

The world of football management is indeed a fickle business.

Got to ask what more could they realistically expected from Cooper. Survival in top league was always going to number one objective for Forest.

Think it would be a scandalous decision if they punted Cooper at this early stage of the season, particularly having backed him yto the extent they did in the last transfer window

Who'd have thought replacing 72% of the team that got you promoted would cause any problems?

3,700 tickets sold so far with 300 available, should be a cracking atmosphere. Hopefully the team oblige and put on a good performance.

Thats it everyone shows up.
Despite the club indicating the Hibs allocation was sold out the upper tier had lots of empty seats

Milne held a shindig a Taylor's house?

Its not the same without the Killie Commentator

Killie keeper is having a mare. No need to go for that

I must have the KillieTV stream as the commentator isnt exactly enthusiastic

Think is heart rate went from 45 - 48 when Taylor scored.

Failed state

Reports of insider trading to short the pound among other things however if the Police etc start an investigation the government pulls their funding. Not sure if thats always been an option or something brought in over the last decade or so but whole thing reminds me of Armando Iannucci's film 'The Death of Stalin'
 

Cant say im impressed so far.
Has Ryan Christie been ordered not to shoot since he moved to Bournemouth?

England join Wales in being relegated from the A-groups in the Nations League.

I shall just Jinx it by pointing out Scotland could potentially be promoted to the A groups tomorrow

See How They Run

Not bad but not great so glad it was a free ticket

They have least got 3 different metro lines with 20 minutes of stadium so at least got a reasonable options for public transport. 

Bloody selfish socialist europeans with their adequete public services.

Never sparing a thought for the cayman and virgin island economies or their private school friend's bank balances

Original stadium was built in the 90s for a failed athletics bid. Reason for not having a complete bowl is they built it around the original stand

Seen the scales sending off again.
Id still say VAR would have overturned that

Seemed to be timewasting from the moment Duk scored which is pathetic.

This is hibs not brazil 1970 and the longer it takes to put them under pressure in their own half the less likely they will concede

The passing out from the back was an accident waiting to happen as soon as hibs realised the dons were happy to sit back and yet they persisted making the defence work harder than was necessary
