FFS, the boy just pulled a glass photoframe off the TV stand and broke it... tsk!
You have a young kid and still have ornaments etc. on show? I admire your bravery - we're only starting to put the decent stuff back out and our youngest is 4 in June

Watching Men Behaving Badly from 1996.
Someone buys a pint of lager, and it costs: 96p.
NINETY SIX PENCE!
How the bloody farting gypsy is it costing three times as much, in just 14 years? And that's London prices, too.
That sounds too cheap to me. I'm pretty certain pints were about £1.50 back then. The cheapest I can remember paying is 91p which was in Glasgow Tech Student's Union (now Caledonian Uni) in 1990.
f**k! I'm getting old

Is Swampy still banned?
I'm sure he posted again on Monday or Tuesday. Of course, he might well have copped another ban thereafter.

In case you're thinking of laughing, parents are often put on the spot like this and have to make shit up regularly. It's 'Do as I say and not as I do' in Parent Town, mostly.

What he said

Omg you have got so up yourself in the last few days. You really should just take your own advice and fuck off
You've got a point there. However, as he was the catalyst in giving us a break from xbl for a week, I think we should cut him some slack

i went to see about a used car from a dealer in fife tonight. car is fine, test drive was fine and a few scratches here and there but nothing major. advertised for 3500 and in mind i was happy to pay 3k, so i started the chat at 2500. he just stood up and said ''nah mate that's an insult, this isn't the car for you. time to go''.
here's the car: http://www.z-carsales.co.uk/used_car_vauxh...tchback_169.htm
was i totally wrong? might phone him back tomorrow saying i don't want to haggle and 3k is fine. thoughts?
I assume you're quite young and he's basically treating you with contempt as he reckons you're not serious. If it was me, I'd take my money elsewhere - there's no shortage of dealers and most of them are desparate for sales at the moment.

If giving Sons a disadvantage puts us as high up the league as they are, bring it on!
Would you give up your Championship win for it?

Not quite true. I did warn Danny L shortly before he went on holiday that even though we had failed by a penalty against Stenny, Cowden would be promoted by default. We also had regular conversations on the theme right up to the LMC decision. In turn Danny was confident that his team were fully capable of doing very well in the Second Division - re-inforced after our first (cup) game against Peterheid when we were very clearly the better team. However I am happy to attribute blame where it is due
I take it you budgeted for 2nd Division football then when bringing in players/renewing contracts over the summer? What about scouting opponents - did Danny and his team look at only potential Second Division opponents?
If the answer is yes to both questions, then I have to say they were pretty brave decisions given the number of twists the Livi saga took over the summer, but it's great to see your team reaping the benefit from them. Livi's eventual demotion really never appeared quite as 'cut and dried' to me (a mere supporter) as you infer in your post..

I take it this is going to be another afternoon of one line posts from you along the lines of "I can't take this anymore", followed by another post ninety seconds later, agreeing with yourself.
Ivo, I take it that was aimed at Little Miss Vacuous rather than me?

Ah! Silly me! You didn't win promotion!
No they didn't win promotion. Instead, they were left at an absolute disadvantage having to play in the Second Division having prepared for life in the Third. I wonder who they should blame for that?

I wanted PLL to feel appreciated
and unthreatened.
... aye and acting like a creepy b*****d on an internet forum will achieve that, right enough.

Couples where the girl drives and the guy doesn't. It just seems odd to me.
It just ain't what wimmens are for!
It might be odd but it's bloody brilliant. Marrying a teetotaller was the best move I ever made... and she can do things other than drive too
0 -
Yes, I do agree with that.
Excellent, perhaps you're not as vacuous as I first thought.

I don't know for sure that the pensioners are going without just because of Livi.
No? O.K let's look at it in more general terms.
Would you accept that Local Authorities only have a finite overall budget and therefore can't meet all demands placed upon them?
If you do accept that point, would you also agree that within the confines of such a budget, helping one organisation means some other group has to lose out as their demand cannot be met?
0 -
Thanks for helping my club.
Will you be thanking the pensioners as well?
0 -
True.
So you now agree that greed, or at the very least self interest, is the reason this week's fixture went ahead whilst last week's was scratched?
0 -
Okay I have accepted the fact that we will be guilty until proved innocent. But the game is not on for greed they were intending on scratching it but as the supporters (including myself) were outraged, & not for letting it go, they decided to play it.
You were outraged last week too but they ignored you. Of course, that was someone elses home fixture wasn't it?

Perhaps Rankine has Donny's arse for toast.
As yesterday wasn't a meeting of the Management Committee, Rovers would have been represented by Frank Meade.

Dundee.
East Stirlingshire.
Elgin.
Clyde.
Dunfermline.
Ayr Utd.
Brechin city.
Forfar.
Queens park.
Albion Rovers.
You're making that last one up, and probably most of the rest as well.

For the love of God!!!!!
I told you I can't remember where it was, you lot are like a dug with a bone!!!
& for the record the high horse mentality is getting very wearing now too.
Shit, I've been caught out! Deflect Deflect!

Question for Livi fans - would you rather piss off everyone in Scottish football but eventually stay in 1st Division with a 15 or 20 point penalty leading to almost certain relegation to Div 2, or accept your relegation with as much good grace as you can now muster then romp through the 3rd Division this season? Either way you're in Div 2 next season, but one way with low morale and enemies everywhere and the other way with a winning team and a good name in the Scottish game. Discuss.
I'd question the part in bold. Football fans, as well as those officially involved in the game, have very long memories.

It's like Pandas or Siberian Tigers. There are only around 300 Rovers supporters living in the wild due to loss of habitat, please give generously.
That would be funny but for the fact it's true

I can't remember who but someone said the attendance was over 600 & stressed there was only 100 Livi fans which therefore = 500 Albion Rovers fans in their mind. Perhaps they were at it to stick the boot in? nah! who would do that to Livi fans!
Was it on here, Livi Lions, or elsewhere?
I certainly don't remember such a post, and on re-checking the match threads on both this site and Livi Lions I can't find any post stating that there was 100 Livi fans and by extension 500 Rovers fans. The only post that come close on here is this one by the owner of the Rovers' site but it makes no mention of numbers. He also made a pretty much identical post on Livi Lions. There's also a claim of 300 Rovers supporters made by another of our number later in the same Livi Lions thread.
By the way, the victim mentality is getting a bit wearing now as well.

Taking their account as gospel they claimed to have 500 fans that day, back to school for the chap who was counting I think.
Who claimed that?
Our average gate last season was in the low 300s, so there's no way there would have been 500 Rovers fans there. I reckon we're down to 200 - 250 home regulars and 20 - 50 away nowadays depending on the fixture.

Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...

I was looking for you yesterday morning, but I suspect having flown back in at 07:30 I was just that wee bit too early. I assume you must get quite a few folk coming up to you saying "are you Kilt fae P & B?"
