Well, since you ask.... which election in recent times should I have given a fuck about? Really, I mean? Not just pretendy attachment of importance to make it sound like I care. Are any of us really going to know the difference between Orban being in power in Hungary, or his counterpart? The last UK election was "fought" on the inspiring idea of giving the incumbent party a bloody nose for a decade. Which nation and its shining example should make me, or anyone else, think that representative democracy is a successful system (trite, reductive Churchill quotes aside)? Even the Scottish elections, more egalitarian and closer to home as they are, hold about the importance of this season's player of the year if we're being honest about it.

Just watched the highlights from Saturday. That was a great finish by Nisbet for the second. The touch he took on his left, to tee it up on his right for the shot, superb.

It appears the orange gimp has went too far, depicting himself as Jesus. If it wasn't so serious, this Trump presidency could have been the best political satire ever.

Edgy.

McInnes overthinking the conversation and deciding to make changes that devalue the experience - surely not?

Yes they have. They covered the result in the last Polish election for example. It's unusual for a European leader to be in place for 16 years, too, so it is reasonably interesting. I think that they should give Eastern European elections as much coverage as French or German. A reasonable amount, but nae overboard. Edit: not that I give a shite about any election really. For the avoidance of doubt, I'm giving an objective point of view on the state broadcaster and what would seem to be reasonable.

Turned out it was one of their best gigs too. Oh well, you win some, lose some.

Motörhead once played a gig at the Barras and opened with the Ace of Spades. Half the crowd fucked off straight after

It’s a setback for the dullest reactionary racist simpletons on the planet, ours included.

I'm not aware of any Broch connection to N.Ireland

Why are the BBC obsessed with the Hungarian election? They've never been bothered about elections in eastern Europe before. I'm sure 99.999999999% of British people couldn't care less who won.

A question we've all avoided on this relegation thread, but what does Stephen Robinson call it? Can confirm a friend from Bangor calls it "the chip".

Some People You'll need to be of a certain age to grasp that one

He just went in to tell them it's a f*cking chipper. He maybe learnt more than we thought when he managed us.

Sorry for giving only half the story, but he did come out of the Lido with a beige coloured package, which, if he had any sense, would have included a breaded fish (even though the fish down here is an abomination compared to the pearls of the sea haddock you get in the Broch) or a haggis pudding (but I agree with Mason here the Lido isn't the best (certainly not haggis anyway) I could not tell if the package included a mock chop or a King rib, but it definitely wouldn't have been a white or red pudding supper. There isn't a bog in the Lido but he could have been complaining about the sign...

I defy anyone not to tap their foot whilst listening to The Diggers Song. It's like eating a doughnut without licking your lips.

Yet @Brochred never said that he was carrying his takeaway. Perhaps he'd gone in for a shite, or just to tell them that their sign was missing a few letters.

Even that annoys me about him. There’s much better chippy options in Helensburgh Its just lazy

A couple of years ago I saw Derek coming out of the Lido CHIP SHOP in Helensburgh. Can't remember anyone signing for Killie shortly after though

I was at Knebworth in 86 when Belouis Some opened with "Imagination" and closed with "Imagination". In between he was just dodging bottles thrown by all the Quo fans up the front. They then made a point of leaving before Queen came on, denying themselves the chance to see Freddie Mercury's last ever live performance. I think I also saw Chumbawumba open and close once with "Tubthumping". Might be doing them a disservice, but who cares as they're gash.

I watched it min, Rose played well (and always does) Would have liked to see him win it, but chuffed for Mcllroy and hope he goes on to do the hattrick next year

Was nice to see a bit of animation that’s for sure.

The Beatles - Come Together

Not sure he can be a contender for world cup call up, but I have been saying it for months he has been our best player this season (not much competition right enough) but in my opinion a one horse race for our POTY. In light of the shite we have had to endure this season it would probably be best to cancel the award, but if it has to be given to someone then for me it should be Nisbet. Anyway, massive three points which not very many of us were expecting, same again in a couple of weeks against Killie and we can then all start to breath a wee bit easier.
