  1. Get her to wax and it will look more than alright
  2. Anderson and Mackie Scored from it against Dundee (Mackies goal only just crossed the line so the ref missed it but it was given by the Linesman) Match is on Red Tv for those who like to waste cash http://www.afcheritage.org/matches/fixtures/mreport.cfm?fixture_id=132&season=2001-02&squad=Senior
  3. Correct me if I'm wrong but is 'cliping' not telling on someone who is doing something that isnt actually illegal or dangerous but is against the rules, just so you can get them into trouble. Last time I checked vandalism of private property and releasing fireworks/ flares in a public place other than as part of a regulated display or as a distress signal were illegal and dangerous so its only cliping in the eyes of the fuckwits who do it
  4. Did they not announce how many away fans there were? or is that something only St Mirren do and St Johnstone do?
  5. Well you have to sell it to the yanks
  6. In/Oot: OOT Pre-match: Escorting a young lady up a mountain Match: Yon mountain Post Match: Hopefully off the mountain Prediction: 1-0 Partick (Yes thats right you heard me!)
  7. On the other hand it does show how thick footballers are that they will willingly sign for them. In other news im looking forward to my new job at woolworths. Im gonna stick around there for a couple of months and then get a better job with Enron.
  8. I do wonder if anyone at SFA HQ is looking at what Belgium has become since their epic failure at Euro 2000 (first host team not to make it past the group stages of a tournament) Scraped through the group stages of World cup 2002 with an aging squad then got done by Brazil with ease Failed to Qualify for Euro 2004, 2008 & 2012 Failed to qualify for World cup 2006, 2010 Now after more than a decade of development they have a squad with an average age of 26 filled with players being sought after by all the top leagues for massive transfer fees. Wonder if Scotland could ever hope to achieve the same thing but I doubt it. The SFA will most likely revert back to the 'well they have a population of 11 million to choose from.......we only have the 70 english clubs
  9. The wee bitchfest about god in the comments is very entertaining
  10. David Frost gone
  11. Gone to Belgium
  12. only for the group stages
  13. Soooo basically they've dusted off a plan from about 20 years ago but have now added in shifting the railway station. I can only presume moving the railway station would allow them to build that shopping mall the city is in desperate need of
  14. The important word in yon statement is 'currently' By all means Pittodrie could stand for another 100 years but as to how much of it is open for spectators come 2113 is another matter. Of course the other factor is how many people will continue to bother turning up as it slowly falls into disrepair.
  15. Because yer a 33 year old alcoholic
  16. oooh is this the early stages of the fabled 'cross rail' dream they were playing with about 12years ago? Of are the locals so lazy they cant be arsed walking up bridge street?
  17. 4,897 brave souls turned up to watch this 'cracking cup tie'
  18. If this goes to penalties http://i.imgur.com/B77fx.gif
  19. well at least we have kept a clean sheet....so far
  20. Chances are we will be in the old timber main stand so if yer tall bring some padding for yer shins
  21. 109 years since they last beat the dons? Fate, Karma, Murphy, Loki etc have all suddenly taken an interest
  22. Im willing to concede to anyone with more knowledge on the subject than me. What I've posted comes from discussions with an ex North sea Rigger (14 years with Britoil & BP) and self confessed Aeroplane nut.
  23. Simple fact is helicopter as an aircraft is not as safe as a plane. Plane's engine(s) fail the pilot at least has the ability to glide and control a chance of controlling a crash landing. I would presume part of the annual top up training commercial pilots go through in the simulator is how you crash land in numerous conditions and terrains. When a plane lands on water the shape and design makes it actually quite stable so in theory it will take alot longer to sink, certainly long enough to get the survivors out and onto life rafts. Helicopter engine fails and it drops out of the sky. They are also extremely unstable which is one of the reasons riggers do the training in the water tank when the mock helicopter cabin is dropped into the water and then turns upside down. Even if the airbags deployed when it hit the water even in a mild swell it wont take much to capsize and then it comes down to several factors such as how experienced the passengers are, how well they can actually cope with the shock of the initial crash and suddenly being submerged into sea water, that they didnt inflate or accidentally activate their life jacket before they managed to get out through the windows etc. The Superpuma has been used since the late 70s and given the number of flights they make around the world every day they are about as safe as a helicopter can be. Like all aircraft they go through serious checks before they are allowed to take off and if any fault is found in any aircraft it is not allowed to leave the ground until 1) they fixed the faults and 2) they know what caused it 3) they know how they fixed it. The sad fact is compared to a plane the helicopter is a deathtrap.
