  1. Who was the last Brechin manager who didn't have you calling for his resignation within weeks?
  2. They lifted the bail restrictions.
  3. There's a bus from nearly outside my door in Inverness that gets me to Kyleakin for opening time, and a bus back early evening. Was considering stopping the night but the B&B/hotel prices are mental, Then Ness or Barra for the next round..
  4. Trump promised he'd get her on The Apprentice, and fix it so she'd get through to the later episodes.
  5. It's a bit odd that he's not allowed to live in the same house as his wife, and his co-accused. I haven't heard of that before in bail conditions.
  6. Fair enough, nicked from Jimmy Shaker and FitbaNorth. Clach got at least 8 points from that lot.
  7. Buckie won 8 of their 10 fixtures against top 6 League opposition, losing one and drawing one. Brechin won 4, losing 5 and drawing one.
  8. Will EK be livestreaming the first leg?
  9. This video should reassure you on transferring tickets on the app, I bought a ticket from somebody last Euros and it was straightforward, you just need to enter the email of the person who's buying it off you and click transfer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roGCRCcDAKc P.S. The above is if you got your ticket through the public lottery, if you got it through the SSC the process of transferring your ticket is more complicated.
  10. I know UEFA are saying there will be no further opportunities to sell tickets through their resale hub but I don't believe it for a second, it would be pushing trade to touts like Stubhub etc, especially for the knockout rounds when loads of people will have tickets they no longer want. Regarding @Morton Supporter 's spare Hungary ticket, I doubt there will be any shortage of people on this forum willing to take it off his hands for face value..
  11. Have to disagree there, Strathspey Thistle are nothing like the monumental mess Fort William were in their final years in the Highland League. Getting Fraserburgh and Buckie twice each for their last four games when the championship was looking like coming down to goal difference was harsh in the extreme, especially after their manager had jumped ship and the word was about a whole new squad, board and management set up for next season. Results didn't go their way over the season but most clubs struggled to get the points off them.
  12. Given the potential pathways I think I'm going to dump Maryburgh without ever seeing them play, and go glory hunting with Stratton Wanderers.
  13. A comparison with the English pyramid would be interesting re league sizes, tier levels and attendences. Unable to check it out at the moment.
  14. The 10 club league experiment has brainwashed people into thinking that only promotion and demotion matters, league position outside that and beating your rivals is irrelevant.
  15. It was Jinnah who insisted on Partition against the wishes of Britain and Nehru. The Muslim League that he led threatened war if it didn't come about.
  16. Agreed, I don't get why SPFL fans seem so keen on playing each other 4 times minimum a season. I get that the difference between promotion and demotion can be very tight and brings pressure to nearly every game, but it also means managers are terrified of trying out young players or experimenting with tactics, getting time for new systems to bed in.
  17. You have to wonder a demoted SPFL club will ever make the return journey, and whether the SPFL will ever realise that blocking automatic promotion from tier 5 actually makes it more difficult.
  18. 7 more wins for Dundee North End and the Championship will be theirs, hopefully announced at halftime during Germany v Scotland!
  19. Mick Kennedy will likely let half his 35 plus crew away on stags again for the play offs like with Darvel, and maybe Spider too, so I won't be betting on the outcome.
  20. Buckie got beaten by Lossie, Clach and Wick, and drew with Vale, all since February. That shows you how badly Brechin failed.
  21. I think they must have already promised to make the upgrades required within a year to qualify for the play offs. There was a deadline to commit to it for any club who had a chance of winning a while ago.
  22. You might think about widening your gates and ordering extra pies.
