    Films

    Slight left turn here but went to see 'Wreck it Ralph' last night Not too bad and I liked the premise but not as good as some of the other Pixar films. However it was a free ticket Downside for me anyway was as per usual unless you were prepared to put up with the 3D shite the latest show time was 645pm. It still baffles me that couples with upwards of 6 kids will arrive after a film has started into a cinema they know will be packed as its a new release and yet still seem to assume they will easily find 4-8 empty seats next to each other anywhere other than the front section. Result is they stand about in the aisles looking lost for about 5mins turning the cinema into the Parkhead away section before brains finally kicks into gear.
  6. St Mirren (H) (11th) - Draw Dundee (H) (12th) - Win Kilmarnock (A) (9th) - Defeat Ross County (H) (10th) - Defeat Motherwell (H) (3rd) - Draw Celtic (A) (1st) - Defeat Hearts (H) (8th) - Draw Dundee United (A) (7th) - defeat 6/24 points
  7. BBC finally catch up with Alex Thomson http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-21370477
  8. TV stats this season (not including Alba) Won 1 (Hibs) Drawn 2 (Hibs & Motherwell) Lost 3 (Celtic x2, St Johnstone) Alba games Won 0 Drawn 3 (Ross County & Arabs x2 ) Lost 2 (Ross County & Hearts) TV cameras are an irrelevancy. Players bottle it with or without a make up crew
  9. Supposedly been told to fuck off by the SFA with regards to claiming transfer fees/ compensation for Macgregor, Aluko etc. 6million quid not coming their way However as true to form they say they havent lost and will still carry on claiming the cash.
  10. I do find the adverts for this sham of a tournament quite amusing terms such as 'fierce rivalry' should be enough to have the trades description act enforcers sniffing around. and i did find this amusing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgb24T1MVZU
  11. What the fucks happened to boys these days Day 1 of primary school rule for boys was never cry or show you were in pain for anything. That was what girls did. Bleeding nose Football in the nuts, Broken leg Gunshot wound For fuck sake don't cry!! At 5s last night there were worse incidents amongst guys aged 16 up to late 40s but only one mouthy cockney made any noise about it and he was eventually 'silenced' by his own team. I presume that it is now the rule that you must roll around and make out that you've been shot if someone beats you in a game of 'slaps'? Our old school game of '5s a kicking' probably doesn't last longer that 1 round these days
  12. Wise move saves the administrators having to pay removal men and rent warehouse space by having the public clear away all those michael macintyre dvds
  13. How do they know that was what he was referring to?
  14. Doesnt Rory Mccallister has a better goals record than Kenny Miller?
  15. Last one I watched was in 2010 and the linesmen didnt know how to do their job. They just stood on the halfway line looking back towards one of the goals. Almost every counter attack i can recall was flagged offside even if the striker had been stood in his own half when the ball was played. Why they insist on having it every 2 years is a mystery to me.
  16. No salt No Limes And for the first 1/3 of the bottle, no glass or cup etc to drink it out of. Just a small sombrero shaped cap.
  17. The other trick seems to be to share the train back with lower league teams fans. Having received a verbal warning from a harpy clippie before we'd even boarded the train we only saw her about 2 times from inverness to perth. She seemed to spend most of her Harpy energy on the east fife fans in the next carriage up. Even complemented us on our good behaviour. That may have been down to someones bright idea to purchase a bottle of tequila though.
  18. Amazon (The Sad Ken of this race)
  19. According to one member of the GUASC the way around it is to merely fill up half a bottle of smirnoff with coke The conductors will assume you always store your soft drinks in spirits bottles and leave you alone
  20. selling out a 60000 stadium at min £62 a ticket each week seems like good financial sense to me. How long it will last however.......
  21. European place for the winner might help too. But I take it thats outside of the SFA's hands?
  22. Was also a particularly shite product for the amount of money you were paying. I stopped using them because basically every 2nd dvd I rented was scratched to fuck and never played. The reponse from the staff was the classic 'fucked if i care' and occasionally they would offer to put it through some little cleaning device which only made the scratches/gouges shiny. You never got a refund, they just kept offering it to you for anther night. What also shafted them was the speed DVDs come out to buy now. Used to take an eternity for a film to make it to the rental market from the cinema and then it would take almost the same length of time again before you could buy it. Now it seems you can buy it on the same day it is released for rental and thats usually within 3months of its cinema relase. And at £7 for 1 night at Blockbuster (with a disc that probably wont work) as opposed to £15-20 on amazon etc to keep or part of a £5 a month love film subscription its no wonder they were fucked.
  23. Im not sure where Robert Rae's is but most of my CD collection was purchased from a wee place opposite the bowling alley. Think it was called Retro Blue and the owner was sound bloke called James. Think he was using some early collectors ebay board to get hold of rare CDs & Vinyl. That was open about 2000-2003 but unfortunately the internet sites gradually got larger collections and got cheaper so he eventually had to close. Never found out what happened to him
