    Okay i understand now - Saints need to ask P&K Council for permission to accommodate more fans. Absolute joke tbh. Can only pray the council are sound and grant the full house. Given their recent showing of more love for the local football club, I have hope.

     

    Well we'll find out what "Freedom of Perth" really means anyway

    People who change their username on here. It’s bad enough that they pay £10 a month for an Internet forum, but now I have no idea who many of these posters are and thus can’t judge the content of their post as worth reading or not, and therefore quite often have to end up actually reading it to find out.

     

    I'm pretty sure its £10 a year but one of the elite could probably confirm

    Spot on. Regardless of the reasoning, what company is going to want to get involved if they think their deal will get pissed all over and they end up with negative publicity? What happens if we do get another sponsor and say Aberdeen take issue as it cuts across one of their sponsorship deals.

     

    Their issues with it get ignored as they're not one half of anything

  4. Guess who's back.. Back again...

     

    Nobody really cares who wins the actual league these days, and this competition always gives the wee teams a chance to win something, and with Dundee back in the league they will be itching to add to the trophy cabinet next to the "we played Crystal Palace" trophy they love so much. 

     

    As ever, we start with the biggest defeat of the opening weekend, which somewhat unsurprisingly was Livingstons 3-0 loss at Ibrox.

     

    They only faced the prospect of the Hot Potato once last season, and comfortably sent it packing with a 2-0 win, so this truly is uncharted territory for the Lions.

     

    They host Aberdeen on Sunday. 

     

    What a season this promises to be. 

    Week 1: Livingston (0-3 v Rangers (A))

    I would be wary of folk knocking my door to sell me something. Other than charities, nobody really does this any more, do they? If your product is any good you'll be able to market it online and it'll sell, the fact this mob are sending folk to do face to face sales in the hope that folk crumble and buy it just to get rid of them would be a red flag for me. 300mbps doesn't sound realistic to me, only really know of Virgin that can deliver those type of speeds (in my area anyway).

    300Mbps isn't going to happen, but to be honest if they can deliver 1/3rd of that then I'd be happy, as this is what I'm currently getting, just me in the house, nothing else running;

    What's putting me off is the lack of actual detail as to how they are doing this. A wee mention of government vouchers, not sure when it'll go live etc. And the website doesn't help much either.

    £25/month for a year, £45/month for the second year. So £35/month for 2 years of 300Mb/s fibre seems quite reasonable? There's just something in me that is hesitant and wants to stick with the companies I've actually heard of

    They have a website - must be legit

    Perfect, I'll send them my bank details now

    I know reviews aren't reliable because you don't bother leaving one if everything's fine, but it doesn't look great.

    Yeah that's what's concerning me, apparently in another part of town there's a different company rolling out fibre to premises. 

     

    I just want internet that lets me watch netflix while I'm supposed to be working

  7. Has anyone heard of/used Go Fibre? 

     

    Had a guy at the door offering up to 300Mb/s download for £24.99 a month, for a year (after that I think its something like £44.99/month). 

     

    Thing is I've never heard of them, but I'm currently getting about 15Mb/s max from Sky, so it's tempting to see what they offer. Unless of course they're a bunch of cowboys, which given they have gone door to door, they probably are.

    Folk who love to describe their own personalities and think of themselves as being a bit of a character are insufferable in general- ''and you know what i'm like!'' etc - but aye, saying someone ''doesn't suffer fools gladly'' ''calls a spade a spade'' ''tells it like it is'' or is even just outspoken is usually just another way of saying they're a bit of a w****r. 

     

    what the f**k else are they going to call it?

    To be fair, I'm really bad at this. I rarely use sat nav but my special awareness must be fucking dreadful as it genuinely takes me 10 times visiting a place before i get to know it. As well as this i can easily get lost when I've just come into a new area, not knowing how to get back out.

    I know folk who can learn shit like this first time so it's definitely a particular type of intelligence (one that me and your missuses don't have).

     

    As opposed to your regular awareness?

     

    Spatial awareness ffs

    Do United take the Potato to Pittodrie at the start of August or is there a new one for 21/22?

    A new one every season.

    Do we have a league table of previous winners?

    Nothing to hand. I remember Ross County won it last year, I can have a look into it at some point though. 

     

    Someone ( @craigkillie ?) was looking into an all time Scottish Football Hot Potato. 

  11. Clark

    Rooney Kerr Gordon McCart Booth

    McCann Bryson

    Wotherspoon Kane Middleton

     

    5 of the Scottish Cup winning XI learned the game whilst out on loan from St Johnstone. McCart had previously been on loan from Celtic, Booth was loaned out several times from Hibs to gain experience. Middleton was on loan. 

     

    Why the f**k do we need colt teams in the league when we have a system that works well if you use it?

    ANSWER ME THIS

    Why is it if Celtic or Rangers or a big English side sent a youth team to play your first team in a friendly or testimonial you would not be worked up but when a big side sends a colt team in a competitive game it suddenly becomes a great sin of evil? 

     

    Friendlies are friendlies, play whoever the f**k you want. Colts in leagues they don't belong, with no promotion or relegation, utterly devalues said competition.

    It is utter nonsense to claim playing a colt team, is showing disrespect to the part time sides. 

    It is a sign of respect, it is about saying we rate your part time team so highly we want our young players to develop against them. We think it would help our players. 

    How is that showing disrespect? 

     

    How about 'We rate your part time team so highly we will continue to send our promising youngsters on loan to you"? No?

    I support colt sides in the lower leagues. It is about helping the national side. 

    It fucking isn't and you know it.
