SWA

I hate when an outfield player goes in goal and everyone cheers when they make a save, like it's the best save ever, regardless of how shite it actually was. 

my wife just called to say she has invited some mates around on Saturday night for some wine and chat and wants me to stay away.

The chat?

I'd say, Severin, Miller and Zander are all on 4k + are they not?

Like fuck they are.  Surely not. 

Ah thought it was common knowledge we took ower Miller's contract fae the Jutes and it was just ower 3k a wik

I think the average Championship salary was only 4k a week in 2006. Hardly much more than AFC pay.

We cannae hae many players on 4k a week though, if any?!?  Ah guess our average wage is nearer 1k a week

Can anyone explain why these English clubs can afford these 'Film-Star' salaries they pay to average footballers?  Are their crowds vastly superior to ours, better prize money at stake, better sponsorship and TV money?

Answered the question yersel min, the teams that have been in the Premiership, and are then relegated, get some sort of compensation up to 5 years (ah think) after they've been relegated.  They prob take bigger risks because of the lure o' the Premiership and it's cash as well.

The latest deal between Sky/BBC and the English Fitba league was worth over £260 million and starts next year if ah remember right.

Fook me, that is mental. I thought he would be on about 8-10k

Tell me aboot it, he said it himsel saying that he didnae just go tae Celtic for 14k a week, he wanted tae play as well, but that Strachan wiz stoppin him.  Think he'd be a crackin player for us but there's no way on earth we can afford tae even contemplate competing with that sorta wage.  Championship football it is for Riordan then 

You are obsessed with architecture.

Design of things to come

Thunderbolts and lightning.  Very, very frightening.

No point in us rushing 'Headlong' into the puns

There's no point trying to organise any form of protest through this forum. Some guys who have already renewed their season ticket don't even know this board exists. Paper aeroplanes are definitely the way to go for anyone who feels that strongly!

Agreed min. That's the pragmatic view. Also the difference in money moving to the English Championship is vast.

On that note, wiz readin the ither day that Derek Riordan is on 14k a wik at the tattie-dome.  At's kar-ay-zee! 

surely that's like forgetting yer first ride?!?!?!?

"Ab-Ur-Deeen"

Repeat

I've held my tongue all day over this as I didn't want to take anything away from the lad.  But a number of times yesterday he tripped over the ball, got it tangled between his legs and fell over nothing in particular.

Put the ball out of play twice wi his heel whilst he seemed to be in control of the ball

I have to be honest and say that I feel really sorry for him, he's spent a lot of time and money to get what he wants and that result has ruined it for him.  It really is a shame as everyone else could see it coming, but he had the blinkers on the whole time and turned a blind eye to the obvious.  It was always going to happen.  This recent turn of events will really ruin him and I think people will turn against him now considering all his bleating in the press, the public can see through his obvious lies, and I think the press will really get torn into him now.

This is going to cost him a hell of a lot of money as well......

Wait a sec...... This isn't the Mohammed Al Fayed - Diana Inquest thread?!?!?!?!??! 

How have we had to play our league games whilst they have been allowed to put them on the back burner?

They are the Old Firm, that's why.

When Sky dropped our football Scotland should have dropped them.

Roger Mitchell turned doon 40million 

I wouldn't say any of those bands made it 'big' over in America.

Well 'at tells us all we need tae ken on yer knowledge of music min. 

I didn't know the rolling stones did, I'm not a fan

You're not a fan of The Rolling Stones?  

I wouldn't say any band (from this side of the world) apart from The Beatles have conquered America so you're talking absolute nonsense.

Were Bush nae huge in the States?  Am sure Coldplay have a massive followin ower there an a'?

Fit aboot The Kinks?  The Animals?  The Police?  Dire Straits?  Def Leppard?  New Order?  Billy Idol?  Eurythmics?  The Clash?

Radiohead have done aright ower there.

Part of the problem is English football being on tv too much. If Scottish football highlights were on tv instead of MOTD there would be less Chelsea, Man U, Liverpool and Arsenal "fans" who are born and bred in the Aberdeen area.

Roger Mitchell's fault

That was his 51st for Aberdeen last night.  And was his 34th under Calderwood in 96 starts and 29 sub appearences.

Well dun tae the lad though
