  1. It's one of the most lethal mountains in Scotland. In the many occasions my Dad was called out with the local Mountain Rescue Team the only occasions I can recall hearing about people being killed was on An Teallach. Think it might even have claimed the life of someone I played Rugby with.
  2. Presume it wont be long till Piers Morgan makes it onto that list
  3. Just dawned on me that Mcinnes is the first Aberdeen Manager to win at both Celtic Park & Ibrox since Alex Smith Personally I'm happier with that than the League cup win.
  4. soooo 7th 8th 3rd at the time the season was stopped Resigns with Motherwell 3rd bottom on a run of 3 points from a possible 24. Inspiring stuff
  5. P&J going with it too https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/sport/football/aberdeen-fc/2957020/aberdeen-derek-mcinnes/
  6. Not Joe Lewis related but this came up on my Youtube feed. Before my 'football supporting' time but the man who couldn't beat Theo used to run the Ross County training sessions at my School. Seems he is managing Rothes at the moment
  7. Alistair Alexander Think he was the commentator when I first started listening to sportsound back in the days when for some reason they weren't allowed to broadcast the first 30mins of the match.
  8. Manc OOT and Rico hanging on by a thread. I might actually need to make space for the trophy 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. 77 76 75 74 - MBT 73 72 71 70 69 68 - danthedon 67 - RicoS321 66 - Manc_don 65 64 - Wee Toon Red 63 62 - BigAl 61 60 - Jute 59 58 - Elgindon 57 56 55 54 - Tom_Widdows 53 52 51 50 49 ------- Previous Champions: 2009-10: Dave_min (41 points) 2010-11: BigAl (38 points) 2011-12: Snapper (41 points) 2012-13: Tyrant (48 points) 2013-14: 2014-15: Dandy (75 points) 2015-16: Dandy (retained due to no correct scorer) 2016-17: Rico (76 points - Flawless Victory. Nothing questionable about it at all) 2017-18: Tom (73 points) 2018-19: DantheDon (67points) 2019-20: No winner - DantheDon retains title following an independent inquiry

    Films

    Went back to 1990 with 'The Exorcist 3: Legion' after finishing the book on Audible Managed to get hold of a second hand copy through ebay since it doesnt seem to be readily available in the UK. Given the 2nd exorcist movie had nothing to do with William Peter Blatty this is the actual sequel to the original and for me it pisses all over every 'modern' horror film. Also has one of the best 'jump scares' in movie history
  10. danthedon OOT 7 games left (Accies, Arabs, Brazil 1970, SEVCO, Tic, and probably Livi & St Mirren). Are they capable of getting 6 points from that? 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. 77 76 75 74 - MBT 73 72 71 70 69 68 - danthedon 67 - RicoS321 66 - Manc_don 65 64 - Wee Toon Red 63 62 - BigAl 61 60 - Jute 59 58 - Elgindon 57 56 55 54 - Tom_Widdows 53 52 51 50 49 48 ------- Previous Champions: 2009-10: Dave_min (41 points) 2010-11: BigAl (38 points) 2011-12: Snapper (41 points) 2012-13: Tyrant (48 points) 2013-14: 2014-15: Dandy (75 points) 2015-16: Dandy (retained due to no correct scorer) 2016-17: Rico (76 points - Flawless Victory.

  11. Believe he is referencing SEVCO'S chances of a successful Europa League campaign
  12. Still a really stupid thing to do given it was only a loan and was still under contact to Hibs for 1.5years. But I don't think anyone has ever claimed footballers to be the sharpest tools in the shed. Anyway top 6 assured so no more fear of relegation for another year.....yay
  13. Id be surprised if Kamberi wanted to come back to Scotland long term so hopefully he is going to play out of his skin to make sure he keeps his place at St Gallen or gets a move to another swiss club. He also really screwed up with his comments after moving to Sevco on loan and seems the abusive social media posts have already started
  14. Id have to spend time trawling through messageboards of all other SPFL teams to see what their injury complaints are to give an accurate answer. Personally last time I had any opinions on who a rival teams best player was, was back in the days of Henrik Larrson. Anyway 4-0 Dons today doing County a favour in the process (Not a fan of Kilmarnock) An annoying 4-0 too IE its 3-0 at half time and then they sit back for the 2nd half and get a late penalty rather than trying to run up a cricket score.
  15. Same logic as to 'why are there always a breakdown where it causes the worst traffic jam?' Answer is these things happen all the time but you only notice when it affects you directly.
  16. MBT becomes the first casualty. looking precarious for a few folk now 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. 77 76 75 74 - MBT 73 72 71 70 69 68 - danthedon 67 - RicoS321 66 - Manc_don 65 64 - Wee Toon Red 63 62 - BigAl 61 60 - Jute 59 58 - Elgindon 57 56 55 54 - Tom_Widdows 53 52 51 50 49 48 47 - Top 6 Guaranteed. Safe from Relegation 46 45 ------- Previous Champions: 2009-10: Dave_min (41 points) 2010-11: BigAl (38 points) 2011-12: Snapper (41 points) 2012-13: Tyrant (48 points) 2013-14: 2014-15: Dandy (75 points) 2015-16: Dandy (retained due to no correct scorer) 2016-17: Rico (76 points - Flawless Victory. Nothing questionable about it at all) 2017-18: Tom (73 points) 2018-19: DantheDon (67points) 2019-20: No winner - DantheDon retains title following an independent inquiry
  17. flashbacks of Zdrillic and Prunty no?
  18. MBT becomes the first casualty. Sadly with 10 games I'm not sure if the dons will even reach my total Provided they make the top 6 that 10 games includes 4 against the OF and 1 against hibs. 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. 77 76 75 74 - MBT 73 72 71 70 69 68 - danthedon 67 - RicoS321 66 - Manc_don 65 64 - Wee Toon Red 63 62 - BigAl 61 60 - Jute 59 58 - Elgindon 57 56 55 54 - Tom_Widdows 53 52 51 50 49 48 47 - Top 6 Guaranteed.

  19. Kyle Lafferty darkens another scottish club's door. This time its Killie
  20. Bojack Horseman. The animation style put me off (quite similar to the bizarre 'Mr Pickles) but glad I decided to give it a go. Just finished the first season with 5 more to go and according to reviews it gets better from the 2nd series onwards
