    Any Links?

    You needed a different tin for that question.
  2. "The Falkirk" - for people who think they will be sitting at the top table, but are denied by a last minute vote of the other top table guests.
  3. The imagination shown by Aberdeen's extensive scouting network continues to impress.
  4. Sorry mate. I thought the vote was a intended to be a serious discussion that reflected our opinion on the actual options available to the club. I don't believe I handed out any insults, questioned anyone's intelligence or indicated anyone was a pleb, but feel free to point out where I did and I'll happily apologize.
  5. Introducing the realities of our financial situation is hardly being pedantic. We'd all love to be playing in a shiny new, multi-purpose, 100 million pound stadium. The reality is that we're much more likely to end up with a flat-pack St. Mirren type effort. That's why I voted to stay at Fir Park. If someone can show me a nice new stadium that's within our budget I'm more than happy to reconsider.
  6. There is if it makes some fans think that moving to Ravenscraig (or wherever) would mean moving into a shiny new stadium like that. When, in reality, we'd be looking at the Skoda end of the market.
  7. That stadium cost 105 million to build. We'd be struggling to afford one tenth of that.
  8. It's no' very anti-establishment advertising it on Facebook.
  9. I agree he's a wally, but I don't think he dislikes Motherwell.
  10. I'm just wondering if the players have been paid yet.
  11. Admit it. You lifted that quote from Craig Thomson's Facebook page.
  12. And if Bolton (or any other EPL club) is relegated they are guaranteed 48 million in parachute payments over the subsequent 4 years. That's right. 48 million for being crap. If we had that level of guaranteed income we could be giving away season tickets.
  13. I could be wrong, but I think the poster you are quoting was being ironic.
  14. They have over 40,000 people on their season ticket waiting list, so I doubt they care.
  15. Chicago? Nah - he's still a free agent.
  16. Sounds like it's the Nick Berries to me. Can't see how it would get on the Simon Wicks of any fans.
  17. Most teams have trouble when they go the dogs. Clyde hit problems when they left the dogs.
  18. You're right - we don't need safe standing. All we need is some proper terracing for a few thousand fans. If we can't use it during the odd UEFA sanctioned game, then fair enough. We'll just need to use the remainder of the ground for that. I'm sure we can squeeze the regular 4-5000 in.
  19. No, you just said that "anyone who wasn't willing to stand should have been in the family section". So you graciously would permit people to sit down in the sections you designate otherwise they would have to be willing to stand.
  20. Grand idea. Let's give the stewards cattle prods and if any paying customer is selfish enough to sit on the seat for which they purchased a ticket, then 20,000 volts will set them straight.
  21. What he needs to do is be a wee bit more consistent and, in games like the Killie game, be the man that takes the game by the scruff of the neck and makes things happen.
  22. I wouldn't mind seeing Jeffers back. Like you say, his off-the-ball movement was excellent and opened up the play for Murph and Sutton. No doubt, he is weighing up his options elsewhere (that can almost certainly pay more than we can offer).
  23. If I was a betting man, I'd be betting that McCall brings a striker in on loan from the lower English leagues.
  24. I know what you mean (and agree with most of it), but having watched the highlights a few times I still think Randolph had Foran's post strike covered. I do think we have the right balance of grit and finesse to come back from a deficit, but hopefully we won't be tested like that too often.
  25. Us and every other middling SPL team. Except, of course, when struggling teams come to Fir Park and we beat them. Those days are immediately erased from memory to keep the myth alive.
