Yeah, I dropped a mate off in Hamilton and was back in Glasgow before they talked about anything other than Celtic. I'm guessing very few people vote for players, particularly subs, so a few high votes for Goss can skew the averages. Crazy for him to be top-rated, in fact all of the scores are unrealistically low.

What Are You Drinking ?
Archie McSquackle replied to keyser_soze's topic in The General Nonsense Forum
Quite partial to a Jarl myself (can't make my mind up if I gave you the like for the Jarl or the Cure reference). Anyway, red wine for me, sitting outside enjoying the warmish weather while I can. -
Motherwell v Aberdeen 11/09/21
Archie McSquackle replied to Doctor Manhattan's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
That's probably about right (but tight) for the home support but assuming you're leaving from the south stand I'd add on another 5-10 minutes. -

You're expecting the council to make a decision on Friday afternoon rather than clock off at 4pm and postpone it until Monday? -

She's a serious actress and you've not to look at her 'attributes '. -
The big deal is that if you've only subscribed to the football package and not paid more for the full sports package then you can't watch the Scotland game on the main event channel. The two football channels are showing Ireland and England under-21's.

The red button gives 9 games other than the Ireland game - the Scotland game isn't one of them.

Yeah, I've got sky football and can't watch it as it's on main event. What's the point?

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
Archie McSquackle replied to Rugster's topic in TV and Film Forum
I watched Cruella with my daughter and really enjoyed it. Much better than the run-of-the-mill Disney film I was expecting. A lot darker but not taking itself seriously. Great soundtrack as well. -
Businesses no longer accepting cash
Archie McSquackle replied to Barney Rubble's topic in The General Nonsense Forum
I know now that these takeaways don't take cash but when places opened up again after lockdown and pretty much everywhere was only taking cards I did get caught out a few times. I generally have a bit of cash but it wasn't enough to cover the cost of a takeaway for the family - no great problem and I went to a nearby cash machine. I mostly use cards nowadays but as I said, I more find it a problem when I run out of coins and fivers for tips in bars and restaurants whereas I normally have a pocketful of smash when using cash in the pub. -

Archie McSquackle replied to Barney Rubble's topic in The General Nonsense Forum
One of the things I've noticed with the move to cards and not having cash is it's often difficult to leave tips. I wonder if bar staff have noted a drop off in the tips they get. Generally the only places I've found that don't take cash are chip shops and Chinese takeaways and it's a right pain in the arse when you find out they don't. -

Safely received my bottle of Elderflower Pale Ale from@Bairnardo and drank it tonight. Lovely and smooth. Very light on the elderflower to begin with but it seemed to build as I drank more. Thanks again. -
Motherwell FC vs Dundee FC - 28/8/21
Archie McSquackle replied to Ludo*1's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
You were either at it (probably) or the level of excitement in the general Dundee support didn't match your own. You had a pretty decent support though but at 780 it was similar to what we took to the cup game although you didn't outnumber any of the three home stands. You did play the better football though but didn't come out on top. -

I still can't make my mind up whether KVV will get more goals or yellow cards but I expect both to be in double figures. If Mugabi is the answer then I really don't know what the question is. -
What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
Archie McSquackle replied to Rugster's topic in TV and Film Forum
I watched it for the first time recently with my daughter. My wife refused to watched it as she said she watched it years ago and it was rubbish so we waited until she had a night out. We both really enjoyed it, had a few good laughs and yes, someone must have been chopping onions nearby at the end. -

Had a few from my Croatian Beer 52 box from a wee while ago. The Pilsner was nice, the session ipa a bit lacking and the pale ale a bit better - pretty decent but not outstanding. -
We daughter just came down the stairs in hysterics and I had to evict this b*****d before it claimed squatter's rights.

Cutting the grass at half eight is hardly outrageous behaviour.

What's the justification in taxis being allowed to use bus lanes? Half the time they've got no passengers so it's not really about letting more people (other than taxi drivers) move quicker in the same way it is for buses.
