The team needs to show more dig. Some more crunchieng tackles in midfield would be a start.

Liam's form has certainly been consistent at Dunfermline. He scored a couple in his earlier matches, but he's been getting hooked well before the end in more recent matches. It's not as if he's a youngster who needs to get toughened up, as he's already well experienced in the lower leagues. I'd expect him to be retained by Dunfermline to see how he gets on, or else released. Edited: Oops, just re-read that, and I should have typed "inconsistent" !

Condolences.

What are these posters like, then?

Cute joke, poppet.

Whatever happens, next season will be no picnic. Anybody got another topic to aero?

I see what you're getting at: a kind of domino effect?

The Driver?

Exactly my feeling too when it unfolded. Another ray of light was that Cairney for much of the game was pretty much running the midfield show for us and doing it well. But he can't jump for toffee.

I'll simply reiterate what I already wrote, which is that I think a NO vote will be used by the powers at be to close the whole issue for decades to come. Yes, some people might fight for it, but they'll be told not to waste any more of the electorate's time, etc etc. Gotta vote YES, THEN fight for a further improvement.

Personally, I'd ban them.

Now you've done it.....

You should know by now that posting on this forum is like treading on eggshells.

Gulp. Now you've got me worried!

What do they teach them in the schools?

They should be egged on to do something useful.

I never thought about it like that before.

I'm afraid that's cloud cuckoo land. If the NO vote wins then any discussion about a fairer system will be dead and buried for decades, which is exactly what those who the system suits perfectly (i.e. the two "big" parties) want. Like many others, at first I didn't really know what AV consisted of, but that was because I didn't make the effort to look at what it consists of. It took me a couple of minutes to look at it, and it's clearly superior and fairer than FTOF, sorry, FPTP. If you'll allow me to quote myself, see above, and then see that rat-face Reid has already proclaimed as much (from the BBC website): Labour's Lord Reid, who backed the No campaign, said the decisive result "should put electoral reform off the agenda".

Head ban ger!

Hibs have also released 10 players, but as I don't follow the SPL I don't recognize any of their names...

I'd pretty much agree with all of that. Homosexuality is a reproductive dead-end, there is no doubt about that. It is also "abnormal" in that it is not the norm for the majority of people, but I don't think that it can be considered "wrong" in any moral sense. Maybe it's a bit like supporting, say East Stirlingshire: it's a dead-end in terms of ever seeing your team win the Champions League, and you're not even in the majority in Stirlingshire (I believe), but hey, if that's what floats your boat. PS: I'm guessing you mean "wary" and not "weary".

There's no doubt that inbreeding depression results from reproduction between closely related individuals, i.e. a greater incidence and range of congenital abnormalities compared to what would be expected from reproducing with much more distantly related individuals. There's also no doubt that most species including humans have evolved to minimize the risk of this happening, by ensuring that we are usually not motivated to have sex with our closest relatives. But this incest aversion seems to depend mostly on familiarity, which in turn depends on growing up together. So, the vast majority of normal people don't want to have sex with their brother or sister not actually because it's their brother or sister, but because they have grown up with them and the revulsion at the idea has resulted from over-familiarity. It's actually not unusual for brothers and sisters who were separated at an early age to later find each other sexually attractive, or indeed for people to find some of their cousins attractive to the point of having sexual relations. In fact, marriage between cousins isn't universally condemned. That doesn't mean that it's for everybody, of course, but if two adult cousins want to "take things further", then who are we to make a song and dance?

I must admit to thinking on Saturday when the babbling announcer at half-time kept going on about this cheque worth hundreds and this cheque worth thousands, that a hell of a lot of people have been conned big style by those in charge of Dundee FC, aided by the administrators who did a lot of the conning work on behalf of DFC.

Interesting one, in that it might qualify as a case where it would appear especially wrong if it was between consenting adults. But of course to spice it up, it isn't always plain and simple......

We used to get great free chocolate biscuits at meetings, but then they bandit.
