    That's what should happen, though. Matt Gaetz, of all people, did something similar in Who Is America?
    It merely demonstrates the ridiculousness of those who don't realise what's going on.
    If somebody's suggesting that the cure for school shootings is more armed children, then maybe you shouldn't agree with them?

    He had about half a dozen 'moments' which were the 'it' as far as that genre of comedy was concerned.

    One line and destructively cutting. They don't amount to a career but completely unforgettable.

    Risky, I'm becoming more and more like Waldorf or Statler, If I could carry a gun I'd probably kill people before Breakfast every day.

    Not sure why you've singled them out, when he's also behind Kenny ****ing Miller! <laugh>
    We should never have sold Gough back to Scotland so quickly, in my opinion.

    His missus probably has better trigger discipline and he's probably got better taste in shirts.

    I think I could have singled out 20, Joe Jordan?

    I think it's very influenced by time and teams. Jordan's there because of this, though:


    A big moment in Scottish national team history. Ally Hunter did not make the list... <whistle>

    So yeah, I had a really weird dream last night

    From what I can remember, we beat the Nomads 3-1, yet the entire world was convinced that we lost the game 6-3, with all the post-match reports and so forth saying that's what the score was, as if I was the only person who watched the actual match and knew the real result

    Not quite as bad as the weird anxiety dreams I had back in March/April where I was back at school and found out I had an exam that day that nobody told me about, mainly because those ones had me waking up thinking that I forgot something, but still...

    Was suggested at the time, that Dundee United refused to sell to Rangers so a deal was hatched for him to come to us for a season. No idea if that but I suspect not.

    We sold Gough (one of the best centre backs that season), Hoddle (one of the best midfielders in Europe) and Clive Allen (the player of the season that season) in the summer of 1987.
    Only Hoddle made sense as he was personally desperate to play in Europe.

    I suspect that 87 was when our serious money troubles csme to the fore.

    I was told by one of the backroom staff that Gough was always going to Rangers as Dundee utd would not sell to Rangers direct, fact or fiction it's a good story

    Yeah but Alfie was more convincing. Too many OG's on the prediction league to be convincing <laugh>

    No,Maggie. She had been sedated from June 8th until yesterday.They have her off the ventilators and trying to get her to breathe on her own. I think she may have recognised me as she looked at me three times and smiled.....but maybe not as her facial expressions keep changing.
    They had so many tubes her,I thought they were trying to reproduce the Bionic Woman....hopefully!!!!!
