  1. It took a while for me to recall DPB, but I do now - Dawson Park Boy. He was more erudite (in his own mind) / flailingly long-winded (in everyone else's). This twit reminds me of the kind of aspiring controversialist who felt that Goodwillie was the subject of a "witchhunt" when he signed for Raith.
  2. Tbf, he was all dressed in green and wearing a biretta. (to those blessed* with Orc-vision) (*sorry, trigger word)
  3. Moffat is indeed ever so slightly more genteel than New Cumnock and Kilwinning, where I spent much of my childhood. I am, as you may all imagine, quite comfortable with this.
  4. Clearly Donnelly is more deserving of opprobrium on this occasion, but Joe Wright is a potential car crash every single time he plays. I genuinely can't understand what McInnes sees in him. A future Bruno's Magpies star in the making.
  5. James MacMillan. Another one of those "it's ok for us to be bigots cos we're special" c*nts. Scotland's leading contemporary composer, we didn't do a very good job of oppressing him, did we? [Tam beat me to it, but he's a particular bête noir of mine, so piss on him twice]
  6. I was knocked flat on my arse by an overexcited Labradoodle in Moffat last week. I feel this has finally confirmed my middle class status, albeit* rather late in life. * a very middle class word, I dare say
  7. This is a very interesting and enjoyable thread. I do take issue with one thing mentioned by one or two though - middle class Scottish people aren't ashamed of being middle class; middle class Weedgies and other west central belt denizens are. Aside from an unhealthy interest in Irish history, it's their most obnoxious characteristic. I lived in Edinburgh for more than three decades; no middle class person of my acquaintance was ashamed of it, and most of them were of the "parents scrimped and saved to get into the Boroughmuir catchment area" strata, rather than actual rich c*nts (as Weedgie peasants like to imagine Edinburgh folk).
  8. I know someone from one of the worst schemes in Airdrie who sent her kids to Gaelic school precisely because other kids from the worst schemes in Airdrie didn't go there. I see nothing whatsoever wrong with this and never will.
  9. Tbf, Scousers take paranoid, emotive whining to levels unknown outside of certain parts of Glasgow, so bitterly gutted works in this context.
  10. I'm not sure about that, don't recall him ever mentioning them, bit too twee for his taste I would have thought. I think the Pastels are great though! And will stake my P&B reputation, such as it is, on that. Likewise, I have been critical of Robertson in recent years, but felt he has been better in the last couple of games. I have no interest in what LOLerpool fans, domestic or overseas, think (using the term loosely) about him though.
  11. Thick Orcs gonna thick Orc, as today's young people may or may not put it. A professional journalist in a formerly respectable broadsheet newspaper coming out with a similar level of f**kery is worse for me.
  12. I simply never believed that McKenna supported independence, given that he was still spewing out the "poor wee Catholics will be oppressed by evil Proddy Nats in IScotland" Herald party line as late as 2012.
  13. Indeed. But if anyone else points out this exceptionalism, they're sectarian bigots.
  14. They're probably terrified that they're playing Borussia Dortmund rather than St Johnstone.
  15. I'm another who finds Kickback not to my taste. Most folk are fine, but the loud, angry, whiny, boring minority are very loud, angry, whiny and boring. Those who call our own players c*nts are the worst. I can't abide all this "one of our own" cliched pish, but there's an element of Killie fans who single out local boys for their ire. It's Rory McKenzie and Innes Cameron these days, but there were others in the past. I have no idea if it's some townie scheme mentality (I never lived in Killie itself, thankfully), or it's arse cheek-lite delusion that we should somehow be buying better players instead of bringing youngsters through; but it makes for depressing reading.
