  1. Easy for me to say as a fan but selling off your sporting advantage of being the home side isn't something that's worth it in my opinion. The double away section that the bigots used to get at Pittodrie seems unthinkable now and not just because we're selling more tickets to home fans. Even if we weren't I would rather have those seats empty than fill them with away fans that may help give our opponents any sort of boost. Fuck that. If I were a J I would indeed be raging. The only sort of mitigating circumstance that I could think of would be if the club (like ICT for example) are fighting for their very existence which, as far as I know no club in the top division is.
  2. Don't agree that he rode his luck. No fouls that he committed on Saturday were worthy of more than the single yellow card that he got. Motherwell players hitting the deck as soon as they're within spitting distance of Gueye doesn't constitute him riding his luck IMO. I thought Gueye was good at the weekend. I do note that I appear to be in the minority there right enough. I thought his play was mostly tidy and he causes defenders problems. And as you say I think we might need his physicality.
  3. Agreed. I was actually put off when I heard it was a Netflix thing because as you say much of their stuff (recently at least) is shite but there is the odd exception. This being one of them. Also watched A Thousand Blows recently too. Another Stephen Graham one (Although I think this one is Sky Atlantic rather than Netflix? Could be wrong). It's OK. A genuinely struggled with the Jamaican accents at times though.
  4. Problem with this is that more often than not he is the one not up to expectations. Passing often very slack and gives the ball away a lot. But you're right about him bollocking others (for doing the same thing). I'd still rather have Shinnie as captain. Unless his role is to change to a bit part one.
  5. That was my thought once the feeling of betrayal subsided. A very replaceable player. Now it's up to the club to make that replacement happen and I'm confident that they will.
  6. I have never seen anything to back up this unfortunately.
  7. I was at that game and never even noticed him.

    Thoughts to his beneficiaries. 12 years in a nursing home will take a heavy toll on their inheritance!
  9. Hibs have been fucking rank all season. Shite manager and clueless board. Polar opposite of us this season. But something tells me that it's not going to be the routine win for us that the teams' forms suggest. JMG.
  10. BBC Gossip column saying that the cost of the new grun is no longer £50m but £80m. I will not name the "source" out of principle but that's Duk's price tag gone up drastically.
  11. Then JT will still be this year's love.
  12. The traffic has been a pain in the arse too. Can't wait until we're shite again so we get hame quicker.
  13. The last away game I was at (not including away games at Hampden ) was Killie away in the Scottish cup aboot the day before Covid closed the world. It was a good one, admittedly!
  14. I'll step aside and let the real fans get their tickets sorted for this one.
  15. Got a source for any of that stuff?
  16. Please to be enlightening me. This is news to me. Personally I believe that economics is the last thing you should be thinking about when tackling climate change. Not much point in having a strong economy under water unless we evolve gills post haste. I can't really be arsed explaining the importance of admitting there's a problem to someone who appears to be much more pedantic than they are stupid. Whether there's a solution or not I don't know but there are countless steps that can be taken in the right direction. And the first one is not pretending that it doesn't exist because it doesn't suit your agenda. Or maybe they just can't be arsed. When Covid became too much of an inconvenience they just decided to pretend it didn't exist. After all it was only the weak that were dying. I happen to agree that EVs aren't the answer on their own but again they are a step in the right direction. The carbon footprint of EVs is an overplayed card but the more widespread they become the smaller the carbon footprint of each car will become. Personally I believe the aviation and shipping industry have to take much of the responsibility as well as manufacturing.
  17. OK I'll bite. Who's pretending to have a solution? Pretending that it doesn't exist is abhorrent because it's your kids, grandkids and great grandkids that you're fucking over for short time gain either political or financial. Acknowledging that it exists is the first fucking step to take at least. But now the right won't even do that. The republicans over there make the Tories here seem fucking progressive.
  18. It's the Republican head-in-the-sand stance on human accelerated climate change that I find utterly abhorrent (as well as the bat shit crazy stance on guns and abortion related healthcare) that means I would have voted for fucking Mr. Bean before 34 x convicted felon, sex offender and pathological liar Donald J Trump.
  19. So they voted in Donald Trump?
  20. Next you'll be telling me Ron DeSantis is a fine upstanding politician and a credit to your new home state of Florida and not one of the worst human beings that has ever lived full stop period.
  21. Any chance of a transcription for those of us with failing eyes?
  22. Just me that thought McGarry looked really decent (going forward at least) when he first came to AFC?
  23. Painful one, this. I could barely bring myself to acknowledge the existence of football, let alone browse a football forum. I gave up as soon as the 3rd went in so I can't really comment on how we played after that. A day to forget all round. Big test for the manager coming up. A defeat was always going to come along sooner or later but to lose by 6 was brutal. JT rallying the troops and getting a win versus Dundee on Saturday is a must.
  24. JMG Might as well bin him now. He's bound to lose games eventually.
  25. I think it looks naff. And as someone else has already said the trainers look more Hearts orientated. But since the biggest size they come in is 12 it rules me out anyway even if I did like them. This stuff is marketed at the Stone Island mob surely? They think nothing of spending hunners on clothes so this is probably cheap to them.
