  1. I honestly thought she was black/Latina from some of the pics
  2. Episode 1 of the new season dropped on the usual places Sunday night. Decent watch
  3. Anyone using Louise Mensch for evidence in anything is beyond help. She's batshit mental
  4. And Jo Johnson has left the government to spend less time with his family
  5. What disturbs me most is the fact that a 15yr old came out with that. (allegedly) That's learned behavior and that is terrifyingly sad. /Before yesterday I couldn't tell you anything about Scott Brown's family and I wish that was still the case
  6. Go round to a Scottish tory and throw the cans at their TV. Bloody stupid to wreck your own TV
  7. That's the same bs that came out after they were liquidated. Most top flight clubs attendances increased. I'll be very happy if they never visit again
  8. Charlie would drop dead of a heart attack at the thought of actually working for a living. William would be distraught and go completely postal wiping out the wife and kids. Harry becomes King and England gets its first black Queen. Gammons self combust all over the shires
  9. Still unsure if Trump or Johnson was the biggest dick today. They really should be together in a plane crash
  10. He's Dutch, the Dutchman. Richard Gordon. There's been a shit - dunno who said it but he tried to walk it back. The comment, not the shit
  11. Em, no. One part of Scotland revels in this pish and the rest abhor it. Sick of this kak that it's Scotlands shame. Most of them haven't been in a church since school
  12. Can you find out where we fall off? I would have walked there on Thursday night
  13. You are the very definition of a twat. The non attending arsehole type that gives Aberdeen fans a bad name. Please get banned again
  14. From Edinburgh News section of the Scotsman Paul Heckingbottom confirmed in the aftermath of the 1-1 Betfred Cup draw at Stirling Albion that the club had dropped their interest in signing midfielder Funso Ojo from Scunthorpe. All the chat prior to Saturday's clash at Forthbank was on who had won the race for the 27-year-old Belgian’s signature – Aberdeen or Hibs. As it transpires, Ojo is set to be unveiled at Pittodrie within the next 24 hours. With Hibs having held discussions with the player and his representatives earlier this week, a pitch that head coach Heckingbottom admitted he and the recruitment department were extremely happy with, the former Leeds and Barnsley boss said the club had reached a decision that the “deal was no longer for them”. When probed further by the assembled media, he stressed that any future arrivals at Easter Road must be committing themselves for the “right reasons”. Derek McInnes’ Aberdeen appear to be in a position to offer a more lucrative financial package, not to mention the lure of European football this season. If that ticks the boxes for Ojo, then so be it. The player is perfectly within his right to do what is he feels is best for him and his family. Losing out on a player to one of your rivals is always a bit bruising for a football club. However, it’s not as if the club had put all their eggs in one basket in trying to lure Ojo to the Capital. The recruitment department has been pretty astute in recent seasons when it comes to bringing fresh faces to the club. Ojo is not the only No.6 that Hibs have been talking to. A quick glance at social media would suggest there is a general feeling of disappointment that Ojo has elected to join Aberdeen over the Easter Road side. Conversely, though, can Hibs get better value for money, considering they would have to spend the guts of £125,000 to get the player. Now may be the perfect opportunity for the club to crank up their pursuit of Genoa's Stephane Omeonga, a player tried and tested at this level on loan, back to Leith. Had Ojo signed on the dotted line, the chances of bringing back a player who flourished under Heckingbottom during the second half of last season and loves the club may have been completely over. Furthermore, let’s not bypass the fact that Ojo was part of a team that suffered relegation to English football’s fourth tier last season. He may have one of European football’s more recognised clubs in PSV to boast on his CV, but his career has been on a downwards trajectory ever since leaving Eindhoven in 2012. Yes, those statisticians out there will rightly point out he went on to make more than 100 appearances in the Dutch top flight – the majority of those while at Willem II – but so did Edwin de Graaf, and look how his short tenure in Leith turned out. Bluntly, if Ojo doesn't want to be at Hibs, then they've dodged a bullet. Ojo may go on to be a star for Aberdeen for many years to come, but Hibs may not lose too much sleep over this one. To continue Heckingbottom's relationship analogies, there are plenty more fish in the sea. /Not bitter
  15. I thought most of his funding sources had been shut down. PayPal binned him ages ago and the Just Giving mob canned him sharpish
  16. Take this to the Prince Andrew thread [emoji12]
  17. I want to hear that he's been shanked in the showers and bled out. Doesn't have to be prison showers but knifed sounds so passé nowadays
