CIS Cup torture

The pain of watching this game is hard to describe. Thankfully, in extra time, we started to play a bit, and thanks to, cough, Callum Elliot, we're in the quarters of the diddy cup. And the Hobos are out, which makes it all the sweeter! Nade scored a penalty in 34 minutes and then it was like Chinese water torture as we huffed and puffed against a truly awful Dunfermline side. Allowing them to equalise in 84 minutes was unforgiveable, but extra time was aways going to send the result our way. I think it will be a long time before I am back at East End Park on a league visit on this showing. And quite glad i am too, rotten, cold, nasty place.
4-1 was the final scoreline, and was a fair reflection on the night.

&*(%^&%^$%^$%$!!


Words fail me about this one. Craig bloody Brewster. I saw him standing there on the touchline, doing his stupid Roy Of The Rovers leg stretch warm-up, and I knew we were doomed. I knew it. It was a funny old day. After a night in Inverness, a hangover saw me eat the most singularly hideous hot-dog i have ever tasted, but by the end of the 90 minutes it wasn't the only thing that was making me sick.
Why do we do this? Inconsistency will be our downfall. There was nothing for it other than to go out and have more to drink after this, and with another night in Inverness booked, it had to be done. Lovely city. No way I am going back!

Let's All Laugh At Rangers!


There are times as a football fan that are sublime. This was one of them. 4-2 against Rankgers. I thank you Andy Driver, Ibby Tall, Michael Stewart and Kestutis Ivaskevicius! It was such a glorious result that I spent a fair bit of time that followed in the Caley Sample Rooms. And then the Diggers. And then, well...it's all a bit blurry after that!

Miko Madness

I want him paraded through the streets of Ednburgh and then hung, drawn and quartered at the Tron. What on earth was that all about?! Okay, so Miko went down a bit too easy and won his country a penalty. In the end, we were too strong for our Lithuanian friends anyway. But did that stop the crazy weedgie meeja calling for Miko's head on a stick...of course not. And we Jambos are paranoid, are we? There is no malicve towards the Lithuanians at our club, or our Lithuanian-residing owner, is there? Aye, and i'm Barbie.

Well, well, no so super Well


According to many, Motherwell were going to be this season's in-form team, the 'wee' team that dared to challenge the Old Firm. After Saturday, i have to admit I was worried. But Larry Kingston and good old Velicka allayed my fears with two goals in a good 2-0 win with some positive performances. After a wet misrable night at Fir Park last season, I decided to watch this one from the comfort of my own home. I also decided to put on a black wig for the evening...maybe the hair colour needed changed again? You may laugh,. but we won didn't we...
