'WellDel

How, in the name of fcuk, do young guys look up to that absolute weapon? I get these daft staged vids are purely to bait and rile, but how did his shtick ever get traction and gain him such a huge following of wee VL's in the first place? I know he did a bit of kickboxing or MMA, but there's not one likeable trait about him, just an utter, utter p***k. One, weird, creepy, and (allegedly) scummy human being. He also says gay a lot. I think he might be trying too hard with the macho act and he is, infact, gay. He will hopefully at least get plenty chances to try it out in the old gaol.

If we'd had him today, we'd have had 3pts imo. We had 3 or 4 really good openings and he'd have taken advantage of at least a couple of them. Not just KVV for Motherwell though. If it had been Aberdeen or Hearts today, for example, with a confident Duk or Shankland up front there would have been goals. As long as Beale is in charge and playing that sort of football, there's goals to be had against them.

Absolutely nothing to fear mate, if we had someone even semi competent up front we would have left there with at least a point today. They are fragile at the back and, for the money spent, their forwards look comically bad. They'll drop a fair few points this season, that's for sure.

Some really decent passages of play from us and that was a real boot in the baws. Think Kelly would have had it covered and Dessers knew nothing about it.

Aye, as they proved again against Livi today, their midfield pick up a lot of the slack where their defence is found wanting, and they can be quick and deadly on the counter. Like you, I have a wee feeling that we can nick something this week or next but think that, although it's away from home, tomorrow is actually our better chance. Refrain from conceding early and get their fans tetchy and you just never know.

Would be nice if we could have a forward with an actual goal threat available to test them.

Maybe someone on Hail Hail will be looking for swapsies.

They certainly are to a fish.

A tight affair with a nervy home crowd, then Dan Casey to maraud forward for a late winner to finally sword these cnuts. Casey last scorer and Motherwell to win. Double pays 210/1 with Ladbrokes. Fiver on that = Easiest grand you'll ever make. Maybe.

Was the spelling on the street sign not a giveaway every time you passed it?

There are so many places like this the length and breadth of the country. Small villages and towns that expand massively, yet the transport and public infrastructure does not grow with it. I live in a village which has probably increased four fold in the last 20 odd years. It's a very good commuter location, but though I'm fortunate enough to be a 5 min walk to the shops if I need any essentials, the folks on the extremities, where there is not a single bus stop, would probably be a 40 min return walk just to go for a loaf. Not too far away the great new hope of regeneration that is the Ravenscraig redevelopment has seen thousands of new houses built over a vast area of land in the same time period, yet other than a Marston's pub in the middle of it, there is not a single shop, chemist, doctors surgery, or anything to serve the many thousand of residents and, as far as I know, no real public transport link into town. Folks who stay bang in the middle of it have a couple of miles round trip just to get some shopping or collect a prescription, not to mention the pressures put on the existing doctors, schools etc to accomodate all the extra people. Car use will never decrease in these areas until councils insist that the necessary transport and social infrastructure are included in the granting of planning permission. The very folk who want to penalise car users are the ones responsible for them having to do so.

The exquisite scent of the scoot of Lynx Africa you put on to make a good first impression on your good lady must have been enough to mask your Hamilton Musk.

You must have been in awe. The step up in class when you cross to the right side of the Clyde is quite something.

Dunno about that. I was, fairly recently, offered a couple of yankee candles for a fiver each by a junkie at the wonderfully piss scented stairs of the carpark on Flowerhill St.

If you get caught, just play the auld and doddery/forgetful card. You pass for that at anything over 35 in Airdrie.

Wid... not share a room with that cat.

And finally... Durie's is ousted. Hurrah.

How the tables have turned. Normally in the Co-Op it's the customers that are getting fucking robbed.

Durie's is outed, you mean?

Surely a simple check, and yay or nay from one of our esteemed mod's can quickly confirm the poster's status as shiny new, or risen again multi-banned banger. We can then have a whole hearted apology from the appropriate side and save another 10 pages of denial/accusation. (We all know it's a multi-banned banger, ffs).

Garrowhill Thistle's YT on an adrenaline rush and getting nawty after thrashing Tarbert 7-0 in the Scottish that day? (Only joking obvs, but sometimes its just a local bevvied up young team on the radge, not entirely uncommon. Although I've no reason not to take the word of other posters with the info above.)

Investing is something I'd never looked at in earlier life, basically due to having no real spare funds to do so. However, now at age 50, I am in a better paying job and have been overpaying my mortgage for a few years, and should be mortgage free in approximately 2 years. As well as this I've been paying £100pm, to get me started, in AVC's via the industry scheme (railway BRASS), which only costs me £60 or so off my net wage as its obviously deducted before tax. My idea, on completion of my mortgage was to just lump an extra few hundred per month into the scheme as it is all taken pre tax (as a great many of longer serving colleagues do), and trust that it would work best for me and help me in possibly knocking a couple of years off my retirement age. I'm thinking now that this may be an over simplistic approach. I've only read the last few pages of this thread while waiting for airport transfer and a lot of it is like a foreign language to me, but it's clear I have some reading up to do, and knowledge to gain in the next wee while about what my best options actually are. Apologies in advance if I appear in here in the near future with what some (most) of you will find 'idiots guide' type questions!!

Don't know if you are part of the criminal underworld and would have such a thing, but I'm in Turkey just now and an, ehm, guy I spoke to, said he'd brought his firestick with IPTV on it with him, hooked it up to the telly in his room via the hotel's wifi and watched a faultless stream. Not that I'd condone such behaviour, just passing on a story as told during a completely true encounter incase you had such shady resources available to you.

Absolutely. Boot in the pie is a completely non-sexual, jocular response to a situation where, if it were a male you'd say they were due a boot in the baws. A chiding or reminder that they are in danger of crossing the line between acceptable and unacceptable when having a joke, or an idle threat to stop a situation escalating. I very much doubt such a boot has ever been administered in these types of exchanges, nor any great offence on either side. The sexual, racist, homophobic, misogynistic etc stuff rightly needs called out and binned, but you'd be in danger of over sanitising and making the world a very boring place if that sort of stuff between like minded folk, tired as it may be, was considered dangerous or overly derogatory.
