spirit of 77

on a serious note, we should try and be good neighbours. I'm sure the club will listen to their concerns. The only thing sure to get them even angrier will be to listen, smile and try to ameliorate their concerns. On the other hand, have the "activists" actually approached the club? I cant believe they wouldnt get a sympathetic hearing. The list looks like an extract from the daily mail book on how to be outraged at absolutely everything. Write down 2 genuine concerns then flesh your list out with another 20 that "could" happen. On the plus side, perhaps we'll be treated to the delightful company of "jogging susan" on here once more I'm dying to find out what constitutes "industrial use of playing fields"

A journeyman of the highest order would be someone who has learend his craft and surpasses all others in the trade, therefor would be a great signing Unfortunately BB is a tit.

forever delayed-manics working on a dream-springsteen face the music remaster-ELO (excellent instrumental of "waterfall" and a wonderful stripped down mix of "evil woman on there) innervisions-stevie wonder ballads & blues-garry moore will also be listening to springsteens river and a boz scaggs retrospective this weekend

W's statement does that sentiment appear? i admire your faith in Gus, even if I think it is misplaced, however creating statements on behalf of others and then arguing with them is really clutching at straws.

It's the iodine from the air, needs a bit of water or a lot of ice in my opinion but they hit the spot nicely when your in the mood.

1. Glenlivet XXV, I drank a bottle on a works jaunt with 2 colleagues last year. The colleagues are no longer here but the warm glow and roasted spice aroma of the GL stay with me still 2. Any other glenlivet, bar the 12 YO 3. Laphroaig 4. Glenmorangie 5. Macallan

Not really, we hired a property consultant to manage the sale process. Cant remember their name but they were the same people who managed the building my last employer was based in

That statement should have been along the lines of "we have made an offer to the player and await his reply" not announcing that deal had been agreed. Surely someone at the club should have been canny enough to play it cool until a deal had been inked (especially when you are dealing with the likes of McKay). Someone got carried away and now SMFC has egg all over their face, manipulated by a spiv. A statement saying that no deal had been concluded and several formalities were still pending would have made it look like we were in control of the situation. With Steven Smith, Kerkar, carl finnigan and others in our recent past we look like a team that dont know how to deal in the market.

Almost as alrming is the state of the squad memebrs standing behind him, what a crew?

so, what do you do?

Viceroy in Dunfermline just incredible and generously portioned Kushi in Edinburgh or Dunfermline-not as piquant as the Viceroy but beautifully cooked meats and they are BYOB Also O' Indiana in Carvoeiro, Portugal. 3 courses for two was about £15 with a bottle of Mateus Rose Tried the Verandah near Haymarket a year ago as it's reputation is masive and it was overpriced swill

where do you start I loved the silver thread for the live music & chat though it could be very rough Same could be said for the Abercorn bar or lounge where they had 2 barmen who were around 4' 11" tall, most nights some punter would lean over the bar, peer down at the midget potmen and declare "I see we're short staffed again". The new bar, in Nessie's day, was a second home to me and the lads only a short stagger from valentino's The Tudor for pre-post match swally and those legendary rolls with steamed sausage in the onion gravy, which had to be carefully hadled or the combinbation of melted butter and gravy rolled down your wrist and up your sleeve. In the 80s I liked Jack daniels/Bubbles lounge These days it's the tile for the post-match analysis and SFS' Guiness balancing act, but the quality of a pint is variable to say the least

I saw Fogerty play in Texas a few months ago, he was bowfin.

The Draymin, Rise up and Dont fade away. http://www.myspace.com/thedraymin Playing Loch lomond and the Wickerman amongst others shortly

I read 2 weeks ago that they are struggling as well. Are we returning to the days of the ubiquitous parties held by rotation in peoples houses I wonder?

TBH I dunno

Davie Colhoun played guitar and Mandolin in Findo Gask, fat Bert was the bassist.

Sure can, they went under a variety of names and played in many venues across the UK. FG were pretty muchguaranteed to fill any of the regular small venues in the west of scotland and beyond They were going places until they signed for a Glasgow management agency and were asigned a certain Dougie Donnelly as manager, DD stank as a manager and they fell to pieces soon after. They got an EMI record deal as a battle of the bands prize and had a single out in Holland which didnt do too well, it got airplay but the record company never gave them the support they needed. The lead singer was Davie Pattison who went on to form his own band in 75 or thereabouts, they were going places until their manager, a certain buddy of Billy Connolly, was implicated in one of the biggest drugs busts of the time. he was financing some gigs in the states and was arrested a few days before departure. Turned out he was going to line the cabinets of their sound gear with packets of LSD. All their stuff was confiscated pending trial. DP went on to become a member of a US band called Gamma who were led by a popular guitarist called Ronnie Montrose and had some chart hits with them, he now splits his time between his own blues projects and singing with Robin Trower.http://www.daveypattison.com/index.html. Apparently he is in the UK with Trower this year, Glasgae Arches in May.

Crummy post on a crummy thread

I was giving this one some thought as well, she struck me as the office lady type in a 70s soft core movie with those glasses. then I saw her reporting the floods minus the specs, what a midden, very masculine and large facialfeatures, amazing what a good pairof gregory pecks can do

Admiral lord nelson (i'd kiss his hardy) Miss Kelly (english teacher at his academy 73-75) Emily symons (emmerdale) Jan leeming circa 1975 Mary Marquis A young Helen Mirren (even the name gets me hard) As an aside, I'll never forget a comment from a guy who sat next to me in school "Im no a poof, but a if a met a bird who looked like Bowie on the cover of Pin Ups I'd find it hard to say no"

Jennifer Anuston(sic) with breasts. Every grown man's dream

Paul o grady - why do grannies love poofs? Noel Edmonds- Insincerity in a (baw) bag, the viewer killing fiend Eamon Holmes- Abusing the privileges offered by widescreen tv Shane ritchie-one post isnt long enough William Shatner- smiled his way through the aftermath of the untimely and somewhat inexplicable death of his spouse. Do I only get 10? And Clarkson, can we have him in the sweepstake as well?

Peter Kay-self infatuated, unfunny joke stealer Vernon Kay- vomit inducing interviews and "look at me I'm lovely" prancing Chris Moyles- Believes all the hype cos he comes up with it in the first place That fanny that reads the news next to Jackie Bird, I pass him at the beeb and he is the scottish embodiment of ron burgundy Andy Walker- it's all been said before Do I only get 5?

The guy is over rated. I like the hootenanny but the rest of it leaves me nonplussed. I decided a few years ago that i should try and like him, so I bought an album. Big mistake, all blaring horns and clashing cymbals, I half expected them to go into the Batman tv theme at any time.
