Derek Adams propensity to waste time and then complain about time being added on should not obscure the fact that he is a remarkably productive football manager. Ross County, from Dingwall, population 5,000, are sitting fourth in the SPL and remain in touching distance of a place in Europe. No need to highlight their Scottish Cup campaign in 2010.
It is, therefore, no surprise that Aberdeen have asked Ross County for permission to speak to him. On the face of it, Aberdeen should fancy their chances of recruiting Adams but County are confident for a reason. SPL, and in Owen Coyle’s case First Division, managers have been recruited by well-paying English clubs at levels the likes of Aberdeen cannot compete with. County chairman, Roy McGregor, is likely to advise Adams to hold off for a more lucrative move south.
When Jimmy Calderwood left Dunfermline for Aberdeen in 2004 chairmen John Yorkston explained his surprise at Calderwood heading north, explaining that he believed one day Calderwood would move to Ibrox. Aberdeen proved to be a plateau for Calderwood, as it has been for most over the last couple of decades.
If they don’t get Adams chances are they will go back to Motherwell; back-to-back second place finishes are exactly what is needed at Pittodrie right now.
Best of luck to Gordon Strachan on his first competitive game as Scotland manager tonight.

You a yank now?

That’s not the Bill Miller that tried to buy Sevco is it?
The Lonesome Boatman
Luv yer posts Mags
And yer music.
You are like a breath of fresh air which is hard to come by in polluted Escocia.
Not that I am there.
Song For Sevco.
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn’t you?
People’d call, say, “Beware doll, you’re bound to fall”
You thought they were all kiddin’ you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin’ out
Now you don’t talk so loud
Now you don’t seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
You’ve gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you find out you’re gonna have to get used to it
You said you’d never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but know you realize
He’s not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say do you want to make a deal?
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all come down and did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain’t no good
You shouldn’t let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain’t it hard when you discover that
He really wasn’t where it’s at
After he took from you everything he could steal.
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They’re drinkin’, thinkin’ that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But you’d better lift your diamond ring, you’d better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can’t refuse
When you ain’t got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You’re invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Intested to know why you think ‘financial basket case’
Are we not that way just now and helpless to do anything about it due to English tory government looking after their own.
Get independence and vote for a non SNP rule decided by Scotland has always been my shout.

it’s nice to see the more religious fundamentalists on a cfc fan forum fall in favour with the line that “scotland says NO!” in september 2014
not that i would say they had anything in common with some other famous fundamentalists living in some nearby country
The point hasn’t been lost on me. But thank you for giving me a laugh out loud moment. :D
It’s sad to see though that some people are so preoccupied with religion that they’ll flat out lie to damage reputations.
I think it’s best summed up with a Disposable Heroes of Hiphiprisy lyric (song is Television The Drug Of The Nation) –
It’s the perpetuation of the two party system
Where image takes precedence over wisdom
Where sound bite politics are served to
The fastfood culture
Where straight teeth in your mouth
Are more important than the words
That come out of it
Race baiting is the way to get selected
Willie Horton or
Will he not get elected on…
Good grief – I love my quotes. :)

my favourite of that kind was the simpsons episode where the two aliens abducted bob dole and bill clinton,. Initially the two aliens in their guises compliment each other’s policies but its only homer who suspects malpractice. the day before the election, their cover’s blown and a voter at the back shouts “let’s all get behind a 3rd candidate” to which both aliens chant “hehehe, go on, throw your vote away” immediately tapping into voter apathy and cynicism.
But don’t get me wrong

I’ve just sat with young acgr and watched the Cletic v Barcelona game again. What a special moment in time, Wow,…….. Wow,……………..Wow as the diddy english commentator said.
Guess which one of us had a tear in his eye at the end. Young acgr fetched me a tissue.
What a wonderful night.
We Are Celtic.

SNP disintegrated into fractions of left and right party discipline collapsed and by start of 2nd world war had ceased to be a coherent force
Clear winners in troubled years were the unionists who enjoyed undisputed supremacy in Scotland politics until 1945 in part because of the fracturing of the Labour and nationalist opponents
Unionists worked hard to consolidate their hegemony, Labour was portrayed as a party of revolutionaries who would threaten savings, pensions and investments with programmes of nationalisation ( Labour ditched all its revolutionaries and became new labour)

The Simpsons and Family Guy have been a constant source of acerbic political comment over the years. To manage it with humour too is an excellent skill. I think also that it’s getting through, at least to an extent – the whole “we are the 99%” demonstrated that. Will it ever get into the mainstream? I hope so.
Anyway, I’m off to bed. Need my beauty sleep. :D
Have a grand evening. :)

Ive watched it three times now, a sheer magical night. Every single second of it is 100% Celtic magic and concentration and intensity both on and off the park, the whole game is quite moving.
Probably the most romantic game ever played, we beat the greatest team in history on outr 125th Birthday, it was written in the stars.
Pure Celtic magic.

I just watched the 2 games where Juventus gubbed us 5-0. Am I a masochist or what? Tee hee.

We had a lot of possession and had big crowds, it was a success?
I need to watch them again, did well but were punished for the slightest mistakes and the manager wore a daft scarf.
