Honda S2k. Fine for driving about town, and capable of some pretty mental handling. Great for a balls-out, top-down drive round some of our country roads. At least would be if summer ever decided to arrive.

Saw them at High Voltage last year, and heard they were touring new stuff this year. Got a chance to take a short detour to see them in Bulle next month. Was quite impressed with the Pressure and Time album - so might take a chance on them. Ta muchly.

Anyone go to see them at the Lemon Tree in March? If so - any good?

Foster: Play that badly against Celtic and we'll lose 9-0 again
Well Red replied to mizer's topic in Aberdeen Football Club
Before what, now? St Johnstone and St fkn Mirren. 1 fkn point against two of the smaller, weaker clubs in the division. If our season "hasn't started" yet that's our own fault. And if it's not started after those two games then we ARE fkn dismal. 2 new strikers please, Santa. And a Jim Bett. And a couple of proper centre backs wouldn't go amiss, if yon tooth fairy can lay it's hands on a couple of mil. -
Brown demands winning mentality from his players

Getting the Clangers replacement right's crucial. We've had umpteen attempts at getting someone in "to compete for the jersey" - and fkd them all up. We badly need someone in the defence - whether keeper or centre-back - with the balls to get grip of the back 4 /5. -
He could spend the entire 90 mins on the pitch v Brazil and see less of the ball than he did v NI.

Violinists: Pawlett - aye. Fyvie - not yet. Aluko looked the part once - but has gone backwards this season. Roadsweepers: Diamond. Mulgrew - if we could work out where to play him. Clangers. Paterson. Paton? McDonald and Kerr looked the part once - for other teams. Not quite roadsweepers: Ifil - tries hard to do the right thing...just lacking. Young - works hard enough...just lacking. Just shite: Considine. Lazy, up himself, stupid. Mackie. Zero composure. Grassi. Foster.

McGhee too scared to blame who he thinks the real slackers are?
Well Red replied to mizer's topic in Aberdeen Football Club
Absolutely. You don't even have to name names. "We didn't create enough in midfield" doesn't say whether Kerr's been utter piss, McLean didn't track back as he was asked, the oppos did something surprising or he just picked the wrong tactic. It just tells you he watched the same game you did. Not that I'm against the odd rocket. THe problems start when you watch two strikers apparently starved of supply get roasted. Were they told to do something else and didn't? Fk knows. You never know - it might work. Risky, though. -

Feck off, Dave. Look at the egg-chasers. England go to Italy, scrape a win, and Borthwock describes the performance "at times we played some outstanding rugby today." To mass ridicule, because it was plainly obvious they were shite. If Aberdeen are underperforming I don't want to hear a manager saying he's happy with the effort. I want a balanced review. At least then I have a degree of confidence that he realises there's a problem and will be doing something about it. All this "you can't criticise" pish gets on my tits. -
No. Read the fucking quote. Jesus fucking christ - I remember why I got pissed off with forums. I'm saying we should look at the reasons for this season being a write-off. And it IS a write-off, unless you think we can catch Hibs...that what you're saying? If McGhee's the reason for the bollox we've seen, or if the board think he's not the man to turn results round next season - fine, get rid. 2 points. 1 - that's for the board to decide, not the fucking media, and certainly not the fuckwits who self-appoint themselves "fan spokespeople." 2 - Next season, to give him a chance to spend the money we got for Miller sensibly, i.e. not in the transfer window when prices are overinflated. If the players are the problem - punt them. Simple. We KNOW we have an awul lot of pish in our 1st 11 just now. If there were better options and MM didn't take them, then he deserves all the flak he's getting. But we have a squad who consistently go out of cups to lower level opposition but draw with / beat the likes of Sellick. THAT smacks of a lack of professionalism. Why are we paying people to be unprofessional? THAT is madness.

Or have a look at his plans for close season. Who's he looking to bring in (presumably on a free). Whoever he brings in will have the same attitude problems to deal with - and even if they do, there's little chance of catching Hertz. This season's a write-off - so treat it as one. See what MM's plans are like - and if you don't like them, THEN you look at who's next in the managerial tombola. We don't want to turn into a QPR. Managers would have no reason to come here if they know they're going to get punted after 6 months results with someone else's team.

"Uneducated" doesn't matter. Clarke Carlisle won on Countdown, and had an absolute 'mare yesterday, at fault for the first goal and giving away both pens. Ifill isn't a footballer by any stretch of the imagination - but you can tell he's TRYING to do what he's been told. It just he's really not good enough. As opposed to Considine, who's got no fkn idea what being a defender is about. Is Ifill any "cleverer" than Andy? Fk knows - but I'd happily see both of them playing for whoever we were due to play against that week.

And WTF then? They gave the whinging bitches that are Aberdeen fans these days EXACTLY what they wanted when they punted JC and appointed the legend that is MM. And now what? Are the whinging bitches putting their hands up and saying "oopsy - we were wrong!" Are they fuck. Whinging bastards have been whinging so long and hard they've forgotten what the problem was. They're not whinging for the sake of it, it's just all they know how to do. "Get rid of MM." Right. So assume the board do that. And, again, appoint the "chosen one" of the FM2010 faithful. Then what? Take pelters when the class of '92 turn out to be a bunch of gobshite fuckwits? Again? Or - tell the fans to fuck off, and we'll appoint our own man this time. Thanks very much. And take pelters from the class of '92 whatever happens. Or - get the fuckwits in a room, tell them they got what they wanted, STFU and deal with it. Or do what they always do - and ignore the fuss. Slating MM for a season where our back 4 hasn't had a decent centre-back and we sold our outlet is nuts. Give the man at least a season with his own players - and see where we go. Personally, I'd rather see the back of half the first team than McGhee. Leave Fyvie, Pawlett, Paton. Give Aluko a kick in the arse and a deadline. Lose Considine, Foster, Grassi, Ifill, Mackie, Young, Kerr and McDonald. And see what we get to repllace them.

Threaten to bum them into last week. That way they know how they got there, they know what's coming next week, and they'd be stuck in a never-ending loop of being-bummed-dom.

Not old enough, and still too bitter. Bitterness is like a fine port. It strengthens and yet mellows and rounds out with age, and leaves a cnt of a mess if you spill it on the carpet. And when was the last time you saw a 1967 tawny give it the big keyboard hardman? I want to adopt him.
