Haugh Aye

From Ulceby North Lincolnshire, via a week near Creetown in Galloway. A sober one, as I will have my 3 boys with me as the Auld yin will have to dog sit in Rutherglen!!

What a dangerous dangerous precedent this will set. The game will never be the same again if this is allowed to happen. Every losing team in every game now have the right to write a letter, point out a foul that wasn't given before a goal, a penalty that wasn't given, etc. If, for example, as happened recently, Dundee Utd played Celtic 4 times in 2 weeks, what is to now stop one of the teams writing a letter after 1st game and cite a bad foul that went unpunished, and get a top player banned for the next game? Then the other team does it for the next game? Absolute farce. Expect nothing less from SFA. And the officials?

I have just moved from West Yorks, but I am on holiday in Galloway anyway that day. But, Megabus. Leave Leeds 6am>>Glasgow 11.45>>>pub>>Hampden>>depart Glasgow 7pm>>Leeds 0.45am. Long day but doable

I am thinking of putting astroturf in garden instead of grass. What do you think?

Pain in t' arse, but hotel booked. Extra night due to SFA Sky Stupidity. All we are waiting for now are the rip off priced tickets.

That will explain why we only won 2-0. 10 men for the whole game would be a disadvantage. ;-)

I took one of my boys to his 1st competative football game yesterday. He is 12. As I don't tolerate swearing/name calling from the kids(I know hard for some to believe), I explained before the game that there will be unsavoury language, songs and chants and sat along from where the main singing crowd was. The worse chants/shouts we heard were from the drunk Hamilton "fan"(suspect there may have been an OF influence). Son just laughed at him and carried on watching the game. The ICT songs/singers he thought were great and funny and he joined in with the songs he knew. He wants to move closer to the noise at the next game I take him to. Walking out is just rediculous. Just move, or talk to steward, or, your god forbid, speak to the person that is causing you grief. The kids now think its acceptable the only option to a problem, is to walk away.

You could try The Eagle. But at that time of day it may have to be via the back door. http://www.timeout.com/newyork/bars/the-eagle

Who?

Looked offside. Thats the first I have seen of us this season. I assume we have played much better so far this season and this is a blip. Very poor in final 3rd. Not much creative stuff going on. Defence looked solid enough. Unlucky with the big deflection for the goal. Brill had shot covered. Still, thats what happens when yer in the big league, the wee teams raise their game against us. As for the ref, are they drug tested?

The The Rangers fans seem quite happy to be beating a big team.

If I didn't know better, I would say that the ref is under orders that a certain team qualifies. Some of the decisions I've seen have been shocking.

Its good thinking by Roy to get rid of Adams before the Cownty season starts. With agent Reguero doing a great job at the moment, I feel a candlelight seethe session in Dingwall coming on!

Ceilidh seem to be doing fine at the moment.

Has to be Celtic at home 1st game. New manager for Celtic, few new players for them, best chance to beat them.

Obviously the Cup semi-final was tops as a one off game. But being the only other team apart from Cellic to have topped the SPFL is worth shouting about!

That was a poor show from ALBA. Where was the warning about the sight right at the end of the program? The kids are off to bed and I am fully expecting screaming nightmares to occur through the night. I spent years telling them there are no monsters in the house, and then Alba show CALEYD !!!! ;-)

Ossett Town and Ossett Albion would be perfect. I could nearly stagger home from there!!

I suspect that yer reply would have been similar if the prices had increased. And i am sure if prices had dropped you would call it desperation to get more sales. Yer nothing if not predictable. Bored.

1 of only 2 decent things to come out a Hull. The other one being the A63

Mystified that the victim of an assault gets charged for defending himself . Fair play to Richie though and I personally hope he leathered the racist . Nothing mystifing about a victim being arrested. It happened to me. I was attacked by 8 ski-bum types one night in Carrbridge and as they were knocking umpteen piles of poop out of me, I hit one with a bottle that one of them had dropped. Messy. I had broken wrist, knocked out for 5 minutes and cuts all over I got charged with assault and one of the other guy's got charged with breach of the peace.

Richie seems to have shown great restraint on the night in question. Fair play to him. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-26957088

Certainly weren't there to move the Aberdeen ballboys during the penalty shoot-out.

Well done to those who went today. But i think if any proof was needed, today proves that any discounted tickets should be aimed at season/half season ticket holders. The club has done more than enough trying to get the neutral/other team/occasional fans in the door with discounts and offers. Give any discounts to those that are supporting the club through good and bad times.

I suppose that you may not remember watching Bristol Rovers in Bath !! When was I in Bath?
