  1. Sportsound and co not exactly waxing lyrical about the Tic. Almost seems like they might have reverted to their early 90s shell.
  2. Think you might want to stick an NSFW warning on that one mate
  3. 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.
  4. 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'
  5. 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)
  6. 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
  7. 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
  8. Similar to Steve McMahon's in the 1990 FA Cup semi
  9. 3-0 Dons No messing about

  12. This new fangled quote system doesnt really work for this thread so probably best if we copy and paste the list etc. Rules: 1.

  13. Getting this one started while so we can tap into the optimism and excitment that is running rampant across this forum. Rules: 1.

  14. Pretty sure I saw another sign which consisted of a saltire, the terminator and the phrase 'we'll be back'
  15. Fighting stewards and cops before kick off to get in without tickets. Couldn't get out of wembley fast enough at the end. Wouldnt even stay to see their team pick up their medals. Class all round
  16. Wonder if the red tops will crucify Rashford, Sancho, and Saka or if their editors have grown up a bit?
  17. Ally mccoist has his faults but loved his 'id forgotten there was another game on tonight' comment after another bought of england chat by his co commentator in the denmark game. Possibly my own personal bias but seem to recall hearing 'these two are playing for the right to play england'
  18. If outfield players can 'stagger' runs them goalies can move about. The fact its possible for keepers to be sent off in a penalty shootout if they save one after stepping off the line, plus the kick gets retaken, yet outfield players dont get booked or even spoken to for stopping dead b4 kicking the ball is a joke. In such an instance id like to see that outfield player booked and their penalty cancelled
  19. Ive got a similar feeling to the one I had when Ebbe Skovdahl was appointed...... but slightly better than when McGhee was unveiled. Difference is several decades on I don't care as much
  20. Provided Eglandshire don't win the tournament it will go on until the next time Germany hump them. The 5-1 game in Munich seemed to be consigned to the archives following the 4-1 game in the 2010 world cup
  21. And its gone starting from this season. No more Skonto Riga or Bohemians nightmares at Pittodrie, or Dnipro joy in the Ukraine
  22. He'll be nicely rested for the quarter finals then
  23. Cyprus it is
  24. In the Glasgow green fanzone yes. Moyes & Collins carrying whoever this STV bloke is on their makeshift wembley studio.
  25. North of the border STV will be sending TUP into meltdown with their post match coverage
