  1. I wouldn't have been able to tell you until a couple of days ago. Daughter 2 was up from Glasgow with her boyfriend for the weekend. Like her, he's doing a Ph.D. but he's doing it through his employer and one of his bosses (possibly one of the owners) is MK, in some finance thing I don't understand. I forgot he existed until the boyfriend asked me if I remembered him, knowing I was AFC (he's a Parkhead ST).
  2. He said all the right things in his telly interview. But he said them in the wrong tone. Like smoking a cigarette and knowing it was part of a dud conspiracy, as J.B. Priestley said (wrote). Like he didn't really believe it. Time will tell.
  3. You quoted me but you got it wrong. You got confused. You thought I was talking about Wright. I wasn't. So you're not very bright. Or you made a mistake. As we all do. But not a fatal one. But maybe you're such an arse you can't admit it when you err? There's a LOT of people who consider admitting making mistakes as a sign of weakness. Ergo they're not too bright AND they are a total arse.
  4. Not only did you seek to muddy the debate by throwing in Scott Wright (and missing the various points completely), you obviously have faith in our football manager despite many years of nothing to justify your supreme faith in him. You were also cowardly in not tackling the poster head on that you had an issue with and addressing him directly, rather using my words presumably in an attempt to irk or ire. This (plus the consistency of your shite) makes me conclude that you, like Hansen, like McInness, are a knob. Have a good day. Have a good life. Knob. Before you ban me again. As you undoubtedly will, in your cowardly female way.
  5. You confused the debate. Like you always do. You jumped in to a conversation I was having with another about Bruce Anderson. You then went on about Wright's hat trick. That was not the hat trick I was speaking to him about. And as always, you can't read or think properly, you fail to back up your "arguments" and resort to insulting rhetoric. I don't speak to cunts who say "tickles me" or "it tickled me". That's gay-speak, not worthy of a man and not worthy of the North East. So take your confusion somewhere else. And "boner"? You're confusing sex and football now. You're the marketing men's dream. They use sex to sell cars and they know that the average joe is a thick piece of shit who doesn't have any critical thinking capacity whatsoever.
  6. I think the 30k a week for a teenager (when he started getting it) may be the reason his career is going nowhere. This may have killed his appetite to work hard and he may well be another with promise destined for the scrapheap.
  7. The worst thing was having to select a featured group. I had Tiger on the phone and Brooks on the iPad. It was only when the last group got to the 16th that it resembled normal coverage as we were able to pick the 16th, 17th and 18th featured holes option. The amount of adverts and the repeating of the same (Bethpage) advert every time you dared to use the phone for something else before getting back on the App was dreadful. Like the R & A selling the Open to Sky, the agenda of maximising immediate profits is diminishing the audience and killing the grass roots in the longer term. And to the other, yes I do have an HDMI cable but I don't download Apps to my MacBook and as I'm not on Facebook and detest the organisation, I chose not to stream it through my digital telly.
  8. You also missed the whole point about game time. Once a year for four seasons is telling a 20 year old something. A good manager inspires them and fills their head with belief following an excellent performance. Frank Ross scored a cracker when he came on as a sub, played him the next game then hooked him at HT. Never started again. How's that for management? Same old same old.
  9. You're confused. FYI Anderson scored a hat trick in the semi final.
  10. Who's "pinning hopes on him"? All I said is that he's more of a natural striker than Cosgrove and May. You disagree. Again, I ask, what's he lacking and what have these two useless cunts got that he hasn't?
  11. Promise in youth often turns to shit. Sometimes it's women and drink. Sometimes it's money. Other times it's billy big baws, thinking they've made it already. In these scenarios, they don't put in the workrate that highlighted their promise at an early age in the first place. Add in an ACL injury and there's no fucking chance.
  12. The bigger issue is McInnes mismanaging youth, another symptom of his mismanagement in general. Letting McLean cheat the fans (until he got a move in January) is the same mismanagement as letting McGinn continue to regress. He's a shadow of his potential, as is Stevie May. Logan and Reynolds were outstanding in their first seasons and both went backwards from the high standards they set themselves. Not only has McInnes recruited total shite, Zola being the worst signing ever, he mismanages what he has. Shinnie in midfield is an experiment that has hurt AFC. The club is not progressing. This may be as weak a Celtic as when Deila was in charge - thanks to the Rogers Lawwell split - and yet we are the least equipped to challenge for the title than we've ever been under McInnes. As for Scott Wright, he scores a hat trick and gets dropped. He then gets his next start the following season, months later at Hamilton and single handedly delivers us 3 points. And gets dropped again. For another long period. When he turned 20 years of age, he had played once a season for his first 4 years at AFC. If that isn't total mismanagement I don't know what is. Any "fan" who excuses the manager for this doesn't understand the devastating and demotivating effect on confidence and the power of the mind in high performance sport, and also can't see that McInnes has a mental block on promoting youth. Hansen said you don't win anything with kids. SAF proved him wrong. Like Hansen, McInnes is a knob, one who's afraid to take risks, a knob who is only interested in getting a wage, a charlatan who doesn't even try to win because he knows he can't, a scaredy cat who's record against the two biggest teams in the country shows him up for what he really is. You crack on with him as manager. I always had more ambition than he never had. Loser. He's fucking incapable and incompetent as a winner.
  13. When he scored a hat trick months ago, you didn't think he was "ready for the first team". What aspects of his game weren't up to scratch? And if he's still not ready, what have Cosgrove and May offered AFC this season that is superior? Only an idiot fails to recognise that a quality footballer can have a bad game. Strachan had many of them.
  14. Bruce Anderson is the only natural striker in the squad. Ony cunt who kens onythin aboot fitba can see this from 2 x subs appearances only. So what the fuck is that beardie cunt looking at week in week out that he doesn't start him? Fucking wank.

  16. You and millions of others. This is the lowest viewing audience of a major in living memory. They're wanting us to subscribe to 11 sports and pay £49 before we can screen mirror. They can fuck off. Watching it on the wife's iPad. Pain in the fucking arse. A fanny pad of a tournament from the coverage point of view.
  17. Until 2 bogeys in a row right now at 18 & 1, thus jeopardising the each way element.
  18. Tiger playing and putting so good. Rory putting so bad. Shaping up to be a very exciting major. Brookes is class.
  19. Download the tournament App for perfect coverage. Well, hardly "perfect". They don't allow us to screen mirror on to our tellies. Why do that? It wouldn't have cost them to allow it. Cunt Americans.
  20. Outstanding example. Nicks could've had the world. Best selling album. Blonde girl. Dreamy voice... but a total cunt. Something in those black eyes of hers screamed poison.
  21. In the post you deleted kitns, you said that Tiger would be more likely to win a major before Rory. After only 6 holes of 72 in the final major of 2018, I hope you didn't put money on that. Tiger is shocking.
  22. McIlroy has a brand new putter this week. Very good idea. If it's working, we don't fix it. If it's not working, the best initial intervention is a new weapon. A change is as good as a rest etc. but looking down on something new implicitly assists forgetting the past, one shot at a time being the most difficult mental challenge in golf. He's always been a streaky putter but his streaks of good putting have become increasingly less frequent these last 3 years. This change might be coming at exactly the right time, his last chance of a major for 8 months.
  23. +3 thru 6. Note to self: you should've learned by now. Dumbass mistake.
  24. It's quite remarkable how ugly Debbie Harry became in later life. The smack wouldn't have helped obviously but having been blessed with natural beauty, she's a fucking mess now. This is down to one thing only. Her thinking is ugly. She's quite obviously not a nice person. Every cunt wears their lives in their faces. Some cunt said that, canna mind who but it's bang on.
  25. Brilliantly articulated. That's the principal reason why I can't stand the man. People who play it safe and never see the boundaries of possibility far less try to go beyond them never achieve anything. My instinct has always been repelled by him and I knew we were total opposites. I just never fully appreciated why until your two simple words. Risk taking is necessary for progress. Making mistakes is good in the first decades of life. It's how we learn. He's been cowed by the prevailing culture, ergo he's a fud.
