Right now our former captain, Paul Lambert, is one of the hottest tickets in football management so it’s no surprised that Norwich City have been unable to hold onto him. Inside three years he transformed the club from one that lost 1-7 to Colchester United (then managed by Paul) to one of the most improved teams in Europe, earning two consecutive promotions and a mid-table finish in the FA Premier League.
If Lambert ended up at Liverpool, or even Chelsea, you would not have been surprised. Instead, he’s set to go to Aston Villa. During their Martin O’Neill era Villa splurged cash they ultimately realised they couldn’t afford. Martin walked out days before the start of the season in August 2010. Since then they pitched Gerard Houllier at the job before poaching Alex McLeish from relegated city rivals Birmingham.
In short, Villa looks like a club without the vision to build stable progress. Unlike Norwich, who seem to know exactly what they are doing. They even coped with the loss of Neil Doncaster, who left the club a few months before the arrival of Lambert.
Norwich City is the better job.
I’m on Radio Scotland with Jim Spence around 16:15 today, talking about social media and football, square sliced, the price of milk and lawn care.

halfway up the hill was the Port Hibs, pub at the station was The Star hotel.
Not many can say they enjoyed a pint in both establishments from out of town.
well seen you were with Duke.
=============
Haha that’s the places all right. Used to drop him off at the Hibs and pick him up at the Star! I’m not 100% we have the same guy though as he never mentioned brothers. But the guy I’m taliking about was definetely heavy-duty and well-known in every pub we went into.

I cannot thank you enough for that post. It certainly sets the record straight.
Hopefully The BBC has been made aware of the same information that you have outlined here.
It seems now that it was disgracefully biased of a t.v. channel that likes to think it speaks to and of a nation to broadcast such a shallow and one-sided ‘documentary’.
I should’ve known better……but that is the insidious power of t.v. brainwashing for you.
Again,I thank you.

Alexander McPhee= Duke= The fat George Clooney
Can you remember any of his friends names?
Pretty sure its the right guy, not many Dukes in the Port.

Larsson and McStay
Thank you. Samaras will play against Lukasz Piszczek on his side. Piszczek is one of the best right defenders in the world, IMO. I would bet Greece is not going to score the goal against us. If we score, we are going to win it.
“Indeed, aside from Celtic, some followers of SPL clubs might be more likely to buy season tickets because they weren’t going to be treated to visits by Rangers.”
has this been awe naw’d :oD
Bambi.
we need to stop . we just positivly identified Duke.
this might be a double bluff from Partizan , who might be holding him in custody.
for questioning
That article by Spiers….how I loathe that mealymouthed goat and his trumpeting any old tripe on behalf of his beloved Satan F.C.
He twists and spins like a snake in the heat to please anyone who pays him and snide his way around anyone talking to him depending on what he thinks they want him to say. A craven,vain,preening arrogant spider of a man.
He makes me boak.
No wonder that even the orcs despise him.
A pariah.
Is it true that Billy Reid shot dead Robert Curtis of the British Army and then lost his life in a gun battle in Academy St,near CURTIS St?
off to bed.
last Duke story.
we were at tannadice, december one year , really freezing cold. i was driving.
youngest brother and spanish brother in law in car.
we won 2-1 on a bitterly cold night.
outside after the game, bumped into a very very drunk duke.
cant find my bus, need a lift home, life saver wee man.
bundled him in car and heade down the road,
had to stop for petrol at the station just south of perth.
came back out and brother said dukes away in the shop,
sat for 10 minutes, then went looking for him , no sign,
waited another 10, lapped the station, looked in the toilets, asked if anyone had seen him. nope.
gave up went home.
many months later, met duke.
w t f happened to you that night at tannadice ?
dont know what your talking about i was on the hibs bus, was never in your car.
Off now, sober to bed, another hard day of graft in the garden beckons tomorrow.
Good night and God bless.
Hail Hail
Palacio and StStivs
Must be same guy. I met him in Cumbria a few years ago. His boys were in Morecambe.
He was good to me, and in return I drove him to the Port a few times. As St Stivs said it was the Port Hibs I would drop him off and The Star Id pick him up at a couple of days later.
He told me a good few stories about the Port. “The Colours” for one.
But he was obviously keeping a low profile. Our visits to the Port were always short.
And as for few people drinking in the Hibs and the Star, should I have said I was from Paisley?? :)))

In case I did understand your post properly.
BBC did not lie in my opinion. They have shown one side of the story. They should show the context, tell more where the pictures were taken, when etc.
This is like going today along dark streets of London , do the filn and tell the world : don’t go to London to watch Olympic games. Question: Could people in Poland be enough scared and decide not going to London?
I hope BBC is going to show these parts of London to the whole world before the games start.
Miki
In case I did understand your post incorrectly, of course.
Goodnight to all Tims throughout the world

BBC shown iditios from LKS Lodz.
Lodz have MP who is black, immigrant from Africa ( Ghana ?). He is protestant pastor. He was second best elected. All in the city with the stadium od hate in Catholic country. Are people from Lodz racists?
Said on here before
Everytime I see or hear britney I get the picture in my head of the snake, KA. in the Jungle Book movie
“>>.trusssssssssssssst in me, jusssssssssssssst trusssssssssssssssssssssssst in me…”
Gie’s me the boak as well, he is such a phoney
Someday You guys will understand what Sconny Bottlaand is all about.It´s all about a deep in built hatred against anything which is non concurrent with their views & if you have the impunity to disagree with them then the only way they know how to re-act is with their violence
Timbhoy in spain….saying you lived in crawley,did you ever watch crawley town fc….a friend of mine used to play for them known as “eddie mcmullen” havent seen him for years….last i heard he was their chairman…dont know if its true
Eddie was ori ginally from coatbridge
Catching up on RTC
“can Hawkeye not come up with touchline technology that bleeps when an illegally registered Ranges player comes on?”
topkat
One of my sisters married into a family from Coatbridge, The Kellys
Her husband is John, he has brothers, Peter and James and they all do a bit of singing
Ever came across this family?
Watched the pamarama program about racist in Poland and Ukraine
You could do a similar program for comenwealth games and how Catholics should take care in Glasgow
ST
You could, but it won’t be made by STV or BBC Scottyland :-)
From the DR Jan 2014: Ranjurz take Hawkeye to Court of Session, it wisnae in!
On the Panorama program, nazi salutes at football matches, er now where have I seen that before?
Yeh nazi salutes, racist banners, knife attacks and murders on a race within a country
I could have saved the BBC a fortune on travel costs and bought them a one way flight to Glasgow instead of poland and Ukraine to film their program
Total joke they turn a blind eye to what happens in Glasgow to Catholics and then film this
ST
Och I’m about to launch into debate, but…..

Scotsman article is just a re-hash of the analysis from rangerstaxcase, CQN and the like. But now however reluctantly it’s in the mainstream.
Die ya Hun
Scotsman article is full of shite like ‘our analysis’.
Our posters on here and RTC spoon-fed them many months ago.
Auldheid. The victory is yours.
I’ll not go on. Auldheid, when you go up to recieve RTC’s Orwell Prize, we’ll all be way ye.
And Im not sayin Auldheid is RTC. Far from it as Im sure both would want to say.
Just Auldheid is a respected poster from here who has stood his ground. And been proved right. Many others deserve the same respect.
It’s the bampots, 54 tae 0, to steal another posters GIRFUY
So I’ve not posted in months, and suddenly the night-shift vanishes? Where’s Petec?
The Masons have goat him. MAGGIE, they’ve goat him!
And just as a wee aside, I advocated, as others did, that Celtic could propose a much more equitable distribution of SPL prize monies.
I know we can look back at the television deal years ago and say that the other clubs fecked the TV rights. But lets look at where we are. Forget the bollocks about 4 ‘old-firm’ games. No such clause ever existed.
I don’t always agree with Paul67. I suppose that’s the beauty of CQN. But many months ago he said,
“Whatever part of my club is dependant on Rangers(IA) I am willing to give up.”
C’mon. I’m used to talking to myself at home.
But I’m on for nine-in-a-row here!
Please spare me!!
So you buggers are all somewhere else,
Talking about the weather in East Kilbride,
Leavin’ me to talk all all alone
‘Bout Auldheid and RTC
Laughin with the conspiracy
the c-o-n-s-p-i-r-a-c-y!
