alta-pete Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I think (but cannot confirm) that there must be some sort of business case for the royalties radio stations pay for playing particular songs depending on the perceived listenership. Central FM - as they’ve been fingered (insert Kenneth here) - do some amazingly obscure bangers from the 70s/80s on the weekend evenings. It, in my mind, can only be because these tunes cost pennies compared to them having to pay for playing contemporary stuff when they know the audience is much reduced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Steele Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Went along to Station Park to collect my ticket for the Cup game against Hibs. Looks like I've been sold a ticket for a tourney for the Scottish Gas lads instead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on the train with the boy a few days back; a huge gang of neds poured on at Grahamston and started acting the c**t across multiple carriages. He shot me a concerned glance, so I said, "don't worry, they'll be getting off at Camelon".

The big Scottish Gas v Scottish Water derby would be explosive.

Popular Post johnnydun Posted January 6 Popular Post Share Posted January 6 Post Number 15,000 for me, in my 10th year being part of the site. 15,000 posts ago, I bumped into this site and was reading the Dundee thread, (probably looking for transfer rumours or some shite), there was some funny chit chat about Giovanni Di Stefano and @Bigmouth Strikes Again posted this picture of GDS.. I loved the humour, inter club bantz and the regular updates of club info and rumour. I had to sign up, I was hooked. In my personal life at the time, I had just transitioned from getting pissed and falling asleep in my own vomit regularly, surrounded by folk that were not good for my mental health, to being a responsible adult. I needed a new way of discussion on the things I enjoyed, mainly the football. P&B was the answer. I then started posting elsewhere on the message board, GN, Politics, Travel... I found it (and still do) a great place for all sorts of advice, ideas, links to games etc... Some of the hilarious content on here is really 2nd to none, the place really could bring laughter in the lowest most inappropriate times. I even started watching the NFL thanks to this site. Some threads though, are so important, and it gives me and so many others a supportive lift from time to time, yeah I'm looking at you 'Depression Thread'. I have met a couple of good guys from here, G_Man/Robin.Hood and the hilarious @Melanius Mullarkay, and would really like in the future, (probably once everyone has a bit more cash) to meet up with some fellow Dee brethren at a Dundee game in hospitality or some shit. NGL, I have been close to leaving the site recently for a few reasons, mainly because of my hectic life schedule, but when you're chilling out at night in bed, why pick up a book (like I read fuckin' books) when you can read this nonsense? Since I started this site... I have became a Grandfather, (I'm only 42 ffs) Had a near death moment, (E-Coli) Stopped smoking, (Still vape mind you) Moved home 4 times, (Ending up in the greatest city) Had 9 (yes 9) cars, (and a caravan) Went through 6 jobs, Started my first Degree. Thanks to @Div and the mods for keeping the site running, and thanks to all the contributers for making it what it is. (Birthday Caird Pish) Anyway, here's to the next 15,000 posts filled with absolute shite. 39 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
