Auchinyell Sox Change

Turning point is when nippers can get up In morning and turn tv on Then get breakfast Was a defining moment for me anyway

Knew some guys from GlenrothesA bizzare mix of Dons , United & hertz ...

Man Utd v Bayern champs lge final for sheer drama

Could never quite get why older guys were supporting Utd when I used to attend games regularly in 80sA lot must have switched from Dundee ; or support both clubs

To be fair you guys should get a bottle stitched on your tops ; to commemorate the one that was lost in Rome '84Maybe Ralph tanned it ; explaining the dreadful early miss that would have changed the game

am seeing a young Jim Leighton , and Paulie from the Sopranos also

for some reason i tend to look back at teachers at primary school with more fear - did get the strap several times- only once at secondary notably from the primary headmaster , for me and mate taking turns pushing each other round class on a chair , playing 'a man called ironside' was about 9 or 10 i think also the jannie was a tough ex military type , black uniform , who would lead you by the ear lobe if found playing fitba on the grass etc i do recall however , one time me & the same mate were drawing a battle scene on wallpaper for class wall - entitled El Alamein - said jannie stopped, looked with interest , and mentioned that he had fought there ; no great show though , passing mention brings a tear to my eye now i would hate to put my own kids thru the system of yesteryear , not just the hard core teachers (there were a few evil fokkers) but also the accepted bullying etc that was par for the course

noticed this quote at 11.23am "Solo occupant, an adult male being transported to local hospital in critical condition"

i've never been in the jungle but have been told that there used to collections for ra RA there anyone confirm or deny this ?

yes and Ipswich,Villa etc its all about pedigree

Correct , and the advent of spell checkers ?

Aye before the 60s/70s exodus by the local glory hunters to old firmMerkland road , not beach end btw

Got Red tv for the lge cup semi last year v St j At Tynecastle Half time camera was trained on close up of guy with fork fixing the pitch I do like the old matches though Watched upset doza 0-2 away recently Shocker we lost that game I was at home game

Am sure has acted as a life lesson for the guy who wrote this Bad taste , am sure he regrets it now Noticed his age ; still a teenager ( just ) Wonder how many morally correct middle aged guys took delight in using the 'Joey' terminology in their younger years / with the actions etc Appreciate from a different time ; but luckily did not have a forum to replicate your thoughts nationwide at the drop of a hat

The old 1st division was such a model for success they canned it for the smaller prem leg set upToo many middle of table pointless games half way thru season

One Twitter does not make a summer

Marine anthem right ? Am sure will offend someone Bombing of tripoli etc

Unusual for folk to give feedback in these situationsWe are told not to anyway

Ice T is the boy from Special victims unit (the tv show ; not a celtic fan group) - an ex rapper ; is he related to ice cube ; just not as cool

http://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/news/local/gallery-sporting-chance-for-all-at-aberdeen-s-famous-linksfield-stadium-1.361118 check out photos on this link theres one with police on the pitch - have no idea what this is about does look like a sizeable stand though - and you get an idea of terracing from other photo classic with david wilkie too in the pool

what about the slaves.......

Williamson Cat of nine tails concealed under sports jacket Ageing sgt major type VW combo van

Did the American fitba team play there too I know they had a stint at Nelson street with temp seating Granite city oilers ? Mid 80s

Last time I was there mid 80s there was a cinder track in front of the terracingJudging by photos this indeed was blitzed to make way for a proper athletics track The old stand was pretty sizeable I found some photos on EE website One shows cyclists with terrace behind
