  1. Ah well, looks like I've missed out on a final ticket. I still am mystified who the 17,000 were that snapped up the tickets so quickly. Probably the first time back for many since we took 44,000 at Parkhead. It's no surprise though that the club has allowed this to happen. Unfortunately, we've got bunch of idiots at the tiller. They've allowed this to happen in order to prove a point to Sevco and the governing body and to hell with any of their regular attendees that weren't quick off the mark. Or maybe it was just me and my cohorts that missed out. C'est la vie as our French counterparts say...
  2. I remember supporters on here and elsewhere after 0-5 trouncing on the last day of last season, saying that it didn't matter. Whether it's the first, last or anywhere in-between and whether it's a dead rubber or for a European place, it matters. Celtic do not have a ounce of fear about us, we set up for 'damage limitation' and bend over for them, we write off the points and the fans have no expectations other than being well beaten. We embrace the mantra that "our season will not be defined by what we do against the 'Old Firm'. We've become a tinpot club over the last thirty years. If Cormack really wants to change that status quo then he needs to sack Robson, get in a manager of substance and experience that won't write off points against any team in our league. In the meantime, we'll travel down to the League Cup Final in December in the knowledge that our chances of victory are extremely slim.
  3. Just crossed the Greek border on a Flix bus from Sofia. The bus is probably 75% populated with Dandies and the Greeks made a longer check on UK passports. We were held at the border for nearly 1 hour and a half. We're now under police escort for the remaining 60 odd miles to Thessaloniki!!!
  4. I'll be there on Wednesday and certainly won't go to any square or shoved on a bus. They tried it in Rijeka and Dnipro and we just refused.
  5. Glasgow Rangers 1872-2012 Sevco 2012- That's not a joke, it's a fact. It amazes me how many fans from other clubs, including my own, persist with the myth that Glasgow Rangers didn't die in 2012 by calling the new entity, 'Rangers'.
  6. It's a bit confusing beacuse Panini have messed up the names on the stickers but here's a picture of Archie Gemmill... ....and here's one of Maurice Gibb... ...and, of course, you'll spot the error here, it is not Queen but the Bee Gees...
  7. Oh that's a positive that footage may exist but why would not make that available? My dream job would be to trawl through all that material and catalogue it...
  8. All this talk for TV footballing schedules in the past makes me reflect on the frustration of having practically no existing footage of Aberdeen playing at Pittodrie in the 1970s. Scotsport & Sportscene or similar named programmes must've been on every weekend in the 1970s? I know the master tapes might've been reused but surely some footage must exist somewhere. For instance, I've seen Joey Harper score against Juventus but that's only the goal. Where's the rest of it? In fact, I've only ever seen the Liverpool goal of the 1980 match at Pittodrie! I've never seen footage of the rest of the match and that had the English branch of the BBC present!!
  9. I did not know that Shengelia had died! Really it was all Hansen's making, he was lucky to get 20+ caps, absolutely rotten for Scotland.
  10. We're going through another bad spell and I find it hard to believe that a midweek in Lanarkshire will be the match that turns it around. Besides, I've got a feeling that we'll hit the nadir of the Robson reign on Saturday night. Either a horrible eye-gouging 1-1 or a narrow 1-0 win for the Steelmen.
  11. Robson needs chased out the door. The McKenzie one was right in front of me and it certainly didn't look like a penalty from my angle. The end of the day, fans looking for someone else to blame for the fact we shat it when we had the victory comfortably in our grasp. Robson decides to change the midfield all at once and before Miovski has a chance to reach the bench they're back in it and we wait for the inevitable to happen.
  12. These 'dumps' that people are mentioning have been left to rot by successive Tory governments as well as the pseudo-Tory government led by Tony Blair. Although, it doesn't help when the people that live in these places then go and vote for the f@ckers...
  13. A 37-38 year old Ian Archer during his glory years when he briefly presented Scotsport in 1981. He would pass away 21 years later of cancer. He always gave me the impression that he was having the delirium tremens every Sunday although I only remember him when he had been shuffled to the side in favour of the returning Arthur Montford.
  14. With Glasgow's favourite son Mo Johnston in the team, Partick Thistle took drastic kit measures to ensure young Mo remembered which Glasgow team he was currently playing for.
  15. The Mighty Lemon Drops 'Like an Angel'
  16. If the rain continues then hopefully the game will be called off because we don't want the conditions impacting the outcome (and I can't be arsed getting soaked in Section Y). Whenever it's played, this must be three points whether it's a one goal margin or more...
