I'm delighted. Get the chance to give/get abuse from pupils and staff, and have a walk home instead of the usual trains/bus/car.

I have a wedding reception in Glasgow on the evening of Nov 3, so was thinking of going to Ibrox first before heading back into Glasgow City Center. How much would a seat be on the bus? Rather get a supporters bus, than get the train down from Aberdeen picking up unwashed huns at every stop :023:

Since we fly out on the Monday, we'll also be taking in the Hampden experience on the Sunday. Just think, I will be standing on the same pitch which Mikolaunas will get sent off for diving on. Might take a wee divot to France with me...

All in all i've worked out the whole week will cost me about ?300, which includes Tickets for both games, flights, hostels, buses and a guess at budget for food and drink. I move out of my rented flat on the day before Lithuania, and move into my newly bought flat on Sat 15th, so i guess i'm saving a bit of money on rent.

4 sleeps to go :crazy07: Managed to get the week off work (since going onto a supply contract), so a group of around 12 of us are going to the Lithuania game, as well as making the trip to France. Anyone else going??

I didn't realise that there was a seeding system for the next round of the League Cup, but i'll definitely take the likes of East Fife ahead of Celtic!! *that is of no disrespect to East Fife, as they did what we couldn't do against St Mirren!! Really glad of it as well!! If we can get through this next round, the Q/F could bring some much needed revenue and the possibility of a Final :clapping03: Seeded Celtic Rangers Aberdeen Hearts Kilmarnock Hibernian Falkirk Inverness CT Unseeded Dundee United Motherwell Dunfermline Athletic Gretna Dundee Hamilton Academical Partick Thistle East Fife

I know a lot of Elgin fans who go to most of the games, so will make sure they report back with how Zander is doing. I just hope the Elgin players don't take him out on the **** in Elgin :029:

Yep. Elvis is indeed from Elgin

The St Mirren fans on Pie and Bovril would have a field day if we had him and Ross Tokely in the same 11 :rolleyes02: That is if they reappear after last night's result

The radio said Lee Wilkie is playing up front :024: Heard a rumour about it on Pie and Bovril as well...

Must remind myself to use those subs earlier next time :024: ... Oh look a ladybug.

:015: I would love to know what relative said that.... :024: His discipline?!? So where does Blackie come under that category?! The only reason Zander isn't getting a game is because of his lack of experience and the fact Charlie didn't quite have the balls to put him on... There's not a problem with his conduct. Coming from an extremely reliable source. Thanks for clearing that up Zander.... Hope we'll see more of you once we are under new management.... :022: :022: The clue is in "Zander's" (*Caley*) avatar :023:

I'm just going on what I was told. There is no reason for me to lie about this, as I think Zander is one of our most talented players and would have him in the squad every week if it were down to me. P.S. It was his discipline off the field that I was referring to, not on field discipline.

I spoke to one of his relatives recently, who explained why he wasn't getting a game. I'm not going into details, but his discipline wasn't acceptable for an SPL player. In my opinion he should be playing as well, but he really needs to get himself sorted off the pitch first.

Roy for me. Doesn't do anything in 90 mins to merit a regular slot in the first eleven. Everyone goes on about how "solid" he is: What does that mean?? To me it means he poses no attacking threat whatsoever and is predictable. If we wanted a solid player as a left winger we could play a defender there surely?? You'd think by now he's had plenty of time to learn how to use his right foot as well :024: Not in a good mood this morning, so Roy's getting the brunt of it.

According to a Montrose fan I know, Wood was fantastic last night. Excellent stuff. Was really impressed with his pre-season displays.

Imagine him without hair and three years older, and you'll see its him. Then again look at the picture on the official website. Im confused The one on the ICT official website is 100% him.

I've played against him between the ages of 11 and 15, and the boy is absolute class :021: After he moved to Chelsea, I've always kept tabs on his progress, so I could say "I've played against him". Great signing. Aberdeen wanted him as well, my wee mole is telling me...

I saw the last 10/15 mins of the Elgin game yesterday, but Garry Wood never saw much of the ball. Various folk I spoke to said he was looking good though

Russel Duncan and McBain :020: Goals galore from them no doubt (hope they prove me wrong) Quite glad Cowie is starting. A game for the super subs perhaps?

I've also got a ICT poster in my classroom. Trying my best to influence the Aberdonian kids not to support their local team :015:

And here's me thinking Roy McBain would get dropped after saturday :023: Ah well, the likes of Zander and Markus better bring a blanket to make themselves comfy on the bench. Back to the norm of last season :tic01:

Motherwell v Raith Rovers Queen's Park v Hibernian Dundee v Livingston Peterhead v Kilmarnock Dundee United v Ross County Montrose v Falkirk Gretna v Cowdenbeath Stirling Albion v Hearts St. Mirren v East Fife Berwick Rangers v Hamilton Academical Inverness Cal. Th. v Arbroath Partick Thistle v St. Johnstone

... lets cross that bridge when we come to it. Hopefully we don't get Peterhead in the draw!!

Gretna :023:
