Absolutely the best player I will ever see play for the Dons, and one of the best I've ever seen in the flesh. Too many are quick to rubbish Willie due to his failed businesses, and (ill-Founded) purported dourness; but never forget what he did for the Dons, and how he stayed his whole career here when he could have played for any team in the world. His one mistake was sitting in the dug out as an assistant when he should have headed off to learn his managerial trade. Nevertheless, Mr Aberdeen. All the best Willie.

...and then those possible 59 SNP seats become 9, 10 maybe 15 if we're lucky. The SNP are tied to Liebour, and Liebour are tied to the SNP, indeed from the very next morning they've been backpeddling from their clearly nonsensical "I won't do a deal" pish.

What arrogance? I'm struggling to see what you mean? If you're referring to the claim that they will be the third biggest party, then that's almost certain. After last night, the arrogance once again of Cameron claiming he's there to win a majority, Milliband saying the same plus he won't do a deal with anyone. Not once in any of the recent programmes has either of these answered the straightforward question, 'who will you form an alliance/coalition with'? It was about the only thing Clegg got right last night when making comment on the idiocy of still clinging to that stance.

There are two regular attacks on the SNP over this that just have banging my head agaisnt the wal. The first is the above. So how many jobs would £100bn create exactly? Jesus christ. I'd love to see amount spent versus job created, figure would be astronomical. Second is the armed forces one - the SNP dont want to support the armed forces. From what I've seen, they do, but more importantly we've gone through years of our armed forces being cut by both shades of Tory, again, how many soldiers could we put back in the forces if we spent hat £100bn there instead of on one submarine.

Your humility, and indeed good grace in deigning to mix with us is both appreciated and applauded. God bless you Rico, if only there were more like you

what is a flat white?

Quite right Phoen, I have quite a wardrobe of "cerise" golf shirts, and white golf troos, but "latte" is nothing but poofery, as indeed is calling stuff "poovery" with a v, instead of poofery with a la-tay. just sayin.

If this season has proved anything, it's that league re-construction is NOT needed. For the first time I can ever remember, I've actually paid attention to the first division (oops sorry championship cos the guffs call it that). Yes I admit this is largely schadenfreude with regards to Sevco, but without them there'd still have been the whole Edinburgh derby thing going on. Smaller leagues would lose that. It's fine as is, the split isnt perfect, but it creates interest where there'd be none. People too young to know better don't understand why the old two league syetmn was abandoned, it was done so in an era where apeing the guffs wasn't a pre-requisite, and they were even more right now, don't copy the guffs, their marketing is second to none, it doesn't mean their model fits ours, especially in a much smaller country.

Utd as pish as expected. Ref as pish as we've come to expect. Disappointing that we can't bury a team so far below us on current form yet again.

Missed the last couple of home games, so first experience of the fan driven initiative. Well done to the lads above me in the RDS, continued the whole game, and totally changed the sweetie rustler experience. I detest the upper RDS, least fave stand in the ground, but more power to your vocal chords lads, keep it up.

Well, Ed Miliband isn't in "Scottish" labour (LOL) so we canna vote for him either

Rome is 100% pencilled in for July, and considering Cuba in late autumn before the Yanks ruin it. I'm getting quite adventurous in my post-kids, post-divorce years.

Fit? I mean fit? Fit the fuck ye spikkin aboot? Coffee is either black, or white, it can have sugar, or not. This utter poncery you get nowadays is nothing but an excuse to charge £4.75 for something that costs 10p. And don't get me started on asking for a white coffee, and getting force fed hot milk.

Gotta thank off the ball just now for suggesting my favourite - the re-naming of the leagues to mirror the guffy leagues - the very leagues that are the most damaging to Scotland, and from which we should be looking to differentiate ourselves completely, not cosy up and hide behind their shadow.

I do think the author is looking for a villian that isn't there. Yes apparently the chairman could rival reo stakis for his use of matches, but, he could have set light to the stadium any time during the week, not at the point where the ground was at its busiest. According to both fire and insurance companies, there was a fag end dropped through the stands onto rubbish, if the chairman had a stooge, be just about last out of the ground at the final whistle, and drop the fag end then. As someone who lives next door to a conspiracy theorist nutjob, I just dont see it. If true, he'd progressed from alleged arsonist to alleged mass murderer. Dinna hink so.

Budge (and Leanne Dempster) need to be backed to the hilt on this. Neil "Ratner" Doncaster should have gone after "armageddon", this is yet another in a long series of utter garbage from a guy who hasn't a clue.

Kinda agree with rocket here phoen min, initially I thought you were going to talk about breakfast oats, you then veered wildly into the minutiae of minutes. it's nae yer best topic I have to say.

True, but for sports like athletics and swimming, this is their ultimate showcase. Football, tennis, golf etc already have their own thing, there's no need at all to be encroaching on the Olympics.

Aye superb top half, all Perth and north apart from the minks. Prefer Utd cos they're pish now & ICT away because they will just park the bus at pittodrie, and the other three at home, Tims obviously, and Dundee/StJ as they'd be tricky aways. Not sure getting the Tims first is a good idea, if we don't beat them it's over, I'd prefer them second last, with us still to go to Tannadice, and them still to go to ICT. Still, just glad it's still alive. A marathon has now become a sprint.

Tories launch their manifesto against a backdrop of "The Party for the working man". Ye couldna mak it up

W.T.F?

In / out: Out Pre matcher: Golf Match: Nowhere Local only has Sky Sports, I dinna hae BT sport. fuck. Radio Scotland I suppose Post matcher: Garlogie watching the Masters Prediction: 1-0 Dons, Rooney.

Surely it's a bit of both? 1. We used to die very young, so cancer which is generally a disease that comes with age, would be much less prevalent? 2. Would anyone have known what it was centuries ago? Did we just "die" and that was it. Did physicians, for what they were, really know that much back then?

Oh min aye, like OAP scouse birds on the loose abroad. Dirty hussies
