  1. Tansey being reported on SSN now
  2. Copy and paste from EE site Aberdeen FC will not make a transfer deadline day swoop for Australian defensive midfielder Rostyn Griffiths. The 27-year-old Roda JC was today lined with a move to Pittodrie from the Dutch top flight. However former Blackburn Rovers trainee Griffiths, who played in the Scottish top flight during a loan spell at Gretna in 2008, is not on the Dons radar. Meanwhile Dons boss Derek McInnes has not ruled out a deadline day move to strengthen his squad for the Premiership push.

    Frank Finlay actor best known to those of us of a certain age for Bouquet Of Barbed Wire in the 70's. A show way ahead of it's time.

    I am with Rocket on this.....that and the fact he took a fee every time he hosted "Children In Need" whereas others gave their time for nothing.

    Decider it is then.....just in time for my lunch
  8. Given the fact that St Mirren have today signed David Clarkson on loan then I would imagine this isn't going to happen
  9. Cammy Smith wanted by St Mirren on loan until season end. Given lack of game time for him currently, I'd be inclined to let him provided we don't get shot of Goodwillie this window.

    Well done to both Murray and more surprisingly Konta into the last four
  11. Hearts at their thuggish best again today against Hamilton. Still first half and down to ten men. Wouldn't bet against them finishing with less than ten on the park. Would love to see Hamilton get a result against them this afternoon.
  12. And there we go. West Ham sit back and it's two each. West Ham have nothing to lose now so go for it.
  13. Hope not. Would like West Ham to keep up the tempo and push for a third goal. If they sit back on their lead there is a fair chance City will eventually punish then.
  14. Shocking goal for a team like City to concede. 2-1 The Hammers
  15. Aye watching that as well Bobby. Agree about Payet, he has been superb in the first 45. Fair play to Joe Hart as well for that save from the free kick also.
  16. Watched that game at lunchtime. Incredible finish to it with two goals in injury time. The big German lost his cool when they scored the winner.

    Celeb Deaths

    Not really a celebrity but another musician passed away. Dale Griffin the drummer with the group Mott the Hoople featuring the wonderful voice of Iain Hunter passed away at the weekend. Somewhat ironically their bes known hit was "All The Young Dudes" written by none other than David Bowie. So what better way to remember both of them than having a listen to this.

    The world of music is having a bad time right now. Glenn Frey guitarist with The Eagles passed away aged 67.
  22. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ebooks-The-Man-Who-Watched-Women-ebook/dp/B00TQDWIHK/ref=pd_cp_351_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=02WJ5RN0JRSV41QVG5KN Read the above book between Xmas and New Year. From the creators of The Bridge (TV series). Maybe a bit drawn out and could potentially have been trimmed by a 100 pages or so, but a pretty decent read. Not the most difficult plot to figure out, but strong characters (no all particularly likeable ) make this a decent read. Believe this is the second book in a planned trilogy. Haven't read the first instalment and although I will probably do do, this book is perfectly capable of being read as a standalone. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Natchez-Burning-Penn-Cage-Book/dp/0007317964/ref=sr_1_cc_5?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1453046725&sr=1-5-catcorr&keywords=greg+iles+penn+cage+series+in+order Greg Iles is an author I have read a lot of over the years and have never really been disappointed with any of his book. Natchez Burning is set in America's deepest south and uncovers events from the early 60's which are uncovered forty years on and focuses on the actions of those responsible trying their worst to keep them hidden in a dark and troubled racist past. Again this is part of a trilogy (this is the first part), the second part "The Bone Tree" is already published. This book is a big read and runs to over 850 pages as does the follow up. Would give Natchez Burning 4.5/5 and looking forward to getting into the second book, just hope given the fact it is another 850 page book that it isn't repetitive and going back over a lot of what happened in the first one.
  23. All of them ?
  24. Fuckity fuck.
