How did you know that ?

It was the sticky carpet that did it.

You weren't invited. We have only just got rid of the scent of vegas, last thing we need is you lot coming back.

Fair point. They let us down again at 1:15am on tuesday night. With the Celtic game being shown 'as live' on Santa TV we were just going into the second half when they turfed us out. I think they were afraid what might have happened had we been witness to Dazzers dazzling goal again after a crate of beer was demolished on the train back.

You deserted our spiritual home several Easter Road trips ago for Middletons you lying raspberry ripple.

With 4 of them in there the odds are good that we will rue one of them playing against us. If John Stewart is that man then our entire team should just give up football. I'm more inclined to expect his expert back control on to be on display

Eat me bitch.

Where you the guy who was talking to me about bricks and the craggs ? Its all fallen into place now. Last years festival with a certain prolific poster on here yeah ? I knew I recognised your face but was too pissed and delerious for it to click. Couldn't understand what you were saying, thought you had me mixed up with someone else. Have you taken care of any ladies of the night recently?

I left at 1am when the Globe turfed us out. Can I be gay ?

FuckinA.

Any ideas how ticket sales have gone for this ? Last I heard we might have sold 1000-ish including supporters clubs ?

The corresponding fixtures have brought us a reasonable haul of points so there is reason, however scant, to believe that we can do it. First set - 7 from 9 points Second set - 7 from 9 points Only draws with Falkirk have stopped us from getting all 9 on both occasions. If we do what we have done twice already and take full points from ICT and St Mirren then the Falkirk game is likely to be a 6 pointer which I'm sure we will take care of at Pittodrie.

Let the entire event pass without an iota of concern for the outcome. That's my strategy. However, if pushed I'd possibly take the bloody minded attitude that a UTD win will boost their confidence and that equals bad for us. I don't want to discuss what that means for who wins

I'm reasonably confident. All the other teams in the top 7-8 have harder run ins than us and play each other quite a bit. I am certain UTD willl take at least a point from Hearts at Tynecastle, they have nailed them the last two games scoring four goals, not to mention their 4 against us there. Think Falkirk and Hearts will draw next week putting us in a good position if we can get the 3 points against St Mirren. Then if Hearts and UTD draw and Falkirk win and we beat ICT then we can beat Falkirk to secure top 6. Key game for us is ICT. Confident.

Lets be honest. The SPL will clutch at any straw to ensure they don't have to face the embarrassment of readjusting points. If Gretna make it to the split I'm certain they will consider it parity, just because they can.

If they make it to the split everyone will have played them 3 times and so it would be considered back to a level playing field I think. No adjustments required ?

AS much as I hate UTD what have been the last two results at Tynecastle when they have come calling again ?

Not sure its quite as simple as saying that because previous clubs have been treated differently then Gretna should have to follow the same rules. These rules that force small clubs to meet what is quite a tough standard in order to enter our top league are generally perceived as out of line with common sense and the SPL are under a lot of pressure to change them. Its difficult to then say that if they are set up as the rules at one point then for the rest of time they must be adhered to. Also think that teams who 'buy their way' to success are looked upon in some shady light but at the end of the day why shouldn't they be able to do it, it's their risk ? If you go setting 'rules' to stop clubs from structuring their finances a certain way as well as their stadiums then where does the discipline stop ? Who decides what these financial rules are. If football goes down the road of barriers to entry based on rich benifactors bank rolling clubs then welcome to a Scottish football league with about half a dozen clubs in its top 2 leagues ? A large number of football clubs are only viable due to the financial support of an individual or collection of. Gretna have been guilty of over cooking the thing by some impressive amount. I am not saying I feel sorry for Gretna or that I applaud how they have gone about things, just think we need to step back a bit and think. If anyone deserves the finger being pointed its Mileson. What a clown that man has been to take the club where it is knowing full well the withdrawal of his support would only leave the club and the SPL in one place. Utter moron playing boyish games where peoples lives are affected. Must be time for the Lithuanian State Circus to roll into town again for some top notch entertainment

Is anyone else worrying about this game ? Its exactly the sort of game our big-shot stars will stroll into thinking its a done deal and they will meet with a team of players looking to teach the world a lesson. We better show no mercy. As an aside, I noticed in the paper today Paul Lambert is opening a 'Celtic section' at Wycombe for their game against Chester to try and entice English-based tims to support the club. Maybe Hibs and Motherwell could get a section for Gretna home games to preserve their 9 points

Story on BBC site now about SPL bosses 'rallying' to support Gretna. Some cock and bull about families and mortgages, its oh so sincere . How long before we get the huns coming out in support of their 3 point lead...er....I mean the families of the players and then Motherwell offering support by keeping their 9 points...er...I mean waving the ground share costs.......aren't sanctimony and self preservation such beautiful bed fellows.

The administrators or Gretna cannot decide to postpone this fixture. Only the SPL. If they can't show up then they are fucked. No second chances. Cancel all points and let the race for 3rd commence in ernest......YYAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSS.

My thoughts exactly. Send the fucking clown onto Dragons Den, let Duncan Ballantyne tell the fucker why his idea isn't gonna wash its own face. Are these people mental ?...I'm out.

If you owed somebody £100 and they had just been hit by a bus and expected not to make it through the night would you be busy transferring the cash into their account ? The key question for the SPL is whether its better to pour good money into a hole or to avoid the utter shambles of readjusting peoples points tally and facing the wrath of teams like Hibs and Motherwell who will really suffer from this move. Personally I think they will try to ensure that Gretna fulfill their fixtures to the split and then decree that everyone has had a fair crack at them and they can now crawl into a hole and die.
