Pretty sure the psychiatrist would caution against the good kicking option. It's not the done thing these days apparently. Giving the quack a good kicking in front of Paton and then threatening to do him next might be the strategy that gets him to break down and start greeting like a bairn. Easy job to re-build him after that.

This makes sense to me with the proviso that he's not naturally shite. Too many excellent contributions in the past e.g. Dundeh, perfect ball into Miller for 1-0 v huns, that cracker in the 4-4 v. tic, Easter Rd etc. I reckon it must be his attitude and/or work ethic.

I watched The Devil's Advocate last night with my daughter. It was a waste of my time but it's fun to waste time as long as it's very occasionally. Pacino is good.

You may be a prophet, like Mohamed. As this is Ramadan, I would be inclined not to play him until after dusk so that he can get a fish supper, heavily spiced in cumin doon his neck first. A second half sub is my rec.

The crux will be the sweet Marie who waits for me substitute but yes, good forseeance.

Muslim striker joins third rate club in a fifth rated league. Can't imagine he's going to be brilliantly good but hey, remember Zero.

Excuse my thickness today but what points probably go against us?

So are you two saying that our club is well run compared to others? We don't pay other than to two directors and what we do pay is less than Hibs pay for example? Is this your point? If not, what is?

The most interesting words in that statement were these: - "To fully realise this ambition, the club will have to be more successful in fully engaging the supporters, sponsors and other investors and I am honoured to be invited to make a contribution." When a football club admits that it has had a problem with it's relations with it's fans (as our chairman also acknowledged in writing almost 3 years ago), it admits that it doesn't understand who the biggest customer base is and admits that it pursues an alternative agenda. It should be a given that the board and the fans all want the same thing. This new reference to "the product", the same reference as Milne used in the Capitol 15 years ago, suggests that the last decade and a half has been well and truly lost. The reasons for those lost years don't disappear with the addition of a couple of oily stooge foils with zero voting power.

MOTD EPL is a bit fruity tonight. Joey Barton eh? E's a lad. Arsene has photies of 86.2% of Gooner ST holders in compromising positions. Sexually, of course. Kenny Dalglish, after a decade of mothballness, is proving able to do a job. Steve Bruce is still very boring and uninspirational. Davie Moyes is an intelligent loser. Mark Lawrenson is frightening to both young females and very old grannies. Hansen has an identity complex. Chelsea owner's personal integrity continues to affect the clubs karma. Gary Lineker will die a broken man. Nothing changes really. Same old. Same old.

yeah well sort of agree with you but still a part of me dies every time a forceful reminder like this tells us how ridiculously bad AFC have become.

All this shows is the chasm-like gulfiness between the two teams and the respective leagues that they come from.

That surprises us not but good investigative journalistic work to expose/prove it.

Doom Gloom Gloom Doom Moon Soon Boon Soon Loon. Not enough energy to hit the panic button.

I'm not watching as a) I'm not at home, b) these people are so nice I don't want to exert even the slightest by asking if they have Canal+ or Canal+ Golf or whatever and c) I don't give a fuck. But seeing the scores on tinternet, my instinctive reaction was Good. Now I need to soul search to find out what, if anything, I've got against Tiger Woods. Nope. Couldn't be fucked doing that either. Slates Tiges.

Agree re Osbourne. Jury oot. Was a potential bombscare the first 10 minutes but settled. Zero pace is a worry but hopefully will think and run quicker with more games.

Jesus Christ. If you say so. I guess dave_min must also be seeking attention? On topic, I was a huge fan of Seve at AFC until his last 2.5 seasons. I think he wasn't helped by weak management but he lost both his fitness and his appetite for the game. I find it an unforgivable offence to play for AFC and not try to give your best. Whilst he was by no means on his own here and was part of the vast majority, he was symptomatic of the loser culture that was allowed to infect the club.

I didn't "feel the need". I was bored and there was fuck all else being discussed. Anyway, is registering a position of apathy on a specific point not a valid contribution?

The size of my care factor is surprisingly, and possibly inhumanely, negligible.

Vernon so slow so far. Magennis all feet and thumbs and like too many in the squad, just can't play football. Milsom and Pawlett working real hard and have excellent quality. Mackie busting a gut but no result as usual. Gonzalez so much better than Clangfool. 85 minutes gone and still nowhere near enough chances getting created and tough to see where any goals are ever going to come from. 88 minutes and congrats to Bambi Considine who is still on the park. All over. Hard to take any consolation from that. I refuse to accept "at least it wasn't a hammering" as a sign of progress.

Pity. Looks like Foster has ruined the day with his stupidity, a frequent lack of concentration being the preserve of the thick.

The Open champion is playing with Tiger in Rd 1 at Akron just now. Woods hasn't played for a while. If there was any doubt about the quality of Tiger, this Rd is removing any doubt. He may only be one under just now but he's just so much better than Darren Clarke in every aspect of the game, it's frightening. Padraig's looking fud-like... again.

Wish our club developed talent sufficiently that anyone would want to buy them, let alone the OF. Or at least traded even semi-intelligently in the player market.

Most certainly. The enthusiasm of his direct thinking is refreshing... "fools and idiots".

That's just blown my theory oot the watter. I don't give a shit what goes on it that fud's heid, his face alone is screaming punch me.
