  1. Trevor francis out of retirement This generations Illian Kiriakov?
  2. 2012. The blood money hadnt quite taken hold and they were up against a team who were fighting relegation so actually had something to play for. Also 2 goals in injury time much more exiting and I still think an Alex Ferguson team trumps a Klopp team. 10 years later the games a bogie down south. Just wondering how long it takes for the Geordie overlords to buy the title
  3. Group A Aberdeen Raith Rovers Peterhead Dumbarton Stirling Albion
  4. Has to be Leigh Hinds and David Zdrillic Major frownage
  5. Remember the days before social media when it wasnt so easy to shoot yerself in the foot, and only yer immediate family would be bored by yer holiday snaps?
  6. 4 years eh? sounds expensive
  7. Quote from the commentator 'The welshman.......off the bench...... he was brought to Rangers ...... to produce big moments.........Ramsey.....denied by Kevin Trapp Ally Mccoist also declaring Macgregor to be the best penalty goalkeeper in the world is just asking for trouble. He's not the first keeper I think of when it comes to penalties
  8. McKenna off to wembley
  9. Hibs next season
  10. All fine and well but can he keep out a curtis main inspired St Mirren?
  11. Soon as they were down to 9 I had a feeling Caley would end up doing to Arbroath what they managed to do to hearts in the 2014 league cup semi. Almost tempted to see if I can snaffle a ticket for the 2nd leg
  12. Given the state of some of the dons support who can be found singing such songs there is a consderable amount of Irony and delusion in the red army.
  13. Soooooo Is this a cunning plan to ensure the Dons pay as low a share towards the VAR costs without the risk of dropping to a league where it wont be used?
  14. Not even the Saudi's would be prepared to stump up that much cash
  15. Cowdenbeath on the brink of exiting the league. Along with Albion Rovers, Id always hoped for a scottish or league cup away tie at their ground just for the 'novelty' In other news Dunfermline relegated to League 1. Airdrie will play Queens Park for a place in the Championship. Airdrie eventually beating Montrose 6-4 to go through 6-5 on aggregate. Montrose had been 2-0 up at half time. Dumbarton relegated to League 2 Edinburgh City Vs Annan Athletic for a place in League 1
  16. Quoting so as to preserve the record
  17. Great piece of goalkeeping
  18. Dons is 'not paying living wage' scandal
  19. Outline planning consent has been approved to demolish Shawfield and construct a mixed use (residential, hotel, leisure & retail) development
  20. Clyde leaving Broadwood to Groundshare with Hamilton (20 miles away) When Glasgow City go back to Petershill park that just leaves Cumbernauld Colts as the tenants. I wouldnt be surprised if Clyde go the way of Clydebank
  21. Previous schemes (unless I missed something) were for the around the Golf Road Driving range, which is pretty much at sea level (some sections might even be below it). I have my doubts if there is much of a sewer network once you get clear of Golf Road so adding a major development such as a football stadium is going to put a major strain on the network not withstanding the headache of building potentially below the established 'water table' - serious ground works required to make sure the soil around the site stays dry. The Hilton site from memory appears to be above sea level so soil saturation shouldnt be as bad, plus it is adjacent to a fairly major urban road which serves residential and commercial businesses on both sides so there should be a more suitable sewer network to connect to. If any established non-private roads need to be redirected to get a site to work, then a project is essentially a non-starter. Relocating a private road can be fairly straight forward as it only affects the owners of the land which it is on. Relocating a non-private road requires consultations with local residents, businesses, environmental health, the emergency services, Utility Companies, Community Councils before you even get a formal proposal together. The higher the road classification, the more complicated and expensive it gets. I suspect the Beach Boulevard would be classed as an 'Arterial Road' which is the 2nd highest in the classifications.
  22. What chance Hibs go into freefall and somehow end up on the playoff against Killie.....just as a compensation package for McInnes has been agreed?
  23. This aged well
