  1. I've now read that they are Jamaican nationals and as such have no legal right to stay, the UK gov deports foreign nationals with criminal records such as Eastern Europeans on a daily basis, the same would apply to a UK subject committing a crime overseas. I have also read that one of them has been in the UK since he was five years old, now that decision should be reviewed fair enough, but it questions why his parents did not apply for UK citizenship given that Jamaica being a former colony would be viewed favourably by the Home Office.
  2. There's been a lot of dissent over travel distances involved should they gain promotion, Annan would be a 600 mile round trip, I've heard the support are split but I suppose the final decision would lie with the board and finances would play a big part.
  3. That'll be an interesting tie, both of them keen to make the move to senior in Div2, Brora are running away with the HL but I doubt if they'll be interested in making the move to senior.
  4. Back in the early eighties Jack Ups with max 300 feet legs were drilling comfortably with an air gap of 50 feet hull to sea level off Blackpool and Morecombe bay. Crew changes by chopper were out of Blackpool.
  5. I thought that at it's deepest it's 175 Mtrs off Galloway, Jack Ups were used regularly in the Irish Sea.
  6. How can they be classed as foreigners if they are British subjects ??? surely that's totally illegal??
  7. So much for the Banff and Cruden Bay Church of Scotland minister's great grandaughter.
  8. And she's not alone, come our Independence there are many of these who will find themselves unwanted in Scotland and abandoned by the english media because of their Scottish accents.
  9. Never keen on visits to any city based stadium, parking is always an issue and the pubs nearer the ground are always populated with home fans with away fans not welcome, we haven't got a great record against Hibs but this will be a tough game and I feel we have a good chance of winning this game however given that we beat the team above them on saturday.
  10. Your board gave them three stands the other week, no doubt they will do the same again.
  11. Don't beat about the bush, Douglas Ross is a first class shite as a linesman and a politico.. Tommy Walsh played better when his hair was longer???????
  12. Hopefully we draw Celtic as they are due a sound thrashing. And then to top the day a televised interview with an irate Jacqueline after the game. We don't need a second tier premier league team, no money in that.
  13. With your poor away record on grass maybe Livi should feck the plastic off and replace it with grass.
  14. That twat got at least three decisions wrong against us
  15. It was always going to be a difficult game with that weather and so it proved, the first half hour Livi looked the goods with Lawson and Lawless working well on the right wing and then the game settled down and for me it could have gone either way, too much hoofing high balls from all including the goalkeepers, for me Welsh and Carson played well but in those conditions I felt that the team as a whole put in a good hard working shift.
  16. Bernie Saunders voted at least five times against gun control and was aware as a Senator that thousands including schoolchildren throughout America were being shot and killed. His excuse for voting was that people like to hunt in Vermont. So a crazy man goes into a gunshop purchases a high powered rifle and pistol and then goes on a killing spree because somebody upset him.
  17. It has oil and gas reserves off Cork and the Kish Bank gas field off Dublin, plus there are estimated large reserves off the Irish west coast, there was in the past a small boom in exploration however the politicians such as Conor Cruise O'Brien shot themselves in the foot when they adopted a policy of intending screwing the oil companies for every penny, they thought the UK gov soft in offering 16% drilling costs in the North Sea if said company had a 3% stake in a producing North Sea field, so their policy was to hold the companies to ransom resulting in major oil companies fuckin them off, so in effect you have virtually nil exploration off Ireland and the UK continues to produce on a large scale, BTW Gordon Brown put paid to that 16% drilling costs deal.
  18. More and likely due to the 12.5% Corporate tax rate attracting foreign investment. Have a look though at the booming Romanian economy.
  19. Well it probably will generate more excitement at the stadium and with the fans compared to our oh so lean January incoming transfer dealings.
  20. I wonder who that could be? must be his only friend on here. No doubt there will be a reincarnation of Sir Tarmo/Rosewell/AB de Villiers. Aided and abetted by his friend the mod.
  21. It will not affect my family's membership in any way but I am convinced there are those amongst the membership who will be affected, plus there are more sordid rumours on Alex Salmond going around which may come to the fore.
  22. This will have a massive effect on the party, with Salmonds mess and now this I can see many members thinking twice about their membership, what a fool.
