    We did the Circle Line boat tour at night. Thoroughly recommend. The tour guide was very good and very funny. The views were gorgeous. So different at night. We did Top of The Rock at night as well. Hindsight would probably have made sense to do one at night and one during the day.

    Best sightseeing tip I ever received about going up skyscrapers and the like was to time your visit so you get up there just before it gets dark, then you get the day and night views for the price of one.

    I watched that game in a hospital after having my appendix removed the previous day. A sickie from school to watch the game that went a bit too far😂

    Half the kids in the country gave school a miss that day, including me.

    The controversial referee turned out to be spying for the Stasi back home. Makes sense that someone attracted to refereeing would also enjoy grassing citizens in to the authorities. I'll bet some of our pint sized whistling twerps would go for that too.

    Good article on Stevie Cowan. Interesting to read the circumstances when big Jim Clunie let him go.

    Presume references to players being "snapped up" as soon as they were free agents is a convenient euphemism for guys who had been tapped up by Fergie while they still weren't free agents.

  4. I always go back to when St Mirren opened their new stadium in the middle of winter, and week after week you were hearing compliments from the opposition about the novelty of playing on a pristine surface at that time of year. 

    Then we knocked Celtic out of the Scottish Cup on it and the pitch genuinely got its own trial by Sportscene feature for being "too firey" and other such pish.😃

  5. Will be interested to see how the various parties spin Spain winning a World Cup after the rebel episode, with the rebels mostly still missing.

    I read an article yesterday portraying the coach as a (now World Cup winning) dumpling and implying that the players had been left out, whereas the BBC commentator said today that those players had excluded themselves, which is a big difference to the narrative.

    Kettlewell conveniently forgetting McGinn's tackle immediately after Dunne and the fact Mugabi was an absolute stone wall red card.

    Shades of the time Motherwell were crying to the compliance officer about Jim Goodwin banjoing that dodgy Scouse gambler guy, but were seemingly completely oblivious that their own boy had done enough during the incident to get himself a two game ban as well. 😀

    Which he then got. Which they then cried about too.
