  1. The Academie Francaise would insist on renaming them Sevceaux, but I think we can all live with that.
  2. There's no better way to demonstrate our irrelevance to you than by posting on our thread loads, I reckon.
  3. Nice post. Re the bit in bold, it was also a return to the top flight following arguably the bleakest period in our club's history. The 90s were properly grim for us. Club-ending takeover narrowly avoided; years of just anonymous shite and second tier mediocrity. It was our first promotion for a couple of decades and felt all the more special as a result.
  4. Hate to be that guy but you've conflated some of the 05-06 memories with the Millennium title there... (Challenge Cup win and Charlie Adam). Still, it's all good!
  5. I personally don't think that will be a factor. Of you're a current top flight club, then the prospect of being relegated to league two in the current setup is actually more likely, and equally undesirable.
  6. Nowt wrong with this sponsor, but it was on a huge plastic panel. It was never perfectly flat/smooth. Utterly ridiculous. (Quite liked the shirt aside from that. I was only 12, I think.)
  7. Wading in with big words that you can neither use correctly nor spell is also fairly tinpot, tbh. I'd suggest that 'quintessence' would have been the apposite choice in that sentence.
  8. She claiming they've got hundreds of thousands of supporters?! Maybe they could chip in a few quid each. Hundreds of thousands
  9. Yes: when Stuart Milne accused Gilmour of ruining Scottish football, after voting against changing the voting structure himself. What a fucking dick that man is.
  10. You'll be stretching your lead long before then. No wonder Budge is looking frantic while our owner is completely chill about the whole situation.
  11. Alan Main never relegated us and I bear no grudge. He's still a cheating c**t, though.
  12. That video has us picking up points gradually in the 90s. Odd.
  13. So they'll get to let fans back into McDiarmid before anywhere else in the top flight? Doesn't seem fair. Gordon Scott is now on the reconstruction group, btw. I don't think it'll make any material difference, but I do feel slightly better knowing that we're being represented.
  14. Agreed. Completely acceptable and accurate to call her a useless fucker, but there's no need to make it about her gender.
  15. I think it could work. Maybe throwing in a 3rd/4th play off to add a couple extra fixtures and make the final a one-off at a neutral venue? Potentially 30% of the second tier getting promoted would lessen the fear of the drop, you'd hope.
  16. The answer I have written down is "Because Dundee keep on doing it."
  17. I wonder if the administration points deduction rules will be relaxed around this. Or, if they do that, will every club just dive into administration? Or... Will so many clubs go into admin and take the deduction that everyone's basically starting on the same points anyway? Even with the prize money, a lot of clubs are going to be in a perilous state here.
