If anyone has good Dad-present ideas, please let me know - its impossible to get my dad something! He doesn't like DVDs because he doesn't see the point of watching the same film twice ?(, CDs are a no-go because when I asked what music he's into at the moment I got a 'hmmm, da ken, bit o athin really'. He doesn't really drink in the house, so a nice bottle of something would be a bit of a waste. Bah. Help!

Buy him some Just For Men now, and by Christmas he'll need MORE TIES!

That mystic octopus can fuck my boots.

He's not fit to lace them.

I like this prospect lots.

People stopped picking me up when I got fat... Lesson here:

Kerb crawlers won't pay for fatties.

Meh, if you go down to ten men after 5 minutes, you're very likely to lose. Hard to judge how the sides match up as a result. Thought City played really well with the ten men until the second went in. Seems we can't have the ref on our side every week

Great penalty save from big Joe. Get that up you, Big Joe with your anti-City tendencies...

PSV-Feyenoord is on ESPN just now. 82 mins gone.

9-0 PSV.

Hmm, quite pleased I put on a half-time bet there would be more goals in the second half than in the first in the Old Firm game. Jackpot.

Now, if Davie Silva hits the woodwork later on...

EDIT: Incidentally, how bad is Fraser Forster's kicking?

Ahem...

Portsmouth are FUCKED.

Alot of reasonable players will become free agents. The Nuge. Kanu. SONKO. Kitson. John Ut... no. Not him.

Kanu can still hack it though. He's better than Adebayor.

It must be a cancellation of all teams' results v. Portsmouth I'm guessing...

Christ knows what happens with relegation and promotion at the end of the season though ?(

So what happens now? One less game for everyone or does a League 1 team apply for a position?

Think the Pompey administrator is trying to force Gaydamak's hand with this announcement. Gaydamak wants some sort of return, so liquidation isn't to his benefit.

Nev - the voice of reason

Typical fiery derby at LP this afternoon, ruined in part by a shocking referee who let the Smokies away with murder. Jonathan Crawford took a very nasty looking challenge, one of the worst I've seen in a while.

Is big JC at the Mo now?

I'm getting hornby just thinking about it...

Jesus Christ. Fuck you, min. Fuck you.

(I enjoyed this pun)

I'd expect the trendies to piss off somewhere else once Brewdog is no longer new...

Watching the Brizzle City/QPR game. What is the deal with Steadinho? So bad and yet so good at the same time!

Thanks Craig, I knew you'd have a nice, balanced view on my entirely fair opinion based on my entirely fair opinion of something completely unrelated. I take it you think the "dirty bastards" were "cheating" then?

Howard landed awkwardly claiming a cross at the end of the first half, under pressure from Kyle. McGhee said he could only see out one eye, which makes you wonder why he played the first ten mins of the second half - during which the goal was scored...

Be interested to hear what the fans thought of the game. Was getting frustated texts from my mate moaning about Hearts "cheating" and Kyle in particular. It was a physical affair and there were a few incidents where something came of nothing, but I think "cheating" is a little OTT.

Kyle I thought led the line really well for Hearts. Sure, he was physical, but not overly so. Guaranteed if Kyle had been playing for Aberdeen, the fans would have been absolutely loving the shift he put in.

Funny enough, as I type this I'm watching BBC Alba, and he was just booked for persistent fouling and speaking to Rory McArdle. Wonder if that's when he claims McArdle told him he'd been physical but fair?

EDIT: Oh aye, look out for Kyle's comments in the papers tomorrow. Diplomacy is not in his vocabulary.

Is this the stalking thread or the "I'm so cool I was in brewdog" thread?

Me and woodsinho claim Dave Officer and idol wild stalking lucky Rathen

Aye, there's a provision for special dispensation to be granted for a player's registration to be transferred outwith the transfer windows should he be released as a result of his club going into administration.

No probs sir. Drop me a txt.

I built my own PC last year. Piece of cake.

Can't really contribute in terms of places that would do it, though Graham Knight comes highly recommended. Pretty sure Grumpian 'Lectronics are still on the go as well.

They've got some wines, but no spirits that I could see - unless you count TNP or Sink the Bismarck at 5/nip...

The ball hit the underside of his arm, which wasn't moving away from the ball, inside of the box. How is that not a pentalty?

Why should the arm be moving away from the ball? The motion of the arm doesn't decide what is and isn't a penalty. Like I say, it's one of those that is given maybe 2 times from 10 at the most. It's certainly not deliberate handball, and he's not seeking to gain an advantage by turning his back on it...

Anyone hear Levein moaning about the penalty given last night?

Fuck off, it was a stonewaller. This guy is beginning to get on my tits.

Stonewaller? No fucking chance. Christ, I know a penalty when I see one, and it took me about 45 seconds to realise it had been given. Had turned away in anticipation of the corner, and wondered why the hell was taking so long...

Eight times out of ten, that's not a penalty. 1.5 times out of ten it's a penalty because the referee is shit. 0.5 times out of ten, it's a penalty because he's a biased fuckwit.

He was shit

I'm not sure I see your point, Kirsten

Point taken.

Not by you, surely? I expected better of a man of authority...
