Boghead ranter

no no, it's a gift!

CRACKERJACK!

So they've been cooking this up since 2-3 weeks before the admin happened? And still they can't get a cohesive plan together?

Apologies if mentioned - too many pages to catch up on. Keevins asked on Scoreboard what he thought of the Record's back page with the 3 silhouettes of the panel, and how it might incite eejits. *irony alert for the following response* Keevins replied "I'm not on here representing the Daily Record, I'm on here as a free-thinking individual with an opinion of my own" The caller should have asked what his free-thinking individual personal opinion of the back page was.

re these Proddy and Kafflick breakaway leagues. We at Dumbarton FC are beginning to feel like the fat kid at PE that gets left right to the end of team selection, with both team captains shrugging and shuffling their feet, hoping the other will pick us before they have to. Or trying to bargain with "I'll take the wee specky AND the guy with the permalimp, if you take DFC". PLeeeeeeeeeeaase let us in, we've got a big f*ckoff castle right next to the ground, surely that counts for something?

That was my spontaneous-guffaw-and-nearly-get-into-trouble-at-work moment for today. Glad I'd saved a green.

I logged on at roughly 7.50, and it was 600 short of the million, now, an hour later, it's 800+ over. 1500 views an hour, at 8am? jeezo.

No wonder things are hardly moving!

Damn - ran out of greens! Don't tell 'im, Pike!

awesome episode last night, very unexpected twist at the end (well for a gullible fool like me anyway). And a no-nudity episode too! Roll on next week, I don't do looking ahead on t'internet.

Thanks for taking the time to try to answer something that's probably been answered 20 squillion posts ago and I've forgotten. I thought £18mill of the Ticketus money was used to pay the bank, but the debt was actually transferred to a Whyte company instead. Where did the Ticketus money go then? Or is that the obvious question that I've seen asked before that no-one's been able to answer?

It can't be owed to both Ticketus AND Whyte's company though surely, so which is it?

Not quite personally, but I'm on a pay freeze for the next year, yet they owe my employer over £129 grand.

what about when she gets her kit off?

Isn't that what these events are all about though? 'Dry runs' to check procedures and efficiencies? Hopefully it'll be better come the event itself. even if it isn't, it's still better then some radical madskull detonating a rucksack in amongst everybody.

must've been awesome. Quite jealous.

*bump* Monday night, 9pm!

Keeping up with this must gradually be enveloping my life - I've been in half a dozen stations over the last couple of days, and read every single 'tickets' sign as 'ticketus'.

take it that's a person they chose? Strange, as I've just had to sit on the news for over 3 months, while LOCOG carried out the "necessary security and clearance checks" to try and avoid negative stories like that.

you forgot to add "ya do-gooding b'stard"

for 15 years work coaching basketball the underpriveleged kids of Dumbarton, then a further 8 or 9 years coaching basketball in Grangemouth when I moved through here, and for the last couple of years the charity work I've done between running and making a twat of myself in Movember.

thanks!

you're the second person that's planted that seed in my head this morning.
