    Got a phonecall from the doctor there at 10 past seven, giving me the results of a sputum sample I left in this week.

    He's getting a prescription ordered for me tomorrow morning. A different antibiotic from the one I finished on Thursday, which was a different one from my usual one.

    Pretty good service, although there's a wee niggle at the back of my head, could this not have waited till Monday?

    But he's maybe the doctor on call this weekend and is just tidying up his paperwork, rather than playing GTA.

     

    After things you've been through having that wee niggle is not too surprising or unreasonable. Your medical notes possibly have a big red flag at the top to let GPs know to make you a priority. Stay well - hope the new antibiotic proves effective.

    Had we had the lad from Wigan fit it would have helped us get a bit more done up top. Time to move on to the Livi lions, you could say the WC is coming at the wrong time for us!😡

    Have you had injuries? You'd think it would have been mentioned somewhere...

    It looks like the problemis is dysentery in the camp, Granda..

    Arnold is a better story.

    If you're into underwear theft. Try Point Me at the Sky, from the days when 2005 was way way way into the SF future.  And it has Eugene on both sides in different songs - where's yer Major Toms now? 

    And if you survive till two thousand and five
    I hope you're exceedingly thin
    For if you are stout you will have to breathe out

  4. In the previous 18 pages of fun-filled banter I feel that special mention has to be made of @Sergeant Wilsons superb performance, let down only by the omission of "Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" to finish. But a special award required here.

    But let's hear it too for @AJF for his solo performance in demonstrating a greater sense of defence than his team in CL (in-)action. He rose nobly to nibble at vast offerings of bait as much as dropping the occasional acknowledgement of failings. Like The Rangers themselves others on his side were notable by their absence. Surprising that.

    , he has not been too scared to oppose the two cults.

    I’m not usually one to criticise my fellow posters’ spelling on here, but that seems a particularly obvious typo… 

    I'm sure there will be outrage in Aiberdeen over that. There may be two Culters but there's only one Cults.

    I missed out on Attlee by 13 months.

    An alternative to P&B CrowdW*nking has presented itself.  PM W*anking. But that said, yep, I was a Churchillian bairn too, just behind you. And Churchill would feature in the bottom 5.

    With Hart on the ground with a "concussion", if KVV slotted the ball that dropped to him into the goal it's a given the ref would have been surrounded and baracked, McGregor being the most vocal to cancel the goal, how outrageous of the referee to not give a "head injury" due consideration, etc. Bigger issue here is any referees watching that back know he's a fly b*****d going forward and maybe affect their decision making what should rightly be an immediate cessation of play. The fact that Hart faces no retrospective action and he avoided any criticism on Sportscene is a whole other issue.

    Head knocks are beginning to be treated seriously across sports. So, as in Hart's case if the player doesn't manage to get up quickly, the Ref should be required to have the player removed from play for the rest of the match and then subjected to a full medical review before being allowed to play in future matches. A sub would naturally be permitted. This would have the benefits of (a) protecting players health in genuine incidents and (b) bu88ering up the team strategy for the Manager in cases of fraud.

    Any player unable to get up within 30 seconds must go off for a full medical assessment. Again this is for the benefit of genuine cases and to avoid long breaks in play. And reduce the amount of time wasting by prima donnas.

    I don’t necessarily agree he was “under appreciated”

    Just a pity we didn’t see him for longer. 

     

    Just had a look at an old "Aberdeen Official All Time Greats" book. Over 60 players listed but no room for Frank therein.  But as you say he didn't have enough time at the club.

    The Crit. aka "Frank MacDougall's Sports Bar". For many years it could be found across from the station, it was last seen as a mini supermarket.
