The Hot Space album certainly was.

Yeah, know this roundabout well. Was there last week, approached as you say, in the right lane to go all the way round into the shops. No issues on the roundabout. Parked up, nipped into the McDonalds there and while sitting with a cheeseburger, staring blankly into the middle distance, I suddenly noticed two guys running towards the McDonalds across the big car park, both carrying shopping baskets overflowing with stuff. Behind them, they were being chased by six Home Bargains staff shouting the odds. The two guys were running in what can only be described as the campest style ever seen in Robroyston. They were holding the wire shopping baskets in two hands in front of them, trying not to spill any of the stuff they had obviously just stolen from Home Bargains. Fcuk knows what was in their baskets. Two hundred bargain air fresheners? Boxes of powder to clean the inside of your microwave oven? Anyway, they danced off out of my view now, closely followed by the six Home Bargains chasing pack. Was one of my more interesting trips to Robroyston Retail Park.

Roundabouts, again. Cumbernauld, again. The roundabout at Tesco Craigmarloch, again. Just about every day, I’m the ‘blue car’ in this image, coming up to the roundabout, to go straight through following the ‘blue car’ line. If I don’t go straight through, I’ll be turning left into the Tesco. The ‘red car’ image here, is the ‘kunt’ image, because this is where the kunts who cannot be arsed waiting behind a couple of ‘blue cars’ try to bomb past and cut across to go straight through the roundabout. The ‘straight through’ at this roundabout is single lane. Every, fcuking, day. Kuntos.

I’ll be recording it to whizz through tomorrow to watch the picks, and ignore the bollocks in-between the picks themselves. Funnily enough, I am not feeling too ethusiastic about the draft. More than that, really couldn’t give two flying fcuks. We’ll be getting scudded by Reid, Mahomes, Kelce & Swift anyway. We should just let Lewis Hamilton conduct the draft and he’d probably do as good a job as the Paton & Peyton clownshoes duo.

Sorry, but I am once again struggling to understand why any Dundee fan would want St Mirren to win any further games this season, and same for us with Dundee. If St Mirren’s opponent is Celtic, The Allstar 2012 Franchise, Hearts, or Killie - it shouldn’t matter a fcuk. Dark blues fans should want to see us pumped. I don’t get it, I can’t get it. Our primary concerns should be what is best for St Mirren and Dundee. If what’s best for St Mirren is for Dundee to get skelped by an Old Firm side, then for that game only, I want the Old Firm side to win. I’m not cheering FOR an arse cheek, I’m simply wanting the best result, the best outcome for my team. I make zero apology for that.

The bit in bold italics is the job of the West Bank and Gentleman’s Pavilion, certainly not the St Mirren management.

Rand*m G*y incoming…

In the world of Cumbernauld for one.

In 2nd gear.

I’ve got the ‘40 Licks’ best of double CD, like a fair bit of it, especially Under Cover of the Night, Brown Sugar, Satisfaction, Jumping Jack Flash - but that’s the only Stones CD I’ll ever need. It’s not that I hate them, far from it, but I simply think they are vastly over-rated, hence me stating it’s only my opinion. Opinions seem to be garnering red dots though. Fairy nuff’.

Yup, four of the driving things that grind my gears (that aren’t out-and-out downright dangerous kuntery type things)… 1. Drivers who seemingly have no indicators on their cars. 2. Drivers who don’t know how to take roundabouts, what lane to be in approaching roundabouts, what lane to be in on roundabouts, with Westfield Road in Cumbernauld being prime time roundabout arsewipe kunt area a particular annoyance to me personally. Roundabouts with a two-lane approach, but three one-way exits? Lost count the amount of times a kunt has nearly hit me on the one at Craigmarloch Tesco. 3. Motorway middle lane hoggers. 4. Fog light on for absolutely no fcuking reason arseholes. I’m not perfect, but I do not fit into these four categories.

Agree, but as long as we hang onto 5th, it really doesn’t matter that there’s three qualifiers to get to the group stage, the facts are we’d see the UEFA flag flying in the corner of the ground, and the match programme would be a genuine European game collectors item. Even if it is against some Welsh or far flung mob, the matchday announcement would be ‘Welcome to the SMiSA Stadium for this UEFA Conference League qualifier against FC Kazakdiddy’… That’s good enough for me. Hope we don’t fcuk this chance up.

The Rolling Stones. In my opinion, without doubt, the most over-rated band of all time. IMHO, he added, for belt & braces security purposes.

Personal taste obviously, but for me, in no particular order, The Beatles, R.E.M., Bruce Springsteen, Rush, Led Zeppelin, and Elvis Costello. I’ll stick to those six based on one particular criteria - right to the end, or still to this day, they were/are still relevant in regard to being a recording and/or touring band. Never stopped writing and recording new material, or go out on the road as some ‘greatest hits’ act where the last decent album of new material they did was over twenty to thirty years ago. I was considering adding U2 (love them or loathe them) to that list, but they’ve veered off into residency in Las Vegas territory, and although they hit huge individual peaks with The Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby albums, their recent stuff has been, well, pretty much shite. Any sane individual compiling a double CD ‘best of U2’ would surely only find one, or at most two, songs worthy of inclusion from their last two or three albums. Opinions, opinions, they’re like ars…..

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c8vz13e48mjo Come on Saints (and whoever is playing Dundee).

Young Carlos Tevez and his dad at a family wedding IMHO.

I think it’s definitely a different dynamic between Scotland and England in this regard. This is only my view, but up here, a genuinely wee club who makes it to a round where the big teams come in, actively prays for the uglies away - if they’re thinking nothing more than money and an inevitable scudding. I don’t think their mindset is, if they drew an ugly at home, ‘get a draw here for a money spinning replay’. Maybe a wee club up here, if they can’t get an ugly away, would take Hearts or Hibs, maybe Aberdeen, as the ‘next best thing’. Down there, no need to list the clubs who, if a genuinely wee club got them away, would be great from a money aspect - never mind your ‘Big 6’, throw in your Newcastle Utds, West Hams, and so on. Christ, drawing Leeds United or Leicester away would be great for a wee diddy down there. If they got a Leeds, Leicester, or Everton say at home, a smaller club there would likely fancy their chances too, as the big clubs down there seem to rest a lot of first team players. They can sniff taking a big club back to a big Championship or Premier League stadium. Just my opinion.

Just shows you, two cheeks of the same arse right enough.

Well, what you came up with was more than decent.

No-one says the Popular People’s Front of Ulster until I say ‘Jehova’.

Oldest piece of clothing I actually still wear is a ‘Brady 12’ New England Patriots T Shirt bought in a Las Vegas sports shop in 2009, and it’s still going strong. Indestructable. Only wear it lying around the house these days, the print on the front and back is well cracked, faded, and not suitable for public wear, but the damn thing just won’t chuck it… a bit like Brady himself, after winning the Super Bowl with Tampa Bay. Oldest non-wearing items are a 1979 genuine team-worn St Mirren Umbro shirt, the Led Zeppelin T Shirt I bought at Knebworth in 1979, and a 1983 Manly Sea Eagles rugby league jersey. Have also still got my 1970s denim jacket adorned with sewn-on heavy rock band patches in a bag in the loft.

Oh fcuk. Another Wilson. Signature text change incoming…

New Broncos uniforms revealed today, and I actually really like them, especially this dark blue one.

Yet, there’s some (on this forum too) that tell us VAR isn’t the problem, it’s the humans operating it. VAR is great, it’s here to stay they say… well, I’m not one of them. The sooner that shite is fired into the sun, the better. …and, when VAR is fired into the sun, can Manchester United please be onboard the rocket with VAR. A shower of jammy shite, so jammy, that I actively want an Abu Dhabi-funded megaclub to hammer the kunts by 7-0. Preferably including a hat-trick by that kunt Grealish too. Seriously, that fcuking rabble are only out-jammy b*****ded by a certain two clubs who play in big Glasgow stadiums. It’s not Man Utd’s fault that despite Casemiro being a fanny, Coventry contrived to out-fanny Casemiro, but for fcuk sake… jammy, jammy kunts. Rant over, time fur’ a beer.
