May as well chuck this in here, as it relates more to old c*nts than the young hipsters who drink more hipster pish, but whilst in the Grill last night, I was told that McEwans has been discontinued through Keg, so no more pints of heavy in a pub or black and tans, which apparently is a big thing amongst students!!!! I know its not as popular as it once was and rare to find pubs that serve it nowadays, but still love a pint of it. I don't mind a can at home, but can't beat getting a pint of it in a pub. The only place I know of that still kept it on draught were The Grill, Bridge Bar and the Butchers Arms. Likely be others, but not sure. The barman that told me said he told an old guy, who had drunk it all his life and the guy had tears in his eyes. Poor sod.

My Wife just said they are looking to cancel short haul UK flights, to save on fuel. Could just be made up shyte posted on Facebook, which she uses and not a reliable sourse of accurate news. Ordinarily I wouldn't give a shyte, but for the first time in my life, I am using a short haul flight to go to Manchester for a concert next month. We could do it by car, but I'd rather not. First world problems and all that, but still a ball ache. Unklike our politicians I can't blame Iran for this. They might be c*nts, but they weren't the ones who started all this and as for the orange zoomer in the US, words really fail me. Even the yanks who support him must be thinking WTF is going on.

I guess they're my local Highland League team now. My Highland League loyalties remain with the Lilywhites though.

Was at the Tivoli tonight, to see Danny Baker. A superb show once again and some of the stories he tells can only be heard in person. Three hours on stage and he would likely still be going if it wasn't for the curfew. I for one would have happily heard more.

Invergordon to be admitted to the Highland League to replace Brechin City who are moving to the Lowland League assuming they don't win promotion to League 2 via the playoffs. Welcome to the league Invergordon F.C.

Fingers crossed Hickey and Paterson both go though Paterson did not seem to have that impetus to get forward and burst of pace we have seen from him before n dark blue those last two games (albeit I did only see bits and pieces of the IC game). Hickey is due back for Brentford after this international break so hopefully he will be back up to speed come June. Thoughts on this from John McGlynn re Calvin Miller other than the obvious "it's not going to happen"? There's no question he's had a very strong season and you could make a strong argument he has made far more of a claim than Curtis. Right now I would certainly take him over Conway or Hirst 2bh.

I've just paid £1.55 at Shell - Tesco had none was closed wtaf

Filled up with unleaded yesterday morning @ £1.43 per litre. Just checked on the Petrol Price App I use and cheapest locally is now £1.47 per litre Cheapest diesel locally is £1.76 per litre

Yeah full time although not when it's in the garage, which is more often than not these days.

The last rocket on this forum turned out to be a bell end

Full time? That sounds exciting. I'm considering buying a rocket. There seems to be plenty of fuel available for those that travel in them.

I think diesel will soon be above £2/l if it isn't already. I live in a diesel motorhome and usually head off somewhere for the easter long weekend. Won't be doing that this weekend at these prices.

Clydebank have to go to Linlithgow a week on Saturday so both of those teams still have it in their own hands.

I spoke too soon maybe. Less than 1/4 tank left so popped by on way home yesterday and neither of the petrol stations near us had any proper petrol or diesel. Even if they did, £1.55 per litre. That's up more than 20p from when I last filled up about 3 weeks ago. Fuck me. Haven't had the impression people have been panic buying. There just wisnae any. Ach weel, maybe I'll just stay home today. It's not all bad

We’ve had warnings about fuel here in NZ but the petrol stations are still providing discounts and so I’d imagine will run out soon rather than later albeit they are super inflated prices. The govt here hasn’t a clue, in fact the PM actually described himself as the ceo anyway. There appear to be the people that live with their heads in the sand here that all is fine and they’ll be plenty to go around. I’m just using it as an excuse to get the wife to reduce some pointless trips locally

Seems to occur a bit on social media. Which I suppose says a lot in itself

Never heard the argument that getting relegated is a good thing. It would be a huge negative and there’s no guarantee you come straight back up.

Huntly 1 Keith 1. A fair result according to my correspondent. Ronan Craib scored first for the Maroons, and the equaliser came when the Huntly striker’s mighty swipe at the leathern sphere saw his airborne left wellie well-saved by Craig Reid as the ba trickled into the bottom corner. The Maroons’ Conor Bird was red-carded late on for persistent interference with the diesel injectors of the groundsman’s tractor.

Linlithgow possibly blown their chance by only scraping a last minute draw at home to Strollers. Clydebanks to lose

Think that's it. It didn't do them much good previously as they still got relegated again. Fortunate to land the spreadsheet man.

St. Mirren allocation sold out.

It hasn't done Hearts any harm. Mind you, the boy with the spreadsheet coming on board helped them a bit.

Obviously, you fell for an April Fool's, but as it goes he should be eligible because the five-year residency rule exists in other countries, but the home nations pact means he isn't. Instead, he needs to have spent five years at school in Scotland to be eligible, or have at least a Scottish grandparent. Never mind, Anthony Ralston will always be available.

Do we reckon the fans will get behind this lot and it’ll make a difference? God I hope so. I don’t buy into the idea relegation would be good for us.

Who would fall for that. Everyone knows it will be Russia.
