I don't understand that logic at all. We can get rid of anyone we want to any close season but none of them would just walk away because we got relegated so it would cost us money to be shot of them regardless of which division we were in. There is not one circumstance I can contemplate where relegation could be anything other than an embarrassing disaster.

I have a feeling when I was younger we would say "does anyone fancy a chip supper", just meaning who wants something from the chipper / a chipper supper. But we would never go to the chipper to actually order a chip supper - that's just chips with chips! That's madness. Boring old fish for me - or battered sausage supper. If as many chipper suppers are consumed in the dons dressing room as we are discussing on this thread, then we are certainly destined for relegation (trying to keep it on topic!)

This one has always bemused me. Brought up in the Broch, it has always been the chip shop, I've never used either chipper or chippie. Heard more folk say chippie but the question always was " anyone want anything from the chip shop"

Nah, Martin Stewart out of retirement with four

Finally watched The Unforgiven. Something that struck me about a movie written by Clint Eastwood, his own script was shockingly shite, whilst Gene Hackman's script was absolutely legendary.

TBH I am surprised this bawheid is not mentioned more often in this thread. Whilst Trump is an ignoramus, he is someone you can appease by saying "there, there. Have you had your 2pm meds yet Donald?". Vance however ...

My auld man still lives in Stonehaven, and still calls it a Chip Supper. Yes, I have often wondered if he had cause to complain if he was served a portion of chips with a portion of chips

My entire body aches at the thought of us being the 2nd last club to ever be relegated out of the top flight. But I genuinely think we need a season or two lower down to cast off the charlatans, build a team of battlers, and come back into the Premiership stronger. If we survive this season, we are gonna be stuck with manybof the cunts on the field who got us here in the first place. Relegation will see many of these twats fuck off

Ah, I thought Brora were three ahead of Brechin for some reason. Huntly will tank them. Marco De Barros hattrick.

It is definitely a chipper. The reason is that you get your meat from a butcher, fish from a fishmonger, groceries from a grocer, so it stands to reason that you get chips from a chipper. There you go. Case closed.

Huntly did get a draw at Brora earlier in the season so not a given that Brora will win on Saturday.

C'mon the Huntly

I have family in Arran, worked on Arran, lived on Arran, got married on Arran and visit Arran every chance I get Nobody cares more about these ferries than Herald readers who never use them

3 points and 4 goals ahead, which is exactly the difference between Turra and Huntly in the massive tenth/eleventh place battle. Full coverage on the BBC I expect.

Chip-Steak is taking things tooooooooo far min. I honestly don't think I have ever been peshed enough to ask for a Chip-Steak supper

We’re still (thankfully) missing the Chip Steak which I presume is the unidentifiable meat shavings left over after the lips and arseholes have been used in mock chops and king ribs.

If he'd called it a chipper supper, he'd have been correct. The supper of the chipper being a fash one. Everything else being a disgusting modrin abuse of the establishment.

Can't see the Lib Dems doing much. Still think the SNP are going to be out after it. I'm hoping Labour get a doing, really deserved, but also worried about the rise of Reform, who give me the fear, even more so than the Tories. I'd personally love to see Douglas Lumsden MSP lose his seat. I vote SNP myself, not because of any great promises from them, but solely down to the fact that they are not a Unionist party and I personally, don't want to be part of this unequal union. I could vote green, but they have some shit policies, in my opinion, that I can't get onside with at the moment. There's not really a lot on offer, but the same applies in the Westminster elections. You know the country is fucked, when ferries appear as an ongoing main news story. I know it's important for those dependant on them, but far more pressing issues need discussing.

On any occasion where I have entered the deep frying establishment to place my order, and then sadly been told they do not have and Mock Chop's My second "go-to" fall back order has always been a King Rib. Although I would not class it as "habitually" ordering just thought I would put this out there to see if this counts towards us completing the holy trinity of the mystery-meat supper?

I see Tommy Sheridan reckons recent opinion polls show his "alliance" that has only one policy, is set to scoop 8% of the regional vote. Not a chance luv. Will be an interesting election though. SNP, despite some dark days and Swinney being nowhere near as inspiring or galvanising as Sturgeon or Salmond, may actually pick up seats in previously uncharted territory due to the unionist vote being split by Reform, Tories and Labour. Lib Dems really should be looking at being the main party of opposition, but not sure they have it in them outwith their usual strongholds. Greens should do well. Salmond a great loss - whether you agreed with him or not he was great value. The election campaign so far has been pretty boring without him.

What was the podcast that apparently reads out comments from here? Looking forward to how he rounds this thread up.

Used to hang about with a Northern Irish guy at Uni and he’d confuse the hell out of the staff in whatever Chippie we’d end up in as he called fish n chips a ‘chip supper’. No matter how many times I used to explain that he’d just get a massive portion of chips he insisted that was what it was called. Loony.

Wasn’t aware of this.sure NFL has done throwback jerseys for a while but not aware these are worn over a specific weekend. Definitely not heard of it in football before. As you day just another excuse to fleece the fans. Article from ESPN that list some of retro strips being used. https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/48268121/laliga-reveals-throwback-kits-teams-wear-retro-matchday

I'm not really a big fan of chippies 2bh though there is a really solid one 2 minutes from my house. They taste good but I always feel like I've gargled oil after one. Classically I'm a fish supper kinda guy when I do fwiw. My personal recommendation for that in Scotland would be the Fochabers chip shop.
