  1. Four exits plus one entrance equals five ways. There's another five ways circle at the top of the Hilltown in Dundee itself. Dundonians are the only folk in the country allowed to call a roundabout a circle as it was a Dundonian who invented the roundabout/ circle....
  2. Anyone using the word "like" in a sentence without expressing admiration for something/ someone...
  3. Does it make you more or less attractive to the opposite sex? Or the same sex for that matter if you are that way inclined. Asking for a friend who is thinking of starting...
  4. Italian pizzas! They could be onto a winner there...
  5. Good shout re "burds". Slight point of order though as it's shite 1970's patter...

  7. On the subject of trains. Cretins that think it's acceptable to use seats for their luggage. Usually manspreading types as well...
  8. Sounds like someone's actually placed a bet on this then...
  9. Thanks for that. I drink mostly blends because they are the most affordable. I enjoy Bells and Grouse most out of the available blended Scotch whisky. My dram of choice in pubs is a single grain whisky, Cameron Brig. I don't drink whisky neat, prefer a ratio of 3/4 whisky to a quarter water...
  10. New to this thread so forgive me if it's been previously mentioned. I read somewhere that the quality of the whisky deteriorates as soon as the first dram is poured. To do with the oxygen getting in about the contents of the bottle. I mainly drink either Bells or Grouse, down to price - will have a malt in the pub occasionally. I have noticed that the first dram out the bottle is generally superb but when you get to the dregs the taste is inferior. This would tend to put me off buying the more expensive whiskies...
  11. Supposedly educated people that begin their answers to interviews with "So... " A football example, which hasn't happened yet (but it's coming) would be: "Quite a game this afternoon Gary, what are your thoughts on the second-half comeback?" Gary "So... ... ..."
  12. Has anyone mentioned the utter bellends who think it's acceptable to play their music through speakers (as opposed to headphones) on trains yet. This might not qualify as petty but it sure as fcuk annoys the hell out of me...
  13. I fully accept that users of fitba forums are entitled to their opinions and all that but to suggest that without Fash we wouldn't have won promotion is frankly ridiculous. In 45 years watching East Fife, Naysmith is up there with Dave Clarke and Steve Archibald as one of our best managers and he would be the first to admit that he is still learning his trade...

  15. Cartoon in one of the weegie rags following the Celtic v East Fife Scottish Cup final in 1927...
  16. What exactly is ridiculous about the club generating renewable energy to cut their overheads? It's surely forward thinking...
  17. As an enthusiastic programme collector I agree with the OP. Even when you get beat, there is a crumb of consolation that you have something to show from your travels. It is actually possible to issue a programme without making a loss. Our Supporters' Trust make a decent job of producing a programme. A lot of it is down to the commitment of the contributors and hard work on the part of the editor. All unpaid of course...
  18. Actually, it was probably the earlier Bayview version of the Half Time scoreboard...
  19. At Bayview they didn't even read the half-time scores out, a wee laddie got sent out with the numbers. You needed a programme to find out. Speaking to a director recently, he recalled the first time he got that job as a wee boy. Instead of putting the corresponding scores horizontally, he put them vertically. Much confusion followed...
