Am I right in thinking that 390 was specifically Scottish football

You'll need to be of a certain vintage to remember the good old days in the 80's & 90's before the explosion of the internet and instant news to appreciate this. If you are you'll recollect the excitement of constantly refreshing teletext to get updated football scores and also the latest football news. I was sent this by a mate down south as he thought I'd be interested. Someone has re-created the teletext features and pages as an app for your mobile and although in its infancy it is expected to grow as more and more features are added. I suspect it'll only be of interest to the older ones of us that remember it from its halcyon days. Many a game, particularly midweek ones when there was no radio coverage and this was the only means to get instant (well fairly instant updates) on how your team were getting on. Page 302 was the BBC football index page. ITV brought out a service also, memory seems to tell me their home page might have been 140 I've downloaded and will be using it in the future Anyone else got memories of teletext usage for the football

Given Yengi & Ambrose both scored this afternoon against Ross County can we expect Jimmy to start them up front together on Saturday The other goal in the 3-0 victory was by youngster Sam McLean

Robert Redford, American actor and producer aged 89. Loved his films Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid, The Sting & All The President's Men.

As an aside, I have zero recollection of us having a player called David Lawrie being with us during the 80's but from what I can see online he was a goalkeeper but left to pursue a career out with football and went to Robert Gordon's. Anyone else mind anything about him ?

Funny as that would be, unfortunately I can see the obvious flaw in that plan -
As I've started two match threads this season., both of them being cup games and the only games we've avoided defeat in, thought I'd get in early and start this one. Motherwell this season seem to like a draw, so expect this one to be pretty close and may not see a decisive outcome within the regulation time. Frankly we can't be choosy how we get it, we just need to get the victory. A fortuitous deflection of someone's arse in the 96 minute would be welcome. Out Golf Red TV (hope to fuck it is a damn site better than the Livingston game) Half the time it froze, another part of the time it showed the Falkirk v St Mirren game) 1-1 Lazetic, with us winning on penalties Absolutely no idea.

The balance in the credit column is decreasing week on week. I really have nothing else to say right now.

No shots on goal in the first forty five Seriously need to up the ante here otherwise can see a sucker punch incoming as Livi look to time waste at every opportunity and hope to hit us on the counter
-
Not adverse to that line up to be honest. Noticed immediately that you had the team a man down and just assumed we were going for three red cards in a row, but this time some how the bastard in black had shown us a red during the warm up to complete the set of laughable decisions

Apparently was a known issue and sorted now

Farewell Ester, had high hopes for him when he signed but maybe that's only because he looked more than a little like the cunt that is now a Hun. Never quite happened for him but a couple of his goals stand out, at home v Frankfurt and away at Easter Road. Good luck with the rest of your career.

Good luck to Tony Docherty in his new role as Ross County manager. Always liked Doc and thought he was very badly treated at Dens
