  1. Not sure what you mean. I was referring to the publicity on the day of the GN if it won it.
  2. More tha a whiff of a "Kinnock" in the air right now when it comes to Labour
  3. I will set it up for someone Did they announce when he died ?
  4. You seem to be mistakenly attaching this bye nonsense with league performance. The roaster suggesting it wants the 2 ugllies to get a bye, not the top 2 teams in the league.
  5. That will happen by default, it will be a case of whether they threaten to go further than withhold more than the proposed 5% settlement figure hence most LAs considering a rise are looking at figs above 5%. Councils need to read the room here too. A huge swathe of the public don't think along the lines of "Council services need more money". When it comes to tax rises they tend to be unpopular in general. Some Councillors will see their trough in danger. We will know soon enough this all has to play out in the next fortnight or so. First Council budget announcements due this week.
  6. Max is fine, get a grip it's a game of football ffs.
  7. Aye that is exactly what I'm doing . The nick of these roasters. Please believe I'm not one of them is a pathetic line from anyone supporting the arse cheeks. Anyway better things to do with my Sunday night. On to livi next week in our Euro quest.
  8. Not guilty, I'm not believing it. WTAF are you on ? I have no idea about this as it's long before I bothered about anything connected to our club but posting that nonsense and trying to put your own guilty spin on it is beyond reprehensible. Get a fucking life you piece of utter bigot scum. What do you actually stoop to when your team actually loose ?
  9. Pmsl at this. Crowd given as a laughable 4k odds just to get the bigots up the road with hee haw in their hipper financially. Long may this continue.
  10. Good to see it in plain sight. Anti bigot = Lovejoy. Thanks for confirming that the arse cheeks are total kuntz.
  11. We know the powers that be accept it and are accepting of it. The most obvious example is the constant apologies by TV commentators for "unacceptable language" by supporters of just about every other team involved in a televised match (latest example Cappielow on the BBC Friday night but Sky are constantly doing it too) when not a Dickie bird is said when thousands of them are "up their knees" or glorifying banned terrorist organisations. It's blatant and it's that acceptance that drives people away from games against them.
  12. Is it not just their refusal to sit that makes it look packed (I've always assumed that's the whole point of them standing). Pretty sure it's not as simple of passing the QR code back to a mate, if that was the case we would barely be selling half the tickets as those thieving arse cheeks would have seized on it years ago.
  13. Of course. Old age getting the better of me there.
  14. The vast majority of Saints fans share your hatred stemming back to a horrendous assault on Martin Baker (IIRC) years ago.
  15. A lot of those are done through BOGOF or 3 for 2 and these offers are still controlled by local Council licenses. South Ayrshire are your original prohibition merchants, been banned here for years now. Now beer on the beach, not even allowed points on loyalty cards for booze or quiz vouchers to be used for alcohol.
  16. I see Mone and Barrowmans racehorses are not subject to their asset freeze and they will continue to run in their name and colours. One of their horses is 3rd fav anti post for the National. It would be unheard of for winning owners of a GN horse not to be there on the day. Usually that would result in massive publicity especially when they come from outwith the racing community.
  17. I think the MUP policy isn't really having the effect it was intended however there are a couple of questions about how to deal with that. Assuming those opposing it at Holyrood have a majority after the next Scottish election will they simply abolish it and if they do will alcohol come down in price ie how will manufacturers and retailers actually deal with it. I have a hunch the geenie is out the bottle (no pun intended) here and even if scrapped the cost of alcohol will either stay roughly as it is or be reduced a penny or two. Retailers will have this "built in" to overall costs and as they are the main beneficiary as it stands, I simply don't see them slashing the price of booze if the flawed scheme is scrapped unfortunately. It's not a direct tax that would simply be removed. Think this has got to the stage of damned if they do and damned if they don't for us the consumers.
