Cold Feet Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 9 hours ago, Granny Danger said: From Wiki: Brechin Cathedral dates from the 13th century. As a congregation of the Church of Scotland, which is Presbyterian, the church is not technically a cathedral, in spite of its name. It's a wee bit like DFC is not really a football club. Who decides when a cathedral is not cathedral or is in fact a cathedral? A theological debate might now be interesting, could be a hard ask as most here have no idea about fitba.

hedgeinthesouth Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 After Tuesday's result hopefully most of the players got a massive kick in the arse and hopefully will come away with a battling performance today. If we're gonna stay 5 at the back for this game id like to see us start with Smith O Neil-thought he was our best player on Tuesday night Dyer Fusco McLean CrightonDale Sinclair WattOrsiJackson Cmon City !

I'd agree with that team you've put there but no doubt Dodds will keep 5 at the back putting spark in for fusco/mcGeever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who decides when a cathedral is not cathedral or is in fact a cathedral? They could turn it into a Wetherspoons and it would still be a cathedral imo. Half of that chain are described as being 'inside churches/banks' despite not serving those purposes anymore. The DA is just jealous that Dunfermline only has an Abbey (and was never capital of Scotland as it never existed back then*, just Alba north of the Forth... minus the islands). That said, this forever makes the Pars our eternal ancient overlords. Damn. *Good thread to choose as Granny Danger can answer any questions with his first-hand knowledge of the time.

gm_1982 Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 No Fusco or McGeaver. So; Smith O'Neil, McLean Crighton Dyer Watt Dale Sinclair Graham Jackson Orsi I'd go with that also although I'd have Lynas at right back every day of the week. I fear Dods will stick to 5 at the back and put Spark in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 More cathedral chat please. I was down in Norwich a couple of weeks ago, trying to kill 10hrs on a Sunday. The castle only opened at 2pm which I found really annoying for a peak season weekend, but the free access to the grounds gave an excellent view over to both Carrow Road and the cathedral. It's no wonder that Norwich Union / Aviva use it's very distinctive spire on their logo as it truly is a piece of (Norman?) architectural beauty, well worth celebrating. Elgin on the other hand, where I was just last week, has let it's cathedral down somewhat. No spire, windows or even roof, yet Historic Scotland want to charge you to visit, with absolutely no intention on restoring it to it's (what must have been) former beauty. It still looks nice though, but largely because of the yellow sandstone it's been built with. Have any P&Bers maintained, renovated or let a cathedral fail into disrepair lately?

Zetterlund Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 The popular doom metal band Cathedral formed from members of Napalm Death and Carcass. I've never herd their music but it sounds like it'd be pretty uplifting stuff. Maybe they'll play some at half time in honour of our guests. I predict an uninspiring 2-0 home win, with the starting lineup possibly the most interesting thing about the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Officially the head of the diocese of Brechin is St Paul's cathedral in Dundee which must be a bitter blow to today's guests. With Brechin likely to be on the back foot with this news I would like us to go balls oot 3 up top today and try and give NKoyi a chance to kick on from the other night.

Hedgecutter Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 FWIW, Cathedral City is my supermarket special offer cheese of choice. They should get it in case I want a cheeseburger at the game. A whole 2hrs 45 mins to go until HT, no excuses. Either mature or extra mature btw. Should go without saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you accept that historically Dundee was in Angus it would surely be: United, Forfar, Arbroath, Montrose, Brechin, Dundee - so fifth not fourth.
