i have a numbered bottle of whisky.....

will buffy and the immortal one manage to find each other on the train.... :001:

:rotflmao:

i'm not sure RiG. it's not the penman lounge in Dens that we have been to before... it's a wee bit further away than that. also maybe it's an age thing but last time i was there it was more than 5 mins walk! :003: i'll try to get a wee map... in fact if you can find the thread from december i'm sure i put a map on there...

What about the folk on the SC buses? the venue now is the Dundee Supporters Club on Thistle St. I'll try to find a map to it but it's about a 10 min walk to the ground.

this is the last home game of the season RiG and as far as we're aware there are no season ticket holders in this section. what happens next season may be slightly different and better but as L_G says it's now over to you guys to make this happen. so get out there and get your pals together and make it work...

What about the folk on the SC buses? i'll sort that out Rig. the venue now is the Dundee Supporters Club on Thistle St. I'll try to find a map to it but it's about a 10 min walk to the ground. again they're looking for numbers....

just heard that Alan Ball died this morning aged 61. A good footballer, he had his troubles to seek as a manager and wasn't best liked by the Scots! I listened to a tribute programme on Radio Scotland a few weeks ago at the anniversary of our Wembley 3 2 win. He went on at great length about Jim Baxter's performance on that day. He said half of him was thinking " How do I get the ball off that bugger" and the other half wanted to applaud. He was full of admiration for Slim and the whole team that day. Seldom do you hear that kind of tribute from an opposition player.

don't think that will be a problem Howdie! :003:

the penman lounge is shut as they are going to do it up and make it into a pub... :007: i have asked about the club on thistle st (i think it is) but haven't heard yet...

trying to confirm..... how many would you be taking RiG, Alex or anyone else that's planning it...

got it Scotty thanks! :001: yes - it was a great night that one..... Yompa's 50th, the end of season 'do', Dennis talking for hours and hours, the pictures wee Fin drew for him, Robbo giving the jacket to the Fly, and all the players being there for ages and ages!!

:004: :001:

totally agree Scotty - and while I have been to Victoria Park a couple of times in the away end this is one day that I could not in all honesty go. If the worst happens and they do go down I really woudn't want to see that. i don't think we will poach fans from them - there are already a percentage go to see both clubs and would probably continue to. however i suspect that we would not increase our own support just cos they go down... It's a bit sad when we are playing a game which could put us in 8th and all the additional cash that goes with that our fans are talking about going to support a team who could be our biggest rivals for survival next season rather than going and supporting our own team...

The Supporters Club End of Season 'do' will be taking place this year on Tuesday 15 May 2007 at 7.30pm down at the stadium. Once again due to the split we have not been able to arrange a 'traditional' party. This one will be a Meet the Players night with a buffet and hopefully we will be able to have a wee question and answer session with Charlie and the team. It will be an ideal opportunity to chat with the players and to get tops and autograph books signed. We will also be doing our presentations. Tickets are on sale for £5 from Committee members (me, Lady F, Smiler, Caleyjen, Shona Garrity and Kerr Campbell. You can get me on 07720 433660 or post here. We need to seriously think about what we do at the end of the season from now as this is certainly not the ideal. Last year we tried it at the start of the season but that wasn't very successful either for some reason. The club will now be having an annual ball towards the end of the season but the price of this puts it way out of the league of many 'ordinary' supporters and certainly the younger ones. The Committee have had various thoughts about what format this event should take in the future and when - possibly even again a midweek thing where the players could go but be able to have a drink and have it more of a disco type thing. The committee would welcome your input into this so we can start planning now for the future. Also, like any event it will only be a success if it's supported by the fans. It really is a shame for so much effort to be put into something, the players all to be there but the fans don'e seem to care.... Bit like a Saturday sometimes...

the demise of boris yeltsin means that there would have been 2 of my dead pool players off - him and saddam. with auld maggie not too good and maradona struggling a bit i could have been doing quite well.. what about anyone else?

got mine!! :021: cheapest to book with if you can is in Hoots. Only £2 per transaction rather than up to £6 per ticket!

:010: :010: :010: :010: Happy Birthday Tarzy baby! :drinking08: :party01: :party04: :party05: :party06:

so no one thinks this one is a good idea?

so far I'm the other.... Gordon Smith came up with a good suggestion - a bit complicated on the face of it but... He has been talking about the Austrian-Swiss set up an eight-four split with two tiers of twelve teams. The top eight would fight for the championship and European places and the bottom four join the top four of the other twelve in a play off for promotion and relegation issues, sounds like it could work, its been very successful over there, and it must be better than what we've got. :021:

tell me your joking CD.... :010: :010: :010:

Scotty, CD and the rest of the mods you do a thankless job a lot of the time but hey.... :025: :025: :025: :-* was trying to get a chance to chat on saturday CD but was distracted.... :004:

i'm all for freedom of speech. people should have the right to say what they want, when they want, about whom they want unless it degenerates into some of the stuff we've had in the past and when that happens I have faith that the moderators on the board to deal with it appropriately. we all (well most of us) pay money week in week out to watch the team. And so what if we're not a footy manager in real life. We all have an opinion and some of the best have been heard on the terraces over the years. it does seem that lately you have not been allowed to express your opinion without coming in for some pretty harsh criticism from the opposition (what ever side you are on) but as has been said before if you don't like what someone has to say you can ignore them either by pushing the button or by not reading or responding to their posts. it has certainly been mentioned that lately there are fewer posters on the site which is a real shame cos when we moved to 'unofficial' it was one of the better sites around. as for fishing trips - i remember the days when me and caleyfifer would spend a lovely evening doing a bit of fishing..... Lol! :001: :004:

me and 3 from here... and another 3 strays from down the road...
