  1. Think they actually managed to appeal that so they only got a fine instead which is why they didnt get relegated last season
  2. Derby County enter administration. Surprising it has taken this long given some of the dodgy stuff their owners (and/or past owners) have been up too.
  3. In the olden days I'd have gone through for this and just handed cash over at the turnstiles but think those days are gone forever so.... Out Working Working while possibly following it on Sportsound Home (seeing if I can avoid the English scores to make Match of the Day more tolerable) 0-0
  4. Coincidence that suddenly a potential loan for another club happens (seem to recall a few have tried over the last couple of seasons) after Strachan starts working for BOTH Dundee & Celtic?
  5. Sticking my neck out here but being diagnosed with dementia in your 70s & 80s seems to be getting more prevalent in society as a whole. In my social circles it seems to be affecting women more than men, the reasons for which can only be speculated on. Does anyone know of a case where a footballer or indeed any other contact sport player has been diagnosed with dementia say in their 50s? Boxing & UFC spring to mind as the most likely.
  6. Nice quiet game in the South of France
  7. Structural engineers licking their lips at the prospect of that site.
  8. Interesting definition of 'highlights' but you get to see the goals
  9. Declan McManus scored a hat trick for the new saints in a 4-2 win over Viktoria Plzen. Czechs got their 2 goals in stoppage time which potentially screws up Wales's answer to Berwick Rangers. Game played in Cardiff a mere 134miles from their TNS's home stadium. Seems strange given Wrexham's ground is only 16miles up the road
  10. So they turn left out of Reykavik airport instead of right. Out (is anyone who isnt part of the team staff in?) Aussie Rules Training Work 2-0 Icelanders
  11. Just so you know its AEL Limassol this time. It was their city rivals Apollon Limassol who knocked the Dons out 4 years ago. They were knocked out in the last round by MSK Zilinia (Slovenia)
  12. Please copy and paste the most up to date list and don't use the quote function otherwise names will go missing. Rules: 1. One name per points tally for the season, first come first served! 2. Only allowed to change prediction until closure of January transfer window as along as it is to an empty tally. 114 100 90 80 79 78 77 - Kevin Spence 76 75 74 73 - Self confesed Lazy Cunt called Panda 72 71 - tlg1903 70 69 68 67 - Elgindon 66 65 - BigAl 64 - MBT 63 - The 'Grand Master' occasionally called Rico 62 61 - Jute 60 - Wee Toon Red 59 - 58 - RedStarTorphins 57 56 - Manc_don 55 54 53 - Tom_Widdows 52 51 50 49 48 47 46 45 44 43 42 41 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20
  13. UEFA moved the goalposts several times before and after they won the scottish cup. At one point they were meant to drop straight into the conference group stages if they lost their europa league playoff but some diddy team from Perth didnt float the boat of the bigwigs so they threw in an extra hurdle
  14. Sportsound and co not exactly waxing lyrical about the Tic. Almost seems like they might have reverted to their early 90s shell.
  15. Think you might want to stick an NSFW warning on that one mate
  16. As I understand it Clydebank's method of making Kilbowie 'all-seater' was to remove the terracing barriers and bolt down old railway sleepers to form benches. The dons on the other hand went for individual seats Personally I think Clydebank's method looks more like something designed to help short people see over the top of the taller folk standing infront of them. Standing on a flip down plastic seat is a bit tricker.
  17. Not so much of being tripped up but rather another incident where the quiz master was misinformed. Ended up taking part in a quiz night organised by Aberdeen Uni Medical students (was promised they wouldn't had lots of medical questions - lies!!!) and in the sports round they asked who had scored Aberdeen's goal at the weekend and being the only football fan in the team I put down Alexander Diamond. Think a few others put this answer down as the quiz master took it upon himself to announce anyone who put down Alexander wouldnt get the points as Diamonds first name was 'Zander' After that I stopped feeling uneasy that our team name was 'The Harold Shipman Appreciation Society'
  18. Away to Raith Rovers in the League Cup on either 14th or 15th August (Barring a complete collapse in Sweden it will be the latter)
  19. Kiwi's and Aussies pulling out of the Rugby league world cup says quite a bit. Equivalent of Brazil, Germany, Italy, Argentina, France & Spain all pulling out of the Qatar world cup
  20. D'Jaffo and Hinds Relentless so they were and the wee girl who sat in the row in front of me seemed to be obsessed with Mr Hinds to the point she was still cheering him on about 5 games after he had left the club. Cant remember if she had a white stick or a labrador
  21. Similar to Steve McMahon's in the 1990 FA Cup semi
