  1. So was the treatment of the fans in the singing section on the opening day of the season not discussed? or has that since been resolved?
  2. Hillsborough report isnt the problem. Neither is the Taylor report really. The taylor report apparently states terracing can be safe so long as it is properly stewarded, ticketed etc. It is the governing bodies stance by just outlawing terracing in the top divisions. I dont really blame them as the SFA and co were hardly going to say 'fuck yas we are keeping terracing'. The media (and hysterical public at the time) would have crucified them claiming it was a slur on the dead fans or the SFA wanted people to die in scottish stadiums etc. Problem is now getting them to accept that terrible things happen due to the failings of men and people learn from mistakes.

    Films

    It is very good (well I thought so) Refreshing that films like this are still being made but tragic that they dont get shown in all of the major cinemas I think there is way too much shite getting made at the moment. Of the trailers ive seen to date the only one i fancy is 'Troll hunter' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLEo7H9tqSM
  4. Ah yes but you see Dave in sports all bar one of the worlds worst stadium disasters have involved football (the other one was ancient rome so im presuming wolf, shadow and lighting were in action) Theres never been anything like that in a Rugby match so say 'can we stand at the rugger' and the authorities say no problem. What the authorities apparently wont even consider is apart from ellis park in 2001 these disasters happened in very old or poorly maintained stadiums. The ellis park one coincidentaly is very similar to hillsborough in that too many fans were allowed in. Being an all seated stadium does fuck all when 120,000 people force their way into a 60000 capacity ground. Personally I think the chances of standing returning to UK grounds will improve if the classified Hillsborough documents ever see the light of day.
  5. Ya just jinxed it If we lose tomorrow its all your fault. I hope yer happy!!!
  6. Hardly finding a loophole The Sion situation kicked off before the first leg match and Sion basiclay said 'fuck it we may as well play these guys'
  7. Shamrock rovers just gone 2-1 up in belgrade
  8. Seems he suffered from the same affliction as Andy Dow
  9. http://planning.aberdeencity.gov.uk/docs/showimage.asp?j=110354&index=45215
  10. Its been called that ever since we first played them in the scottish cup during Ebbes time Standard lazy journalism. Both teams play way up north so are bitter 'local' rivals. Inverness to Aberdeen - 101miles Aberdeen to Perth - 88miles (never head our games with St Johnstone refered to as Derbies) Aberdeen to Dundee - 65miles
  11. wikipeda
  12. So chalali to be injured and out till February by 5pm saturday then?
  13. Yer only 3 weeks late in posting this
  14. Sportsound seem to have hired this 'expert on body language and speech' etc to predict the winners of each game (He make his predictions for the following week after he has heard the post match interviews with each manager). last week he got 5 out of 6 and if i recall it was roughly the same the week before. Both times ive heard him hes brought up Craig Brown and made out his comments in the press are doing more harm than good. He supposedly made up his mind that we would lost to hearts on the monday after the St Mirren game when willie miller said we shouldnt be panicking. So going by this guys logic we have already lost to Caley.
  15. In/Out: Out Pre match: Wedding in Ireland Match: wedding (unless the groom bolts in which case involved in a high speed chase) Post Match: Wedding dinner/ dance Prediction: 3-1. Honestly just fucking watch them win 3-1 and then the press will be full of stories about how our strikers have now gelled and are gunning for dundee in the cup
  16. You mean the now ex Dundee chairmen that encouraged them to spend spend spend based on cash that they allgedly were promised but didnt actually have , put them into administration and landed them with a 25point penalty. Then tried to claim it wasnt his fault?
  17. Poof. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKTsWjbjQ8E
  18. Its only a matter of time. ]http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/clips/p006yfj6/ripping_yarns_ripping_yarns_series_2_-_golden_gordon/]
  19. In/Out: Out but seriously tempted to make a late dash for it Pre match: If going then the ruck at the cash gate. If not flat Match: Away end or car Post Match: Train or flat Prediction: 0-0 knowing my luck
  20. Apparenlty that was the first time we have scored 2 goals in a friendly match at Hampden since September 1987
  21. If they are not fully fit they shouldnt be rushed back from long term knee injuries. If hes not back for the hearts game then questions need to be asked. Is he injured or are we keeping him safe to get a big transfer from blackburn?
  22. was an unused substitute on saturday be interesting if he eventually breaks into the first team for league and latter FA cup games or goes the way of Lee Miller
  23. Gone are the days of selling for profit then Bank or taxman will snaffle that up in a shot. Out of interest did anyone catch sportsound yesterday? I tuned in for about 10mins and there was some guy whp was apparently an expert on body language. Mccoist etc didnt come off too well Didnt fill me with confidence about old Craig Brown either though
