F"king tremendous news
-
I've never felt it to be a problem, hitting the ground running - while doing the hurdles for example.......
That you have a problem with it has more to do with you being an unfit, rotund, middle aged chap than anything else.

As usual, pretty much on the money CS. Hopefully it was just a knee-jerk reaction from Gus after the piss poor defending in Dundee.
The more worrying thing is I don't think Gus has a settled formation or 11 in mind yet. And in that sense, we're still playing like we were in pre-season. Bugs like that should have been sorted out so we could hit the ground running instead of stuttering.
As I and others have said before surely we should continue with the 3-5-2 we had last season? I wanted 4-4-2 at the start of last campaign, but it ended up being so effective last time out you couldn't not like it. While it's true we have lost O'Neill, Gillies, Russell, Mixu, Ellis etc...we should still have the players to make it work:
Hinch in goal, perm 3 from 5 for the defence (I'd go for Potter, Millen & Kirky - not a McGowne hater but prefer Potter)...Reid at LWB, DVZ at RWB, central midfield of Murray, Reilly & Corcoran with Corky being advanced and given license to roam the width of the pitch. If he doesn't take to playing there then surely either Jinty or Bairdy would with their energy levels....all behind a front pairing of Mehmet & Kean at the moment. Or if we sign someone better to replace either of them, great.
That should give us a balance between creativity in the middle and on the flanks which is sorely needed, as well as being strong defensively AND with good attacking options.

Dani, it was on dafont, it's part of a Wrasslin font pack...
I'm surprised you haven't already got it tbh. You seem to have the Backlash font already, and both are part of this font pack....

Totally understand your concerns BtB. I bought the film not knowing quite what to expect but thankfully it didn't disappoint me nor did it leave me cold. It's not a film everyone will love, and it may even strike some as over the top but it is at least accessible on the 1st viewing imo - think it leads into the story very well and in the end, I ended up not being able to take my eyes off it.
If I were you I'd arrange a night to rent it out & watch it. You can only not like the thing after all. Personally I like watching it either before/after watching Hitler: The Rise of Evil (Still maintain Carlyle was brilliant as the 1-testicled one) within a few days to get a feel for both ends of the story.

Flippin' 'eck! Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence with Paisley's own Tom Conti? That's a smashing film.
The main theme Forbidden Colours is a beautiful piece of music so it really got on my tits when some bastard cranked up the tempo, stuck a dance beat under, put some willowy Japanese female vocals on it and called it The Heart of Asia. The heart had been ripped oot the tune.
Aye, I know what you mean about Watergate's Heart of Asia. Still, there's been huge numbers of ripoff's worse than that. Pachelbel's Canon has found its way into gawd knows how many pop songs and while we're on the subject Barbers Adagio for Strings, the epic theme tune from Platoon, was of course taken to the dance scene by one William Orbit. That's two that spring to mind for a start.
Still must admit I bought HoA bought anyway as I plain love Forbidden Colours - used to hear my mum play that to death on the old tape decks when I was wee. Surely a chillout tune before the phrase was ever invented.
Never knew Tom Conti was from Paisley tho!

Best 5 I own.......................
1. Schindler's List
(Not yer average war movie, but hardly yer average subject matter either
)2. Apocalypse Now
(Even if the story it was based on was set in Africa instead of 'Nam
)3. The Deer Hunter
(Walken at his best, and DeNiro wasn't bad either
)4. Platoon
(Anyone else notice the flag on the tank at the end?
)5. Zulu
(For the chant it's related to.......
)Must give an honourable mention to a great wee film that prolly won't make anyone's top 5... Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence. Helluva soundtrack too. Ryuichi Sakamoto put a great shift in with that movie.

Could be all change in the Bajan house after my forthcoming midseason break ? Think I could definitely raise 40 or maybe even 50p for SMISA/blackandwhitearmy.com if it was to go.
I'll chip in a twenty if you shave the beard off, Bajan.

Vangelis' score for "Blade Runner", and Ryuichi Sakamoto for the theme to "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" - both brilliant
-
Thanks for that one guys - thought that's what the tune was!
Another one I remember from my youth - The Equaliser - that had a decent theme as I recall...
-
Talking about World In Action got me thinking - what was that other current affairs programme that ITV used to show? Would have been on around 8 o'clock or 8:30 some week nights and had a recogniseable classical tune as it's theme (we're talking years ago here btw)...which I think may have been the Karelia Suite by Sibelius?
As for other good ones, Red Dwarf had a fantastic theme tune, as did the Clothes Show with the Pet Shop Boys song "In The Night".

Elvira's post there reminded me of this old one, wonder why that is........
Why Women Are Like Football Grounds:
01. There is a vast difference in grounds with regards to length and width, thus varying the quality of the play.
02. Pitches vary from the well-grassed to the completely bald.
03. Remember it is possible to score at both ends.
04. Tackling from behind is not always an offence - check with ground owner.
05. Be careful, as after a few pints a ground appears to be of SPL standard but in reality would not even be considered by Falkirk for groundsharing.
06. Only some grounds offer five-a-side facilities.
07. Don't ever make public your desires to play at Hampden, also never mention pitches previously visited.
08. Extra time is dependent on subsequent pitch bookings.
09. If the ground does not seem to have under-soil heating suggest calling the game off, possibly even contact coroner.
10. When building a team it is always nice to finish with Seaman at the back.
11. Wet pitches allow for long sliding tackles leaving your kit in a bit of a mess.
12. Always ask before leaving the pitch and entering the tunnel. Conversely, DO NOT expect to be allowed to come straight from the tunnel to the goal mouth and score. That can leave an awful taste in the mouth of the pitch owner and may prevent further use of the ground.
13. Personal morals may be compromised by local derbies.
14. It is illegal to play on small, unturfed pitches.
15. From time-to-time the goal may be obstructed by a highly absorbent goalie.
16. Very few grounds are found with executive boxes.
17. Be wary of grounds with room for coaches.
18. Always be on the look out for grounds that host ladies football two evenings a week.
19. Pitches with a waterlogged end, can be out of bounds for up to 5 days a month, although this can be longer if you xxxx the owner off by continually asking to play up the good end instead.
20. Players will have to agree personal terms with the club, before being allowed to play on the turf.
21. Always look for a ground that has never been played on before (or at least hasn't had many visits). That said, well used grounds may have better facilities and will really know how to get the best out of a player.
