The Hermit Of Treig 74yo Mike Smith has lived off the land for the last 40 years! No electricity, Gas etc.... It's available to watch on iPlayer just now and I highly recommend it. Personally find him admirable, but at this stage, I'd feel a lot better if he moved back into civilization and was closer to Emergency Services, he's a 2 hour walk from the nearest Road! https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0011hp3

Unfortunately it's all being done through a training School, Rico. The next part of the process was contacting them once my Provisional PCV came through, they in turn book the Theory/Hazard. I have emailed the woman in charge, hopefully hear back from her ASAP. Cheers anyway.

I have begun the process of applying to become a Bus Driver, I have had and passed the Medical, they took my Driving License off me on the same day they did the Medical, and said I now need to wait for a Provisional PCV License, however, my Driving License came back through the Post today, there's nothing different about it whatsoever, is there a separate License for Buses/HGV Drivers or would it just get added to my normal License? I am supposed to book the Theory/Hazard/CPC Test when the Provisional PCV License arrives, this is where I am getting slightly confused. Also, would love to hear from you regarding the Job itself, what's it like and are you happy in doing it? I appreciate HGV & Bus Driving will be completely different, just curious about your feelings towards it.

Not disputing he has a goal in him, and he's certainly won us a few games with important goals, he does have that physical advantage over most CM's in the squad, and the League probably, but as a Midfielder, I think he could do the basics a lot better. I understand what @RicoS321 is saying about his movement off the ball etc... but he still has too many poor passes in him, too many needless fouls, poor decisions & he's quite cumbersome ( If that is the correct term ) I think we'd be a better Footballing team replacing him for McGeouch in an overall 11, but then again, you do risk losing that goal threat. It's a tough one, maybe his heart isn't in it, maybe has it set on a move down to England? I don't feel proud sitting here being negative about one of our own Players, I just want the very best for us as a Club, and I think in Ferguson's situation, taking as much as we can for him would benefit all parties concerned. If you look at McGeouch as an example, his movement off the ball is good, he very rarely misplaces a pass and he keeps us ticking along nicely, as well as being box to box, he just doesn't have that physicality or goal threat that Ferguson carries. Who was the young Player McInnes gave a debut too a year or so ago? Big lad but very young, think he plays CM as well, hopefully working hard behind the scenes with him, Duncan I think it was?

These last 3 games have for the most been very encouraging. Today, 2nd Half, was very good. Particularly pleased with McCrorie, Brown, McGeouch, Watkins and Ramirez. I was very underwhelmed with Scott Brown, as I alluded too in one of my after match rants weeks ago, but he's really influencing games now and I hope it continues. Watkins will be a real asset once fully fit, McGeouch has always had the ability and should be starting for me, said that previously, Ramirez is involving himself more and dropping deeper, as opposed to spending a lot of energy chasing shadows and McCrorie is a Central Midfielder playing at the left side of a back 3 in Defense, he deserves a lot of credit. I'm still concerned with Joe Lewis, he's not far away from being back to a reliable GK, but still has the odd moment, but not to the extent he was at the start of the Season, so hopefully that changes and he gets back to what we know he was. And I might come in for stick here, but Lewis Ferguson, his goal aside, was poor today, and has been for some time now, I think once we get bodies back and can shuffle Players back into their positions, McGeouch should replace Ferguson in the 11, I simply don't rate the boy and never have, he has shown brief glimpses of potential, but he's nowhere near consistent enough. Wouldn't mind seeing a bit more decisiveness from Hedges either, he's getting into the right positions but has made some proper poor decisions of late, hoping he's still getting back to full fitness and it'll come with that. I was convinced weeks ago that Glass was out of his depth in all honesty, but said there on Social Media that I've seen enough in this last 3 games from the Players to suggest that they are very much buying into what the Management are trying to do, will pipe down on my criticism of him til the end of the Season now, will be interesting to see how we fare with a completely fully fit squad of Players to choose from. P.S Fuck Hearts & especially Fuck Andy Halliday.

Sorry, last one Was introduced to these guys a few weeks back, a parody of Glam Rockers, they take the pure piss, which I absolutely love, they don't take themselves seriously at all, built quite the fan base apparently, helps given they're all actual musicians. Some of you may find it shit and offensive, but it's a joke, I personally find it hilarious.

Also, quite partial to Lana Del Rey from time to time, particularly enjoy this song.

If you're a Springsteen fan ( I know many of you are not, but some of you are ) then you really need to hear this version of The River! Unbelievable and possibly my favorite version that he's ever sang of this particular song.

I don't disagree, it's not for me, however, that is an acoustic version of one of their songs, and it blew my mind, thoroughly enjoyed it.

Will be interesting to see if the siege mentality comes to fruition today. Hibs got horsed last week, doubt any of us seen that coming, I think if we keep Boyle quiet for the main, we'll be okay defensively, believe it or not It's what we do at the other end, I think the majority of our goals have came from young Calvin Ramsay's set pieces or general crosses? We need to be more productive obviously, I think it's important we get the likes of Hedges & Samuels as close to Ramirez as possible, he can't spend the entire game chasing shadows, he needs help. I think it's got a 1-1 written all over it, sadly. But you never know, they might just surprise us today. COYR

Halloween Kills Absolutely pish, more of a Parody and piss take, rather than a serious & eerie type. The 2018 Halloween wasn't as bad, but was still underwhelming, had very high hopes from David Gordon Green & Danny McBride, but they've fucked it. Copshop Decent enough, slow burner, kind of a " Saw it coming " type Movie, with the introduction of the 2nd Hitman adding to it massively, you'll understand what I mean if you watch it. Worth a watch for sure. Not really got anything else on my list, patiently waiting for ANTLERS produced by Guillermo Del Toro, like the look of that.

Apparently the lead singer from Slipknot? Slipknot are in no way whatsoever my cup of tea, but this is pretty phenomenal in all honesty.

My best mates favourite band. " In Chains " is a cracking song, like " Pain " and " Red Eyes " too.

Has he actually been credited with the goal? Because he sure as shit never touched it In any case, all 3 goals you mention were fucking pathetic, Anderson's in particular, how Lewis managed to let that happen I'll never know, same applies to St Mirren's 3rd there, as for May's, could have been stopped long before it reached goal, but Lewis again, could have dealt with it so much better. Was more on a tired Ramsay and Gallagher defending like he plays Pub league that one though.

But Woods looked capable enough in his game time last season, he looked far more assured and reliable than Lewis, granted Lewis was excellent in his first 2 Seasons, but he's fast becoming a horror show, and he's been leading up to it too, not like it's been a one game thing, he's been rank rotten for Months now, he seems to be completely devoid of confidence, he should absolutely be our 1st Choice, but he's playing poorly and directly costing us goals with some dumfounding goalkeeping, I think he's very much in need of some time on the bench, a kick up the arse so to speak.

Kind of stayed away from here, trying to give Glass time and see where we are, the guy says all the right things and I think we can all agree there's a bit more purpose about how we try to play now, but ultimately it's not working, there are many reasons for it. First and foremost, Joe Lewis needs dropped, that's a simple one to start off with, guys as good as a goal down these days. It gets more debatable probably here after, for me, cannot for the life of me see what Scott Brown brings to this team, very much in the same vein as Lewis Ferguson, no secret I have never rated the boy, but Brown and Ferguson together is not productive. Calvin Ramsay will definitely go on to bigger things, he's a proper prospect, but he still has so much to learn defensively, MacKenzie I've no real issues with, for me, McCrorie replaces Brown in the middle of the park, McGeouch replaces Ferguson, and whilst he's clearly not started brightly, Gallagher and Bates should be Central Defense, Ramsay and MacKenzie the full backs and Woods in Goal. I'd have Samuels and Hedges as close to Ramirez as possible too, Ramirez is pretty poor all round in my opinion, but he's predatory and will score with the supply, but he spends far too much energy and time chasing lost causes, looked like he could link up well, but that was one game really and that was with Emmanuel-Thomas right next to him. It's been a pretty abysmal run of results, some good play and less aimless hoofball aside, it's not good enough. I'd have no issue in keeping Brown as a bit part Player and coach, I'd sell Lewis Ferguson to the highest bidder, McGeouch may not be a goal threat, but he is box to box and rarely loses possession, always gets about the pitch and looks for the ball, leave that to the likes of Longstaff, Hedges, Samuels etc... Woods Ramsay Bates Gallagher MacKenzie McCrorie McGeouch Longstaff Hedges Samuels Ramirez I appreciate that looks a bag of shit, but you get the idea. I just think we're being held back by poor individuals, and have been even under McInnes, although he never helped himself with poor selections and personnel for a long period of time, the same will happen to Glass if he doesn't shake it up. Sorry for the rant, appreciate constructive criticism as of course there will be many disagreements and hope everyone is well and safe.

Seems fairly obvious Matty Kennedy will be moving to pastures new. I have a feeling we're waiting to see if we qualify for the Group Stages of this Conference League then offering roughly £300k-£500k PLUS Kennedy for McGrath at St Mirren, Goodwin speaking publicly today about Kennedy as well.

Hope we pump these cunts, their Manager is a fucking mouthpiece. A similar performance and result in the 1st Leg vs Hacken would do nicely. If not, I'll settle for a 3 - 0 win for the good guys. ( Ramirez x 2, McLennan )

After going 2 up, we seemed to stop playing and it was only a matter of time before they got back into it. Thankfully Glass was bold enough to make the changes and it worked, never felt threatened at any point in the 2nd Half. But those goals we conceded were amateur as fuck and a genuine concern. We need another CB and we need to start Gallagher from the beginning from here on. Perhaps harsh on McCrorie ( If that's who is replaced ) but he's a midfielder, that's the reality, he was solid in the 1st Leg against Hacken, but he was pish and a liability in the 2nd Leg and last night, their 1st Goal was rather comical and simply doesn't happen if Gallagher was on, would have been dealt with before it bounced. Anyway, seems like we will be fine in the final 3rd, obvious defensive concerns, but surely they'll see that and work on rectifying it?

I'll got for a 2-0 Dons win ( Ramirez, Ferguson )

I know the bottom line of Friendlies is to get match fit and work on shape and stuff like that, but I always find it disappointing not to win, again, I know there purpose is a factor of different things, but winning breeds confidence, no matter the game, just my opinion. Finally back into the action though and the competitive games cannot come quick enough, pretty buzzed for this Season ( Despite a shite draw against ICT ? )

The Club are really milking this Ramirez signing, and when I say that, I mean they are acting, on Social Media anyway, that he's some sort of messiah ( Or Superman ? ) I just pray that it does not backfire and he becomes a Dud. I am definitely going into this Season with confidence, the more time Glass, Russell & Apaloo get to work with them, the better. Perhaps I have just given up with McInnes' eye bleeding negative shite for the last 3 years that anything new was bound to excite me, but I truly believe we're going to be a good team this Season, a team that surprise a good few people. Either that or we'll be mid-table shite and out of both cups early. ( The saving grace there is that Glass is only on a 12 month rolling contract ) Come on you Fucking Reds!

Apparently Ramirez has been granted his Work Permit and will sign this coming week.
