    The problem with fraud and other financial crimes is proving guilt. Someone can look as guilty as Hell and everyone knows exactly what they've been up to (ie no good) but proving it in a court of law is another matter entirely.
  2. I'll raise you this one...
  3. I'm already booked into a padded cell for the match, so no worries on that front.
  4. But we're not just any old football club. Teams raise their game to play us and our support demands success, so accepting mediocrity will only end in another sacking. I'm not saying Murty is mediocre but I think we need more time to make a sensible judgement.
  5. I'm waiting for him to have a good game against the Tims before getting too excited.
  6. We haven't beaten them over 90 mins since we got demoted, so I don't see much cause for optimism. On top of that, we've done better at the Piggery than at Ibrox, where their fans and players seem to love coming. I'd like to see their allocation cut (half the Broomie) and our players give them 90 minutes of Hell.
  7. I'd say wait and see where we are at the end of the season before making a decision. If we finish second comfortably and win the Cup then yes. If not, it'd be worth considering bringing someone else in.
  8. My favourite two Scottish Cup memories are the Cup Final vs Aberdeen at the Piggery in '93 and another treble winning day with Lovenkrands' last minute winner. I think my dad and me were the last folk off the terraces that day, I didn't want to leave! My favourite Falkirk memory (albeit not in the cup) was at Brockville when Huistra scored the winner in his last game for us. Another cracking day and the pies and coins flying over no-man's land were a constant source of entertainment.
  9. I got 12. Not bad.
  10. You'd hope the medical and management teams can make the right decision. People playing down the Falkirk match are forgetting this is our main chance to win a cup.
  11. Are both Dundee clubs in financial trouble?
  12. I doubt many of us know much about individual players in Australia. Thanks for the info - he sounds decent.
  13. They can keep bringing it up as long as we keep singing TBB. That's fine by me. Who cares what the press think?
  14. The bird at the bottom right looks like she's just seen a picture of Owen Archdeacon.
  15. They really have become a caricature of extreme paranoia. Sometimes it's funny and other times, you suspect they might need to see a shrink. If we beat them next week they'll go into paranoia overdrive. Please make it happen Rangers!
  16. The Tims will find a way to blame us and the Masons for this.

    It's a bit of a daft rule that King has to make this offer. I don't blame him for sticking the finger up but I'm also unsurprised he now has to do it anyway.
  18. Ally Dawson stopped to speak to myself and the people I was with, in Bar72, before the recent Hibs match. Seemed a very decent bloke - although my dad had to point out who he was to me, as I was 2 when he captained us to a Scottish Cup victory.
  19. They are quite amusing when they board the paranoia bus. Comedy with a sprinkling of sheer stupidity, topped with a complete lack of self-awareness sauce.
  20. Today's weather is conclusive proof that God is a Presbyterian.
  21. The season we won our league back (in the 70s) we went back to black and red.
  22. The best footballers are good because of the way their brains work. Only coaching can really enhance that. I think football is too 'athletic' these days. I preferred it when there were still fat midfielders and people playing totally out of position..
  23. I get annoyed when we wear white socks at Pittodrie. And I hated the blue socks Souness brought in. Always has to be red and black socks for me.
