"Is that Chinese? I also like Chinese..."

I found the placing of the advert quite funny:

Mackie injecting money into the club in an attempt to gain promotion whilst keeping Price would be the definitive example of an oxymoron. A classic case of 'heart over brains' from somebody who's a successful businessman away from the game.

That Record article is an absolute cringe of a read. Will the toys also be thrown out the pram next season if Buckie face a Broch team riddled with injuries/ suspensions in a rearranged fixture, or we have to play Buckie (or any other side) with a weakened squad? "Why did they choose that particular day instead of the week after when it would have been fairer, wah". Looking closer to home where the league's top goalscorer was demoted to the bench might be a better place to explain how we lost out on GD. A single point against the Broch or Buckie would have avoided that utter embarrassment of an interview.

This is where I have to take off my Brechin bonnet and say that I don't think it should be passed down. As much as "an externally funded billy big baws club without a decent ground shouldn't stop the progression of other ambitious clubs" might seem a sound principle, it would be absolutely mental for every playoff semi-final to be LL winners vs Strathspey (in a hypothetical case that Brechin didn't have bronze, or has been promoted already). Saying "give it to the next team down as long as they're not a certain standard of pi5h" doesn't seem particularly practical.

A roundabout way of saying 'buying success', much like Man City showing the ambition to play in the CL rather than settle for mediocrity.

Those button operated car boots that open at a glacial speed. Just let me close the ba5tard door.

I've been mostly wearing the same shoes for over a decade now, and they feel brand new. That said, I only bought them last month as I just buy an identical pair every few years once the sole wears through seeing as they've not been discontinued yet. Quickest shoe shopping ever. ETA: I regularly wear my Scotland strip from 2006 (the 'Gary Caldwell vs France' one) whilst hill walking / caving as it makes a handy light underlayer and stays warm even when wet.

Hate to say it, but told ya.

Unless you're Buckie. They seem to be very slow at reporting opposition goals, sometimes only acknowledging them via the HT & FT updates.

10-man Brora equaliser. Don't even get on the bus Price.

Almost had a heart attack there until I clocked that 'RR' refers to Rob Roy rather than Raith Rovers.

Being east of the strait at Craigton Point, it's actually the (Inner) Moray Firth.
