The Thick of It returns on 8th September: http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/proginfo/2012/37/The-Thick-of-It.html http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2012/jul/12/the-thick-of-it-leveson?newsfeed=true

I suppose the ball boy should be grateful that it was only his eye.

This wouldn't be a good thing but I wonder if AFC will consider moving into Aberdeenshire, seeing as it appears nigh on impossible to get a major project built in the City. Yesterday was an appalling day for the City of Aberdeen. Labour wankers.

Number of people who voted for the CGP: 42K Number of people voting for Labour at the last Council elections: 16K

It wasn't the best of the proposals from the short list, but going against a public vote will haunt the council for a long time. Very concerned about various projects being binned (UTG redevelopment, AFC stadium, 3rd Don crossing).

Correct, it would be far easier for the US to extradite him from the UK. If he goes to Sweden then the US need both the permission from the Swedes and the UK to extradite him. He has a case to answer and if he really stands for the truth he should be going to Sweden to answer the charges.

You were saying that when he was still with us.

It seems the Labour council are intent on binning a number of projects (3rd Don crossing, AFC's new stadium, City Gardens Project). No wonder nothing ever gets built in this city. Its the same councillors who have delivered very little over the last 30 years that keep getting voted back in!

There is a very good piece in the New Statesman about the legal myths surrounding Assange: http://www.newstatesman.com/blogs/david-allen-green/2012/08/legal-myths-about-assange-extradition

They're not the best are they?

Why do people find it difficult to believe that, despite what good Wikileaks has done, that Assange, just might, might, not be a very nice person? He should be punted to Sweden to face the music, and not use conspiracy theories about the States to shield some reasonably serious charges he faces in Sweden IMHO my honest opinion. As for George Galloway? Jesus wept, what a professional gob shite.

Definitely. Preece was a much improved keeper from working with Leighton. In short, BigAl's lost it.

He'd make a decent backup to Langfield.

Man U to sign Kaka apparently. A few years too late perhaps?

This. I certainly don't remember anybody getting carried away when we re-signed him.

Very encouraging highlights. Difficult to tell whether Vernon was offside or not but two great headers nonetheless. Young Fraser looks good!

30 years ago today. Aberdeen 7 (Black, Strachan, Hewitt, Simpson, Own Goal, McGhee, Kennedy) Sion 0 Team: Leighton, Kennedy, McMaster, Simpson, McLeish, Miller, Strachan, Black (Weir), McGhee, Bell (Rougvie), Hewitt.

Levein played 4-6-0. Del Bosque played 4-3-3. Del Bosque won Euro 2012. Levein is a cunt.

I walk past the gardens every day, there is never anyone in them.

Dixon's apparently left the BBC, surely to fuck he's not gone to ITV - he must be fucking mad!? EDIT: http://www.itv.com/sport/football/article/2012-07-20/itv-announce-lee-dixon-as-new-football-pundit/
