  1. In contrast, I asked a steward the very same question and was told it was a "sit any where" job. Good to see they have their act together. I wonder if any clubs have a strict allocated seat numbers policy and if so, how they enforce it.
  2. That'll be the world-renowned Scottish Premiership where the third team has just finished 42 points (the equivalent of 14 wins) behind the champions and where season after season the only real competition relates to deciding who is the worst of the worst .
  3. Andy Dunlop and Dougie Somner in St Mirren colours and with perm at Love St. Could be either 5/12/1981 (1-2) or 17/4/1982 (0-2). Looks like the latter. Short sleeves and no-one in the crowd dressed like a polar explorer.
  4. Thanks for keeping me right. Clearly I didn't pay enough attention in Gibberish class.
  5. If anyone speaks fluent gibberish, have a read. I hope this is the relevant extract from the SPL Rules & Regulations. After having paid and/or allowed for any and all amounts to be paid/allowed for in terms of these Rules in the calculation of, out of or in connection with Net Commercial Pyramid Play-Off Revenues the remaining sum in respect of each Pyramid Play-Off Competition shall be paid by SPFLL as fees in the amounts determined from the specified percentage to the parties set out in the Table below in consideration of the rights, facilities and properties relating to and concerning, Radio Transmission and Transmission during and in respect of the relevant Pyramid Play-Off Competition and the other commercial, copyright and database rights and properties and any and all other intellectual property rights in and relating to each Pyramid Play-Off Competition contributed by each such party. If there has been no Pyramid Play-Off Tie then no payment shall be made to whichever of the SHFL or SLFL did not have a Champion club involved in the Pyramid Play-Off Competition. the Scottish FA 10% the SPFL 15% the SHFL 15% the SLFL 15% The clubs/Club participating in the relevant season’s Pyramid Play-Off Competition, divided equally between each of them 45% divided equally between each of them.
  6. Niven, Provan, Brian Gallagher and Donnie's twin brother Ronnie? If so, Rangers 6-1 Thistle 10/9/1966.
  7. I contacted HAFC and got an answer. There will be a cash only gate on Saturday.
  8. How about "The Harry Lillis Crosby Wildlife Park"? (See what I did there?) Much as I hate the sight of the bing, others are right. Development would be a vanity project with a financial suicidal outcome. The harsh reality is that we will probably never again need a stadium with it's current capacity let alone more seating. We don't even fill it now when the Old Firm come calling. The main priority must surely be to make sure the ground remains safe, water-tight etc and at the very least LOOKS better.
  9. If you can believe the BBC stats... Possession 59% (ICT 41%) Shots 11 (ICT 9) On Target 6 (ICT 5) Corners 12 (ICT 2) Fouls 6 (ICT 15) I agree the corners (and indeed all crosses into the box) were poor but we had lots of opportunities to get them right!
  10. Ah the fibreglass 3 wheelers! Billy Ritchie, John Greig, Billy Cunningham and not sure. Russell Brown?
  11. If there is anything the SPFL can do to alienate supporters, they'll do it.
  12. Hello EKJ. The "pundits" on Sportsound yesterday claimed that QP only have one small stand built at Lesser Hampden and that it would not be deemed suitable for the Premiership. The confident prediction was that they would be back playing at the "big" Hampden if they get promoted. That would include 2 x home matches v The Old Firm - say 30,000+? - and generally decent crowds v Hearts/Hibs/Aberdeen etc.
  13. For anyone thinking about going, this is from their website... Tickets for our home match against Partick Thistle on Saturday are are on sale. Just like last season we shall be operating a ticket only entry process meaning your matchday ticket must be purchased online and either printed out or shown on your phone to be scanned before entry to the ground. There will be no cash gates on a matchday. Matchday tickets can be purchased here; Arbroath – https://www.arbroathfc.co.uk/ticketing/home-tickets/ Partick Thistle – https://www.arbroathfc.co.uk/ticketing/away-tickets/
  14. Couldn't agree more! "Passive ownership vehicle", "democratic vehicles", special membership class" "John Lambie Stand Fans" !!!! How will season ticket holders who are not members of the TJF or TJT (and perhaps withheld their permission for their details to be passed on the the Trust) become beneficiaries of the PTFC Trust? Does the penultimate paragraph imply that anyone renewing or buying a season ticket for the first time will have their details shared by the club and the Trust and the Foundation by default?
  15. Couldn't help notice McGregor had a kick at him as he was about to score. A keeper (IMO) who has "previous" and has got away with a lot in his time at Rangers). I wonder what would have happened if Tiff had missed because of the kick or gone down. Penalty awarded during an uncontested attempt at goal? Tiff booked for diving?
  16. "the lure of Motherwell" There's a phrase you don't hear every day!
  17. Whatever the merits of sacking the manager, as many others have said, the timing stinks. The wider footballing public and media who know next to nothing about our run of results (and the reasons) will simply see it as "sacked because they could only run Rangers close at Ibrox" sort of thing. Yet again the club is up there vying to be PR disaster of the year. If only we had a communications guru on the board who is media savvy. Someone to put a spin on the decision..............Oh haud oan a minute.....
  18. Last win against Celtic is 2/5/1995. 33 played since. Last win against Rangers is 4/5/1993. 31 played since.
  19. I haven't seen any highlights so am still in the dark about his red card. Just exactly why was he sent off? Foul and abusive dissent? I didn't see what happened (following the ball) but two guys after the game said he kicked a Cove player.
  20. Thanks. Every day's a school day (except when the teachers are on strike).
