  1. Okay, I'll bite. John Rankin? From 3:46
  2. It might sound daft, but it's pretty much true (unless it was loaded into a dumper and carted away). Even after some serious thawing last night and today, there are still 10-foot high mounds in the streets outside. With still no sign of activity from the council, these were created by the groundsman, so he hasn't been entirely unproductive. It's been bad enough here that I've been using my wife's car for nearly a fortnight, because I can't get mine past the first 100 yards from the lockup.
  3. The way things stand, we could be again this time next year!
  4. Your best and worst matchday experience questions both say "best". Maybe standards of policing and stewarding should be separate questions.
  5. I've heard from a reliable source that a decision regarding ICT v Rangers will almost certainly be made by 12:45 on Saturday.
  6. Anyone know what the 918 stands for and just out of curiosity is a union jack flag allowed in. 918
  7. http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/ For XP 32-bit, Vista or Windows 7 32-bit or 64-bit. I have Sophos Endpoint on my laptop, so don't use it, but I've put it on other machines and it seems fine.
  8. I use Chrome all the time on my laptop (and Safari on my phone), and have never had a problem.
  9. I really couldn't care less. Why do these American type sports always have teams which have a double barrelled name? The first tends to be the place they come from and the second is usually some kind of silly vaguely "aggressive" sounding word like Tigers, Blitz, Pirates etc etc. That actually makes "Capitals" sound relatively sensible, if somewhat cheesy. Roll on the "world series"... which usually just involves the Yanks. You haven't seen cheesy untill you've seen this video... this will make your blood boil Charlie! http://www.youtube.c...h?v=utsHE5xWges Sadly, I've seen that video before. It encompasses everything that's fake about the whole American Football thing.
  10. You would need to let him know as soon as the game kicked off to give him time to get up from Essex.
  11. Is there any chance this might be called off because of a frozen pitch?
  12. Someone in a shop told me today that he's definitely not interested, and he should know because he is a butcher.
  13. That's madness! In fact it may be in breach of the Sanity Clause.
  14. Snow clearance was in progress at Dens Park this afternoon - street closed and footballs being thrown/kicked up at the roof of the main stand in an attempt to dislodge the build-up of snow and icicles hanging off the edge. Needless to say they weren't making very fast progress, as the accuracy wasn't up to much.
  15. I know I'm indulging a bit in numerical pedantry here, but I'm wondering why something which is measured in "games per goal" should be called "strike rate" because surely the higher the number of games it takes for each goal, the lower the strike rate is? I would tend to express something which implies a rate of scoring in terms of goals per game (eg 0.453) - or if you multiply by 100 (45.3), that gives the average percentage of games in which a goal was scored (which isn't the same as games per goal and indeed is the reciprocal of it). Scotty's figures are correct. Strike Rate is not measured in games per goal. The strike rate as a percentage is shown first, then the reciprocal, which is games per goal, is shown in brackets.
  16. Good, I was forced to buy a hat over the phone this morning after I accidentally cut my hair too short last night. [Tip: when using electric hair clippers, always leave your glasses on until you've checked which guard you're using, otherwise you might use 3mm instead of 3/8"].
  17. We wants it, we needs it. Must have the precious. They stole it from us.
  18. I tell ye, it was the priest that told me to pray like this.
  19. Why would seeing the e-mail make them want to support the referees?
  20. According to STV a few minutes ago, Dallas has "left his job". The link on their website is currently dead, so either they haven't put the article up yet, or they've jumped the gun and taken it down again. They now have a full article here, but there's still no other confirmation.
  21. OK thanks, I hadn't realised there was an option.
