Sad to see a comic hero of yesteryear come across as a total P*i*k, Ronnie Corbett playing golf with Colin Montgomerie on "Made in Scotland" was as cringeworthy as anything i've seen in a long time, if this pair were meant to be promoting Scotland, i fear for the country :)

Aye, I'll second what Mr Chibber said.One of the good guy's.

Livi saved at the last minute. LIVI SAVED

If he wrote to complain would that be a French letter? :)

Totally agree with that, so why don't you support your local club? I Do JB,

Local retailers offer plenty that superstores can't, such as experience,information,specialist or even bespoke services,local knowledge etc,but at the end of the day,the majority of folk are driven by the bottom line in pounds and pence,without considering the bigger picture and supporting their local sherrif.On a daily basis i see tyre kickers with bits of paper and serial numbers scibbled on in specialist shops trying to glean product knowledge from specialists with knowledge gained over years, with the intention of heading off up to the superstore or tinternet to purchase the product to save a few quid.These traders are slowly dying out due, not only to lack of support and competition, but also legislation which makes it very difficult for the small business to operate.To use the hook line of one of the multiples,"once their gone,their gone" I suppose,to a degree, it could be analogised with Scottish football in that the vast majority are taken in by the big 2 and follow sucess and branding,but fortunatley, enough people (just) still see the value and benifit in supporting the local club which brings many other benefits to the local community Rant over.

Could be worse lads, Aberdeen are 2 doon to Peterheid!!

Asda,Tesco,Morrison's...all the same,killing off local business and replacing with homogenised souless cavernous stores.But we're all guilty of falling for the BOGOF and pile high sell cheap gimmicks to get us in and part us from our hard earned.Bad enough doing it with groceries but they branch into every niche and often undercut cost price with bulk buying power.Reckon the day's are numbered for small specialised traders with skills and product knowledge.

What a hugely disapointing finish to what was so nearly an historic victory for Watson.Lee must regret having a go for Birdie at 18 if only he'd known a par would get him in the play off I'm sure he could have done Cink,whereas Watson was totally burnt out from his efforts, but all easy with hindsight. Another fantstic 4 days entertainment and whatever the opinions of folk regarding the fitness levels of players,there's no doubting the massive skill levels and mental toughness required to win such an event.I can vouch that 4 continuos days playing golf is knackering,even for an athlete in prime condition such as myself, although i doubt these players go on the **** for four hours at the end of each round!

If only he hadnae made an erse of 16,i kinda worry if he can get over the finish line in a major.Today will be a different kettle with the weather, fancy Rory Mcillroy to tough it out,speshly if the winds pick up,warming up to be another great open :025: Tom Watson leading most of the day!!who'd have bet on that

Agree about Woods,undoubtedly the best golfer on the planet ever, but his disgusting spitting habit needs adressing,youngsters see what he does as the way to behave on the course. My couple of quids on Lee Westwood, watched him at Loch Lomond last week and he's playing great, confidence high, so fingers crossed he disnae mak an erse of it like he did in the US open

I've had a few old bikes in my time...................

Whilst wishing all me hearties aboard HMS Sneck good luck for the coming voyages,I'm sorry to inform you that the newly refortified Discovery will prove too strong during this campaign,with much more firepower than in previous campaigns and more ballast in the mid regions i forsee many arduos but ultimately victorios skirmishes.Once the Discovery has cleared these treacherous and troubled waters i will, in future campaigns, be happy to swell Sneck crew numbers in the grog shops whilst not away on active service (with apologies to those that find it cringeworthy , feel free to ignore and move on)

;) Thats the problem with using P & B as your referance for fitba rumours :(

Looks like they had a decent squad down.Glad they turned round what was potentialy a very embaressing scorline for Scottish football

Affy, Affy, sad RIP.

Ken it's no trendy to say, but eh never got the Rolling Stones!! affy lot oh shooting and banging,no to meh taste

Yes ya were!!!! ,noo let Scotty and Donald get on wi the joab that none of us would touch wi a barge pole ya shect stirring fifer ya

Bon Jovi Slippery when wet

Me an wee heilan have been on about this every round. While he has done great , we reckon he could have worn his opponents down earlier playing shots that seemed obvious to us to make his opponent work harder,rather than keep rallies going waiting for an error or chance of a killer shot .Anyway big well done Andy, a grand slams no far away

I like the old singalongs ma self "She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes"

Mrs HD sez she can recomend a good optician Buffy,nice to meet ya, by the way ya scrub up no bad yersel Fifers and Dundonians being nice to each other! whatever next

Embarresing result for Motherwell and Scottish football in general,surely any SPL team should be able to get past an amatuer Welsh league team (and thats not meant with any disrespect to the amatuers) Good to meet you the other night Gringo

Ivano and Dario were joint management team installed by the Marrs to bring in european talent in an attempt to build a team capable of challenging the OF.They based thier business model on Real Mallorca with the intention of bringing in european talent and selling on at a profit.It worked with a few, Cannigia being the main financial sucess but Bosman ruling floored the viability of the project.De Stefano was a totally different kettle of fish who came in during latter part of the Marrs tenure when i reckon they were getting kinda desperate financially, he had a lot of talk but little of substance (wanting to sign George Best was one of his more ludicross suggestions!)

Due to the Setanta collape most SPL sides are not in a position currently to spend money,Craig La vain was on telly the other night saying he would love to have signed Griffiths but no funds were available and Hearts had also bid for him but he turned them down as he is a hibbee.Thankfully he signed before they got the big bucks from Burnley for Fletcher Johnboy, if we get Harkins from Partick today, i'll put ICT above them in my listing You type a lot quicker than me RIG
