Karpaty Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 There must be a few terminally ill Celtic fans raging at the amount of publicity Jay Beattie gets. It's tragic and all and it was a nice touch by Samaras that day but things like giving him Goal of the Month? f**k sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland Capital Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 It's the minutes applauses while the game is in progress that drive me nuts. I remember once at an away game at Aberdeen, one started and I didn't join in. A woman turned round and said 'Applaud for some boy who died!'Later turned out he was still alive, wasn't an Aberdeen fan nor attended matches!

Lofarl Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 The sad/hilarious thing is there's a great chance President Trump will give a speech eulogising the queen which will end up turning into a speech about himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I never see the point of floral tributes at sites of road accidents- if I was deaded in a road accident I'd want a sign put up along the lines of "Drive carefully you cnuts- THAT MEANS YOU AUDI AND BMW DRIVERS" Whereas if I was deaded in some kind of freak bizarre incident I would expect and trust P&B contributors to royally rip the pish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernJambo Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 'Applaud for some boy who died!' This sums it up. Aye, a really touching sentiment..."some boy"...just a "look at me, look how respectful I am". And, why? We're all going to die, that fucker just got lucky and was able to check out early! (turns out 'some boy' wasn't even dead though, so applauding in anticipation of his death is quite harsh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I'd imagine the 700+ rooms at Buckingham Palace are pretty well heated.Unfortunately. Probably heated to an unhealthy level, like 27 degrees. Is Buck House not needing a refurb? Thought I saw a story mentioning that was happening soon. Probably still a bit drafty.

Scary Bear Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Just checked and it was March 2002 when the Queen Mother died. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/622457.stm 15 years already! time flies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throbber Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I can remember even before Diana died though any news report of the aftermath of any news report would have the camera zoom in on a bouquet of flowers at the scene with a card saying "why?" On it. You'd then hear the newsreader say in a sombre tone- "one tribute echoed the sentiments of so many in the community asking simply- WHY?" I agree with your observations on this subject but do you actually think Diana's death contributed towards attitudes that we see today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
