"Hibernian Reborn" better not mean hoops, it's like they want us to get our c***s kicked in at Ibrox.
Imagine the seethe if we brought out a hooped top.
Would be worth it imo.

Unforgivable negligence from the council up to the government. Let's hope we get a proper inquiry and not some whitewashed bullshit.
A prime example of poor people just being a fucking inconvenience for those with money and power.

Allan is a great signing tbf.
He'll no doubt be looking to impress in the hope of winning a contract at Ibrox.

She was directly talking about and presumably to voters who wanted to beat the SNP. She conceded the point that Labour aren't best placed in certain constituencies to make the point that we are in most in the central belt. This is in no way encouraging voters to vote Tory.
Why did she mention the Tories and not the Lib Dems, who previously held and were 2nd in 2015 in many of the Highland and Border seats ?

So full quote:
“The reality is the vast majority of seats across Scotland, it’s only the Labour party that can beat the SNP.
“There are a few differences in the Borders and the Highlands where the Tories might be better placed but right across Scotland’s centre belt, where the vast majority of Scotland’s population lives, the only party that can beat the SNP is the Labour party.”
That's not advocating voting Tory at all. It's actually a completely accurate summation of Scottish politics and sounds to me like a pitch to try to convince Tory unionists in the central belt to back Labour over the SNP, not sure why they would but a completely sensible pitch for the Scottish Labour leader to make.So reading between the lines ...
If you live in x and want rid of the SNP vote Labour, but if you live in x you're better to vote Tory.

I usually drink in The Scottie or Broadfields. Been in plenty worse boozers than those two.
Scotties is a quiet pub. Occasionally get some nonsense going on in Broadfields, but it's usually just handbags.
Eta: Giovanni's is the chippy, which is one of the best in Edinburgh.

Think if you listen to what Arlene Foster is actually saying and ignore all the bizarre hysteria, it's clear they would prefer no special status for NI and a soft border with the RoI, but if there are customs checks required post-Brexit they have to be at Newry rather than Larne. I seriously doubt that they are going to blow their chance to influence something as critical as that so a few lodges and flute bands can walk down the Garvaghy Road. All you have to do is go on the Belfast Telegraph website or Slugger O'Toole to get what's happening there unfiltered by a London media outlet that doesn't fully understand the place.
'No special status for NI and a soft border with RoI' is surely unachievable with ditching the single market and freedom of movement.
NI is almost certain to require some sort of 'special status' in the Brexit deal to keep everyone reasonably happy. This of course has a knock on effect with Sturgeon, the SNP and perhaps even Davidson requesting similar for Scotland.

It's easy to say we rejected a higher offer last year, but without knowing the exact structure of the 2 deals there's no real way of comparing them.
Was the bid last year dependant on clauses like goals scored, promotion etc. ?
Is the Forest bid cash up front ?
Does JC now have a release clause in his new contract ?

Is this the sort of shit we can look forward to from the DUP and their core support over the next few months ?

Agent Scotland has said 1.4m and people are losing their shit. The guys an absolutely slaver and not ITK at all. Why would we turn down 1.8m then accept less now?
One thing you can say about our club is we get the best deals for our players.
You'd think it wouldn't be less than £1.8m, although I've no idea if that deal was straight upfront or structured. Forest's deal may be a better offer in the eyes of the board.
I totally agree with the second point. Rod ain't no fool.

If the rumoured fee is correct then that is a disgrace from the board IMO.

Couple of places down my way have had their moments in the past. The Crown and Cushion and The Jocks Lodge.
Both have been taken over and changed beyond recognition.

f**k right off. I'm devastated. It's rare to get a player with both his ability and fucking hilarious personality.
Really hope the laddie goes on to have a great career but I'm not sure Forest, more specifically Warburton, is the right choice for him.Agreed, have my doubts Warbs will be able to handle his #bantz
Back up the road to us or Ibrox in 12-18 months.

At least he'll go for a decent wedge..
This alone should put an extra £500k on the fee.

Used to go there for a midweek disco in the late 70's when Punk was all the rage. Place probably saw more fights than the actual prison. One guy ran into the bus depot across the road and grabbed a 3 foot long wrench and cracked some poor sod over the head with it. Happy days.
Aye, it's some place. Looks desolate as f**k from outside, with the field and the prison behind.
Currently building some new houses there now.

Agreed, although I've not been in since it was full of students before the college moved.

Massive fire at high rise flats in London

Don't know why folk expect the Tories to have ensured proper fire safety measures in the holding pens for poor people when they're not even prepared to do it for schools.

Apologies in advance for anyone upset at my 'politicising' of these err... political decisions.
