  1. Am I right in saying we have won more points away from home this season than at home? *sounds the SO8 stat horn*
  2. What is it with Stranraer? Do they just want to be us?
  3. I just thought that was because they were cheating b*****ds! Thanks for clearing that up though [emoji106]
  4. On the train this morning........decided not to announce it in advance so as not to ruin all your days before they started. All going well so far, train on time and got a seat! Scotrail have excelled themselves today! Cue signal failure and a complete cancellation of all services........
  5. Wouldn't ever buy from Arnold Clark ever again. A mate of mine just bought a new car for him and his missus. After getting it home he could hear a rattling noise. Took it to the garage next to his work and got them to look over it. Apparently it was clear it had been in an accident and hadn't been repaired properly! Needless to say it was taken back and a refund was forthcoming! Absolute joke! If that had been a less clued up person their life could have been at risk. Bunch of c***s the lot of them. Iv had previous poor experiences and would never go back to them
  6. Well I was right. 1st train delayed this morning by 15or so mins, by time it reached my station it was a good half hour late, missed my connection, next one was cancelled, got the next one which was squashed in like sardines, people left on the platform cause it was too full. Got to enjoy the journey home now and the joys that will bring! f**k you scotrail! It seriously can't be that hard to run a train service!
  7. Just to let you know guys. I am getting the train this morning so be prepared for all kinds of delays and cancellations on the excellent scotrail network!
  8. As one of stevies critics I'm glad things have turned around on the pitch. Also pretty happy with the January signings so far, however without being the one to put a dampener on things as I am looking forward to the 2nd half of the season......... The players we have brought in are replacing ones that have gone so the squad isn't getting any bigger which has been a problem so far (ok the ones coming in will probably come off the bench and not just sit there to make up numbers) and when you have a high turnover of players it tends to take a while for them all to gel. See our starts to the season for the past few years for evidence of this. I would highly doubt another 4 bodies will leave before the end of January
  9. Any word on the new stadium? According to iPhone maps we live with a boghead stadium in the town, maybe we are going back in time [emoji23]
  10. The joe Thomson thing is a weird one but not overly concerning in my opinion. He's been good for us but not a world beater, could be replaced by another youngster in a similar position. I don't really understand celtics stance on this though. They have an abundance of midfielders and I don't think joe will feature in their 1st team any time soon. Liam Henderson was excellent for Hibs and can't get into the side, they have numerous other guys all probably ahead of him, if they thought that highly of him he would not be on loan at all and would be getting game time. No doubt he will go back on loan next season to a premiership club then get released at end of the season, Stuart Findlay-esque
  11. Merry Christmas to all fellow sons fans when it comes [emoji106]
  12. That's a great result yesterday and the table looks a bit better for us now. However my worry is that it's Dumbarton under Aitken at its best. We all get fed up, barrage him with criticism and all of a sudden we get a result out the blue! It's a never ending cycle, we will probably lose to Ayr and the doom and gloom will be back for another 6 weeks until we pull another random result out the hat. Delighted with the 3 points though [emoji2]
  13. I don't use trains that often tbh but recently when I have, every single time they have been delayed. Few weeks ago I had a 4 day course in Glasgow so decided to take the train to avoid parking etc. 1st 3 days the train was delayed by over 20minutes, on the 3rd day I was stuck in a tunnel for over half an hour with no phone reception to let my course know I would be late! After waltzing in for 3 days apologising for my clear disregard for timekeeping I took the car on the 4th day and paid £21 to park for the privilege ! f**k you scotrail. Then yesterday I was heading to the snooker at the emirates. Jump on the train to meet my mate in Glasgow, guess what it's delayed! I was needing to change trains at partick meaning my delay meant I missed my planned connection. Got on a later connection to be delayed again just short of central low level (yep again in a dark tunnel with no phone reception). Another planned journey put back over 45minutes! Good job scotrail! I'll just walk in the future! Will be quicker! Muppets
  14. He's been very quiet since the weekend. Do you think he only gets out at weekends when the nurses aren't looking?
  15. Magnificent pictures, boghead was a beautiful football arena. May have been a dump but it was our dump!
  16. I don't think anyone on here has disrespected Aitken. Yes we have came out and stated our wishes for a change but it's not happened. We have 6months of the season left. It's time to see if the players can react to tuesdays result starting with Saturday against Hibs! I dont think even if he keeps us up he will stay on. Hopefully the signings, if any, made in January will be specialised players and not utility ones which seemed to be the plan at the start of the season which clearly hasn't worked.
  17. Looks like January could be massive for us. The squad undoubtably needs a refresh. If we can get shot of brown, Stevo, pettigrew and use that cash for 3/4 players who may make a difference then all may not be doomed. Only issue is we may be battling st Mirren, Dunfermline and Ayr for the same players! Do we have any loan spaces left? Also, on the subject of bringing back Nade. He prob won't come cheap. I love the guy for what he done for us last year but is he past it? His injury record isn't exactly great. But on saying that, we enjoy lumping balls up front, no one can get the ball from the big man!
  18. Sad as it may be to most/all of us realistically we always knew this was going to be the outcome. Would the penny pinching board really try to pay off a guy that has only 6months remaining on his contract. Taking the cheap easy way out as always! On the plus side, I always enjoyed a trip to east fife and Stranraer.........
  19. Fair enough and it's an opinion. As I said I don't have twitter or Facebook so not seen what his account contains. If it is purely personal then fair enough, maybe leave it out. However surely then he can make it private or whatever then the masses of irritated fans can't get to him on there! I do not agree with fans asking for his head or sending him abuse on social media. I was merely saying that civilised questions etc weren't out of order. If Stevie does the honourable thing and resigns or happens to be sacked, then yes I will be delighted however I will also thank him for his hard work and wish him all the best for the future. Watch this space......we will probably go and beat Hibs this weekend. Would just be like us to throw a random result in the mix! I won't hold my breath tho!
  20. I have to disagree slightly here. Fans want answers and they feel that may be the way to get them. Yes it's a personal account but by having social media he's leaving himself open. Personally I don't have a twitter or Facebook etc however as long as the comments don't border on abuse then I don't see the issue. At least he may see the opinion of us fans!
  21. I blame SO8...... He did call it when he said he was writing for the Lennox tonight....... Maybe our anger is misdirected [emoji12]
  22. I'm sorry but that result is embarrassing! I stuck up for Stevie in the past when he got pelters, I have also been very critical recently but tonight has to be the point of no return. For anyone anywhere to think that is acceptable needs to have a long hard look at themselves. Stevie needs to either go or produce some sort of magic otherwise we are down. Yes we won against QOS but arguably that was because they were worse than us and couldn't finish! St Mirren even beat them tonight which makes it an even worse night for us! Step aside mr aitken, your time here is finished
  23. That is a bit shit...... I know they can do what they like with their players but I think the rule should be either they can all play or they all can't! Stuff this picking and choosing nonsense!
  24. I'm sure they would manage to manipulate it somehow
  25. Hibs at home if we beat bonnyrigg? What a meh draw! Let's do the decent thing at let the juniors go a run
