If you wanted to obtain a piece of paper to allow you carry out predatory behaviour then you'd just join the Met Police.

Tuesday dawns bright and breezy, 10/10 would play again.

Tues 10/10, despite the U.S. question not being actually correct…

Super sexy TEN for Tuesday including the almost unknown sensation of being fairly confident with a poetry question.

Much as this is an open attack on devolution and the Scottish parliament, the more important thing today is that its yet another open attack on transgender people by the UK government. Sad, but completely unsurprising, to see the denial of rights to a marginalised group being enthusiastically cheered on by the usual suspects. The vast majority who will post on here in the coming days about how this is an 'echo chamber' and 'you won't convince people by calling them bigots' aren't in the least bit interested in being convinced or having their views challenged. They won't be able to tell you what the GRA involves. They won't be able to tell you what the current process for legally changing your gender involves. They won't be able to tell you anything about what transitioning or being transgender involves in general. This is a 'debate' being waged on fear and prejudice. It has absolutely nothing to do with what is best for transgender people, transgender children, people who are trying to figure their gender out. It has everything to do with needing a boogeyman to point at and with the British people being all to happy to go along with hating people because they don't understand them.

10 for Tuesday with a decent guess on the states

Juice 10 for Tuesday

Loving all the "need to have an open debate", "give people a chance to share their views" takes, almost exclusively from people who either can't or won't actually explain what their problem with the legislation is in the first place. A bill that took over 5 years from first being introduced to parliament to being passed, with two separate public consultations, both of which received more positive responses than negative. A bill which was a manifesto commitment for 129 of the 129 MSPs elected in the 2016 Parliament and 98 of the 129 MSPs elected in 2021. How many opportunities to talk about it are needed? How many times do the blatant lies being told about it need to be debunked?

I think the Board need to bow to the inevitable and let The Thread® manage the club directly.

Dear The Courier, Please stop printing this sh*t. We want nothing to do with them and don’t want to hear them throwing their toys out the pram anymore. Yours Sincerely All Raith Rovers fans

10 for me, got a bit lucky with the geography mind you. Only OFTW calls that dish by that name in the question by the way.

Gilmour isn't going to shag you, mate

Dundee - Shit manager →Long term contracts and bags of cash. Good manager →No.

Er...I think you're missing the word "not" somewhere, Joe.

Love this!

A bill backed by a majority of elected representatives from SNP, Labour, Greens, Lib Dem is blocked by a right wing Westminster government that we didn't vote for (nor have we voted for many decades). If ever there was evidence of the Democratic deficit we face then this is it. f**k the lot of them, a needless intervention to score points with bigots and nutters. The fucking state of the UK. Get it all to f**k.

Never. In. Doubt. That's the lad through to the regional's in Elgin next month.

I think as a society we need to protect women from predatory males and people operating under false pretences to target vulnerable women. But enough about 1320 Lichtie

Come back to us when you are playing at your own "stadium". Thank you.

Neither of those are affected by the Reform Bill in any way.

Straight swap for Michael McArdle who is leaving to join the SFA. Worth remembering that the only reason we have an academy in the first place and a dedicated training centre at Ralston is because the Gilmour board invested £1m into it when they brokered the deal to sell Love Street and move to Greenhill Road. I get that some folk don’t like Stewart and they feel we have moved on, which is absolutely fine, but the constant sniping and bitching about him is really poor given all the things that board did to save and rebuild the club. IMHO.

Manager binned days before the season starts, release replica of our last relegation kit, club legend appointed as rookie manager, last home win was 5 months ago, hugely popular CEO resigns mid-season, another director resigns….

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/64306847 On the BBC website today. One of my favourite days ever at Brockville!! Hope you all enjoy - it certainly brought back some amazing memories for me not to mention a few goosebumps.

It’s tough to admit when you’ve got it wrong. McGinty arrived with a bad reputation with Morton fans and a so-so reputation with Partick fans. Many Ayr fans pre-judged the situation and assumed he would be awful, particularly given his signing was too closely connected to Hopkin, an appointment that was unpopular from the get go. There was a period last season where we seemed to be scapegoating McGinty for every goal we conceded which was always unfair. Even if it wasn’t, the player has clearly responded to Lee Bullen and has barely put a foot wrong since last January. He also seems to have emerged as a popular club captain as well. I think the time has come for the guy to be given some credit. Personally I see no reason why a fit Musonda would necessarily displace McGinty at the moment. But on the worst analysis, he has emerged as a solid back up option at centre half. But in the end, I think there are a few fans who have nailed their colours so firmly to the mast that they aren’t able to recognise that with the right manager and coaching staff, McGinty has proven that he is an entirely decent championship standard defender.

Watching a non-tech savvy twisted firefarter of a colleague lose their sh*t over a flipped upside-down computer screen, having left it unlocked and unattended.

I've sold monorails to Brockway, Ogdenville, and North Haverbrook, and by gum, it put them on the map!

21-22, Championship ONLY… …with Spencer 9-3-7, without Spencer 3-7-7… Call it 47% vs 18% or 1.76 pts/game bs 0.94 pts/game…if you like percentage not loses, it’s 63% vs 59%, showing the difference Spencer makes in close matches. I can’t be arsed to figure out the non-League totals, or the standard deviation on this, cause that is a significant difference, no matter how you slice it.

The worst type, for me. There will be people going who simply need football for their mental health etc., i know old folk who only ever leave their house for it. Some will want to keep a record of not missing games, while some just wont be able to stay away. No issue with those people and dont think they should be hounded or ridiculed IMO. The ones who are simply going so they can boast about it and speak down to those who arent, however, feel like fair game as theyre completely missing the point. The majority, so far, will make sure the club know theyve made a mistake.

Proof, if proof be need be, that some of our fans are completely insane.

I feel ashamed that I didn't like Stephen Robinson when he first came in.

Is there any opportunity in the high street for a Slabberdashery to boost footfall?

9/10 for Tuesday. Think it's worth a

Yeah and I can understand that feeling that we've moved on, and we absolutely have moved on. The Gilmour board did more than a pretty good job IMO, they performed miracles for the majority of their time in control of the club, but yes of course they made mistakes along the way and they made more than a few in the latter couple of years of their time in the boardroom. The board was tired in the end and it was definitely time for change when they went. Nobody that I can see is suggesting a return for Stewart to the boardroom of the football club. It does stick in the throat a wee bit to see his name being pilloried all over the place online though when actually a lot of the good things we now enjoy as St.Mirren fans, like the academy and the modern stadium, is because of decisions him and his board made at the time. Fan Ownership itself was only possible because of them and Gordon Scott, the shares could easily have been sold to any one of a number of interested buyers over the years they were available. As usual there's a perfectly fine middle ground to be had. You can respect what Stewart did whilst also accepting this is a new era. He's not involved in the running of the club and nor will he be so I don't know why his name keeps getting dragged through the mud.

Yes, this is exactly the game you think it is, in full:

Frankly, the decision today and the manufactured bile towards the legislation will look horrific when looked back on in years to come. I know which side of history I'd rather be comfortable explaining my position to my children and their children on in years to come. Is the legislation perfect? No, Does it do all that it needs to do? No, Does it impact any more than a vanishingly small number of people? No. It will have as much impact on 99.99% of us as to whether half a dozen folk in Selkirk have a chippy or Chineese tonight. The argument that it will allow some sexual preditor to obtain a piece of paper that allows them to wear womens clothes and assault someone in toilets is laughable. If you are that way inclined, you'd do it anyway. Conversely, Does it help prevent harm to people who the legislation helps? Damn right. To politicise this is both a slap in the face to those it is there to help and also for women's rights. What happens now if the Scottish Parliament brings in further legislation to support women's rights that is in contrast to Westminster?

It is a naked attack on devolution. I say this as someone who has no particular skin in the issue of the GRR, other than wanting trans people to ahve better lives than they do at present. Anyone lining up behind the Tories or the chillingly inhuman Alister Jack, the minister for the eighteenth century, needs to have a word with themselves.

Waiting on someone posting 300 voice notes on the banter page.

Can’t agree with my fellow dons fans. 3 trophies and extended periods of top flight football in 25 years is excellent for a club like hearts. No league titles and two trophies in 28 years is laughable for a club like Aberdeen. We just need to take our medicine here.

Wins 10-6 in the championship tie breaker with the luckiest of net cords Well deserved win, tremendous performance.

Love the interview with Bert at the end. The word legend is overused but he is a bone fide legend and quite the gentleman.

Glorious

Let’s take your ridiculous premise to be true, if someone has an illness and the cure to all the further health problems is to let them be happy, then why the f**k would you oppose this, or even care? On todays news overall, I have a tendency to almost shrug and mutter fucking torries when they behave at their worst, we have become used to it but this has really got under my skin. It’s a terrible move for them politically and yet they have actively harmed people just because they can, how much of a scumbag do you need to be to do that?

Hopefully they made sure it was ok with SG 1st though.

There are too many Glasgow teams these days. Please eliminate three.

I'm glad we open the stand for away fans, no matter how few. They're paying customers too and it's disgraceful the way teams like Morten and Celtic treat fans like shite and stick them in the corners or behind pillars. I'm never going back to Celtic Park and I'll only go to Morten if it's good weather and the WDE is open. Treat other supporters the way we want to be treated ourselves, not descend to the level of others.
