  1. On a lighter note my EX Mother in law correctly  sussed me as a rogue. A month after she died me and my buddy were travelling across Poland by train heading to Warsaw and as always on trips, card games and 10 cans of Beer helped kill time. Whilst playing Triumph we had to cut the cards numerous times and the number of times I cut the Queen of Diamonds was unnerving. She was the Queen of her family and a Diamond to them and maybe I was being told I was still being watched. My mate hated it as he never won the cut. Even now if I have a bad gambling run I think she is orchestrating it.

  2. I travel often with Ryanair and Mrs and I do individual bookings. She pays extra £10 for priority therefore  can take a small case on board. I carry a small bag which fits under the seat at no extra cost. Remember if you want to sit together probably about £8 to £12 each way to book seat. Good airline to travel with once you have navigated extra charges.

    What an absolute nonsense, top coaching can take players with even limited talent further than they would without. Of course there are a number of factors that come into producing a top class player a lot of which include the player himself talent, mentality, commitment, ambition etc, but without top coaching they will never take their talent as far as they possibly could. If coaching weren't a factor everyone would still be running about like headless chickens in the playground. You only have to look as far as what Brenda Rodgers did with the players at Celtic to see how top coaching can influence a players career and maximise their talent

    I said top internationals, Rodgers improved Mcgregor, Forrest and Armstrong but they are hardly superstars. Coaching cannot make that happen.

  4. Coaching can be good to fine tune only if the talent is present. Our players do not have the talent to be top internationals.  This obsession blaming Celtic, Rangers and the SFA has being ongoing since France 1998. In that time apart from Ferguson and Fletcher we have produced mediocrity.

    New league starts in May ; only 7 teams initally ; and seemingly 3rd attempt to get a pro team off the ground here

    http://cavalryfc.canpl.ca/

    will be well below mls 1 / 2 level ; likely below highland league , but novelty of having some games to watch in the flesh after 13 odd years here is appealing

    new 6k stadium just down the road from my end of town too ; showjumping grounds ( is brian irvine still in the game )

    sounds like a Cdn FA cup type affair also

     ( and beer in the stands )

    season ticket booked

     

    Lad and family moving to Calgary from Toronto soon will pass on details.

    100s stranded in Milan.

    good night out however worried about getting there in time for buses tomorrow 

    Aye Easyjet flight from Edinburgh 2 hours late. Changed my flight  to Thursday and stayed in Ibis as feared possible delay on the Friday. How did everyone eventually get to Albania?

    Bang on  too many of the tartan tourists would rather miss the match than a Tam or Ted gig so they can dance with each other and sing proclaimers songs 

    the Self-interst Football Association wont change unfortunately 

    I can assure you  the Scotland fans didn't hold back in Israel and most where fairly sober. Now this has happened the manager and players are  aware that lack of effort will not be tolerated. Tartan Tourists and Happy Clappers do exist but so do passionate fans who take defeat hard.

  8. I was at the match and witnessed the abuse the players and management received, quite correctly.  This is the beginning of a different attitude from the fans telling all concerned don't dare serve up this shite again. Don't dare play with no heart or effort. Boycott no, criticism yes. Happy clapping days are gone.

    Your salary dropped by £35k? As in it "dropped" by £10k MORE than the national average salary?

    There's folk in the call centre in my work earning £18k a year for a 40hr week, with 25 days annual leave and 7 stats.

    Forgive me for my bleeding heart when I hear about those in the oil industry moaning.

     

    Pretty much correct about call centres, I did 5 years at one of the better ones. Amazing the number of employees educated to degree and above who cannot get work elsewhere. Offshore workers should be a bit humble instead of moaning.

     Prepare for long queues before the game 

    Don't agree, even if only outlet is Haifa then 8 hours is ample to distribute what will probably be just over 1200/1300 briefs. Calls for a bit of inconvenience but so what. Be train up for me and Davey bus back.
