  1. What is this "futsal"? And why don't you watch that instead of football if it's so perfect? Or perhaps more appropriately why don't you accept that there are rules to each and every sport. Some are quirky. Some are reasonable....and not everyone will agree which is which.

     

    For an indication of how you are starting to get right on my left nipple, I'll pretend to be you for a minute and you can pretend to be anyone you like:

     

    From: http://www.futsal.com/index.php/futsal-rules-of-the-game-summary

     

    LAW 1 - The playing court. Let's dispense with this one, too easy.

     

     

    LAW II - The Ball

    · Size #4 WHY NOT SIZE 5???? Makes much more sense as it's half of 10. Why is no-one taking this question seriously??

    · Circumference: 62-64 cm WHY NOT 50-55 cm??? Are they CRAZY??

    · Weight: 390-430 grams TOO LIGHT!! OMG MY HEAD IS GOING TO EXPLODE!! I THINK I'LL WRITE TO FIFA AND MAYBE ALEX SALMOND

    · Bounce: 55-65 cm on first bounce. CRAZY RULE!! CRAZY CRAZY!! WHY DOES THE BALL HAVE TO BOUNCE??? WHY NOT HAVE KICK OFF LIKE PROPER FOOTBALL??

    · Material: Leather or other suitable material (i.e., not dangerous) LEATHER IS DANGEROUS!! THE BALL SHOULD BE MADE OUT OF KITTEN FUR!!!

     

    Need I continue ya maniac??

  2. Yep. I'd go with the 100 minutes because it clearly ties-in with the metric system. 50 minutes each half on a metric pitch using a ball of standard metric weight and dimensions. The width of the white lines should also be standardised and within the metric system (did you see how thin the lines were at Alloa? Shocking! And so far no reply to my email to FIFA on the subject)

     

    Does anyone know if the size of the goals is measure in metric? I for one would be fascinated to know. And if they are in metric, have they grown or shrunk since the days Great Britain shunned the metric system and staunchly & steadfastly stuck to Imperial measurements? If games in this country are played using goals of Imperial dimensions, surely due cognisance should be taken during European and International fixtures played abroad. I suggest 0.5 goal should in this case be awarded to the British team for hitting the woodwork. Similarly for foreign teams playing here.

     

    Also for in-depth discussion please: grass depth. Is this standardised? And if not, why not?

  3. Gutted I can't be there, as I'm getting married on the Friday. I think I'd get a swift boot in the swingers for suggesting a game on the Saturday.

    Nae commitment! Call yourself a fan? :shok:

     

    ;)

    Kiddin obviously. Congrats.

  4. :lol:

    He'll be Scottish by the end of tomorrow. Unless he wins.

     

    Is it true that his good form is down to Viagra? Used to be the case that he couldn't get any better than a semi

  5. Probably because the Orange Order still exists, as does the Act of Settlement.

     

    On the plus side, it is pishing with rain at the moment, so the bowler hatted goons will no doubt be getting absolutely drookit, whilst those of us who inhabit the 21st century are inside remaining nice and dry. :)

    Totally agree.

    And in the interests of balance....the Hibernian Walks should also be consigned to the dustbin of history.

  6. My regret in this is I thought I was doing the right thing and helping the club by renewing my season ticket and player sponsorship early.

    I am now regretting doing this because of our boards refusal to come out and support the views of the fans inviting No to the newco in Div 1

     

    The only thing I can threaten to stop is my Centenary club me membership

    But if the club vote yes to newco I'll follow junior football

    Already contemplating Newlandsfield for my football next season. The Thistle Board's vote will be the clincher

  7. Got cornered at work today by a rabid currant bun who was on a rant about how "F***** unfair" this whole saga is and how it's going to be disastrous for the whole Scottish game. But his punchline was "Something should be done at Parliament to save the Gers. It's a national disgrace the way we've been treated"

     

     

    LMAO

     

     

    Medication time.
