  1. Never mind that they're not allowed to sign anyone until next Christmas. Funny how the S-hun story starts off by saying why this couldn't possibly happen, then goes on to print it anyway. Fuck that tapping-up shiterag of a newspaper, fuck Rangers, and especially fuck Traynor whose greasy pawprints are all over this, cunt that he is.
  2. If we're going to have a 'Celeb Deaths' style game, I call Noel Edmonds Pete Waterman Uri Geller John McCririck
  3. Thoroughly unsurprised, and not in the slightest bit concerned. Enjoy Woking, Ryan. Next?...
  4. The truth is that nobody really knows all of the pitfalls and benefits until it's actually been done in practice. Give it a try for a couple of competitions, and if it turns out to be shite, they can go back to the old model, no harm, no foul. Instinctively I quite like the sound of the idea.
  5. That's an utterly contemptible article, full of hear-say and insinuation about Stokes that can barely be called journalism, and certainly offers no benefit or genuine insight to anyone reading it. The only demonstrable fact about him is that one of his long term friends was a widely understood to be a notoriously unpleasant person. Edit : To be clear I'm not denying that Anthony Stokes is, in all likelihood, a real nasty piece of work. Just saying that is a terrible piece of journalism.
  6. I remember at the final, it was before drinking on the street was banned in Glasgow, and a whole bunch of Dundee and Aberdeen fans were quite happily drinking together on the grassy bank (if memory serves, near to where ASDA is now) which was the last place you could have booze before the stadium. This wee ned in his vauxhall nova (or similar) with ridiculously oversized spoiler and exhaust got stuck in traffic, right in front of the crowd. Presumably having forgotten what day it was, he had decided to wear his rangers (remember them?) top, and when the crowd spotted this, an extremely localised shower of half-empty beer cans formed on the bonnet and roof of his car. The best part was there was absolutely nothing he could do but sit and take it until the traffic loosened up enough and he could pull a three pointer and speed away. Two cops came slowly walking down from the stadium, with the air of not really being arsed doing anything about it, but by the time they got there it was all over and everybody had assumed an innocent look of "who us? Nah, wouldn't hurt a fly, mate. Look, we're even sitting drinking with the other lot." That was a chuckle.
  7. On cue: "Nae chunce for Scotland"
  8. Cues for Scotland.
  9. As awful as this seems, consider the source. www.pissingonthedead.jingo.co.uk I wouldn't give credence to a single word from that fucking rag.
  10. Couldn't. Give. A. Shit.
  11. Give over. Season after season, club officials have been getting slammed on here for not showing enough ambition in their rhetoric. (Aiming to be a top-six team, yada yada yada). From Craig Brown's comments after the match, it seems to me that we really need to get past the mentality of assuming Celtic are better than us. They may have more resources and (arugably, although I'd dispute this) some better players, but they're still just another football club, only 4 points ahead of us. One thing they do execptionally well is to create the impression that they're some massive untouchable institution, and thus have teams play into their hands by showing far too much respect. It's all just smoke and mirrors. We absolutely (still) can win the league, and this mentality needs to get drummed into the players at every opportunity. More of the same please, George.
  12. Fucking cheer up. Jeezo.
  13. Come again? When (and, for the love of fuck, why) did Aberdeen do that?
  14. Wow. What a total clusterfuck of a proposal. How Longmuir, Regan and Cockwomble didn't all get their jotters in the summer is beyond me, but surely with crap like this it's only a matter of time before the clubs lose patience and oust the leadership of the three governing bodies, not one useful or helpful thing having issued forth from any of them.
  15. I fear change
  16. I might be wrong, but I thought that a charge of defamation required that there be a reasonable chance that the slander be taken seriously by some audience. David Icke also claimed that humans are collectively controlled by lizards that live on a spaceship behind the moon.
  17. Could be interesting to see whether he might change his mind if we do well this season.

  19. Peter Herbert is a publicity seeking idiot. I hope his nuisance 'reporting' of all this petty shite is ultimately treated with the disdain it deserves. Unfortunately, given footballing authorities' historic record of screwing the pooch when it come to the application of common sense, it really is more hope than expectation.
  20. I stay in Wellington, NZ, but there's an Aberdeen woman in my (fairly small, about 10-strong) team of workmates who gave me this film to watch... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1289420/ It's a pile of pish, relying on the fact that it's in Doric to hold any humour at all, but John Hewitt has a 5-second cameo as a juror near the end. Anyway, Don't bother watching it. It's shite. If you want to see John Hewitt, watch this instead.
  21. Do you think it dates back to 1991? They might have to replay the tennants sixes final.
  22. R.I.P. Michael Marra.
  23. London is a shithole. True story.
  24. Nope. You need to be resident in Scotland.
