  1. And for whatever reason there's always more than one that doesn't seem to be able to spell whisky correctly. I admit fully that it's a total fixation of mine which grinds my gears when I see whisky spelt wrongly. Apologies to all if that causes offence. It's just the way I am
  2. I beg to differ.... " the word Scotch is now only applied to specific products, mostly food or drink, such as Scotch whisky, Scotch pie and Scotch broth.
  3. Pedant time .... it's a bottle of Scotch Whisky, not Irish (or anywhere else) whiskey
  4. You and me both. I've been told that they are still waiting on special packaging to be delivered which has to be used for posting and delivery by Royal Mail. Two months ago now since it was purchased along with payment for postage.
  5. There will be someone no doubt who will be in contact with him to ascertain if the rumours are true or not. Depending on his reply they'll pursue it further, or not, as the case may be. It's the way how journalists work. Maybe I shouldn't have typed this as it will just encourage the very thing I was pointing out! No comment from now on, from me!
  6. Meanwhile, as all this gets aired, don't folk realise that they are drip feeding the MSM who are constantly trawling sites like this, along with all other social media, official or unofficial, to pick up on rumours and snippets of "inside information" which they'll pursue until it's either dropped for false facts or it is proven factually correct and reported on, thus creating more unrest in the club.
  7. All these rumours just remind me of good old Andy Stewart, from back in the day, and his poem called The Rumour. You'll find it on YouTube if anybody's sufficiently interested.
  8. That's just rubbing it in a bit too much There's no need for cruelty. They're suffering enough as things stand.

  10. At least his folks refrained from naming him John. But we know he can be at times Seriously though, well done on another fine result in Fife. Your revival is definitely underway.
  11. They are a joint Welsh and English team, incorporating the border towns of Llansantffraid in Wales and Oswestry in England, and are the most successful club in the Welsh league structure, with 15 league titles to their name. Since the 2001–02 season, they have finished as champions or runners-up in every season, apart from 2008–09, when they finished third.
  12. Oh dear! Heid gone or strong alcohol partaken. We are currently not doing too well, admittedly, but that is way OTT. I'd maybe agree with you if we don't win another match by the end of the season but as things stand we have enough in the tank to be at the very least in the playoffs. Where I do agree is that the 3 year contract extension should have been left until the end of the season to see where we were in terms of progress. Perhaps just a tad hasty?
  13. I hope our guys were watching the Falkirk v TNS semi (or will be) because the TNS gave a display of how to defend when it was really needed. No messing about. Just get tight on the attacker and get a tackle in, then get the ball away from the danger area either with an accurate pass or a blooter up the pitch. Simple stuff if done correctly.
  14. Absolutely! The floor is all yours. Just don't get too excited about owning us ...yet! We can still dream about winning the last fixture of this season. Will it happen? The dream will. But the actuality? Naw! All the best for the final.
  15. You've summed it up as succinctly but I wouldn't use the term "average team". Try something like "awful" or "embarrassment of a team". Much more accurate.
  16. Congratulations to Airdrie for managing the game well and never was the result in doubt . Actually you should have put in 3 or 4 against us. Pity you didn't to really emphasise the malaise surrounding Ian Murray and his tactics and team selection. And we gave him a three year contract extension to oversee this nonsense.
  17. Once again, awful if not worse. We are totally gone until Stanton returns. Two weeks to go now until we get gubbed at home to United. Depressing stuff.
  18. All present and correct other than Sam Stanton and that's when it's gone to hell in a handcart.
  19. So so frustrating. Just showing the world how awful we have become in a very short time and how all the last minute winners earlier in the season were papering over a huge crack.
  20. There's going to be a fair amount of added time if they take in to consideration all the times Airdrie have broken up play with players going down or subbed.
  21. One man doesn't make a team but Sam Stanton definitely makes this one. We are clueless without him.
  22. I'm trying to still be positive given how well we were doing up to Christmas or thereabouts but there is just nothing so far in this performance tonight to show that we have turned a corner.
  23. Did we have any effort on target in the first? I can't think of one but maybe missed one.
  24. What has Turner brought to this squad? Diddly squat as far as I can see.
