  1. No denying a fantastic night but back on this day in 1983 Pittodrie witnessed an even better one than that
  2. Cannae beat a bit of meat on the bone
  3. So, Monday morning and feeling a bit down about the whole AFC scenario currently, but to be honest it doesn't just stop there. Fifty plus years of playing and watching football every chance I could get and really starting to lose interest in the whole thing. My apathy (for want of a better description) is caused by a number of factors most of which have been mentioned on here and in isolation are manageable, but lump them all together and the issue increases. AFC are regressing, there is a general feeling that Scottish football is back the way it should be, dominated by two clubs built on years of hatred and religous bigotry. How long before the statement comes out of Pittodrie that finishing third would represent a successful season ? The national team I lost interest in a number of years ago. To think I used to think that failing at a Euro Championship or World Cup was depressing. FFS oh to just get there nowadays. Champions League football has become so so boring I rarely bother to watch a game in it. Same teams playing same teams year after year after year and getting richer and richer to the detriment of all others. Back to domestic football and we have "Project Brave" raising it's head. What the fuck is brave about letting the two biggest supported clubs in the land enter teams "B Teams/Colt Teams"(or whatever the fuck you want to call them) into your league set up. Just another method to allow them to hoover up what little young talent is out there and further increase the gap between them and the rest. Would normally be off to Fir Park on Friday night come hell or high water...right now couldn't give a fuck and highly unlikely to make the 45 minute journey to attend. Sure I read somewhere that our next 3pm league kick off @ home is not until 1st April. Farcical if true and just sums up how fucked the game really is. Merry Xmas everyone

    Anyone been to see the Tom Hanks one about the plane landing on The Hudson River yet
  8. Right, thought worth posting up the rules of this as fair few wrong entries in last while. Word must be from the previous song title NOT artist name.
  9. Afraid you're not min. No such song title by Duran Duran The line you quote is from song called "Is there something I should know"
  10. I'll be hanging oot there min
  11. Reason for describing this as a must win is because Tribute Act likely to beat Hamilton and go seven points ahead before we play tomorrow afternoon.
  12. Yep...apathy.....maybe we should have a thread about it
  13. Day before game and no match thread. Is there something to read into that An absolute must win game for us Bookies take on the matter Longest odds I can find are AFC 3/4, County 15/4. Out Recovering from Xmas night out Listening online Hair of the dog 1-2 (Hayes & McLean)
  14. Joboxers - Boxer Beat
  15. It's a resounding NO from me.
  16. Abandoned
  17. Who is that with Rocket ? Very generous odds Got some free bets sitting in a couple of online accounts that need to be used.
  18. Feeling the enthusiasm min
  19. Well the games are coming thick and fast now as we face our fourth game of the month already. Level of despondency amongst the support currently and we are in need of a boost. A scintilating performance would be wlecome but suspect the hree points are more important to close the gap on NewCo. Can't even begin to hazard a guess as to how McInnes will line us up, apart from there will be no place for Storie or Storey. Out Working Hopefully picking up a Red TV stream Bed 2-1 (McLean & Burns) Crowd prediction 8,885 (107 M/well fans)
  20. Hurricane Drunk - Florence & The Machine
  21. Last night started watching "Modus" on the IPlayer. Anyone that reads the book thread on here will know I like my "Nordic Noir" type books/tv. Three episodes in, shaping up nicely. Anyone that watched and enjoyed "The Killing" should give it a go
  22. Declared bankrupt owing HMRC £150k
  23. Smoke it or eat it
