Michael W Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 I don't drive. Unlike some... No trains? You two better bring notes to explain your absence and hand them in at the club office next home game or I'm telling John McGlynn on ye's. Dear Mr McGlynn, I'd like to offer you my sincere apologies for my absence at the recent fixture with Queens Park. As you may, or may not be aware, I have recently had to deal with a particularly challenging, yet boring piece of coursework for uni. As a result, me and my friends arranged a night out, where I made the disgusting error of forgetting to check the fixture list before confirming my attendance. As a result of not wanting to let the team (no pun intended) down, I have no choice but to go and get utterly pished. Apologies, and I hope to drink to a Raith victory when my brother texts me the score. Yours apologetically, Michael W P.S If Raith lose and I'm found KO'd in a gutter, I'm holding you and Raith Rovers FC personally responsible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzreid Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 No trains? Half past the hour, so I can't get the half 6. The half 7 helps me miss the first half and I'm not dedicated enough to spend £26 on trip and entrance for 45 minutes. Sorry guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centralparker Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 People who can't do extremely basic mental arithmetic. Just had to deal with someone who had no idea what 4x8 was. Bring back learning the tables parrot fashion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same for me with mid-week home Berwick games. I can get down in time for kick-off but I'd have to leave at half time to get the last train back to Paisley. Either that or watch the whole game and sleep overnight on a bench in Waverley Station! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually I finish at half five, get the half 6 and stroll to the game. Not tonight though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzreid Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Raith Rovers Football Club scored in the 24th minute of last night's game and couldn't kill it off. So, rather than quietly enjoy a nice leisurely drink whilst watching the Arsenal game I ended up prowling the house treating my nice beer like it was Fosters and not savouring it and generally apperaring to be an alcoholic ape. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One positive is that you didn't have to watch the 2nd half of the game live. Last time I was as uncomfortable as that was when I shat myself in primary 3. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Now if only Arbroath let you go a goal up you can bring on defenders and see the game out......or can you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xbl Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Friends who don't seem to find the thought of an 85 mile trip to watch a second division football match appealing. How can you not look forward to Arbroath vs Raith?? How? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Sionnach Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Rude staff! I've never been to the Greggs shop in the airport before so I walk in and ask for a bacon roll with brown sauce. 'We only do baguettes' she snaps. Okay, can I have a bacon baguette with brown sauce please. 'They're over there, get it yersel' Ignorant wee spotty nyaff! If that's customer service I'm no going back. Contrast that with Nero's: Can I have a cup of tea to take out please? Sure mate, with milk? Aye, please Sugar? No thanks Thats £1.17 please mate. Just started your shift? Aye, I've been in for about 15 minutes. Oh well, have a good day buddy, see ya later It may seem petty but good manners cost nothing and bad manners lose you customers. I shall be at the Drum and Monkey for my next bacon roll! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Bacon Baguettes.Whatever next. Tell me about it brother. If I'd gone to Campsie Snacks it would have been the traditional breakfast roll with greasy bacon and as much brown sauce as you can squeeze from the plastic bottle. But with a captive market, Greggs have gone all continental and charge £2.30 for a crispy baguette and three slices of bacon with one of those plastic sachets of sauce.* *Incidentally, when I tore it open it sort of exploded and I got a dollop of brown sauce on my keyboard! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
