  1. Here we go again. I think someone in the know, maybe an ambitious fellow , needs to define what they think AFC can achiveve rather than making a list of problems. Let's get that on the table then we can discuss relative performance.
  2. A quick google shows it is indeed plumb the depths. Fishing terminology apparently. Me not knowing that is good.
  3. Isn't it plum the depths, as in plummet? Or I missing some kind of Super Mario in-joke?
  4. I just finished Christopher Brookmyre, one fine day in the middle of the night. He's a laugh out loud author and I'll be reading the rest of his work ASAP. Since I had nothing else I'm digging Kerouac's On The Road, again, Ah mmm.

    It's a bit fey though.
  6. We have a good record against Buchan teams this year. Broch Team Sheet 1. Rory Duncan 2. Gary Buchan 3. Harry Buchan 4. Jim Duncan 5. Billy Buchan 6. Duncan Buchan 7. Billy Duncan 8. Buchan Duncan 9. Duncan Duncan 10. Duncan McBuchan 11. Levi Smith
  7. Just started Michael Palin 1969-1979; The Python Years. It's basically his diary and gives a great insight into his life, his thoughts on his colleagues and the drfiting apart of the group. As with anything he does, I'm left thinking he's clever, funny and a thoroughly nice bloke.

  9. It's becoming tedious.
  10. Yes, that's an argument against it.
  11. 1. Willie Miller I found it impossible to exclude him on any criteria. He's our most successful captain, the heartbeat of our best side, arguably the best side in Europe for a couple of years. I don't know if my judgement is clouded because I was so young but I remember him winning games by sheer willpower, the definition of leading by example. 2. Scott Severin Whilst many would argue he doesn't deserve to be mentioned on the same page as Miller he was a statement of intent by the new management team. Very important because we were going nowhere. Currently vastly underestimated by many of our supporters. 3. Charlie Nic Couple of points, he was a fantastic player and I think it shows the quality of Scottish football at the time that he has only 20 odd caps. That's not why I chose him. Were our current Chairman to read this I would ask him to look back and find out what signing Nicholas did for attendance figures and for the general interest around the club. I could draw a comparison, to a lesser extent, with the reaction to Aluko. I think it,a safe to say players like Nicholas out bums on seats and is a strong argument for the idea of speculate to accumulate.

    No but a racquet would come in handy.
  14. Fuck me, that's depraved.

  16. More out than in? Bertrand Bossu - Derek Soutar Sammy Stewart - Josh Walker Gary McDonald - Barry Nicholson Charlie Mulgrew - Richie Byrne Mark Kerr - Karim Touzani Tommy Wright - Steve Lovell Jared Hodgkiss - Alan Maybury Sone Aluko - Sone Aluko That leaves us having not replaced Dan Smith... We're fucked.
  17. FFS, how can Jimmy go to Mallorca with a clear conscience. Oops, wrong site.
  18. I've just finished Ghost by Robert Harris. As usual he doesn't disappoint. If you want 40 pizzas and 10 taxis at 3am PM your address.
  19. Small tip, check spelling when being pompous.
  20. I blame the parents and tartazine.
