  1. Unfortunately Tolkein didn't set everything in stone apart from LOTR and The Hobbit. This gives Amazon some leeway...
  2. Although Stewart wanted to develop an app that was also Apple-friendly, they were wanting a monthly developer subscription. As he wants to keep the app ad-free this was a no-goer.
  3. Stewart Mathers has developed a FREE app, NO ads, that lists every Scottish League date and result. League tables can also be generated to reflect the standings on specific dates. Also included are club records including maps showing past and present ground locations, this is made possible by the ingenious use of modern and historical maps. Stewart had asked me to be one of the testers during the development stages. The app can be downloaded from the Google store via this link from Stewart's Scottish Cup archive website... https://thebeautifuldribblinggame.com/league/
  4. Does anyone know when they were founded. I've come across references to them being originally called Kilwinning Rangers AFC...

    When they all turned up home in a taxi after you know what I was was thinking "is this a Bobby Ewing moment?" In the end I think Marty was taking control...

    I'd previously watched the first three series but I've not watched any of the final series yet as I'm on a binge re-watch. By f**k, it is good.
  7. A very good post... but Penicuik have never played in the Scottish league...
  8. I've not really read any of the above comments as I intend on binging through the first half of the series. BCS must surely be in the best top 10 all time ssries.
  9. After having a look at Star Wars the above is a brilliant review.
  10. We've been lettered that as the three candidates in our ward are standing unopposed there will be no ballot, polling places will be closed and no postal ballots sent out. Surely the electorate still have the right to register disapproval of the candidates via spoiled ballot papers?
  11. A record of the competition is available HERE... http://sfha.org.uk/highlandleaguecup.htm This will of course be amended as and when missing results come in. James Meadows sent me a spreadsheet of all Fraserburgh's matches so I'll be working through that over the next day or so.
  12. I had a quick response from Chris Gavin at AFC Heritage Trust to my query about the original trophy. Apparently it was awarded at the clubs sports days for many years but its location is now a mystery. Chris also mentioned that Aberdeen were awarded to trophy outright after their SECOND win in 1889. Unusual but maybe the ADFA were not happy with it and decided to pay for a grander trophy which gives the impresion the first cup was probably a modest affair.
  13. The trophy is magnificent. It actually replaced the original in 1890 1889, which was awarded to the original Aberdeen FC after their third second triumph, but I don't know if the current club still has it.
  14. I've compiled a near complete record of the competition from 1887 to 2000 and 2016 to date, although the 1950s and early 1960s still need some work. I have the results of the 2000-2016 period to hand and intend to add these over the next few weeks. http://sfha.org.uk/aberdeenshirecup.htm
  15. Went back to work on Thursday to be greeted by a wave of polling cards. Another banana republic tide of election material...
  16. I watched the first episode of the first series but got sidetracked and never got to see the rest. Is it worthwhile?
  17. I take it you've not seen the episode where Kramer actually runs amok in Jerry's flat?
  18. To be honest I dont even have a pin lock to start with!
  19. I'm not belittling this, the 17thC witchcraft trials WERE horrific but a 20th C politician using it to win political points...
  20. A pretty tenuous argument don't you think?
