  1. Didn’t Happen Of The Year Awards. A Twitter account which calls people out for bad social media lies. Runs an end of year award after a voting system that plays them off against each other until you have an overall winner for that year. Was quite funny for a while, but eventually, like the internet tends to do, it created a lynch mob on everyones posts and got a bit of a bullying feel to it.
  2. Apparently it’s because I’ve mentioned DHOTYA in the past. She’s blocked everyone who’s ever mentioned them, which must be in the hundreds of thousands. Fair play.
  3. It turns out Janey Godley has blocked me, despite her and I never having any interaction on twitter. Really doubt I’m missing much, but pretty odd all the same
  4. Been thinking about the toilet situation at Stark’s, as it’s going to be particularly important in getting us back into stadiums when the football returns. There are currently 3 cubicles for the whole South Stand, is that correct? We basically need to get rid of the urinals and replace them with more cubicles. How many would fit in that space? We likely have many fans with the required skills to help fit these into place. What else can the fans do to help? Can we get out ahead of this and have them in place?
  5. Would thoroughly recommend Derren Brown, too. There’s about a day’s worth of content in the ones I’ve suggested. Anyway, ‘Joe Rogan thread for this’ etc.
  6. Joe Rogan’s podcast has its moments. Off the top of my head I’ve really enjoyed David Goggins, Elon Musk, Steve-O, Lance Armstrong, Edward Snowden, Kevin Hart, Mike Tyson and my absolute favourite being Nick Yarris. Nick Yarris spent 22 years on death row in The States for a crime he didn’t commit. His story is fucking incredible.
  7. Watson is a very good signing for any Championship side. As for Gullan, I know a few boys he is friends with. I’ll see what I can find out.
  8. Finally bought some new pedals and clip in shoes. Can’t wait to topple over at 1mph at my first red light.
  9. One thing I would say about that 320 mile ride is that the total calories are surely nonsense. Unless he’s 25 stone and did it on a penny farthing.
  10. Heard Rovers didn’t get any compensation for Nisbet. Can anyone confirm?
  11. 105 miles today with my brothers. Needless to say, the longest I’ve done. Great day for it.
  12. https://www.stonewallermag.co.uk/post/robbie-thomson-shutouts-shutdowns Good interview with a Robbie Thomson here, featuring a load of my old Rovers strips.
  13. Quick run down of the Bill Clark interview: - Club’s position is that this is not the right time to do reconstruction. - Mid October restart date. Intention to play betfred cup 7th October. First league match 17th. Bring players back 17th August. Each of these dates may be plus or minus up to 7 days. - Hopfefully November/December for spectators. Possibly as late as January. 20/25% capacity Not possible to get near capacity under 2m guidance. 1000/1500 if it was 1m. Supplies of face masks and gel being sourced. - 982 season tickets last season. No set date for date of sale. As soon as how many home games we have, we can get them on sale. Maybe available in 4/5 weeks. - Televised games. Raith TV may be able to commentate on top of Pixelot footage, and have their own camera alongside it. - James Anderson. Each club applies, we have filed ours already. Expenditure must be covid related. Don’t know what the testing regime will look like for players and staff. - Supporters contributions are now topping £96k. Thinks money will be tight come December/January. Under 20 fans asked for the season ticket money back. Rovers want those fans to get in touch and see if they are able to help further either with financial help or otherwise. - How are we spending the money? Most going to go into the players wages when it recommences. Keeping most for that. Utility bills, ground improvements. But vast amount on the wages.
  14. We’ve got a full squad and management on furlough. We’ll be signing no one. It’s that same boy posting more tragic patter, take no notice.
  15. That’s one of the first games I can remember being at, aged 6.
  16. Rovers have a similar scheme. Last count we have 322 contributors donating almost £6k a month
  17. John’s interview as a whole was fantastic. Speaks so highly of everyone at the club. Wish him all the best.
  18. Speaks volumes that every single ex player you speak to says Stephen Simmons was a great player. Still can’t believe the level of hard time he got from our fans.
  19. I’ve done 174 miles in the last week, really starting to feel a lot fitter. Completed 527 miles in May which I’m really pleased with. Just, in the last day or 2, switched to a proper road bike from a gravel bike and the difference is mad. Absolutely in love with the full out road biking experience
