I totally agree with you Wellgirl. I just didn't have the opportunity to write it!!! There's three sides to every story, and at the moment, opinions are being based on only one side.

Its like bringing up kids...sometimes, (only sometimes ) you have to stop posturing and yelling at them to get things done.

I work in a team, and tend to understand why things have to be done a certain way, for the benefit of the department and the service delivery and so on. There are team members who do their own thing, despite being asked to work in a specific way, with the result that mugs like me have to do THEIR job too(on occasions). Our Chief can be a pain sometimes, but she gets paid to do her job, which involves making sure we do ours. No matter how many times folks are reminded to certain things within a time scale, no matter how many times we're reminded to work towards targets, no matter how many times we are encouraged to work within an acceptable clinical style, there are staff who interpret instruction differently(basically they won't do as their asked). I imagine Jim Gannon may have similar issues at present. He knows what is successful, (he has a track record...no??). You can take horses to water and all that...

Merry Christmas everyone. Hope Santa is good to you all.xx http://www.kyphilom.com/www/gif/santa1.jpg (ooh..get me, posting a link. Pure accident )

So will we..

I'm working. However, we've sponsored a young chap who had his sponsor sheet at the Cooper Suite on Sat evening.. I'll encourage our youngest and her father to walk.

Katie and I put the kettle on for this thread starting.... And the party in the Cooper suite last night was fantastic!!

We heard the report on the radio at 5 that Jim Gannon refused to talk to the media, and no member of the team was made available to speak..... And honestly, it was slevering at its worst, from the reporter announcing the "news" to the announcer toying with the "scoop"...slever, slever, slever.

The two of you should have sat together then...company for each other.

I wish I'd written this post. I agree with everything that Ya Bezzer wrote.

Is that the same as poison oak? And not wishing to detract from the thread, the description of the seed blend is amazing. Horticulture is fascinating.

There are women at this game all those years ago...Well I never!!!

What a fantastic result...excellent.

. I'd love to have gone. I love quizzes. I'm rubbish at them...a sort of Tourettes develops, and I shout out all the wrong answers, but have a great time. We're doing the Hamilton show in the Town House, from the Friday 13th Nov, through to the following week, so wouldn't be able to make it. Best of luck with the night.

He said it earlier.

...I'm a fairweather supporter. I go to FP when its sunny and not too cold, and there are no wasps. And watch your spelling...and don't waste your post by being rude...

Rebels without a clue.....

Flattery.....

What dreadful and very sad news. Our thoughts are with her family, and of course the Club she served so well. I have had the great fortune to have known Betty and her beloved husband Alex for a number of years, since the Club days with Bill Samuel as Chairman. Lately, she had been so kind and interested in us as a family, and arranged only a few weeks ago for our youngest's eighteenth to be made known during the match betwen Motherwell and Man United. Rest in Peace Betty, and I'll bet Alex was waiting for her with open arms. xx

...less of the "fat", you cheeky youth...

You were only supposed to eat it...no chat it up!!

..see???? You eat lobster. You're a man!!

I object to being called a bastard, particularly when the adjective defines exactly what kind of bastard I happen to be at that precise time. Fat, blonde, cheeky, specky, ignorant, patronising...not even the heat of the moment justifies it. But bastard has become so commonplace that its original meaning is now irrelevant. I also object to discussion and debate on this forum reduced to personal insult. However, it sorts the men from the boys....
