Tyrant

Seen it all.

I'm nae going because I'll be lighting up the pitches at Strikers.

Fit's that, Mizer? FB Book is blocked at my work. And I'm not about to logon to Donstalk at home now, am I?

I was saying the other day (although I can't remember who to. Maybe myself?) that a transfer fee in the region of £25m - £30m would usually mean one of the world's top players was moving but these days this price tag is almost the norm and poorer and poorer players are going for silly sums. Don't get me wrong. I'm a fan of Fellaini and I do rate him but not for the guts of £30m. Then again if Bale is worth £85m (and he isn't) then maybe Fellaini is worth £28m (and he isn't).

Link doesn't work FFS sake KMG must go.

I'm sure the hope is to attract some investment from the Oil & Gas sector. Nae a bad idea.

I know Stokes' hairline is receding but I wouldn't call him bald. He is a twat though.

Didn't watch the game as I had to work but saw MOTD the Day 2. There was very little between the teams. Had Van Persie put away that chance he had at the end and the match had finished 1-1 no one could really have complained. Although he spent most of the game trying to start fights with everyone. Solid enough defensive display from Liverpool. I'm pleased for big Martin. Don't think one dodgy showing warranted being dropped for that long.

Oot.

Aye I wondered wtf the fuck that was all about. Hope it doesn't bite him on the arse.

That's what I've been saying for years. Tom telt me in no unclear way that I was wrong.

I'm only 28.

Seems odd. I'm all for the re-expansion of rail in the NE east but the only place we don't need a new station is next to the current one.

How can slaughtering an animal inspire a team? Fuck me, I think I actually want Celtic to go through. At least their pre match fanny huddle doesn't kill anything.

Well that rules out the possibility of me flying back fae my holiday for the game. Oot.

I trust the Celtic fans are also being investigated after similar behaviour at Pittodrie last weekend?

Dons to win on penalties.

We're in the next round. So mission accomplished. On the negative side we never looked like scoring and it looks like Flood will be out for the guts of 2 months FFS fuck sake. Not sure what happened to Hayes. On the positive side we never looked like missing a penalty. Definitely an aspect of Deek's management. The players looked confident and all the penalties were slotted away nicely. Almost as if we'd practised them. The crowd was a joke. We've been hounding the team for 18 years and won fuck all. It doesn't work. Change the fucking record eh. I was frustrated too. But getting on the players backs has a proven track record of doing no fucking good. One cunt in particular behind me was whinging like a fucking bairn before we'd even lost the ball in anticipation of losing the ball which we didn't lose. Made a right fanny of himself. And I'm not saying we should be cheering and singing whilst playing shite. (Although if it was up to me we would.) But booing every pass is embarrassing.

One has to wonder wtf the fuck Inverness had to do with anything.

That 2009 game was enough to put me off ever going back so there was no chance of me going to the 2010 game.

I watched the last 15 minutes I think. There or thereabouts. It was 1-1 when I started watching. Really good work rate from Cardiff and Frazier Campbell doing his old club a turn as well as his current one.

Apparently you want to go off the beaten track if you visit Venice. Everyone mentions how expensive the restaurants are in the touristy part of the place. I'm away to TK Maxx at lunch time to see about finally getting a decent case of my own to save me having to keep borrowing one. Nae this one though: http://www.tkmaxx.com/view-all-accessories/blue-hard-shell-spinner-suitcase/invt/10035979&bklist=icat,4,shop,1,1091

Like many people I've been thinking about this a lot. Particularly with it just being a matter of time before I'm sent offshore in one of these crafts. I work a company that has a helicopter ditch training facility up in Altens and hear often that paying the fee and turning up pretty much ensure you'll be certified as "trained" to deal with a situation like this. Folk turn up who can't swim or who can't speak a word of English but are mollycoddled through. I just hope that this hasn't cost anyone their lives on this occasion. I should point out that I've not seen this happening. But have heard many tales of the like happening. It's not good enough. If you can't fucking swim you should learn before you go offshore. It's not difficult. Doesn't everyone get swimming lessons at school? And putting a useless swimmer next to the instructor so they can pull them out if they struggle is fucking useless for preparing them for a real-life situation. Now although I know there's nothing to suggest that a lack of training caused deaths I feel my point about making sure offshore workers are fully prepared is a valid one. Safety is not an area where corners should ever be cut. What I did hear is that the chopper ditched very suddenly and that those on board apparently didn't even have time to brace. How factual this is I have no idea in all honesty. I hope they get to the bottom of this and I hope the heads roll that need to roll.

Sweet as a nut from Barry Nic.
