Tyrant

Don't agree with that. I wouldn;t even call that a lunge to be honest. A booking at the most in my opinion. We still got what we deserved from the game and I don't believe McArdle staying on the park would have resulted in a win.

If you're not with us you're against us.

May I add, as if we didn't already know, Scottish Football = Joke. And not even a funny one. More a pathetic one.

But then that plays into Lennon's claim that only Celtic are being treated poorly by refs. And if they target only Celtic the death mob will be making their threats again.

Timing belt slipping and snapping are two different things by the sounds of things and would therefore require different methods of repair. The fact is if my timing belt goes, I replace it and continue to drive. German cars tend to have interference belts so if they snap then you better have some money left over for the repair. Not saying it's a huge deal because anyone should be maintaining their motor and changing the belts when recommended but this is one of the points that to me shows that the Jap engineering is that bit more clever and their engines are known for their durability. Rattling? When I bought my Polo it had the loudest rattle I'd ever heard! It was a cheap and easy fix but rattles normally are. The hardest part is isolating them. It's complete nonsense to try to imply for a minute that the part in bold is prone to happening to Japanese cars in particular. All cars develop rattles and such like when they're 10-20 years old. I'd bet there are more 90's "ricers" on the roads still than 90's German cars down to be better engine quality and durability. Dated looks etc is all down to personal preference at the end of the day. Not really sure at the point you're making about the cars being assembled here? The ones for Britain and Europe may be assembled here but they're still designed at HQ in Japan and there are still massive Honda, Mazda and Mitsubishi plants in Japan. They don't get us to build their cars and ship them over there. BT have tech support in India and get the vast majority of their products manufactured abroad. The "type of drivers" argument could again be applied to pretty much any remotely desirable brand/model of performance (but affordable) car. All opinions. Car enthusiats will always enjoy pushing their cars.

I can almost understand Alfas. They're a bit different but like all affordable Italian cars there's no reliability so fuck 'em. 99% of new cars look gash and have inferior performance to their older siblings. For example the new Civics are slower and uglier than the previous generation Civics. It's partly due to stricter emissions guidelines I think (hope). In the 90's Japan easily produced the world's finest and most reliable motors which is why you still see so many of them today. German/Jap? Each to their own. Jap owns German every day of the week for me. For looks, reliability and quality. Little things like my current Mazda having a non-interference engine (meaning if the cam belt snaps you won't need a new engine as it does no damage) whereas my Polo (whilst it turned out to be very reliable) had an interference engine so that if the cam belt went the engine would need to be replaced (as it would be cheaper than repairing the damage) make all the different in my opinion. Better engineering.

Or for people who like cars with a soul and character.

Funcy a job, Eck?

Is the wrong answer. The Japs make the words best handling and most reliable cars with the best build quality. German cars are OK. They're up there but they're generally vastly overrated. Now you know.

I'm immensely fucking bored of this fucking wedding already.

Can someone explain what a "rights issue" is?

Following on from a point that BTR made re Diamond I'd like to know why everyone is dying to bin him. Taking into account, that is, that we're not going to replace him. We have an awful history of not replacing players and when we do they're not as good. Hartley replacing Kerr is one of the exceptions to that. Diamond was and still can be a good player. He's currently going through a "blip" in form but he was decent and you don't become shite over the course of one season. He needs a Russell Anderson or a Scott Severin to play alongside but if he's got that he's class. Even getting on the score sheet now and then. I've been thoroughly unimpressed with his Facebook antics recently and admit that when I found out about that coupled with his poor form I was one of the ones that would have been happy to kick his arse out the door but I'm now convinced that he can regain his form (whether that be under McGhee or someone else) and be an asset once again. I know it's difficult to justify us carrying a player who's been off form for so long but as I alluded to earlier I have absolutely no faith in AFC bringing in a replacement that's going to be up to the level that Diamond was at a season or two back. Obviously this is all completely irrelevant because there's no danger he'd stay for less money. He'll get a move to Englandshire.

Off the top of my head there was a 4-0 win against Hibs where I seems to remember Diamond scoring at least one at the RDS end. I'm there there was a guy called Jimmy Calderwood that masterminded that one.

4/1

But surely if he joined us with such reluctance he would have just preferred to stay where he was and pick up his wage? It was us wot done it because he came here on loan and was largely successful. At the time it was a good move. Obviously the club's staff should have foreseen the future and saw his dip in form.

Sounds like this is a player that we could really get on the cheap.

In or Oot? In - I'm with us - not against us. Pre-match? Home and/or Northern Golf Club Match? Upper deck. Post-Matcher? Hame. Predition? 3-1 Dons.

Wasn't he under contract at Brum? He could have stayed there and continued to either try and break into their first team or use them as a shop window. He wanted to join us. He seemed to like working with JC.

Not good news at all about Darren. He's always been a player that I seem to have rated above most others. I like his style (whilst admittedly not awe inspiring). Always causes a nuisence of himself and leaves the foot in. Quite a brave player too. Best of luck, Daz.

Awful decision but I agree with this. Let's now show the team some support. McGhee might not be the one that our support is directed at but it has to be directed towards the players.

Byrne was £40k as far as I know. And Tommy Wright £75k.
