  1. A Raith Rovers fan complaining about PPV prices? At least Hearts don't vary them dependant upon who they are playing.


    The first in what should be the second fixture against each other of the season.
     
    Footballing side, no idea what our team/bench will look like with the Covid-19 outbreak last week. Haven’t had a game since Queens (29-Dec), and training would be limited due to the outbreak. No idea when players are due back either. Other than the announcement yesterday, it is game on however.
     
    Hearts fans, £18.50 for the stream... is that because Budge is desperate to claw some of the legal fee’s money back (obviously tongue & cheek), or has that been your price for all league games this season? Seems well pricey, and had we not had games called off, I would probably have sacked it off & just listened to it, but since we’ve not had a game in weeks, I’ll grudgingly pay it.
  2. That's a bit of an unfair advantage getting to train on the playing surface, we only get that benefit playing Alloa away.

    It's now used by the club for training purposes, much to the annoyance of the groundsman who thought that he was creating a show lawn inside. The drawback is that it will be an absolute mess and susceptible to postponements through the winter, but our home record in the past 18 months has been decent enough to justify the change. 
  3. Update on car buying....

    Was gutted after a found a pre registered Leon in Kent (Covid epicentre)IMG_1610103792.214970.jpg and they sold it while I was negotiating me getting there after lockdown.

    Ended up going PCH on an Octavia for £190/month. Not leased before but probably makes more sense in current uncertain climate with electrification, Covid, Brexit etc.

  4. Raith Rovers media currently live text from home club streams, to a world wide audience with no complaint that revenue is being denied.
    If permission is granted for media to attend the away game and broadcast audio commentary why is this different to sitting in a room to do the same?

    It’s only a bargain £12 to see the game at EEP. There was no freebie commentary available from Starks, no and you lot bumped the PPV price up to £14.

    Faux grievance.

    Just buy the stream and listen to our fantastic commentary if you can’t bear to watch.

    You can get text commentary from RRFC or DAFC on Twitter. the BBC will have text commentary too. No doubt they’ll also have someone at the game to give updates on the radio too.
  5. I used to listen to Galloway’s talk show just for the folk that were on the wind. He was always on guard with the “dump the call” button, so much so that even legitimate callers no doubt got punted. It needed someone with real guile to construct a yarn in such a way as to give nothing away until the punchline, and a further 5 seconds for it to be worked out.

    No doubt the QoS fellow who okay’d George getting in, is feeling similarly duped.

  6. Would you not break your teeth. Surely for decoration only?

    Granite apples. What is the fucking point? 
    All that effort for what? A bunch of tasteless seeds that require surgery to get out and make your kitchen look like a horror film scene with red splatters over all the walls. 
    If I found myself on a desert island with only these to eat, I'd starve myself out of spite. 
  7. Take it to a remote location, pour accelerant all over it and light with a match. Keyser Soze style.

     

    Report stolen.

     

    Collect insurance.

     

    *if there are no sharp edges, it is just the plastic trim, and mirror has no tape obscuring view and is solid, then can't see it being a fail.

     

    Alternatively get a quote from an online scrappy to send the part.

     

    About 6 months ago someone knocked the drivers side wingmirror on my car and shattered the casing but the glass is still all fine. I've taped it up and it's held all this time. Would it still fail an MOT?
