AGAIN You auld fucker, even I'm only a grandad once

Bit up and down to be honest, my father survived a serious illness, tragically lost my brother in law at far too young an age, and became a grandfather for the first time in late October. On the job front and the AFC it has just been pretty much different year, same shite. 2012 is going to be a big year for me

Good man, knew you would

Sally's seconds....ah that is disgusting mate

Christian, can't believe you took the time to actually do that You seem however to have missed the short one standing behind the conductor. Is she just a "lucky dip"

Signed eighteen month deal with the Hivs Next

SHATTERED Ryan Stevenson dramatically walked out on Hearts last night — and has told the club he is no longer willing to play for them. The Jambos star dropped the bombshell news on boss Paulo Sergio yesterday as the squad's wages war with owner Vladimir Romanov claimed its first high-profile victim. SunSport can reveal that Stevo, who has six months left on his contract, has effectively withdrawn his services and no longer wishes to be considered for selection. The player's morale has hit rock bottom as he cares for pregnant wife Hannah, who is expecting their first child, while being given no indication when he will next be paid. And he is now hoping to agree some kind of severance deal with Tynecastle officials that will allow him to find another employer. The 27-year-old became Jim Jefferies' first signing on his return to the club in January 2010 and became an instant hit with the Hearts support. That saw him extend his deal by another 12 months in the summer, and Stevenson has gone on to become a regular under Sergio. Now, though, he has become so disillusioned by events at Tynecastle that he believes his controversial decision is the only answer. The player made high-ranking club officials aware of his feelings yesterday as well as boss Sergio and is not expected to attend training at Riccarton today. And SunSport understands Stevenson's refusal to play will stand even if Romanov insists the player sees out the final months of his deal. It now appears a January compromise, which would at least see Hearts earn some money for the player, is in the best interests of both parties. But his move, which comes just 24 hours after Eggert Jonsson left for Wolves and two days after Andrew Driver handed in a transfer request, is sure to shock Hearts fans. And it is also sure to put a number a number of clubs on alert with Bristol City boss Derek McInnes a confirmed admirer. Meanwhile, Jonsson admits he couldn't wait to join up with former Hearts team-mate Christophe Berra. He said: "As soon as I knew of Wolves' interest I was really excited. "I've been in Scotland for a long time and feel ready to take the next step. Wolves is a great club for me to do that."

In that case.......NEXT Or alternatively we have an Irish International striker on our books that we could offer as a swap

Calderwood tried on at least two seperate occassions that I know of to take Boyd to Pittodrie whilst he was still at Rugby Park. However for someone of a Rangers persuassion the second they expressed an interest he was only going to one place and that wasn't us

Seems pretty fair comments to me. Anyone who wants to charge onto the pitch to attack a player, frankly deserves a kicking, and the boy got off lightly in my opinion given the fact the keeper didn't catch him as cleanly as he could have.

Not as far as I'm aware yet. Think he admitted to making a mistake on Saturday not several of them

In/Oot: Oot Pre match: Doing feck all Match: Radio or maybe picking up a stream Post match: Nae idea Prediction: 1-1 Attendance: 4,142

Apparently the official line is Thomson has admitted he made a mistake in awarding the penalty and it'll cost AFC cash to appeal something they don't believe they can win. Well and truely rogered once again, and Pawlett gets a reputation of being a diver

Hands up all those that didn't see this coming Scottish football in appeasement to Rangers shocker

No denying that this was a great night. Reading folk stating that this was their greatest moment supporting AFC only serves to reiterate just how far we've sunk o'er the years. I reckon if I'm honest this match doesn't even make it into my top ten. However the European trip this victory earned us certainly does make it into my top ten on European soil

I should fucking think so.......queue all the bears moaning about this and greeting if the compliance officer doesn't take action over the penalty incident

20111219. Boyd leaving Turkey Scotland striker departs Eskisehirspor after unhappy spell Last Updated: December 19, 2011 2:12pm . Kris Boyd has terminated his contract with Turkish club Eskisehirspor and has started legal proceedings against them for alleged loss of earnings. The Scottish Premier League's all-time highest goalscorer has left the club only five months after he signed a lucrative three-year contract from Middlesbrough. Boyd's agent, Mark Donaghy, has confirmed that the former Rangers and Scotland striker will be available to join another club in next month's transfer window. "Kris has triggered a release clause in his contract." Donaghy told Sky Sports News. Legal process "His contract has been terminated because of late payments and a legal process is now under way. He will now head back to the UK." It's believed Boyd has yet to receive a monthly salary from Eskisehirspor after he received a signing-on fee in July. Eskisehirspor are currently five points behind leaders Galatasaray, and are understood to have made repeated requests for Boyd to stay. Boyd featured in just two games for Eskisehirspor during his stint with the club - playing just 76 minutes of football all season. ============================================ Anyone fancy a wager on where he'll end up. That give Rankgers the excuse to punt Jelly Belly for a few quid and replace him with a cheap option

Exactly, another chance to curry favour missed by Stewarty

I thought he was back in full training a few weeks ago Agree it all seems to have gone quiet about him again

Almost moved to tears reading that A very sad reflection of just how things have really declined Hat off to all those involved

Welcome to the board loon, get yourself properly introduced in here, http://www.donstalk.co.uk/messageboard/index.php?topic=64.0

Imagine Brown will come out with his typical "I'm not going to blame the officials"

WTF Pawlett off That is a shocklng decision by the linesman. Pawlett attempted to block the pass and it was his trailing leg that made contact. High time we did a Lennon and stood up for ourselves. We are seriously being cheated by the officials

Missed the first half hour, what happened to Chalali

Scott Vernon Looks a very soft penalty award, but hey ho time we got a break
