fair enough

Good read. Includes video.

Oddly, Aberdeen haven't actually bothered to explain why it was moved. It's been up to Motherwell to inform our fans why.

I don’t see myself as that out there or abnormal, just someone who wants a normal, safe, and affordable life. I’ve seen this country change in 30 years, and someone is finally doing something about it. i’m ready for the abuse, but I relate to jack nicholson in ‘a few good men.’ There’s no easy way of making the change this country needs. But I do believe doing nothing is worse. I’ll add, none of you know me besides random posts, and what I mean may not be what you hear. your comment about the UK being less reliant on the US is spot on and exactly what trump has said. Countries need to do more for themselves, the US can’t afford to fund so many other situations any more. Other countries and leaders need to step up for their own good, much like the US is doing for themselves. I don’t think that makes you a bad place/country/person. when was last in Scotland, 2015, I went to Edinburgh for 2 days where I spent 4 years at college. I rarely heard a Scottish accent. All English and Eastern European. It was not the Edinburgh I lived in from 1990-1994. I don’t think this makes me a racist or whatever, I love my country and culture. It’s just changing and becoming a different place/culture. Not sure it’s better, but certainly different. I think this country is trying to save the culture from slipping further away.

I'm going to the ice hockey BBC have got full coverage

Derek Rae’s article was interesting, plus this lad has been compared in a way to Simmie. You can tell by the reactions on line how much we need this type of player. as has been said though, Ambrose looked good on YouTube. Time will tell, but surely with the amount of poorer signings, we can get it right at some point! the thistle lad has been mentioned, but he’s younger and I have hopes for Kjarten. This lad is good age, good experience. Hasn’t played a lot of late but in modern football that can happen. Hope this is his opportunity to shine.

Usually only watch the ice hockey at Winter Olympics so hoping that is part of BBC coverage.

This country is fucked financially, and the current administration ran on (not saying mainly) improved financial responsibility, one of those factors being illegal immigrants in the country. It’s not possible to sustain, the debt is horrendous, including significant benefits to illegals, many of which have been ended. You can also obviously tie crime to illegals too. Obviously not everyone is a criminal, but that leads to the debate of, is every illegal immigrant a criminal? ICE agents are doing their job. You see them now covering their faces. Their pics are posted online, and they and their families are getting death threats. They get attacked regularly. Obviously it’s their choice to do their job. They are targeting illegal immigrants, rounding up those with records. You’ll hear arguments that others are targeted too, but I understand what they are doing and why. This country cannot fund and support its own people at present, never mind the influx, plus it is a security/safety issue. There’s various factors in play there. Rounding up criminals who are illegal immigrants obviously comes with a significant element of danger. ICE conducts organized operations. There are no live protests because these are intended to be surprise/secret operations. But you are getting info leaked and people showing up to obstruct justice, and a number paid to do so. Confrontation is inevitable. Death is always sad, but you are also going to find out that most likely Alex pretti was an ICE agitator. According to CNN, possibly the most left leaning media outlet here, he was reportedly involved in a physical altercation with an ICE agent two weeks ago, and broke a rib. This time reportedly he came with a gun and a first aid kit. He was not a bistander filming from a distance or peaceful protestor. It’s a horrible situation and good to see trump and Walz communicating to work together. What’s interesting is that ICE was significantly used by Obama and from what I read, deportations of illegals peaked in 2011. What is happening now is not unlike what has happened before, but on a smaller scale. It’s just being politicized way more. Anti trump, republican v democrat. Obama got the nickname ‘deporter in chief’ for a reason, but it wasn’t publicized or discussed as it is today.

Bisconti was a star. Gave not a fuck for opponents’ reputations, and treated them all as if they’d spilt his pint, or been found rattling his granny. The sort of coorse, nasty shitehoose I love to see in our midfield. Nielsen looked like a CNS when he arrived, but shitehooses tend to end up shackled and restrained by the modern “there was contact”/“he was entitled to go down” fannydancer brigade. Davie Robb, Tattie, and Simmie were exemplars of CNS ideology, approach, and semi-brutal behaviour. Bisconti was up there with them.

Apparently because both teams have 5 games in space of 14 days.

Moved for TV or just because both teams playing midweek?

I am opposite. Was on for Saturday but have family stuff on the Sunday which means I cannot make it. Cup game being moved week before rules that out as well.

I'm working Saturday and off the Sunday, so delighted with this. Might even go. Just need similar to happen to Hearts away...

Minivan they were in collided with a truck. https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/47744955/paok-fans-killed-minibus-crash-romania-lyon-europa-league

Extra days rest after tannadice midweek, that's no bad thing.

Bear in mind as well folks Nilsen has been linked with moves and palaversa hasn't had a sniff in ages. Fair chance both of these guys are away in the next few days. I like the sound of the Nigerian lad fwiw. A bit of muscle in the centre of the park can reap dividends in this league and it sounds like he's going to be bringing that. Derek Rae reckons he can play a wee bit as well and whilst I can understand why people are making Rama comparisons from what I can gather he seems more of a Bisconti type. And wouldn't that be nice, Bisco was a hell of a player.

That's horrific

Terrible accident and 7 PAOK fans lost their lives on the way to watch their team in France. No matter what team you support nobody should lose their lives going to support their team.

Fuck yes I better not bump into them when I'm there!!

That’s a good move for him. Frame will play, as will bilalovic, lobban probably too, but we have an overload of central mids and he needs regular game experience.

Like history repeating itself…..

Didn’t quote a timeline just said it was a permanent deal- certainly not 4 months wouldn’t be surprised if either Chris Harvey got it wrong or if we were signing him for 2 years- both parties are liable to a faux pas from time to time

Anyone know what happened to the loon? Got some minutes, then a start at Ibrox and don't think he's been seen again. I know he is young, but our experienced players have been worse than shit on many occasions and not dropped. Possibly attitude issues? No idea, just surmising.

Absolutely ridiculous.
