It's cooncil owned.

Correct. It isn't worse. This is much worse than a terrorist attack. It's so easy for the government to go through the macho "end human rights" bullshit routine every time some muslim decides to murder some folks because they've got their scapegoat. Yet the one area that they can simply regulate, produce laws for, they are ideologically opposed to doing. Because of money. The worst thing about it that most Tory voters (especially those in NE) don't realise that that's what they are voting for. It's a choice whether you give a shite or not.

Fucking horrendous like. Dispensable people, whose repeated concerns surrounding fire safety were ignored. Be interesting to see if the flat gets re-built, or will they take the opportunity to move poor people out of the area? How can it happen in London in the 21st century?

Horrible news in London today, really sad. Tim Farron has quit as Lib Dem leader.

Nae an insult, just something I thought you wid hate. I pictured you screaming "fucking virtual fuckin fitba" at yer screen.

Adams is a weirdo. Not sure the players will like him. I'd expect better than him. Agreed that we need someone who understands our current playing style and can adopt this but improve on things like substitutions and squad rotation. McInnes was good, but wasn't without his faults. Hopefully we have the backroom staff in place that can talk any new manager through the existing setup and highlight some of the areas for improvement. We don't need wholesale changes like we did when Deek arrived, we just need to build on what's there as well as get a few more players through the door. We need to take a leaf out of the book of St Johnstone or the Tims who don't seem to generally experience a massive raft of changes as they move from manager to manager. Let's get someone that fits our fitba strategy and not the other way round.

Good article in the chick-pea snorting, sheepskin wearing lefty wank-rag today regarding the rise of online gaming in fitba. One I expect Donsdaft will be fully subscribed to. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/jun/14/hashtag-united-virtual-gamers-striking-rich-sport-2-0

Welcome aboard, I'm Rico, I like to be a dick about the slightest thing.

When he suggested you were pished, I assumed he was talking about your ability to ignore the two threads already on this subject and your decision to create a new one.

I just made a veggie version and it was pretty fine like. Replaced most of the ingredients in the recipe like, but I did put it in the oven for an hour as you suggested.

Listening to the Sunderland reporter dude on BBC on the way home, it sounds like Sunderland are fucked. Not quite sure what McInnes is thinking if he joins them. They're expecting 25-30M for their 'keeper but none of it being made available to the manager. Sounds like he's on a hiding to nothing there. If he does go though, fit's the chances he'll take Lewis now that they've ditched their goalie?

So we should re-appoint McGhee?

Good stuff. I'd take Black then. Intelligent guy, good experience.

Yep, that was my impression too, but I seem to remember others thinking - and perhaps it was surrounding his (lack of) support for Cummings - that he could/should have challenged Milne for chairmanship of the club. I suspect that that was never his intention and not really something for others to judge him on.

"Other" is doing exceptionally well in the vote. I'm not really sure what he brings to the table if I'm honest.

Fa's Boab Coyle? I liked McLeish as Scotland manager, but he can just take that back when Strachan goes and that'd be fine. Don't wish him ill as he's a nice guy and a legend (and also didn't pursue the recent hun vacancy), but I think him being at the dons would be too contentious for some and he'd be on a hiding to nothing from day one. Black I'd have, if it wasn't for the recent bribe scandal. A shame, as he speaks intelligently and I think he could have been a decent option. He'd be the equivalent of employing Malkay Mckay, and only a fucking idiot would do that. I'd go for Jack Ross in the above list.

Aye, fit 100AK said, that's fit I remember. Cummings didn't/doesn't like Milne. Also a software man as it turns out. Cormack was portrayed as being all hat and no cock by some at the time. Basically, I think, for not calling Milne out.

Nice one. Good spot.

It's okay, I'll provide the link that should have accompanied the starting of a new thread. Just as well some of us about board etiquette. Although, I expect there's a thread somewhere fae 2002 that could have been resurrected. http://www.afc.co.uk/news/9690.php#.WT-simgrLZs

From what? Any links anyone?

Aye, decent guy, with a good intelligent attitude. Fit's the deal like, is he investing?

Jacque Fresco deed. Must have missed it, seems it was a few weeks ago. Top work on the Venus project.

I'd love to see the results from your passionometer

I have a wee problem with this. Much like the huge over-stating that goes on around the "Old Firm" games, I think the Scotland v England game is being hugely over-stated here (by you!). I think it's very much a fixture of the past, and has lost most of its appeal due to the stagnation of Scotland (and to an extent, England) over the last 20 years. I suspect few people outwith the British Isles give a fuck about it either, whereas it probably used to get a lot of attention due to the quality of player on show from both sides. Same as the old firm shite, I don't believe in dragging up the past to support a current argument, the fixture simply isn't one of the greatest fixtures in the world. In fact, it's probably no greater a rivalry now than that of the other two teams in our group: Slovenia and Slovakia. Spain v Portugal, France v Belgium, Germany v Holland, Brazil v Argentina etc etc are all miles bigger fixtures these days. We're probably akin to something like Northern v Republic Ireland in terms of quality of fixture. That's not to stay it isn't important to Scotland, however, I was more excited about the recent Poland and Germany games than I was the Engurland one (although I was at those, which helped). Similarly when we played Spain under Levein. I think clinging to games like the England one takes away from our overall goal for tournament qualification. The glorious failures (not that Saturday was failure) and occasional great performances against the bigger sides aren't something I can get excited about. I attended the Lithuania game at the start of the qualification with the intention of going to most of the games this campaign, but was appalled by the attitude of the management. Those are the games that are more important to me.

Stewart has skill, creativity and can play fitba. Storey never had any of those abilities.
