  1. Very much this. It's enough to put you off watching games when you know certain referees minds have been made up even before a ball has been kicked. Oh and having competent people run the game. SFA / SPFL are a complete oxygen thieves.
  2. Still some train tickets left for the "football Special" according to ScotRail.
  3. I thought when you dream it is because you are not in a deep sleep? I usually feel knackered after saving the world from idiocy and scoring the winner at Ibrox.
  4. Doubt there would be the same anti-liverpool sentiment if he wasn't. Not that I needed any further reasons to dislike them.
  5. Don't have rieslings very often but they don't get the credit they deserve.

    So he's finally got back to me, although again, unsure if they will show it but they are all British / irish themed pubs that show football so worth contacting: The Hub http://www.timeout.com/tokyo/bars-and-pubs/hub-yokohama-west#tab_panel_2 http://www.eok.jp/restaurants-bars/pub/british/hub-yokohama-tsuruyacho The green sheep https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g298173-d1222045-Reviews-The_Green_Sheep-Yokohama_Kanagawa_Prefecture_Kanto.html The Tavern http://www.the-tavern.com/
  7. Very good point and probably one that gets forgotten all too often. What a difference compared to the previous regime. Albeit post ward was utterly depressing and should have been predicted by him and others.
  8. Certainly not embarrassing for us or Morton, I think you got my point though stupie. Spfl /SFA should have a look at themselves, but they won't because they have TV money. It's a cup semi, I wish I was going, last semi I went to was ace seems to be a busy time of year for a lot of folk which is understandable but I can't help but agree with Hebrews point. Had it been the huns 2.0 we'd have sold a 20k allocation no bother.
  9. Sounds like Morton have sold 5k, so that's 15,000 in a 55,000 capacity stadium. Awesome.
  10. Seems to be playing much better of late. Don't want to detract away from the topic but bar his silly mistake which nearly cost us, he played well. Seems to be a confidence player and hopefully it's improving.
  11. A mate was telling me about this last night, going to give it a watch on the weekend
  12. That's always the first concern
  13. Athens was really nice, but stiflingly hot I thought! Walking up the acropolis felt like walking to my own grave. Been to Paros and Naxos myself, both very nice islands. The latter being very popular with ze germans but plenty of nice food and beaches. Heard lots of good things about Montenegro, would love to go before the world ends.
  14. Did he actually say that Griffiths was too small?!? coming from him?!? Who plays Barry fucking Bannan?!?! Jesus wept.
  15. If you've got the time to do it, it's worth it. Buying fresh pasta is equally as good
  16. Do love a spag bol!
  17. Thought it was a terrible game. Plenty of endeavour but the quality wasn't there. De gea made some good saves though.
  18. Anyone watching the Liverpool - United game tonight? Think it might be a bit of a humbling for United. Liverpool are playing well at the moment
  19. Nearly 10,000 tickets sold by lunch time apparently. Would love it to be a bigger crowd but can't see it.

    WW3

    I agree, this is more where my thoughts are at the moment. That's not to say WW3 won't happen for the reasons outlined by others, but I think that would have to be when China get involved. Whilst the media do peddle this anti Russian agenda, I don't believe for a second it isn't true. It is however, a diversion tactic away from the horrors that our own governments carry out and unfortunately it works most of the time. It's amazing that the Yemen conflict hasn't had as much coverage as it should have. The saudis really are cunts, but its ok, we sell them weapons... All that being said, it does worry me. 2/3 super powers are itching for a fight, the Chinese, well they're flexing their muscles at the moment but a lot of economies are on the wane. A good war always sorts that out...
  21. Ach, she's nice enough!
  22. Think if one of them were to make it, it would be Smith. I've seen more from him than I've ever seen in Shankland. But as time goes on, I can't see either making the grade
  23. Aye, I saw it on the RedTV highlights but wasn't conclusive because of the camera views available, seemed tight.
  24. Amongst others, was drinking this last night. Mighty fine bottle of wine, always love a white Rioja. Needless to say, because I was daft and mixing beer / red / White I feel like death today.
  25. Will be able to view via the usual vpn means:
