  1. I know it was only one game but he was played in midfield at Palmerston last season. Not his best game!
  2. Not a lot of options on the bench. Prob Reilly although I'd like Caldwell to get a game.
  3. £6 for the two of us! They don't do "lifties" any more!!!
  4. £6 cheaper to get in at Aberdeen... but £30 plus travel on a Tuesday night??????
  5. Foot planned it... Kinnock bottled it and settled for reform. Last big reform was under Bliar. However. ..I have never before heard so many voters discuss it far less be aware of it.. and a number of senior politicians are also talking in public about it. If the public push for it... I believe there is a collective will to make it happen.
  6. Adult and 16 year old = £36 = not going!
  7. Amen fellow 100% er! We should be united in our drive for home rule for Scotland Wales and NI and increased devolution in England's regions... and the abolition of the unconstitutional House of Lords. No reason why those who dream of Independence can't continue to work towards that dream... but using tge aforementioned as a stepping stone!
  8. Collectively? As the 45 "twibbon" campaign shows... there is no will for unity... just a misplaced sense of injustice and an unwillingness to accept a democratic decision. Ditch the 45 and 55... When I see 100% I will believe "collectively" is possible. Right now though... 45 is a divisive campaign!
  9. Musical tip... act fast... thank me later... Jon Allen... Monday 20 October @ King Tuts, Glasgow £13... aye... just £13... for a concert that will move you to your musical core!!!... 3 albums... not a weak track... seriously... get a ticket while you can and see this amazing singer at that price before he is a household name and you regret this missed opperchancity!!! Just listened to all three albums back to back... love it. https://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DkD3wWpZtFjI&h=FAQG5Mfhb https://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DA0XyW9f9Xq4&h=DAQEh_lSr https://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DkD3wWpZtFjI&h=FAQG5Mfhb
  10. I'd still much rather get a central defender in. Goals will come once we start defending properly and stop sacrificing attacking options to protect our lack of defense!!!
  11. But NATO remains committed to the retention of them and by continuing our membership we condone them... just as long as they are not on our doorstep! Hypocrisy.
  12. Really? You believe that? Despite the fact that we are to remain in NATO which is committed to the retention on nuclear weapons?
  13. But the album is 9 years old! What kept you? ;-)
  14. Gee thanks... you mean the tossers on Facebook no longer tell me what to do?
  15. RICHARD HAWLEY... ... why did nobody tell me before now just how brilliant he is?
  16. funniest thing I have seen in the referendum debates! love it! But NAW!
  17. Council tax freeze has taken 2.5 billions from the pot. Free prescriptions? Don't get me started.
  18. "It's all about individual opinions", I was told. For such a long time I was "undecided". I listened... I asked... I considered. Things DO need to change... I am a passionate Scot and love my country. I am Scottish first and British second. Something struck me quite recently as the two sides of the debate seemed to give up debating in order to round on each other... YES is a campaign... a cause... something that some people have spent their whole adult lives campaigning for. A deep seated belief worth fighting for. I have no problem with that... I admire the passion. NO is not so much a campaign as a response... that for me explains the apparent apathy... the late rallying call. It is no less valid for that. Anyway... I digress. I asked questions of politicians I admire and respect... but was left with more questions as a result. If we are so anti-Trident, why retain membership of NATO which is committed to retaining a nuclear deterrent? NIMBY hypocrisy in my opinion. If we want full independence, why fight to retain the pound and demand a currency union where our intetest rates will be set by the central bank of another country? If we want to make our own choices, why try to break free from Westminster whilst by default, ceeding more power to Brussels? If our economy is to be centred around banking, the public sector and oil, isn't the volatility a high risk strategy best spread over a larger number of people? If so many people are unemployed in Scotland, why is the White paper committed to increased immigration for Scotland? If we are committed to retaining free education then why is nobody talking about the 130,000 college places that have lost funding to pay for Uni places? College places are just as important and will boost the working sector. With the White Paper projecting an initial annual deficit of 5.5 Billions, how are oil reserves going to be built up whilst we also increase spending on a number of key areas? As I said at the start... CHANGE is required... but change for changes sake is a dangerous thing. The needs in Scotland are very different from those of London... but the needs in Shetland are very different from those in Glasgow and Edinburgh. Increased devolution throughout the whole of the UK has always been my preferred option. That is still a possibility. I share this not to try and sway anyone's vote... and NOT to invite personal abuse or criticism. I share it simply to evidence that I HAVE actually spent time considering the options and thinking about the consequences of my vote. Regardless of my vote and regardless of the outcome, I vote with the best interests of Scotland at heart and remain a passionate Scot.
  19. Hibs have been in terminal decline for years. Big Yogi seems to be doing not too terribly at ICT after being trashed at Easter Road.
  20. What does he know... Signing duds like Harkins!!! ;-)
  21. I'm can't wait to see if it is Rangers or Hearts we face should we be able to secure 11th!!! Resigned to relegation already... thanks Mr Gilmour for setting the tone. What have we got? APATHY Why do we have it? WHO CARES!!!!!!!!!
