  1. hullo!! its been over 3 years since this thread ! Did you vote on it? did you post on it? what do you think now? any predictions come true? personally I thought by now that it would have been concluded and we'd be in a Norway type arrangement
  2. Just had a week in majorca with a hire car , the b*****d insurance was as much as the rental itself but, the other side of the coin fir me was seeing the nick of all the local cars on the island, locals definitely not car proud and aren’t bothered by a wed ding . Probably worth it in the ens
  3. thinking speed camera's are just a cheats way of making money..
  4. I love cycling my bike, partly for the exercise & weight loss, partly for the fresh air and scenery. but mostly because of how fuckin rattled it gets gammon yer da' types when they need to wait an extra 30 secs to get passed
  5. He thinks using big words and acting smug makes him look clever but he'll never see himself as others see him. I've fucked around on here for 7 year, yet I don't have a postcount in the millions. basicly there are 2 kinds of people on here, those who come on when they've nothing better to do and then those who never have anything better to do. guess which category he's in?
  6. Thank f**k someone agrees. no one outside of this hardly used thread on social media wants a highly convoluted format . f**k that. I am not overly conservative when it comes to football but I just don't like the idea of a team who has been mediocre all season ending up with 3 cup finals to win the league. or get into Europe or any other pish like that, I suspect that many who advocate such formats simply want something to hamstring the old firm. But they and they're dominance (mostly celtic these days) is a symptom and not the cause of the issues in Scottish football and its going to take either a freak event like Leicster or a bosman on steroids type ruling to change that. 2 leagues of 16. 2 up 2 down. play offs for the 3.4.5 & 14th for the final promotion / relagation place. bottom 10 sides GTF 8 groups of 4 for the league cup. no bys for euro teams. group winners only progress to QF's all teams seeded pots one to 4. seeding based on previous seasons league position. ie top 8 = pot 1 bottom = pot 2 etc. gives mid table sides something to play for come the end of season. Keep It Simple Stupid!
  7. Have to agree with , well everyone that the marketing of Scottish football has been nothing more than fucking awful, ever since the 90s when TV kicked off the best anyone could manage was " Scotland - we've got the old firm derby " . seriously that was the best anyone could come up with?
  8. Ive said nothing so far, I suppose theres always a chance this guy could be a chancer but then again how much worse can he be ? To be fair, if he manages to asset strip a club with no assets then fair play to him he’s earned it in that case ! What I’ve noticed tho is that other Scottish clubs such as ayr utd and dundee have wealthy owners but that money doesn’t get thrown at the park like it does in england. Would we end up being the same ?
  9. he's mostly right tho unfortunately. we are all here cause we're committed fans. imagine trying to sell the football we show to someone without an emotional attachment to a club playing. 22 players on the park, none of whom can trap a ball, use quick feet to beat a man , string more than 3 passes together, control a long range pass. players who never do anything sexy but always play an easy safe pass when under pressure. why not pay £20 quid to watch 0-0 with 3 shots on target as team A frustrate team B to get their precious point towards safety. choose between pre historic auld dumps or soulless concrete echo arenas. Admit it boys, we only go cause we started supporting our teams years ago when 1 . fitbaw was less shite & 2 there was less alternatives
  10. Surely no? we also finished 2nd the season after the killie play off. Perhaps he's thinking of the Dundee utd 2nd leg when we were a goal up at half time and looking fairly comfortable until it all slipped away and we invited them back into the game? Houston was a good manager but like every one says his recruitment was a bit suspect. He was coming to the end of his working life and was bad for always taking the most convenient option when searching for players
  11. when they first came out, I thought daft punk were Scottish because of the name . imagined it said in a Scottish accent
  12. Yep exactly. For the record i support independence. I think it’s very unfair that those opposed to it have the power to block a vote on it . Both here and abroad. I was referring to catalonia in my example. Nevertheless If the snp tried the the same trick here they would just end up making fools of themselves.
  13. FFs not this pish again. breakaway region - we will hold a referendum on independence. central government - we do not give permission and as such any referendum you hold is unlawful and therefor the result means nothing breakaway region - say that all you want but if the people vote for it then it will be pretty hard for you to ignore! central government - no, we make the laws and we decide if somethings legal or not. breakaway region - but if the majority of the people turn out and vote then you will look bad in front of the international community. central government - good luck with that, unless you have an overwelming cast iron backing from all the population then your buckshee referendum result will mean nothing and the international community will back us to the hilt. indy supporters - we should go and vote, show them how we feel remain suppporters - , its not a legal referendum and to go and vote will give the other side more chance of legitimacy . we should not vote at all. no percentage in favour of yes will ever stand up to scrutiny on a 48 % turn out. just ignore the noise makers
  14. Maybe so, but how can they justify charging 20 quid in the seaside leagues? how much do other league 1 clubs charge for admission? and all on the basis of " we need you to cough up or we can't afford players" very much the same idea as when the club trialled reducing prices then used the lack of a crowd uplift to justify keeping prices high for those of us who do turn p and watch dross , basically in other words " we've become hopelessly hooked on gate money , so please keep coming and paying or we're fucked" we've had home wins against rangers and hibs, the first half against celtic in 2012. the cup final and a few wins against the fifers, the 2016 season we done well and scored a lot of last minuit winners which are handy for making you forget the 92 minuits of slow laboured negative sideways passing that came before it. Other than that its been dire
  15. away you and take that attitude tae f**k! Falkirk fc are a business and not a charity. we owe them f**k all. last season they blew a fortune and got relegated. now they want to guilt trip us into paying an outrageous amount of money for football which is little better in standard than fucking amateur played in a ground with no atmosphere. Not my problem . how can they possibly think that the answer to the problem that THEY the board caused is too continue ripping off fans who have kept going out of pure loyalty. how many games in the last ten years did you actually enjoy watching? the only reason the lights are still on is because the fans have kept loyal . The board are just taking us for granted
  16. I'm not paying 20 odd quid for 3rd level football. just no. I haven't enjoyed wathing any of the last 3 seasons of utterly horrific football on display , in fact all of the last 10 years have been howling with a dozen or so decent games thrown in to keep us sane. we're already hugely over priced for shite football with a shite atmosphere and little enjoyment or progress from the club. if they think im going to keep coughing up out of loyalty then they can f**k off. deluded
  17. how do you know I wear lycra ; ) ? also I don't get the common phrase that police should be doing something better with their time than persuing motoring offences , you can kill someone quite easily by being careless or reckless in a motor vehicle, although that can it does happen on bicycle it is very rare
  18. I’ll confess to not always obeying the highway code and i freely admit to you all today that i do so mostly becuase i can get away with it, although a road user by law i still feel like I’m somewhere in limbo between pedestrian and driver and so sometimes flip between the 2 to suit myself. Sometimes on my early morning route to work (5.30 am) i go through red lights if there’s nothing coming . But thats the only time i ever do that as its generally not clever . I sometimes go up on the pavement to avoid going round roundabouts in the traffic, i go the wrong way up one way streets and other wee things that i would never dream of doing in the car . If i done it right in front of the police then they could fine me but thats pretty much it . Not getting penalty points and the subsequent hit on insurance premiums is the single biggest reason I decide to chance it ! Sorry Other than that I’m pretty sound. Some cycle paths would shake all your fillings oot and burst yer tyres , others have you giving way at every side road junction whhen the main carriageway has right of way. These are pish so i dont bother with them. But if they’re good i use them. Nobody wants to be baw deep in traffic anyway. I mostly just stick to backroads when out for fun anyway. It’s important never to take any shite from c***s in motors. Many just don’t see you as they’re equal but at the end of the day I’ve got every right to be there and if they don’t like it that’s their problem. My actions &mistakes could piss them off whilst theirs could kill me . It’s that simple so let a c**t know when he’s being a c**t! Hope that helps with anyone’s queries. Also i have a 1.6 litre diesel honda civic which is a band A for VED meaning I don’t pay any tax for my car either Get it fucking right up the lot of you!
  19. we don't beat the lesser teams much away from home tho, that's our problem, still very much stuck in a losers mentality of " a point here will do us"
  20. Does anyone here know why crabbit auld gamons almost always hate electric cars and wind turbines? your views on politics shouldn't affect your views on technology but for some reason they do ?
  21. given that we were already overpriced for the championship 10% is f**k all, needs to be more like 30% or more for 3rd teir football. or will they just brass neck it and keep ripping off the fans who have stuck by the team through all this garbage we've watched recently?
  22. League one forum for this pish.... Just fo it now and be done with it
  23. if we don't have relagation clauses in the January signings' contracts then we deserve a 9 year spell in div 1 cause we'll have learned nothing from the 2009 clusterfuck
