Looked a punch from where I was

Folk who ask you to ask somebody a question then when you give them the answer go and do what they wanted to in the first place even though that's the opposite of the answer you gave. If you aren't interested in the answer, don't ask the question in the first place!

Our street's cardboard/paper recycling bins get emptied on Friday. The protocol is to put them out before 6am on the day of collection but most people put them out late the night before. Stupid neighbours have put their bin out 24 hours before it needs to be. In strong winds.

This match is dreadful, even the punters are bored!

You must have been there around the same time as me. Room was roasting and Hendo's sitting there with a woolly hat on his head . Each of the players took time to speak to the kids and seemed a really friendly bunch. My son was delighted to meet "the one who scored the banger"

That song was being sung last season as well so that's not a good barometer to measure anything by. Feet on ground, one game at a time and see where we are come May

I can't stop watching this waiting for something to ignite it but it's just been really poor. Has anybody asked Derek Adams for his opinion on this game?

What did Docherty say? I heard Adams rant live on radio at the time. Very much a manager hurting at getting beat by a last minute goal. But that happens every weekend all over the world without the mad heads gone he showed. He came across as somebody who regrets coming back to scottish football and wants a return to England. Will be interesting to see Ross County's next few results and performances and whether he's already lost the dressing room. Any player thinking of joining Ross County in January will be questioning if he's a manager they want to work for. Forgot to say he has always been a fanny, some things have never changed

You're right, I'm just being old and crabbit

I'm back to finding stupid petty things really annoying me. I've had a rant in the C**ts on the road and Infuriating Things Your Partner Does threads about stuff that really is petty and not worth getting myself into a state about but I can't help overthinking stuff. I've got plenty work to be getting on with but no motivation to get it done. I'm good at looking busy but if my boss was to ask me what I've done in a productive sense this week my answer would be the square root of hee haw. Sometimes I think its the time of year that makes me feel like this but I've got a good job that pays well and I enjoy when I've got the motivation, a supportive partner and an amazing wee boy. I just can't stop feeling empty and fed up

Of course. She's also got my parents birthdays in even though we don't really see or hear from them much other than Xmas, birthdays, Easter etc.

I bought us a 2024 calendar last week that also has the final 4 months of 2023 on one page. Scrolling through the calendar and I see she's filled in all family birthdays, medical appointments, holidays etc for 2024. Whose birthday isn't on the calendar even though it's a mere 4 days after hers? It's a petty point but could you imagine if a man was to forget a woman's birthday

just so happen to be a nosy bugger looking out my bedroom window at the time with my phone in hand

Evri drivers. Stopped on a corner on the wrong side of the road at a point where the pavement drops just so it was easier. She then got back in the car and turned right into the street anyway!

Got home from work earlier and discovered I left my phone charger at work which is now closed until 8am tomorrow. I've got 10% battery to last me 14 hours though that might not be a bad thing. My own stupidity is my PTTGOMN

Any idea of the fixtures? I can't make it to Hamilton but would still like to take my son to a nearby game if there is one

For me MacIver should just turn and hit it though I thought at the time the ball had got stuck under his feet. If he'd taken any longer to go down we'd have been at half time! I've said in the match thread that I didn't think it was a dive but I also didn't think it was a penalty. I thought at the time that Miller was offside and the highlights seemed to confirm it. Totally agree with your points about keeping the ball alive at the first and a great cross and header for the second, I suspect that's something that's worked on in training

Yes the ref was bad yesterday but you're really coming across as Old Firm levels of paranoia with that, no wonder fans of other clubs laugh at us

Why shouldn't they have a Xmas night out and why shouldn't they have a drink?

Made hard work of that today but that's down to Kelty not letting us play with the same freedom we did at their place. Delighted to get the 3 points, and get the 2 points back on Hamilton immediately. Thought Morrison and MacIver were our weakest players and was looking for MacIver to be subbed for Agyeman before he scored. Onto the ref! I don't usually comment on a refs performance having been one myself years ago albeit at a much lower level but that performance today absolutely stank of it being all about him. He refereed his first Premiership match last weekend and he had an arrogance about him today that said he thought he was now above refereeing at L1 level. For what it's worth I didn't think MacIver dived but I also didn't think it was a penalty. Ethan Ross' yellow was a shocker of a decision

Scotia or Cheerz though I think it's cash only in Cheerz as well.

At 35 years old and his injury history, he's never going to be 'rejuvenated'. Edit - now listened to McGlynn's pre match interview and it sounds as if he's done, would imagine this will be his final season

Don't use the stadium car park, there's plenty parking in surrounding streets and West Mains Industrial Estate. You might be able to park in the new college car park

Totally with you on this and have a story from many years ago that still angers me. My name is Graeme. It has two spellings I know of, my way or "the English" way. Imagine my horror when despite my initial email to a colleague having my name spelt properly in my signature and at the "To" field in my colleagues reply, she managed to spell my name in the body of the text as "Grime". That was the best part of 20 years ago and still angers me even though I've long since left that employment. Also last year I emailed another department mailbox for assistance in transferring stuff from their department to mine. The person who opened the email then intending to forward to their manager for help instead pressed reply and sent it to me saying "any idea what this dude is talking about?" Is it too much for folk to just keep their wits about them and check what they're doing first?!

I was at the stadium between 5 and 6 for my son's Goalkeeper coaching and there was an u16 or 18 friendly on. Pitch seemed to be holding up well, main issue seemed to be ice forming in the North East area of the car park
