We'll be gone by Monday morning, so hopefully you enjoy tomorrow: the last full day with our company.


It's been a fun season. From Falkirk fans breaking down on Boxing Day, to Dundee fans breaking down after a 1-1 draw in February, and back to Falkirk fans breaking down on national radio after a 2-1 defeat in March. We've been unbearably smug at times (alright, I've been unbearably smug at times) but the following achievements excuse the smugness:

• 24 point winning margin, with second place Dundee nearer to relegation than promotion.
  
• 34 games unbeaten, with only 1 league defeat all season.
  
• Best attack in the division by a considerable distance.
  
• Best defence in the division.
  
• The division's best manager and joint-best player.
  
• 200+ consecutive days at the top of the league.
  
• P&B's First Division Poster Of The Year being a Ross County fan.

Ross County FC:

The league's top goal scorer = Colin McMenamin (19 goals)
Best attack in the division (72 goals scored)
Best defence in the division (32 goals conceded)
Goal Difference = +40

34 league games unbeaten (equaling the second-tier record set in the 1950s by Airdrieonians). Eclipsing both Barcelona's and Manchester United's post-war unbeaten runs (according to the ever-reliable Wikipedia) - 31 and 33 games respectively.

A 24 point winning margin. Beating the 23 point record set by Hibs at this level in the 1990s.

From October 15th 2011 - GTF Day (May 27th 2012) = 219 days at the top of the table






Show some love for the Champions

I'm a Star Wars geek. No two ways about it. So Happy Star Wars Day to you, the merry members of P&B.

Anyway, a source of debate is over which Boba Fett voice is better. The original (Jeremy Bulloch) or the "remastered" (Temuera Morrison). Which do you prefer?

The Ross County manager has been nominated for PFA Scotland Manager of the Year alongside Neil Lennon and Stuart McCall.

A deserved nomination IMO. This clearly shows how highly he is rated among his fellow professionals.

Louis returns to our screens tonight with the first part of a two part documentary concerning Autism. I believe this is based around a school for autistic children in New Jersey (1 in 100 US children are diagnosed as being on the Autistic Spectrum) and their family life.

It's a subject area which interests me due to working with some children diagnosed with autism over several summer/October/Easter holidays in recent years and the Autism awareness training that went along with the job. I would like to think that I'm more knowledgeable on the issue than your average person but it's still something I'm always keen to find out more about. In a bizarre way, it's a fascinating subject.

I'm looking forward to this, and I expect another quality documentary from Theroux.
