Dalgety Bay TA

Ohh he was, and much more. The Madrid derby's with him noising up Ramos and Pepe were the usual highlight of his mentalness. I am sure the pair of them were scared of him, he used to just go for them from the start. Also have a Google, you will be able to see clips of him gobbing on Ramos a couple of times in one game. An absolute nutjob.

Yep, got him, very close to the bone but always pushing the "freedom of speech" argument. Rightly IMO. Nope, disagree. Is it really such a huge issue if one Aberdeen fan, who wants to attend the game, and can't get a ticket, says they are going to get a ticket in the Celtic end, where plenty are available. Its not like he is going in tooled up to cause bother....unlike the 80's. The fact that folk feel the need to "report" this sort of thing is infantile in the extreme. Considering we, as a support at away game, positively encourage it wherever we play means that anyone who feels its wrong is pretty hypocritical. IMO. This is where I get the "grassing up" part that TJ is referring to. The comments on here, and on Twitter, are hardly Al Qaida planning another 9/11. Its folks talking, winding up other fans, having a dig. Folks really need to redial their offendometer back a few notches IMO. Sticks and stones and all that.

I seen King was talking about restoring Rangers to the "traditions values and ethos" of when he was a kid growing up. That will be all the Tims fvcked off out the club then.

Those pesky Celtic supporters get everywhere.

Its not often that you get things wrong on TAMB.....but you have this time.

Elgin Defence League?

Yep some of the stuff played in second half was good, quick tempo, kept the ball well. It's the first time Ive really watched Aberdeen this season and I was impressed by first half. Quite a few chances created, just fell to wrong people (Considine). Some saying they are toothless but they have top scorer in SPL and if Rooney had been playing for us second half he would have had 2 or 3 based on chances we passed up in last 30 mins. KPS mentioned in other match thread that credit should be given to Aberdeen for their consistency to this point, that's true too. The reason the leagues been done in the past by now is all the other teams have taken points from each other. The difference when 1 side can avoid falling into that category and string a set of wins together is actually very good for all Scottish football as it keeps the interest levels far higher.

Good sensible post and spot on about everything, game and season so far. I mentioned in the car crash thread that Celtic didn't look the side who had played a tough game on Thursday in the last 30 mins and you can see Delia's way he wants to play and emphasis on fitness and pressing really starting to come thru now.

i think the goal just before HT after Aberdeen had missed the best of the chances before hand was a real sickener for them. And then when pushing for the equaliser, the conceding of such a silly pen finished them off. The last half hour could have seen a bucketload if chances had been taken but the other thing that came through in that period, IMO, was Celtics fitness. Delia has been keen to improve that and implement the pressing game....and its starting to show dividends. Celtic certainly didn't look the side who had played a hard game and with 10 men for about an hour on Thursday, Aberdeen looked the ones who who looked like they were flagging, whether that was tiredness or just dispirited from the score line I don't know.

Please please delete the reference to acting. Apart from Boyz N The Hood and the Friday series, he's exactly what he was rapping about on Burn Hollywood Burn on FOABP. Are We There Yet - FFS!!! Must have been a quiet life up north for DandyDunn Btw, have you seen the trailer for Straight Outta Compton, looks good.

LOL, thats some assumption you have just made from "That is rubbish, it's a song about a Bridgeton Gang fighting another gang originally." At no time does that comment say that GMC either defends, admires or celebrates that song. Did you do reading at school?

As you said, they have some great ball players, with pace, in their squad so surely being able to break on Barca would have been a better way to set up last night. And if they wanted a bit physicality up front then Bony would probably have been the better option over Dzeko. Dzeko may have a height advantage over the majority of Barca but Pique and Busquets would and did take care of him without much issue. Besides the rest of their side had as much a look of the Time Bandits about it as Barca traditionally look. Also, for all their millions spent, if they best they can come up with to play Barca in midfield when Toure is out are James Milner, a decent but average BPL player, and Fernando, another quite limited player, then someone has spent money poorly somewhere along the line. Iniesta, Rakitic and Busquets just passed round those two easily. And as you said, no real back up to them from Silva and Nasri. Milner would have been better used in the wide role he normally plays, he would have chased back more, he would have provided more support to the centre mid if he was in his normal position but seeing him playing chase ball against 3 of the best possession players in European football, I almost felt sorry for him!

Lee Dixons normally a decent pundit but he seemed to go back to the 80s tonight in first half....City have to send it over the top, City have to get it down the wings and chuck it in the box....I am sure they might have if they could have got hold of the ball. For a 10 min spell from about 20-30 mins I think City has the ball for about 60 secs. Going in with 2 men in centre mid v Barca was tactical suicide from Pellegrini.

You could have got Edin - Dublin for £180, same days.

Not PGB!

Ehhh??! How many football managers do you know that celebrate defeat with their fans? I have seen some daft comments on here but that probably beats most of them.

Just interested by the above. What price would you make Bayern Munich on a semi neutral ground v Shakthar?

Regarding the Hearts game, from the video clips I saw, it was the mob mentality outside, lets get the fvckers, burn the witch etc etc. And then when they few did get inside past the 80 year old commissionaire they.......well they jumped about a wee bit, took some pics with a flag and shouted a few things....and then left. In short, they didn't know WTF to do when they were actually there so I would have said the actual threat to Ashley. Easdales etc's well being, both there, and at an EGM, isn't that much IMO. While they are all angry at the running of the club, its doubtful any of them would do time for assaulting any of the board.

I have no real interest in clubs with boardroom issues, Smith, McCoist or our next performance director. I was just stunned to read such a factually and grammatically incorrect post being made on here without anyone taking it to task. Standards have dropped. Is English your second language by any chance? You don't seem to be able to understand the definition of anarchy and you think that divisions of people within an establishment are cliches and fractions, not cliques and factions. You also think that a clubs boardroom p!ssing off the fans means the fans alienate themselves. If however you are a foreigner to these lands I take it all back as your basic grasp of the English language is undoubtedly better than mines would be of whatever you native language is.

I was agreeing with your "rocket" comment. You rocket!

Jeezo, that was horrific. 1. If anything Rangers are a dictatorship under Ashley's control at the moment, couldn't be further from anarchy if they tried. 2. See point 1 in relation to the "boardroom in-fighting". 3. You have thrown around more "cliches" in this thread than a tabloid journo, and not even fractions of cliches, whole big whopping ones. 4. The club are alienating the fans, the fans aren't alienating themselves. Don't think I have read a more bagoshite comment on this forum ever. And thats saying something. Its like it was originally written in a foreign language and then fired through Google Translate 4 or 5 times.

Word!

Sorry, first time on since yesterday. A good starting guide even if from a few years ago http://lifehacker.com/5601586/how-to-get-started-with-usenet-in-three-simple-steps And http://lifehacker.com/5905756/is-usenet-safer-than-bittorrent Any questions let me know.

I have had a couple of the XBMC boxes (an Ouya console and another one, name escapes me) but have never found them really worthwhile sacking off Sky for. Most of the movies and TV shows are off good quality - if you can find good sources. All they do is stream movies and shows uploaded to a variety of file sharing sites. I was getting pee'd off taking 10 goes to find one site that actually had the files accessible however. Sports, or football, was a complete waste of time for me. They are again just versions of the various internet streams that many people watch. They suffer against the quality of movies/tv because movies/tv can be uploaded and then watched at your convenience. The sports are happening in real time so something somewhere has to get a feed in the first place, and then keep it online, and then stream it out and you then have to hook into that stream. On the handful of occasions I watched, usually for no more than 10 mins, the feeds could be patchy and the actual quality was v poor. I am sure they would be fine watched in a wee screen on your laptop or desktop monitor but taking that same "quality" and then sticking it on any TV that is 40" and up, well its like watching games underwater. End of the day I just went back to newsgroups for TV and movies, a NAS drive, Sickbeard and SAB and leave my PC on at night and all my TV is there waiting for me in the morning.

I think that's really the only gripe and also probably mainly relates to the Armstrong deal. Getting cash, of sorts, for GMS now as opposed to nothing in the summer, probably makes financial sense. Armstrong would have went for as much in the summer as now no doubt and you don't need the money so its a bvgger to lose him.
