    World Cup

    Be interested to hear from you if the Kiwi's have changed their licensing laws since the 2006 world cup. Was quite irritating being chucked out of their pubs just as a game was going to extra time although it was satisfying finding a nightclub 3 doors along from the said pub which was showing the England v Portugal match extra time and not taking the time to tell the angry mob of england fans who were threatening to riot on the streets of Wellington. Got to watch the game on a 14in portable telly hung on a bracket in the corner too so it was very nostalgic. Personally I reckon Russia will get pumped out of the group stages
  2. Livingston Promoted. Partick were shocking over both ties and Connor Salmon showed that for all the hype he has had over his career he just isn't a goalscorer
  3. If so I doubt anything will happen until 29th May at the earliest and depending on whether or not Coventry turn over Exeter at Wembley.
  4. 'The Young Person's guide to becoming a Rock star' box set now available on All4 Hadn't seen it since its original run in 1998 and its one of my favourite ever programmes. Quite fun spotting the areas of Glasgow, particularly the bits they try to pass off as London. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/young-persons-guide-to-becoming-a-rock-star
  5. I like to think of it as a no lose situation Motherwell win - GIRFUY Celtic win - 2 weeks extra rest for Dons and less chance of a Bohemiens/ Skonto Riga incident. But I will be hoping its a Steelmen win. I like to think Rodgers grip on the SPFL is starting to crack and not winning the treble would nicely stock the paranoia of the Tic given they shipped 24points from last season and lost that unbeaten home record. Should they fail to make the Champions league (or better yet the Europa league) the natives will start getting restless.
  6. Skip to 1:24
  7. Freddy Ljunberg Roy Keane Kolo Toure Joey Barton Niko Kranjcar All turned up towards the end of their careers to much 'excitement' and press masturbation and were found wanting. One really robbed celtic blind too. But then again footballers are not known for their intellects. I do admire Defoe but my cynical mind says the EPL refs give alot of protection to their players which even with OF bias is not the same North of the border. I feel a certain Mr Brown & Mr Shinnie and most of the Motherwell & Hearts team would give him a welcome he hasn't experienced since his youth days. Torres ain't leaving Athletico Madrid for anything other than an MLS pay off. I had to google the other one
  8. Watch english lower league football for a season and then make a judgement
  9. Partick staring relegation in the face 2-1 defeat away to Livi tonight and supposedly they were shocking. Livi's away record is better than their home record too
  10. Finished with 4th Best Attack (after Sevco, Tic & Brazil 1970) and 2nd Best defence (after the Tic) Scored 18 fewer goals (Dingus being punted by Motherwell didnt help ) and conceded 2 more than last season. For the other clubs the tic ended up scoring 33 goals less than last season. Here's to that trend continuing
  11. Alloa promoted to the 'Championship' Scored their 'equaliser' in the 93rd minute then got the winning goal 5mins into extra time.
  12. Strikers: May 5 Rooney 11 Storey 1 Midfielders: Christie 8 Mackay-Steven 9 McGinn 2 Mclean 11 Ross 1 Stewart 3 Shinnie 4 Wright 1 Defenders: Arnason 2 Considine 4 Logan 2 McKenna 2 O'Connor 2 Reynolds 1 Own Goals: 1
  13. Orrrr The draws with Hearts (x2), Kilmarnock, Hamilton, Partick, & Hibs (12 points dropped)
  14. 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_widdows (73 points - Flawless Victory. Nothing questionable about it at all)
  15. Dear God!!! :ultras: :ultras: :ultras: :ultras:
  16. Lee Miller will feature in the Playoff Final next Thursday. Have to say I think Partick will steamroller through those two games
  17. Yes it was
  18. Maynard robbed I see
  19. Would be so sweet if they managed that
  20. Looks like Hibs are 'Hibs-ing' it tonight. If they don't get at least a point they kiss goodbye to 2nd and the only way they can get 3rd will be to beat Sevco 6-0.
  21. 84 - MBT 83 - Nellie The Don 82 - EdmontonDandy 81 - rocket 80 - Ten Caat 79 - Big Al 78 - Rico 77 - Oxford Don 76 - Wee Toon Red 75 74 - Tyrant 73 - Tom Widdows 72 - Elgindon 71 - manc 70 69 - Jute 68 67 66 - Wi_09 65 Pulling a 'Rico' here
  22. Neither of those are fully enclosed. The only current fully enclosed stadiums in scotland are celtic park and hampden
  23. Crowd was only 5610. Tickets were priced at £15, £10, & £5 for the under 12s but I wonder if more would have turned up had it been £10,£5 & free?
  24. Stage 1 Building warrant for Phase 1 was registered on 25th April Be interested to see if this one jumps the queue at the Council Building Control Office
  25. Arabs currently 3-2 down at home to Livingston. Livi scored in the 2nd minute only for the Arabs to equalise instantly then go in 2-1 up at half time Livi then scored 2 goals in 3 minutes. Willo Flood just been sent off for the arabs too I know there are the arguments that its better for Scottish football to have the arabs in the top league (seems those arguments are never quite as vocal for their city rivals) and I'm no fan of Livingston but I am enjoying their current exile
