  1. All for giving "cheaper" Whisky a go, but Tesco Value is pushing it a bit, I'd rather experiment with Windolene or Meths :puke03:
  2. I wouldn't ever claim to being an expert on Whisky or the differing flavours from the differing regions etc. I know what I like and thats about it. I also shy away from recommending a Whisky to anyone who asks what is good/bad as it is, IMO, very much a personal thing unlike Vodka which clearly has good and bad brands. The bottle I have open at the moment was a gift and is a 12yr Old Glenfiddich (Special Reserve), very enjoyable dram. Also found myself tending more towards Malts than Blends recently since I have all but given up drinking anything except Whisky - Beer, Lager and Cider leave me feeling like chit next day, even if I only have just the half pint. Also, I have to say that it really does my box in when I see someone adding Coke or Lemonade to Whisky.
  3. I think your being a little naive RiG, the act of waving the flag itself may be ok, but we all know that a large portion of those waving the tricolor do it with the intent of stirring up some kind of controversy, just as those Rangers fans who choose to wave the Union Flag and the St George's Cross do. Unfortunately these flags have been hijacked by and have become symbols for extremist elements, the same cannot be said for the T&T flag, and the two scenarios are a world apart. I do agree that their is little that can be done about someone waving a flag though, and if society chose to ignore/deny the significance that has been attached to them and concentrated on dealing with the issues that can be clearly set apart as sectarian (songs and chants etc) then we may start to make inroads into the problems.
  4. I try not to think - it hurts too much.
  5. Tattie Scone....that would complete the perfect breakfast roll. I miss the Donar Kebabs I used to get when I stayed in Livingston, the biggest I had ever seen made using a nan bread and enough to feed a family of 4...or just me after I'd had a couple of beers, seriously, these things were the size of a loaf of bread. Put what you couldn't eat in the fridge then slice it and fry it the next day in a really hot pan - serve with a portion of curried beans....guaranteed to have plenty space around you in the office the following Monday :001: And the all time classic....melted cheese on toast with Worcester (SP?) Sauce.
  6. If the Courier/HN had printed a full back page on it we would be on here arguing things from the opposite angle...would be a boring world if we all thought the same wouldn't it!!!
  7. Clicky Clicky Thing :004:
  8. "Want a right laugh....look what you have in your hand" "Everyone p1sses on the floor, impress me by chitting on the ceiling".....Found it hard to resist looking at ceiling to see if anyone had obliged.... :015:
  9. Free Password - far too generous an offer, how can you afford it!!!!
  10. The thing is, many people think Romanov is getting his come-uppence when in fact he is getting exactly everything he wants and has been aiming for since day 1. They guy may be a little on the crazy side but I don't believe he is as stupid as everyone thinks. All he is/was interested in was the real estate that came with taking over Hearts and at this rate he is goig tbe have flats built on it by 2010 with the excuse that the situation at the club become unworkable for him as his excuse for just brushing aside everything.
  11. I thought we saw the best of Hastings when Morgan was playing in front of him on the left a couple of times last season, the two of them worked the left as well as Rossco and Wilson worked the right so it may be McBain that is the issue on that one. Also in the match v the Dons I thought Hastings did tremendously well going forward on a couple of occasions and I would even be tempted to try him out on the left if we had a better option at left back.
  12. Now 1-1
  13. The gas pipe is the main reason that anything more than a shorter/shallower version of the end stands would have to generate income to give the funds to faciliate the extra cost involved in shoring up the ground above it or relocating it. For the sake of "completeness" then a fourth stand would be good, but from a practical standpoint I think it makes more sense to have corner pods as the next priority as these can contain office/corproate facilites and would be far cheaper. I know a lot of people will probably disagree but I think their is something rather appealing about the stadium being open to the road so that all who pass over the bridge and see it can look right in to the ground, if the stadium was located elsewhere then this would seem totally wrong, but something about the current setup just feels right from a passer-bys perspective. It's likes it open and inviting people in somehow.
  14. I have merged topics but I haven't deleted anything
  15. Now thats funny :015:
  16. I'd prefer he was given the recognition he deserves whilst he is with ICT and doesn't feel the need to move to get these opportunities.
  17. Disagree with your point about Dargo being "one player who'll keep running all game long" - that may have been the case last season, but from I have seen and heard this season he isn't chasing a fraction of what he was. And IF he was chasing everything all game long then surely fresh legs is the answer, therefor justifying the substitution???
  18. No teacup needed :004: Clicky Clicky
  19. If memory serves me corectly I think the per minute/connection charges were capped (at £1.50 I believe) a few years back to prevent these types of scams which used to be common place. It's the same with these txt services for mobile phones, thats why you will never see them more than £1.50 for a single txt alert/message (anything more expensive will be charged to your mobile phone by sending you multiple messages)
  20. RiG, you constantly moan about the poor atmosphere at games, then when people get a little excited about the prospect of a good finish in the SPL and the possibility of bigger things your on their backs for getting carried away!!!! It's the fans place to get excited about these things and use that energy to fuel thier support for the team on matchdays, it's the job of CC and the rest of the management team aswell as the players to keep their feet on the ground (as well as the ball..pleaseee) in order to keep grinding out the results and fueling the excitement for the fans.
  21. Yes, but only from the entirely selfish point of view that I struggle to make Saturdays just now with work. Saturday 4pm should be football time at the end of the day though and everything else should revolve around it....including my shifts :001:
  22. Ain't that the truth!!!!!
  23. Never trust an ancient philosopher with a stutter!!! Although I do find it hard to believe that they can - once again - fail to give ICT the credit they deserve with regards to news coverage it does not suprise me in the slightest. I'm sure thier is some benefit of remaining out of the spotlight though, keeps the pressure off the team a bit.
  24. Thats not what you said - it's there for all to see. You said that you believe Utd will find themselves in the Top 6 come the end of the season, possibly at our expense and that ICT should be concentrating on survival first....surely these scenario's should be reversed unless you have more faith in Levein turning things around at Tannadice and marching up the table to replace us than you have in ICT sustaining a top 6??? I agree we should be keeping our feet on the ground at ICT given how tight the table is at the moment, I just find your logic that United are more likely to finish top 6 than us very strange.
  25. How can you say in one thread that ICT (who are currently sitting in the top 6) should be concentrating on securing SPL survival and not thinking about a top 6 at the moment then come on to another an say that bottom of the league United who are 10 points behind us will IYO be looking at a top 6 - very bizarre :017:
