  1. On a serious note, it's probably the right move for him and as Reidzer said, he's shown loyalty and certainly leaves with my best wishes. Given how little he's played over the past couple of years, we won't really miss him but will certainly need to replace him. I just hope this is an isolated incident and the others all sign up.
  2. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39167361 You'd have to be a complete nut job (or hun, but still applies) to apply or even accept a job there. Southampton, stable, progressive club going in the right direction, or some no mark deadbeat club living off it's former club's name. Pass.
  3. So Motherwell visit us again on Saturday, fully expect a much changed 'well side following, Y'Know's, removal as manager. They had a decent away victory to fellow potential relegation candidates, Killie, last weekend so should be fired up and will certainly want to avenge the previous humiliation. We seem to be dominating teams at the moment but unlike the previous game, unable to turn them into goals. There is no way it'll be the same result as last time but I expect us to win. Yes we're missing Jack, but the rest of the team should be more than capable to step up. Shinnie certainly took the captaincy with both hands last week. Do we rest Rooney, who despite his apparent poor form, is still our leading goal scorer by some distance? I'll be interested to see how DM sets up for this one. I really hope PeePaw ends the season on the high with us. Out House Rugby Dinner somewhere in town 2-0 dons, Stockley and McGinn
  4. His departure will be met by frustration imo. He clearly has the skills but couldn't use them or execute them consistently enough. Good luck to him, just a shame it's to MK Dons. Pricks. As you say DD, here's to him scoring the winning goal in the cup final
  5. Well that's it confirmed he's likely to be offski: https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/aberdeen-fc/aberdeen-boss-mcinnes-confirms-peter-pawlett-set-to-move-to-mk-dons
  6. Thats what ED said when I told him it was the sun
  7. Scottish sun reporting peepaw signing a pre contract with MK Dons
  8. Sort of seem to be giving a bit of fight tonight. But getting taught a lesson by bayern although harshly done by by not getting a penalty in the first half and getting koscielny sent off. Odd where the numpty behind the goal overruled the referee.
  9. Apparently the Times ran a piece about this in the English edition, but not the Scottish. Can't say I saw it down here but hey ho. A good rebuttal nonetheless despite not necessarily agreeing with it all: http://terracepodcast.net/whats-the-point-in-scottish-football/
  10. cheers, will have a look when I get home
  11. Chrome? This is the message it comes up with:

  15. http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/brexit-europe-cornwall-funding-deserved-sneering-condescending-remainer-explode-a7612266.html Interesting article and it was obvious that the folk in Cornwall were the first to buy into all the lies. It's going to be a tough few decades for Cornwall. I remember my girlfriend going into a handbag shop in St. Ives and she asked how she was going to cope with brexit. The shop lady said it wouldn't make a difference, to which my g/f said, but you get all your handbags from Italy...Oh, replied the shop keeper...I hadn't thought of that...Cornwall has always heavily relied on EU funding. Politics these days is so divisive, same happened in Scotland with the indyref and the same has obviously happened in trumptown with both sides firing shots left right and centre. I find it incredulous that brexiteers state it's not right that those "remoaners" voice their dismay and frankly laugh at those who voted wrongly. Obviously I'm not saying either campaign was great, because it wasn't and reflected the stupidity of society today, but fuck me, this is a shite state of affairs. How do we fix it? Scotland has an option, not sure about the rest of the UK. Lambs to a slaughter.
  16. Not sure why but I've never warmed to her. I always like nemone who stands in for her on the school holidays. But I think it's more to do with her music taste than anything else. Nemone is more on the lines of what I like.
  17. Obviously not ours, but this is quite progressive for the US! MLS side Orlando City have opened their new stadium, which has a safe standing area and a special section for fans wanting to use flares at matches. (Daily Mail)
  18. I guess we would never have to worry about it being moved for TV given we're competing with the bigot fest on Sunday. Surprised they've made it a 3pm for them. Plenty of time for drinking and fighting. Nice sensible time for our travelling fans for change
  19. I had noticed that before and had been meaning to tell you! Usually goes on to Auto as default. Anyone know whether it's true that we oversold the jags allocation? Some lady on twitter is saying they were all forced into a section of 600? Would appear to be odd...

    Films

    My girlfriend has bought me the book, says I have to read it before we watch the film. Have you read it? Like the look of the film anyway!
  22. We said the same last season though...I was gutted for them that they didn't do it. Will be interesting to see how much of the team remains in tact once he goes. If I was an Arsenal fan, i'd rather keep Sanchez over Ozil. But they may be facing a future without either.
  23. Sounds like Sanchez and Arsenal are done. Lots of talk of a training ground bust up hence why he didn't start against the red shite. Arsenal are sinking, and sinking fast it would seem. I would be very pleased for Spurs if they finally finished above them.
  24. match the war chest, obvs Fuck knows where they got that valuation, wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if it was that fud that put the figure out there to see if Ashley would bite and save him his money
