So you tipping Accies to go down this season? Outliers: That's always the catch with ELO and such like. They base likelyhood on past performance. You'll need to add some calculus to spot improving trends 🤕

How do your rankings compare with the final league positions? Or have you frigged it to match prior to the season kicking off?

Sorry HP, I'm not much help. I was hinting at extreme cases where someone's been parking regularly over months, say. Then the parking company or whoever can weigh up legal costs and work out that they'll win as per the original post. That's what I meant by 'threshold'. If someone's only parked a few times, they might not bother. I'm no expert I'm afraid.

So total membership has dropped from 30k to 20k this year I think.

Cheers Sempre. For future reference, where can I look that up?

Who do you think you are kidding Mr..... 🎶

I think I like it better when a thread turns to flat earth.

Why should we have to use Twitter? SSC membership fees don't seem to cover the cost of a fekkin' email. To much hassle for them to manage they say. Anyway, thanks to Wanderer for keeping (grumpy) TAMBers in the loop at least ⏰

Lucky he has only 6 tickets. Know someone in a resident's association and they keep records. If someone is using their spaces over a long period of time it's a no brainer for them to go to court. No idea what the Co-op's threshold might be.

Lots of politics, but not much government these days.

So is that the current (2017) ranking used to determine these Nations Leagues, or is it the ranking after the Nat L group stages are done? The latter will be used to seed teams for the Euro draw and for each group (A,B,C,D)...

I remember 1995 as being wet ! I'm sure that was the year the TV never shut up about the heat wave down south and it was was shite here. Maybe just wet in the west? I was working in Greenock after all ☔

Old enough? I was married by then. I was there - - my first game in a couple of years I think, as I was an armchair fan around that time. Me and a pal just decided to go on the spur of the moment, and we were three or four up before I realised it was only a warm up game We sorted our heads out and came back for the Spain game shortly afterwards though. I don't remember going to 1990 qualifiers, but see Yugoslavia got to the QF and went out on penalties to Argentina. Don't remember that either though - - all those world cups are just a blur now.

Aye, and playing it in winter too.

One of the very few Rangers games I've ever been to, but agree. I also remember Red Star killing the game with 20mins to go. Despite being different class they annoyingly started falling over, and such like. Very professional as they say, and showed a discipline that went along with the talent.

Well France sat in and hoofed it a couple of times We just need an Mbappé !

US competition: China, Russia & EU. UK is an easy target to weaken the EU.

Err, doesn't George kill Lennie 🤔 ?

Uruguay won it twice too you know 😉

You sure Davy? Don't you mean UTC+2 (i.e. GMT+2 in old money)? CET is UTC+1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time#/media/File:Standard_World_Time_Zones.png

Can't remember when it rained here last. Early June? And there was a hot spell end of May before that.
