Being there

1087

I’m sure many of you will remember the home game against Dundee in April 2001. We needed a win to be able to secure the title the following week, at home, against St Mirren. After the game Martin O’Neill sounded irritated at the anxiety in the crowd, oblivious to the fact that the loss of a late goal would have denied many of us the opportunity to be there when the title was won.

If you’ve been there for the highs (Aberdeen) and lows (Kilmarnock) of the league season you’ve earned a ticket to the party. Let’s hope the SPL deliver a home game next, as reported.

Apologies for the extended downtime yesterday. Plans are afoot for five new servers to load-balance CQN (which sounds a lot right now but we’ve had similar thoughts before).

Let the record show that the death of Margaret Thatcher brought CQN down longer than when Rangers did the decent thing. Was hearing the news a ‘JFK moment’? I was in the wee room at the time, a treat for all the senses, so I’m not sure how my memory will handle the situation…. mostly audio.

  1. Am I correct in thinking that Frankie ‘Bhoy’ Macca tore the pash from the huns live on air last night on SSB?

     

     

    I hear he was laughing!

     

     

    What did he say?

     

     

    HH!!

  2. Interesting night shift for once.

     

     

    Peter Smith done Charlie up like a kipper! Good job!

     

     

    Call me cynical though. But why has it taken this long? Why have STV turned on Green? Why has Ally turned on Green? Why has Whyte popped his eyes above the parapet? Why are the sun going after Sevco?

     

     

    This is all part of the sting guys! Don’t rejoice too long!

     

     

    The plan has worked a treat so far and will continue to until Sevco are restored into pride of place!

     

     

    It is funny to watch but they have been so good at taking embarrassment on the chain and then blue washing it from their history a few weeks later. Don’t kid yourselfs on that this is not all part of their Masonic plan.

    Not sure but there’s bound to be more ‘revelations’ today concerning the goings-on down at that asbestos-infested midden!

     

     

    HH!!

  4. Morning all. Pretty grey down here so far but there is always the latest shenanigans from thon deid team to brighten the day.

     

     

    Two items on Radio Scotland caught my attention this morning. (1) Chick Young was tying himself in knots to tell us that he knows that he (and us) doesn’t know things that Super Ally does know and that he will spill the beans about if he is shown the door in Govan. (2) There seems to be collusion between the SFA and the SFL to ensure that the SFL clubs don’t have the necessary information to make a proper decision in voting for league reconstruction.

    re recent excessive Death Star scrofularity, even by their own scrofulous standards, one response leaps to mind-

     

     

    WHAT LARKS, PIP, WHAT LARKS!

  6. Parkhead, Walter is feted by the MSM but has no financial clout as he is just in it to lend credibilty (haha) and to make money from his beloved barstewards. It has to be Murray. It’s his plan which we are seeing played out. IMO

  7. tallybhoy- The good thing about listening to itunes podcast of SSB is the 2x speed- you can zip through all the pash (90% of the show) and also hear BFDJ on double helium.

  8. Lies deciet contradiction cheating theft ! A new blockbuster SERVCONIA coming to a place near YOU ! Pass the popcorn ! Ps Please do not take any advice from a porn star as you may be liable to some form of shafting oooofffffttttt! !

  9. I think it’s Park and a few others.

     

     

    Don’t think minty will be back as the saviour, behind the scenes possibly, he will be controling what is going down with the msm.

  10. MWD

     

     

    Can’t see Murray returning as the prodigal hun. He’s been exposed as a liar and con man in this entire web of deceit.

     

     

    It would be lunacy for him to become embroiled in it all again and risk greater scrutiny.

    Agreed.

     

     

    More likely to be Park or McColl.

    YES.

     

    As I said at the time,

     

    Five years unsuccessfully trying to flog Rangers.

     

    Plan B : Whyte,the fall guy(who`s in on the scam,allegedly),the patsy,the duper.

     

    Tangled web?

  13. Haven’t been on much so re the death of Thatcher.

     

     

    I despised the woman and believe that many of contemporary societies ills were germinated in her social policies of the ’80’s.

     

     

    However, I cannot in good conscience glorify her death.

     

     

    She’s now being judged by a far greater power than me.

  14. McColl has been waiting in the wings for quite some time I believe.

     

     

    I expect him to make an appearance some time soon.

     

     

    HH!!

  15. DBBIA

     

     

    Agreed, now to Google scrofulous!

     

     

    Ernie

     

     

    At a superficial level I’m not convinced that Park has the finances.

     

     

    McColl could be a different matter.

  16. Ernie, Park or McColl?

     

     

    They might have the cash but they DON’T have the media.

     

     

    Someone else owns that and they (MSM) need to be kept onside.

     

     

    Minty has to be part of it. IMO

  17. Ernie

     

     

    I listened to Devine on Radio Scotland the other day. He gave a very good analysis of her tenure and the repercussions.

     

     

    Off to decorate shortly so will read that later.

    If they instruct Media House, they have the media.

    Was listening to shortbread last night.

     

    Host was summing up and asked the panel if that was the end of reconstruction for now, and was spl2 possible. One of the panel said the SFL clubs would go for it in a minute.

     

    This is just the latest cunning plan to “save sevco” and it wouldn’t surprise me if the SFA tried to push some variation of this through after the 12-12-18 proposition fails.

     

    I seem to remember Regan saying if the SPL and SFL couldn’t agree, then the SFA would have the final say.

     

    We all know their track record for assisting thems.

     

    Looks like it could come down to fan power. Again

  20. MWD & Parkheadcumsalford and this talk of a Mephistophelean/masonic plot …

     

     

    Relax, ghuys: this crop of Scottish masons is utterly incapable of hatching such a convoluted plan: cf. their shambolic attempt to shoe-horn Sevco straight into the SPL.

     

     

    The natural level for the masonic jokers trying to run football in this country is the golf club/bowling club committee.

     

     

    Mercifully, their days are numbered; and we are blessed as the generation able to witness their passing …

    Has Kenny Clark came out yet to defend Craigy for his 5 star performance last night

     

     

    Anybody an expert on RTI yet?

  22. Marrakesh Express on

    As bad its been for them, it seems the worst has still to come. The fact that its all been self inflicted makes it all the sweeter. I cant help thinking that they are paying for past sins, not just the latest scandal, but 100 odd years of unrivalled arrogance and rampant bigotry.

     

    There is a God.

    Ernie, Park or McColl?

    As soon as someone says they are the saviour of Sevco they will have the MSM poodles on side.

    To be honest, I think they are on to plan M. We can’t be far from “pretty please with sugar on it”

  26. Dontbrattbakkinanger on

    I have a technical question for the ole CQN brains trust:

     

     

    the ole dishwasher is currently in a sevco like state, and a new one is arriving this wekend

     

     

    It’s integrated with the rest of the kitchen units, what’s the best way to remove it without risking the wrath of the ole Sweetheart?

  27. A bit freaked out last night when the TV froze during the news with with Maggie Thatchers face on the screen. Her imperious features wouldnt go away even when I switched the box off and on. Spooky.
