  1. Tenementfunster, Being epileptic I didn`t realise I was entitled to a free bus pass til a couple of years ago. Should really follow up the railcard thing. Only really started using the train again about 2004 as I got back into going to games more often.
  2. I keep forgetting to pick up a form at the station!
  3. Sorry it`s the author in me! I do have a right to freedom of speech yeah? I`m just as annoyed at the way things went on Saturday just as much as any of the other 4000+ who travelled to watch were too.
  4. I was absolutely gutted at those first fifteen minutes of madness. Thank God I wasn`t going to Inverness to watch that cack. There`s actually a direct train leaves Berwick-upon-Tweed for the Highlands at 6:19am on a Saturday arriving in Jag country at 11:59am. Problem is there`s no transport to Berwick-upon-Tweed until that 07:40am bus! Do I think I`ll apply for a December 20th ticket? Not on that showing I won`t! I don`t goto home games because I just can`t afford it. So I try to make as many away games as I possibly can. Think I`ve done OK to date. Couldn`t get a brief for Celtic and Ayr/Kilmarnock in the Cup were day nights to travel. But I`ve seen the wins at Motherwell, Falkirk, St.Mirren and the draw at Tynecastle not to mention the weekend`s derby. I spent around £75-85 which for a guy on DLA and Incapacity Benefit is a lot of saving up to do. At times I would just like a little more value for money. Yes we won three of the five games I`ve went to this season but we`ve hardly set the heather on fire in any of these encounters have we? SeeBass
  5. Did he not save another Riordan penalty for us at our end in a 2-1 win at Easter Road a few years back? I`m sure Mackie netted both goals that day. Was quite a sunny day in May if memory serves me right.
  6. Bus leaves Duns at 7:40am and gets into Berwick-upon-Tweed at 8:15am. Will go for an English breakfast in a cafe near to the station before my direct train to Dundee leaves at 9:29am arriving in the city of Discovery at 11:44am. Train going back is at 17:29 where I change at Edinburgh Waverley for the 19:00 to Berwick-upon-Tweed getting in around 19:42 before the bus goes to Duns around 20.20 and gets in about 21.00.
  7. I`m definitely coming even though I can`t afford it. Have to leave Duns at twenty to eight Saturday morning just so I can arrive in Dundee for quarter to twelve. Won`t get home til just gone nine in the evening. Got my ticket for Easter Road next week too. SeeBass
  8. Do you think we`ll take a lot down even though it`s pay at the gate as I don`t want to turn up to not get in or miss part of the action? My brother Craig`s just started University at Dundee in September and lives across the road from Tannadice so I`m killing two birds with one stone and using the game as an excuse to come and see him for the first time in two months. He`s also coming to the match even though has no interest in the sport of football. SeeBass
  9. Hey after we took the first of the doubles that night to go 1-0 and stop the granny I said if we win from here I`ll buy the whole side a drink. Probably just as well we were playing in the Royal British Legion because being tee-total I hate buying a round of drinks for folk that leave full glasses and bottles untouched before going home. What a waste of money! Round for eight men cost £12.35 and I have the receipt hanging by the fridge magnet in the kitchen as prove. Teammates made me ask for one they were in such disbelief that I stuck to my promise. SeeBass
  10. After coming back from Tynecastle on Saturday night I went to my local and spoke to a Jambo who wasn`t at the game. He asked me if it was a penalty. I was honest enough to say I thought from where I was standing it was, although relived when the ref took back his decision because I felt to lose to a late spot-kick would have been a bit of an injustice as we were worth our point. Especially having hit the woodwork twice in the second-half. This Jambo who plays for a Darts team in the town that has lost only one match in four years (to my waste of space team 8-4!) came back with the remark; "Doesn`t mean you deserve anything from a game just because you hit the frame of the goal more than once. That`s like saying I should win my leg of darts because I went for a double and it bounced off the wire numerous times." What an idiot! One of those blokes who always has an answer for everything.
  11. Dave, I`ll always remember the Hibs fans taunting us with; "1-0 and you f****d it up, 1-0 and you f****d it up!" We came back at them; "What a s***y, what a s***y, what a s***y home support, shall we sing a song for you!" At the time I thought to myself the way we`re acting you`d think it was us that had the 4-1 lead. Seemed quite strange that for the first time ever in life my team were getting thrashed and I wasn`t upset."
  12. I`ve only ever seen the lads win three times in 17 years at Tynecastle (twice in the last three or four seasons, the other my very first Dons game back in April 91`), yet no matter what kind of result we get it`s always a fantastic occasion. Especially with memories like Baz`s injury time equaliser to almost guarantee us European football. From an Aberdeen point of view Easter Road when we were shagged 4-1 in the Scottish Cup Replay for me was one of most brilliant nights atmospheric wise I`ve ever experienced in my life. SeeBass
  13. I don`t usually berate a former play but when that chorus first got going I had to join in or else I`d have wet my pants it made me laugh that much. Take Care! SeeBass
  14. Aren`t we due a thunderbolt soon from our Captain Marvel? Got a funny feeling it could be tomorrow. Take Care! SeeBass
  15. I once celebrated Steve Lovell`s last gasp equaliser at Inverness whilst marking a very important darts match. What`s the daftest way you`ve ever celebrated a goal?
  16. GlasgowDon, I don`t make any secret of the fact my SOH is atrocious. I`m not from the same planet as everyone else. My local bookie says if I`d been braver and included Copenhagen in that £10 treble winnings would have went up to £292.95 as suppose to the £94.50 I got. SeeBass
  17. With some of my pennies won I decided to do four £2 four team accumalators and one £2 five team accumalator from the 80 sides playing last night. My five team one came up the most outfits I`ve ever had and it`s taken me awhile to get off the four mark! Not great prices but FK Austria Vienna, SC Braga, NEC Nimijen, Galatasary and VFB Stuttgart won me a further £21 (£33.31 in total) to go beside the other £84.50 from the previous night. Does nobody else like betting on the European scene?
  18. I went to collect my money on Bayern and the other boys yesterday. After estimating between £90-95. Woman gave me just £49.50 so I kicked up a fuss and said I didn`t think this was right. Her explanation? Computer had forgotten to include Inter Milan in the bet! Now I knew one day machine would get the better of man however this is ridiculous. What percentage of people happy with £39.50 profit would have just walked away not realising them behind the counter were to blame? Actual winnings? £94.50 says it all guys. And don`t make me laugh like my pal did last night by stating; "What`s the problem Lee? Just got the four and nine the wrong way round!" Take Care! SeeBass
  19. Would folk buy a season review on DVD like they did those videoes in the nineties? Last one I got was 1993-94. Surely a bit more money for the club if they invested the time in the project no? Take Care!
  20. Waiting on Bayern (5/6) tonight for my £10 treble to come up. Already have Atletico (7/4) and Inter Milan (19/20) from last night although was scared to put FC Copenhagen in at (21/10) as FC Moscow on their own patch will be a formidable team to contend with. SeeBass

    Comedians

    Anybody got any favourites? Ross Noble is probably the one I would like to go and see. The sketch he did about fighting an invisble animal was hilarious. The perfect volunteer being the Giant Panda so you can give him/her a second black eye to go with the one they already have! Take Care! Seebass
  22. All our goals in Europe last year gave me a dilemma. Was Mackie`s finish in the Ukraine better than Hewitt`s against Madrid? Why did I think Derek Young had scored the opener when head to head with Lokomotiv? Smith`s second put me in tears because of the sheer noise and disbelief everybody made apparent. And what was the outer body experience all about when Antonsson gifted us our third? What was Foster doing so far forward when putting the icing on the cake with number four. Then looking at Walker`s lovely strike going wide how come the net bulged resulting in a delayed reaction and what the hell was Michael Rensing trying to do letting Sone find the smallest hole in his goal to score. Knowing my last memory of Stevie Lovell scoring would be locked away in an independant bookmaker`s shop freezing my bollocks off. Madness. SeeBass
  23. Mizer, Meant to say a team goal or one of individual brilliance. I remember Paul Bernard`s goal against Motherwell in the 6-5 thriller striking a chord for the first choice. SeeBass
