I'm not a religious man, but I'm saying my prayers. I've said all along that I want us out of this sh*tty league. If we do: no half measures! We need to gear up to compete if we do.

Wee touch of pepper might have done the trick? My friends had pies before game but didn't give a review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redandwhitearmy78 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 My bovril was hot, but tasted pretty rancid. Pie was OK, though. Thought my pie was cracking,Wee bit of spice to it but the bovril needed so much pepper to make it have a taste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond Oracle Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I think we should concentrate less on the football and more on the match day catering going forward.We all seem to get along that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlukediamond Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 After yesterday's win, does any of the credit for the win go to Wilson or is it all down to the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
++Ammo - Airdrie++ Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Wilson gets as much credit for the pies as he does the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartcraig Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Maybe "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" would be an apt replacement for "I Can't Help Falling in Love with You". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishful thinking or doomsday? Who would buy them? Wullie McKay? Alan Love? The Bentleys? Who'd want 50% of Airdrie and presumably a payroll that outweighs income? Personally I'd pray it was the stadium company so that ground and club are almost "United". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first thought though was the stadium company, but that's just wishful thinking on my part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waysider Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I really hope he hasn't sold out. Seems to me it would be the end of the Club. However, with the uncertainty about which league we'll be in next season it seems a strange time to sell. If he was going to do it, I would have thought that he, and any mug buying his shares, would have waited until after next week. Also I think he will wait to see if anyone buys Ryan before selling.

Cooper81 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Waysider how would it be the end of the club ? One scenario it's the stadium owners, building bigger links within community and not paying for the rent of stadium on march days. I believe TW will sell the club he's hardly been attending matches. AMB it would appear has been running the club. My ideal scenario would be the stadium owners join the board and AMB remains involved with club. Has TW really been that great for Airdrie ?

Maybe I didn't mean that literally. However, it seems that T W put money into the club. If he sells, who else is going to put money in? The Ballantynes decided a while ago not to subsidise the club and that we had to survive on gate income less rent money. In my view if TW disappears we will be back to the bad old days. Full time football has not been a great success but a large part of that was TW making bad decisions as to who would run the playing side. If TW stays and gets his decisions better that would be better than reverting to operating with no money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooper81 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 If the shares are sold it depends on who the new owner is, for all we know the new owner may have more to offer and likewise may not but i wouldn't jump to conclusions that TW stepping down is necessary a bad thing as it depends on what the new owner can offer to take Airdrie forward.

We could compete in the championship, just a shame that key decisions have been made poorly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airdrie76 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 If he does decide to leave I worry what's next. We're lumbered with players on full time contracts for another year at least. And gates that won't cover them Who'd want to buy is a very good question - although no one saw TW as a potential buyer last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
