Here, where's Mark O Hara?

Aye, if I recall Kelly was having a go at Eric Black and it ended up with Terry overhearing it and asking him to repeat it to him.
Allegedly it ended with Kelly pinned against the door of the dressing room getting a right going over.0 -
First set of jags for the wee one today, she was a trooper and calmed down very quickly after it all.
Just hoping the side effects don't come to much for her.0 -
They are apparently building a link road from the M74 to the M8 that is going to run up through ravenscraig. No idea where our how but that was the chat a few months back when they announced the start of the next phase which has just started.I love Fir Park as much as the next 'Well fan, but we need to realise that the place is in its final years. It costs a lot of money to maintain each year.
With regards to the new stadium, I'm assuming the land next to the new College is where we'd be looking? In saying that, I hope theres someway of improving the transport links as one through road would get very busy very quickly on a matchday. I remember there was chat about opening a train station in Ravenscraig. Is that still a possibility?
As for how the stadium will look, I've got every confidence, with the people in charge we currently have, it won't be a horrendous St Mirren style effort. If you take the time to look around (certainly around Scandinavia) then you'll find great wee stadiums around the 10,000 mark which would be ideal for us.

Don't think it is just the main stand, the pitch is a massive drain and the east must take a load upkeep as well, judging by the nick of the concourse yesterday after the rain.Is it just the main stand that is the drain in terms of upkeep, could it be replaced with a more modest single tiered effort and dispersing offices and hospitality between the new and existing stands
I don't think there is much that could be done with the main anyway due to the houses and given the estates now where the old college was, I think we would get a fair whack by developers to carry that further up, houses basically back onto the south stand now.
A new stadium is hugely overdue and I anticipate it will be in this next phase of the ravenscraig development.0 -
Florence is amazing, we were over last summer for a few days, based ourselves in Verona and as the above said did the opera, amazing and I'm in no way an opera fan, but Carmen outside by candlelight was unreal. Florence was only an hour and a half away and Bologna about half way so we chose Florence as the train times worked out better. Stunning views over the city and all the architecture was amazing as well as the tuscan food and wine. Would go back to either Verona or Florence again in a heartbeat.

Casper Sloth on Instagram replying to someone asking why he isn't playing saying 'don't ask me, I'm fit and ready'..... We all working under the assumption that he's just a massive w****r then?

Aye, don't go near pram centre or Jan Stewart. Absolute rip offs.
We got ours from infababy and its top notch. Full 3 in 1 system for about 400 Inc the isofix.0 -
Slow mo on sportscene confirmed what we all knew, Bruce deserved to go for his vicious last man lunge.

Donnelly slipped, booted it into the ground and off his foot and right up into the air. Mental. Nick Hancock video worthy.

Absolute heads gone from a lot of Killie fans on social media and on here.
It was never a red card, an outstanding challenge and a reassertion of our place as thee establishment club in the SPFL. Pleasing.1 -
Shout out to Sherwin for becoming a member of the illustrious Mario Doerner club in hitting the top of the Cooper stand with a shot.

A full midweek card and not a sign of sportscene? Fairly sure they usually have one on at about 1am after the games but I can't see any sign of it this time.
Infact the only highlights of the Motherwell vs Killie game are literally showing the goals, not even the red card. What is this shit?

Civic centre or doctors across the road from it. Don't be put off by the barriers at the civic, they raise automatically.Wheres good for parking near the ground?
Watch out for roadworks too, airbles road is single lane at the electric bar and 3 way lights at windmillhill street causing grief down to the roundabout at asda coming through the town.0 -
Just saw it on sportscene as was out during the game, that was an embarrassing attempt from Tavernier but of course Mr PenaltytoRangers couldnae wait to give it. Unreal.

It's a tragedy that the blog is no longer online, having to piece it together on the original thread just isn't as good.... Any chance of a return of it somewhere [mention=13408]dundeebarry[/mention]I've not been here long, but caught up with the P&B Gold stuff early doors, most of which has reduced me to tears of laughter in work at various times.But the best I've seen is the reason I came here to begin with, the Leigh Griffiths blog.
"As far as motivational techniques go it’s highly unconventional, but firing a semi-naked, knife-wielding Eddie Malone from a cannon into the midst of United’s training session at Tannadice is one heck of a team building exercise." still has me in tears every time I read it!

This needs to be on the AVFTT light board! Outstanding.There is some golden Kilt content in this thread, including some screenshots.

I believe he flung a TV off a wall saying it was faulty because they wouldn't allow a return of it.What was it that Stuart Dickson did in Comet again?2 -
Fucks a hibs fan daeing here?
That was rotten. The earliest I've left a game since the Friday night game vs Celtic when they did the refurbishment to the south stand.1 -
Alan Campbell has some jerseys he's selling if anyone wants one.
A sentence I never thought I'd type.0 -
100%Remember Motherwell utilising these tactics many times in the past. Frustrating to watch when losing to it.0 -
Every time we go forward it's 11 men behind the ball, it's effective but it's chronic to watch.
Think that’s an unfair comment on Aberdeen mate. We’re hardly playing with 11 in our own half. Despite having so many defenders on the pitch, this is the most attacking and positive I’ve seen us in weeks.
Cosgrove took advantage of us being down to 10 men with a guy who failed in the championship at centre back covering at the back and took his goal well, no doubt.
Other than that and a horrendous dive for the penalty, the game has been rancid but that'll suit Aberdeen just fine.0 -
Dreadful. Motherwell are playing like statues and consistently making the wrong decision, two things which are not going to get success against a team with all 11 in their own half at all times.

I suspect that Baraclough being the u21 manager and having worked with both Robinson and Craigan there are stronger ties and pulls there to the overall 'system' than either Wright or Healy.
