Seems to me there is some sort if curse for any goalie who signs a contract at Easter Road. For about 10years in late 80s and 90s they had Goram and Leighton then it all went to shit.

One person already looking to make a MASSIVE £80 profit on Ebay by selling the trackie top (£200) and the pensioners jumper (£150)

Danny Ward keeping the bench warm at Leicester Ryan Hedges seems to be doing ok at Blackburn

Think some thread combining is required. https://www.donstalk.co.uk/topic/9-the-official-quotlets-all-laugh-at-heartsquot/page/65/

5live commentators talking up Carsley for remaining unbeaten when the greeks scored in stoppage time

Anyone in the fashion/ modeling industry care to explain that choice of pose for selling a football top?

That seems to be the norm now. Gone are the days where you would see Dons, Aranb, Hearts, even Falkirk tops in the likes of Inverness Intersport. My first ever Aberdeen Kit (JVC top) was bought by my Grandmother in London in the late 80s! The only sports shop ive seen selling non old firm/ english premiership/ real madrid tops is Greaves sports near Glasgow Central who had the Partick Thistle kit. If you want your clubs merchandise its through club shops only now. Had to check what sort of 'battery farm' they are trying to build. Thankfully its not one for torturing animals

Ross County isnt just Dingwall. Allness, Invergordon. Maryburgh, Conon Bridge, Strathpeffer, Tain, Beauly all close buy and they get people travelling from the West Coast. Theres aporox 30000 people in around Dingwall north of the kessock bridge Also Ross County send out (or at least used to) coaches to local schools (East and West Coast highlands) to run after evening training sessions so build relationships with kids from a young age. Be interested to know if Caley did anything similar in Moray etc as they never bothered with my area back in the 90s

Did the support get pretty much half of the old main stand as well?

Premier sports really pushing the boat out with their coverage. Commentatos slightly less biased than Gerry Mcnee

Apparently no VAR today Wonder if it will catch on?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cdrjjpyrzneo Took less than a year

Made it to 93

There's no other way

That'll do except for Devlin getting crocked by the supporters

I thought hed left hibs more than a year ago. Covid times goals only cement the 'football is nothing without fans' sentiment

Think I saw on the BBC gossip a few days back that Caley were sniffing about a loan for Bavidge.

You need enough space around the stadium for the entire capacity to be evacuated into a controlled space whilst still allowing space for emergency vehicles. You also need to plan for 20000 odd people suddenly packing into an area with infrastructure not currently designed to accommodate it. Road, pavement and junction improvements, traffic management Utility upgrades etc Football stadiums dont get 'compulsary purchase orders. One reason Arsenal's stadium was so expensive was not only did they have to buy the surrounding buildings, they also had to buy replacement houses/ commercial properties for the occupants. Stamford Bridge's redevelopment was effectively cancelled due to the objections of one lone householder. Carparking under a very large structure with significant weight fluctuations on former victorian industrial site with an underground stream on one side and a railway tunnel on the other? Network Rail held up a housing project near Edinburgh because 4 houses were too close to the roof of a tunnel. When asked what they think about having a stadium built close if not on top of their tunnel the short answer will ne 'No' and the long one 'FUCK no' Finally Emergency Access 'under a building'?! Yeah you really want to be parking the fire engine under the raging inferno. Gonna throw this out there. Whatever you may think or Architects, Stadium Designers, Engineers, Town Planners, and the Officials at the Club, do you think if Broadford works was a feasible they wouldnt have considered it?
