  1. Just watched the highlights. At the free kick which led to Dundee's offside goal, Sima totally leaves Tiffoney to get the rebound. Shocking defending. And Tiffoney should have buried it
  2. The best-attended Scottish Cup tie also happens to hold the European record for a domestic crowd. 147,365 supporters watched Celtic versus Aberdeen on April 24 1937. Ah, the good old days. No, I don't remember it. 'Mon the Dons.
  3. Soz, back on topic. So, no more chants of 'if you hate xyz clap your hands' ? The H word is there in big bold shout and you would be encouraging others to join in your hatred. ETA OK, so football teams don't seem to count. What about the Glesga Polis? Of course some football fans might fall foul of the H word law.
  4. Actually I did when I first read about it in 2010/11. I couldn't really understand it and thought it was a con so didn't buy my 5 bitcoins. The price crashed later and I felt smug. $70,000 each now, I believe.
  5. This. Seems to favour the Zombies, don't know why they're so upset. Except for the travelling fans, of course. Shame. Happy Paddy's Day.
  6. This ship sailed years ago delparlane Somewhere Over the Waterspout Senior Member 5,550 25,787 posts Gender:Male Location:Massachusetts, USA Posted 1 hour ago Come ON ffs Rangers!!! Don’t embarrass yourselves at home.
  7. Have you been on the beevy, Pete? If that's an accepted rhyming slang, apologies, but I've never heard it before.
  8. I remember Bill McLaren the rugby commentator being unbiased in match commentary during Scotland games. It is possible and preferable. The BBC tries too hard to compete with the commercial broadcasters these days.
  9. The Hunts will soon be able to sell their shares more easily. British finance minister Jeremy Hunt is drawing up plans to allow UK private companies to offer shares on exchanges, the Financial Times reported on Saturday. The Private Intermittent Securities and Capital Exchange System (Pisces) would act as a crossover between public and private markets allowing for some liquidity in the shares of private companies without the regulatory burden of a public listing, the FT said.
  10. I used soccer deliberately. I was thinking outside the box. I'm now climbing back in.
  11. Football gained its popularity when most fans stood on the terracing, had a drink if they wanted, argued about one-off, irreversible decisions and lived off the memories of the goals and incidents that they alone witnessed. I accept we can't return to those days but I feel that "they'"are trying to strait-jacket all aspects of football to an anodyne, antiseptic formula, along with some very dubious (no, outright wrong) interpretations of the rules of soccer. See 'VAR' , handball and offside. My only suggestion is to leave UEFA and FIFA, and just do our own thing with our own rules. Any fans who miss 'big European games' can adopt Man City or Barcelona as their big team. A Scottish club or national team is never going to win one of their competitions in the future anyway. So there!
  12. The A9 doesn't need dualling, it needs to be put underground.
  13. Seems they aren't much interested in anything below the English Premier League, many scores haven't been updated, hours later. I blame the owners.
  14. When I look on Sky sports results, it's showing 0-0. Just me? (Hearts are drawing as well.)
  15. Or use extremely flimsy material that pulls away in the offenders hand. Or skin-tight.
  16. My 'big team' won by 14 goals and Griezmann didn't score. I hope Scotland avoids France until the final.
  17. At least I'll be dead and gone by the time Musk sends a Martian team to the World Cup....
  18. 1-1 imo. It's probably been asked (and answered) before but recent events caused me to wonder, by what stretch of the imagination is Israel in Europe? Is it because it's in Eurovision? Or could it be money? Ah! , there's my answer.
