It's about the same. I was buying one of their Fraoch 22's at the same time so it changed the price a bit. Still cheaper than buying them in Tesco who are charging £1.75 a bottle. And of course no shipping cost. They don't have a shop so you just sort of turn up and wander in. They're quite friendly.

IMO the best that they do. Birds and Bees and Grozet not far behind. Their brewery is close to the house so it's handy to pop down and pick up a few crates now and again. Their Ceilidh lager is also pretty good.

I work in Larbert so drive through Plean quite a bit. There really is no need for that place to exist. Armadale - my God that place is grim. Honourable mentions to Holytown (which just looked completely closed) and Forth (which just looks isolated from the rest of humanity)

Alloa played Celtic at Brockville in the Scottish Cup back in 2002 after police decided the Recs was unsuitable to host the match due to it's small capacity.

Agreed. A fantastic game. One of the best days I've had as an Alloa fan (we don't get that many) Good to see you think the same even though you missed out. Cheers to everyone for the well wishes. It's taken us a while to come out with a public statement but it was well worth the wait.

Phew. Was getting concerned for a few days. Very welcome news.

I reckon this is why Stenny and ourselves wanted yesterdays meeting postponed. How on earth can the SFL vote before the SPL? SFL needs to hold firm. Stand them off. Then if nobody makes any decision no newco is admitted to any league and we play next season a team short. If I know our chairman he'll be pushing for exactly this if there is no vote today.

We'll be a definite no to SFL1. Just havn't announced it publicly yet.

Alloa have just posted on the official website that they are seeking fans views. If the replies on the Duffle are anything to go by then it will be a definite no. Also don't think our chairman has any great love for the team formerly known as Rangers.

Emergency board meeting planned at Alloa Ath. to confirm their position on this. I certainly hope we do the right thing and vote accordingly when the time comes. At least the Chairman now knows my feelings on this.

Closed doors under Hartley definitlely means closed doors. This might help a bit - http://www.alloaathletic.co.uk/BlogView.aspx?pageid=2&ItemID=561&mid=2

Dont know if this is any help but Larbert to Stirling via Plean is fine. If I can get through anyone can.

That's a distinct possibility. One of the guys in the office asked me last Monday if I had 4 wheel drive on my car. I just looked at him. Then burst out laughing. It's not so much grip that's my problem. Basically because the snow hasn't been cleared at all on the road into our car park my car is grounding itself on the ice underneath. Rode my luck so far. Not pushing it for tomorrow as its going to freeze like f**k tonight. Not taking the wife's car as she's trading it in on Saturday and I really don't want to risk crashing it.

To be fair though I did make it in today and all of last week which is more than the guys with a Subaru Forester and Nissan Juke did. No show from the Audi drivers too.

Well I left work at 2. No way was I pissing about in that at 5. Absolute joke trying to get out of our Industrial Estate. Even the cops were going round roundabouts the wrong way. Of course I meet a big f**k off truck when I try it. It's the train for me tomorrow (if they're on). My car doesn't like this at all.

Alloa to Larbert pretty tricky this morning. Still pishing it down. Looks like I'll need the shovel out to get home. Fun and games again. Just heard the A80 northbound is shut.

Pishing it down in Larbert just now. This keeps up and I'm not getting out of our car park today. Ho hum.

Alloa to Larbert - no problem. The last 100m into our car park - 1.25 hrs. Where is LiviClyde when I need him?

Just back from watching Sherlock Holmes. Even with Guy Ritchie directing we thought it was very good. Robert Downey jr and Jude Law make an entertaining double act. Good updated version. Definitely a sequel planned. 8/10

Started last Saturday, Einstein.

Couldnt agree more especially the last sentence. I would have expected Airdrie to finish higher in the league than us. No sympathy at all for the bunch of cheats. I assume we voted the right way today.

Aye, you couldn't make it up. I hope our representative does the right thing and votes accordingly. If it is who I think it is then I don't think there will be much sympathy for Livi.

Isn't it the League Management Committee that are meeting today? Representation from Airdrie United, Albion Rovers, Ayr United, Alloa Athletic, Arbroath, Partick Thistle along with Malcolm Mackay and Jim Leishman.

Surely for Livingston to continue as a football club they are going to have to deal with other businesses on a day to day basis. Which businesses local or otherwise will be mad enough to deal with this bunch. "What do you mean you need payment for your services. What madness is this? Can you wait a year or so then we can offer you a fraction of what we owe? If you're lucky"
