  1. happened to us at Easter Road some years ago, sitting in a pub up beside where the buses park and Hibs casuals came in. They picked on a scarfer again, who had his back to them, and put a bottle over his head. A few of us fought them and they backed off. Unfortunately, these cretins seemed rather upset that their blood had ruined their burberry shirts, and when we left the pub for the ground they were waiting for us on London Road with a whole load of their mates. Needless to say, I made it to the ground in record breaking time that day...
  2. that's the one GD.
  3. aye, ask him if he accepts Provi cheques, eh? Cheers
  4. Totally agree Al. Tell Willie I'm asking for him when you email him.
  5. no danger, MBT. From the obviously limited footage i've seen of Clark on video/DVD i'd say that both were better and by a fair distance. Game has changed enormously right enough.
  6. just my good looks and sparkling personality... oh, wait..
  7. Voronin is clearly a good player though, scored a lot of goals in the Bundesliga last season. Babel also looks like a much better player in the few times i've seen him with Holland. A lot of it points to Benitez not being able to get the best out of the players he has. Jermain Penant said last week that although Rafa is a good manager, he tries to control every little thing and never lets players play to how they like to. He's so obsessed with this ProZone stuff too. Kenny Dalglish has said that if he was a player under Benitez he'd never get a game because his ProZone stats wouldn't be good enough. Science will only do so much for you, ye know?
  8. thing is though, ally, he also seems incapable of making a successful 5 yard pass.
  9. Was born in Falkirk but grew up in cumbernauld, so really regarded as a weegie. I was a member of the Stirling Reds.
  10. The weegie reds have their own site? I take it that's where TF has gone to? And I'm a weegie, FJ... I actually think I'm about the only "real" weegie on here now.
  11. Mahou is beautiful, even the 0% stuff they sell in the Bernabeu is excellent
  12. I think you can blame the manager for playing him out of position. Babel is a player who plays through the middle but Benitez continually plays him out wide. Why buy the guy if that's what you're going to do? Appears he wants another version of Dirk Kuyt...
  13. Yeah, shocker! who honestly thought it was 700k...? Crikey.
  14. Very much agree with you Kow. Goram was an excellent goalkeeper. However, for a large chunk (no pun intended) of his career, Goram was overweight. There are so many instances where this came into play, I remember one goal he lost in particular where a header went past him at his left shoulder. His weight meant that he couldn't get to it, but there was no suggestion in the press that he could have done better. And of course that then meant that the ones he did get to, he appeared to be struggling to get to them and all of a sudden it was the best save in the world... maybe it was the best save in the world by a goalkeeper nowhere near as fit as his peers. Goram's point blank reactions were fantastic and he certainly more or less won the huns matches against us on more than one occassion but Leighton pulled off saves Goram could only do in his dreams. Goram, I would say, was a flash goalkeeper. Never really wanted to catch the ball and all the finger tip saves over the bar and round the post always look better than the catches. But Leighton always caught the ball if he could. Jim Leighton is the bravest goalkeeper I've ever seen, and that contributed hugely to him also being the best I've ever seen. Snelders was probably "technically" better, but Leighton was just sheer natural ability. It was a sad indictment of the times that in his last season with us he was the only one worth the gate money to watch. Leighton, then Snelders, then Casillas are the best keepers I've seen in the flesh. Goram simply just doesn't get a look in.
  15. Nani is ding. That is all.
  16. http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/2702507/Goram-Craig-Brown-broke-my-heart.html There's loads more of this shite if you care to follow the link (i wouldn't advise it). He claims he deserved to play in 98 and not Leighton. If that's the case then it's equally the case that Leighton deserved to play in 96 and not that cuntstick. Also says that Aberdeen is a "side I have no love for", which comes as a relief more than anything. Having read some more of the excerpts of his "book", he is very, very eager to claim he is "not a bigot", which kinda suggests he's a bigot. One of the more despicable of the huns, certainly in the same bracket as Durrant, McCoist, Brown and Willie Johnstone.
  17. suppose that's true, but i think there has to be an acceptance that at times she's preaching to the choir.
  18. My problem with her Sharpie was that she refused to accept that a white person simply was not racist. That's a crock of shit, frankly. I agree that the way it was set up would effect those who have racist tendencies, but if you don't...? Some people don't need to be told or shown how horrific racism can be ye know? Her one stance on it was that "you can change your weight, your hair etc but you can't change your skin colour so you don't - and never will know - what it's like". that is probably right, but banging on about that makes it a pretty futile exercise, does it not?
  19. I watched that too Andrew and would say that the person with the biggest problem was the daft tart who was hosting it. Although that other blonde boot was a total cunt with a brain the size of a pea, I'd imagine.
  20. Good to see you've learned to let things go, Adam.
  21. I would say that he's an egomaniac. Too much of it has come across as "look at me, look at me". He has suggested previously that he couldn't afford to buy the Dons, and then suggested that he could do without the hassle of being involved at Aberdeen. If he couldn't afford to buy us, then surely he would just be an investor with perhaps a place on the board? What hassle would that have brought? Would it lump all of Milne's horrendous decisions from over the years squarely at his feet? Of course it wouldn't. He could also have chosen to invest in the club annonymously. All of it points to him wanting to be a media focal point. I could never invest in another football club but that's just a personal feeling. Paulinho is correct in that the man is a businessman first and foremost, but I'd also suggest there are far better ways of investing your money. Dundee FC is a plaything for him, it puts his name and face in the limelight which probably won't harm his other business interests.
  22. Lack of understanding of an incident you don't remember? I think you need your hole, lot of pent up aggression in your posts recently. (that's not an offer, by the way.)
  23. Ooof! bit tetchy these days aren't you sweetheart? If you had paid attention to the game you'd know the tackle in the box was on Carrick and wasn't from behind. It's not complicated. Who said it wasn't clear?
