I'm down in Roslin Street, so not too far from the exchange.

Finally got through to them.... my internet was at 0.3 Mb/s for downloads..... shite.

They reset something and it ramped up to 6.0Mb/s.... for a whole day.

Now back to the same shite.

My landline is always crackly as hell when I use it too.... I suspect a problem with the line?

I wish I had my work connection:

He's apparently a really shy guy. Give the poor lad a break.

Mine is getting pretty much unusable. Trying to get them to sort it out is a pain too. Swines.

Mine has been dire the past few weeks. REALLY slow, almost like dial up. Keeps cutting out all the time too.

I think I'm on the Denburn exchange. Dismal.

Anyone else been having problems recently or am I the lucky one?

I'm not blaming the fans entirely, although I accept I sound like it....but I do think we're harder on our team than most, and I think the evidence shows it's utterly counter-productive.

Every single club in the world get pelters from their fans. Aberdeen FC are no different. People pay their money they have every right to complain.

The problem with AFC is that Stewart Milne came along and pissed away millions of pounds on shite players/managers in order to try and keep up with old firm (Paul Bernard, Brian O'Neil, Tzanko Tvetanov, Alex Miller et al anyone?).

He got us into crippling debt and now we are in a vicious cycle and can't get out of said debt. Dick Donald would be spinning in his grave.

The singles party footage was hilarious.

And yes, I agree, very well made film. Totally captivating. I didn't lose interest at all throughout.

Went to see this in the Belmont.

Thought it was a great watch and very interesting.

And I'm not really a massive Pearl Jam fan.

The board at AFC are a disgrace. Nothing will change while there is no change at the top.The same thing will happen to every manager.

Brown may have signed some good players, but they are all central midfielders.

Added to that half the team are playing out of position.

Our defence is so slow and we still have no full backs. We have no wingers. We have an array of shit strikers.

It was obvious which areas needed strengthened and it hasn't been done. No brainer.

That is going to be about the standard attendance at Pittodrie this season. Sad.

I remember cup games against lower league teams when I was younger you'd still get over 10k.

Aberdeen are getting relegated this season.

Craig Brown has made an utter erse of the close season, signed mince and the lack of creativity and width is coming back to bite us.

What's that now, 2 wins in 16 or 17 I think.... dismal.

Well done East Fife though.

I have one but very rarely use it.

Got takeaway from Chao Phraya last week.

Can't say I was overly impressed, pretty bland stuff to be honest. Maybe I got them on a bad night. Really greasy too.

He certainly looks a little more 'portly' by season 3.

No wonder, fat bastard.

Last weekend I went to the ice cream place from the Philly episode. He didn't do a challenge there, it was one of the places he visits before the showdown. It was awesome. I've made it my mission to go to as many of the places in the show as possible. Been to the Curry house from the new york episode and going to the gravy sandwich place in Brooklyn next week. This is how sad I am: I tried to get off work to go see the filming of the Harlem episode. Had too much work on so couldn't go though. All I want is to be able to cheer on a man eating 10 kilos of animal! I also want to start going to the places from Diners, Drive-ins and Dives too but they are all in backwater towns and I don't have a car so it'll be a bit hard.

Have only been to Katz Diner in NYC. They also need to make new Man V Food, seen them all too many times now. He needs to do a European series or something different.

Triple D is the business. Watch it every night. I do wonder if they ever eat anything they hate though? Everything is always 'money', 'rockstar' and there is ALWAYS a 'kicker' to every dish.

Indeed, I mean really.... what is the bloody point????

Just so fucking annoying.

I was parked for less than an hour outside the Sports Village for a game of football.

I'd love to have caught them in the act.

Then beaten them to death with my football boots, although golf shoes would probably be better.

I got 7 live Pixies double CDs this week for £20!

Bargain.

Also:

Stone Temple Pilots: Core

Stone Temple Pilots: Tiny Music... Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop

Stone Temple Pilots: Purple

MC Lars: Lars Attacks

But Hockey games are universally awesome.

At least they were back when I played video games. I hope they haven't moved on to actually being about hockey rather than fighting and pushing people through glass windows.

NHL on Megadrive. I spent DAYS on that in uni.

Anyone know any good places in the area to repair scratches on car bodywork?

Some utter cunt keyed right down the side of mine.

Too deep for t-cut to help........

But at least Scott Brown has a bit of cheek in him and a bit of banter, Naismith is just a horrible little person!

Both minks.

Seems to work.... good man!

Anyone got a presale link for their Glasgow gig in November yet?

Going to be away tomorrow so would be good to snap up tickets today.

That's more like it.... tickets will be purchased asap.

McFadden is exactly the type of player we need, sadly will never happen

Lets hope Peter Pawletts glass body holds up for the season.

I think we can get into the top six with the existing squad. A good run of form in the post international break

Hopefully the players will be getting put through their paces during the international break as some of them look woefully unfit. Clark and Mawene in particular seem to be struggling.

The lack of depth in the squad is pretty grim, a few injuries and we are in the shit.

Arnason and Osbourne look the part though.

Hibs next weekend is a biggie!

Where is the Michael Paton is leaving on a free coming from?

It's been all over the web today.

Apparently the Dons aren't signing anyone.

If this is true, we are going down.

yeah i should make myself clear, this is not a dig really at dons fans, its just the way things are for our club, i didnt mean what i said to come across as me looking down on those who dont go or anything like that.

Not in the slightest! It didn't come across like that

This weekend is as good a chance as the Dons have had in while to get something at Ibrox, can't see it happening though.
