Good for you! Think you'll love it.

Walter smith? Jesus wept. If ever there was a reason to completely abolish the sfa, it's if they are seriously considering Walter.

Go for it. Agree snow is better than the dry - but the best is if you can get the hang of it book a week in france somewhere. its absolutley amazing. skiing lets you get to places you just normally wouldn't unless you are a mountain climber i suppose. stunning.

my kids ski at hillend every week on the dry slope - its actually very good once you get used to it. teaches you good technique. get one to one or small group lessons i would say. one to one is going to be more expensive thats the only thing but to start with probably worthwhile. I also learned at Glenshee - used to go every week as a boy when the snow was good. and the snow used to be very good. I remember the drifts being higher than the minibus on the way up the road. fitness wise you should be ok - it'll be your legs that get it mainly, obviously, if you are generally quite active - you will take a few bumps and bruises as you learn (not as many as with snow boarding though) but one thing with skiing, once you get half good at it, it can be quite a lazy sport. you can fly down the hill with minimal effort. just depends how much you want to push yourself.

Plenty time yet to get into the skiing. If you stay near glasgow get along to braehead and give it a shot. Get lessons though don't just go for it yourself . It's fantastic.

Will be at both home games and off to Rome for the Italy game too. Decent squad but like others, the injury count and affect on the forwards has me worried. Can't wait though. Love it.

Lack of qualification for decades has left the sofa skint. Hampden is beyond saving, why spunk any more money on it when there is a perfect alternative. That just doesn't make sense. The money is needed elsewhere not wasted on a vanity stadium.

Good riddance - should have gone a long time ago. But it's just a start.

Indeed Parkie, the existing laws should be enough. the people looking to repeal it though are just after a quick win against the SNP and they turn my stomach. either way the biggest problem with behaviour at football matches is the inability or rather the lack of willingness of the Police to implement/ use the laws at their disposal. its pathetic. this sectarian stuff and offensive behaviour could easily be clamped out if the authorities really gave a flying f*ck about it. but they don't. most of them seem to be quite tolerant of it , and that also turns my stomach.

Well, yes I know the sort of thing...as you say from an assistant manager..?

For Scotland as a lad it has to be the gemmill goal and the narey toepoke that really stand out. For Utd, luggy playing with his socks rolled down and no shin pads. Beautiful.

Sheep noises?

Oh and I think you are pretty spot on with the above. It's not a fantasy. You continue to lose money on an unsustainable level. That needs to stop or you will go bust again it's only a matter of time. Just like any other club including my own. No club is immune from the basic principles of economics as we have seen before.

Thanks FB. (I think)

now that would be interesting!

Yeh it may seem a funny question to ask but who the f@ck is paying a transfer fee. It's all a bit mental again.

You might expect that but we know on occasion that managers defend it

Believe he agreed with the booking and said McMullan should not be diving around the park

Cheers. Well fingers crossed. Lost Fraser and fyvie to injury so badly needed.

Just signed Craig Slater. What's he like?

Believe McMullan got a red for an embarrassing dive too when we were 4-1 up? Unbelievable.

A tmo would be cheaper to roll out and just as accurate in most situations. No reason decisions coukdnt be made very quickly. That goal would have been confirmed within seconds.

Obsessed? You following the right team?

Tbh for the last 2-3 years there had been f@ck all worth posting about my club on here. Sorry if my interest in Scottish football goes beyond my own club at times. I should be more narrow minded like you maybe eh?
