Oblivion was ok but having seen a certain low budget independant by David Bowie's son a few years back I was better placed to explain it to my 2 mates at the end

Parading the trophy at Ibrox I presume. Certainly had the warning signs up at partick station saying ''football at ibrox today. Subway will be busy between these times'

only bit I saw was their goalkeeper falling down liek a truck had hit him when kuyt dared to jump for a high ball infront of him. My dislike of Portuguese teams and my enjoyment when they fail steadily increases

exactly how many points are they likely to lose should they go into administration? Dunfermline got 10 but im sure I read somewhere in the spl its a % of your total points from the previous season?

I trust Partick are sending them both a bill http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-22351486

Do wonder what North Lanarkshire Council are going to do with an abandoned 8000 seat stadium. Is this to be the site of some of those missing social houses the government keeps promising?

Once again the media will do themselves a favour if they stop putting up headlines saying 'bomber caught' followed by the subheading ' the teenager 'suspected' of carrying out the bombing. Jury goes into any court assuming hes guilty from the start

Id prefer be brought footballers instead of dancers

Actually all we know is a cop was killed I haven't seen any reports stating it was them that did it. And given that the cops are now trigger happy I doubt yon other suspect will get a chance to be brought to trial so the story will be told by the US Government. Two dead. Public happy. lets go back to normal. Ill be interested to see how the right wing media spin the Chechen connection given the Russians and communism are still seen as the enemy by many Americans but now the enemy of Russia is turning their attention to uncle sam

Well thats good enough for me When a surveyor comes to check my office and gives me a report showing subsidence, foundation cracks, rotten roof timbers & potential fire hazards ill use the same logic

And your evidence?

This is a country where you can buy a machine gun at a trade show and not even be checked to make sure you don't have a history of armed robbery or murdering people. You could walk into the yank equivalent of B&Q and buy several crates if TNT and they wouldn't bat an eyelid

Banners and flags. Fuck sake Banners and flags do not make people want to come to the match. infact they piss off a fair amount of people who dont want their view blocked because you want to wave yer flag. If they went to AFC and suggested they give up space a stand which is still reasonably populated and visible on TV so the ultras and co to lay giant banners over seats then they need their heads examined Shut the RDU for a full season (thats right not even open it up for celtic games as we never get more than 15000 for them these days). Move the family section into the main stand and open up the merkland to the apparent 'hardcore'. Lower roof, closer to the pitch and no suits to break up any pockets of noise. Banners etc are optional. RDU has roughly the same capacity as the Merkland end and but does not need the same level of stewarding because of its layout (no stair towers etc). As BTR said this makes financial sense until such time as some magical solution is found that will see the fans hammering on the ticket office doors for the 3050 seats lying empty up the stairs. As for the blue meanies? who cares what they think. Get our own house in order first

Please lets not go down that road again

Matters not Welsh clubs have been in the english league since its formation. Only reason they are all still not was FIFA's threat to remove the Welsh national team from world cups as they didnt have their own league. Some welshies then volunteered to join it while others did not. Cardiff, Swansea etc cant represent wales in the UEFA competitions. Only way Cardiff etc would be kicked out of the English set up would be for wales to gain independence from the UK or for them to be completely liquidated and reform. But of course that doesn't matter to the plastics and the blue meanies

Gilmour threatening legal action allegedly. i wonder if I should be worried

Not sure but has anyone questions how easy it is for yanks etc to get hold of high explosives. I know its fairly easy to put together a bomb from household chemicals etc but Im pretty sure that in certain states you can purchase dynamite, small landmines, hand grenades, semtex etc just as easy as buying a machine gun. I wonder if someone will suggest all marathon runners should carry guns in future races?

cant recall but a club that worked its way up through the league system without relying on tv money, has one of the best youth academies in uk football and lives within its means thanks to a chairman who asked why the current leagues cannot be maintained but with a fairer share out of the cash and playoffs in each division as opposed to a club that has somehow gone from debt free with a brand new stadium in 2009 to being apparently on the brink thanks to the actions of its current board who let us not forget have had rumours about links with green, whyte etc ever since the blue meanies went tits up. I seriously doubt St Mirrens fans were consulted at all

I seriously doubt Ross County have anything to do with Green & Co St Mirren's board on the other hand........

Given the security at the 2010 London marathon and the level of paranoia the Americans appear to have I'm wondering how this sort was allowed to happen? In saying that I seem to remember there being more security at the forfar vs aberdeen cup tie that there was at the Colorado Avalanche vs Minnesotta wild ice hockey match

Newcastle city Centre to be avoided this afternoon then?

Millwall up to their old tricks again http://www.3news.co.nz/VIDEO-Fan-violence-in-stands-FA-Cup-semi-final-Millwall-Vs-Wigan/tabid/317/articleID/294172/Default.aspx
