1320Lichtie Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Brought forward their Christmas Eve game. Cheers! Is that because it was Elgin and the players would've got back late I take it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrooge1928 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Forgive my ignorance & apologies if has come up before but why does big Joe wear the number 21 shirt? All the shirts are in the same size so that anyone can wear any number. Joe's shoulders are so broad that we had to get an XL shirt for him, and number 21 makes it easy to identify when the kit is being laid out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday 22nd October. Good luck to the team! Edited October 21, 2016 by Mr Blobby Typo. Changed 'dept' with 'debt'.

I thought 'dept' didn't look right. Changed already with 'debt'. And you win our 'Spot the Balls Up' Competition. To collect your prize of a free Mr Blobby pin badge, just drop by to any Edinburgh City game at Meadowbank and either myself or the co-editor Jackie will be happy to oblige.

Sounds like Hunter's biography is one of the less entertaining works of fiction to be published in recent years, given that most of what he recalls is at best a twisted version of the truth and at worst only actually occured in his head. Also, he didn't only gain sympathy from the media "in the end". With a couple of minor exceptions, the media (mainly the Edinburgh Evening News) was completely supine from start to finish, resorting to printing Hunter's wild allegations whenever he felt the need to have a go at supporters in the press. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllyMonc Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Thought the second half today was the best we've played this season. Everyone was brave on the ball and on another day at least one of Beattie's efforts goes in. If we can repeat that on a regular basis we won't have to lose sleep at the thought of East Kilbride in the playoff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 (edited) Meanwhile back at Meadowbank, Frank Irons finds the Citizen article on Forfar's mascot 'Baxter the Bridie and the silly moo 'George the Belted Galloway' very fascinating indeed. More mooows on that to come, we are told. Hmm, Curiouser and Curiouser! (If City are looking for someone to be George the Belted Galloway, my wife and I are available on Saturdays as long as Mr Blobby can ride sidesaddle.)
