I'll say! It's only fair they get the lion's share of the prize money. They are, afterall, the winners & runners up. I'd like to see the breakdown for the season that Hearts finished 2nd. I'm pretty sure it'd be of the same ratio.

Nah. Sounds like something on your router. Is the router firewall on or off? What is the lease time on your DHCP server (another option within your router). If you can, try changing the lease time to "never"

Queen - Killer Queen

Don't think anybody here has pressed the panic button ... not in this thread, anyway! But the point about us "just turning up" is valid. That's why we've struggled all season against Hamilton, and is why we lost to Inverness and, more recently, Falkirk. The successful sides don't "just turn up". They take every single game seriously. Which is why you'll rarely see Celtic or Rangers lose more than 5 or 6 games in an entire season. They're focussed on beating all the teams below them. The big games tend to take care of themselves, but if you don't take care of the shite that's below you then you're always going to struggle to make a serious impact at the top end of the league. It's not something that Jimmy has caused. It's been evident at Aberdeen for over a decade and a half now ... see the likes of Skonta Riga, Stenhousemuir, Bohemians and the cup exit to QotS last season. I don't know what it is. But there's something that's existed at Aberdeen for fifteen years or so that has us believe that we are such a big club, we only need to turn up to the smaller grounds and we're guaranteed a win.

AC/DC - She's Got The Jack

Hae a lookey at http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Huawei/EchoLife-HG520s/EchoLife-HG520sindex.htm Talktalk does issue dynamic IP addresses to their customers. But your modem should be able to deal out static IP addresses locally (ie within yer household). With this in mind, depending on the way your modem handles port forwarding and access control, you might be able to statically assign IP addresses for your computer and your Xbox.

I heard it was Bolton who were looking at Diamond.

You should go into a Command Prompt (on Vista, I think it's Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt). In here, type "ipconfig /all" (note the space). This will provide you with ALL the details relating to your computer and connection's ip addresses and DNS servers and all that shit. What router are you using, min? I'll hae a lookey for you and give you a guide on how to set up all said requests. I've just done some tweaking on my router to get my 360 to work properly on it. I've basically ended up setting my Xbox as an "exposed host" (oo-err) on my router, which means the router is applying no filters, no firewalls, no port blocking, etc. And now my 360 is loving XBoxLive. As for your IPv4 and IPv6, you're probably best to just stick with entering the details into IPv4. IPv6 is the new standard of IP addresses, but all ISPs still use IPv4 and will do so for a good number of years to come yet. I've never had to adjust my IPv6 settings at all yet. As I say, let me know the make and model of your router, and I'll get the correct settings written up for ya.

It is directed at him. Dinnae ken fit the confusion is about. We've played the huns. A new member suddenly registers for the site and uses his only two bullets (or posts as we call them in the deep south) to slate JC and talk about chuggin in his chicken surprise. I thought, rather than ban this prick, I would speak my mind to him. Didnae think it was too difficult to comprehend, really.

Diamond. Without a doubt, Diamond should wear the armband. He's shown he's mature enough, and is certainly vocal enough to lead the club.

I did read the rest. My post still stands.

According to The Scotsman, Severin has rejected a new deal and there will be no improved offer. He's never really been overly-happy with his stay at Pittodrie, in my opinion. He pondered long and hard before signing his last contract extension and, to be fair, he's hardly been captain-fantastic (throwing tantrums when Walker got the Bayern shirt that he wanted). When he's on-form, he's brilliant. But he suffers a bit from inconsistency. Mind you, I think there's something in the air at Aberdeen as just about every player that plays for the club suffers from inconsistency. Time for a new challenge for Seve, I think. So, replacements? http://sport.scotsman.com/football/Severin-poised-for-Dons-exit.4915041.jp

Talking about punts ... did anyone else notice the distance Bossu was gettin on his kicks? Like, touching down 3/4 up the other end of the park! At least there's something good about him. I cannae be too harsh on him, he wasnae that bad really. He had two wobbly moments, iirc. He let the ball go after tripping over Foster. And he also completely missed a shot fae the huns that went past him, ricochet off someone else and then bounced off Bossu's back. Fortunately, our defence was pretty on to it for the entire game and managed to deal with both dangers with relative ease. But aside from these two blunders, he was alright. Certainly more comfortable about him being backup to Langfield than I was before Saturday's match.

KLF - What Time Is Love

10 or so steps? I think Edmund Hilary had an easier job climbing Everest that we do getting up the Y !!

I get your points, I suppose ... now that I think about it. TV picks only really picks up what's happening immediately around the ball, with only the occasional glance at what's happening elsewhere. Being at the game, you can sit and watch Leon Mike all day and realise just how lazy he is!! They call it asthma. I call it too many pies. But there's narrowminded people who fail to realise that the wonders of modern technology mean that I can sit in my living room at 2am on a Sunday morning in New Zealand, sipping a hideously strong rum & coke (cannae really call it that, cos there was hardly any coke in it), watching the game that was being streamed live fae my PC to my TV. Some people think if ye werenae there, bedecked in yer christmas tree dons outfit (hat, scarf, replica shirt, socks and pants), ye've got no right to talk about what went on in the game.

What danger do fans on the Y pose to anyone? Out of sight of the kiddies in the Merkland, so "inappropriate behaviour" is not the reason. Over half a pitch-length away from the opposition fans, so "intimidation" is not an excuse either. Nobody sits on the Y, so "damage of stadium property" is out of the question too. Seems to me the polis simply see the Y as a section full of "likely lads", so decide to pick on them. Is John Morgan still head of Pittodrie security? I very much doubt it after the shambles on the Y that Jager reports. Morgan was always pretty fair with his security measures at Pittodrie.

And yet you made it for him? Class! I'm guessing that if you say "I work in the kitchen" then you ain't the chef. I'd probably say you're the dumb cunt who washes dishes and, when there's an order, you have to leave the dishes alone whilst you scoop two balls of ice-cream and make pretty patterns with the strawberry sauce. Maybe if you spent a little less time concentrating on who is actually in the restaurant and a little bit more time actually preparing your food, you might actually be able to do something with this thing you call a life. Let's face it, a dish-hand is just a glorified bin-man. You still get paid to scrape away the shit that other people can't stomach.

Same way Rod Wallace didn't even get a mention for finishing Jim Leighton's career 87minutes early. Hang on, didn't the same thing happen when Sally McMoist smashed Snelders cheekbone into a gazillion pieces in 1991? Common factor here? The huns get off completely scot-free for taking out THREE of our influential keepers when it's clear that skill alone is not enough to beat us.

Remember, our pre-split matches against the Old Firm are out of the way. Hearts and United still have to play the Old Firm, so there's every chance that we can be third at the split.

Doesn't matter who says this, this is a saying that really pisses me off. The game was a lunchtime kickoff for a reason ... it was a live tv game! Nae getting at you in particular Aberdeen_Ladette. But some people seem to think that not being at the game gives you absolutely no right to make comment on any of the day's proceedings.

Bob Marley - No Woman No Cry

Won't be missed, tbh

Game was boring until the last 15 mins. Bit of a midfield battle, tbh. In typical Rangers fashion, too ... they couldnae win it by legitimate reasons so they go and crock our first-choice keeper. Fuckin hun fucks! I thought for them, Ferguson made some defence-splitting passes and Homo was unlucky not to score. But Kenny Miller was laughable, and just about everything Bhouggerra (sp) kicked went into the upper RDS. For us, Lee Miller worked his socks off, but was a victim of being very tightly man-marked for the entireity of the game. Foster was a complete liability. Seve impressed me, as did Mulgrew. I thought Diamond had a very very solid game at the back and Bossu had a couple of shaky moments (dropping the ball after falling over Foster, eg!) but was relatively comfortable in goals after Langfield's face got ripped open by Kenny Miller. Kerr and McDonald looked excellent in midfield. McCulloch should've been booked for gouging McDonald's eye, but McDonald got his own back with a crunching knees-in-the-back challenge on McCulloch just moments later All in all, especially since we had about three chances all day, a point taken from this match is a good result. Just hope United & Hearts don't win so that we can stay in 3rd ... although with them playing Helen Mirren and Caley respectively, I probably expect us to drop to 5th by the end of today.

I mind me and Alfrom headed straight back down to Edinburgh after the game, and straight into our local. Typical, there was a Tim there saying "oh were you at the game? And I suppose you were one of them funny people who wiz throwin snowbaws at wur players". Typical Tim had to complain about something. Couldnt moan that his team had been horsed at the Pitt, so he complained that the snabaz had stones and metal in them. IT'S SNOW! Anybody would think it was shards of glass we were chucking at Petrov and Thompson. Whinging paranoid fake-irish fuckers.
