We’re not a Protestant club. A few bozos fly the Union Jack and sing the Billy Boys song but it’s a small minority.
For what it’s worth, one of the first chairmen of the club, Elias Furst, was head of the Jewish Congregation in Edinburgh.
This investment wouldn’t be straightforward as the...
My moniker on Kickback is Goldstone Wonder. Don’t post that often these days. Quite a lot of unrest at the club. Aberdeen fans are a weird bunch. Had a golden 10 years under Fergie and still living off the back of that.
Looks like Alex is going to get an extended run in the team. Tidy...
Played pretty well tonight. Our manager was far too negative against a really poor Celtic side but Alex did everything asked of him. Tenacious and got up and down the pitch really well.
I agree it's going to take two to three years to get in to the EU again but there is a genuine enthusiasm in Scotland for the European project and I think the EU would be very happy with a base in Scotland for a free trade deal with rUK if the Tories ever agree to one.
I voted No in 2014. Not with any great enthusiasm. However I didn't think that the Yes vote were properly able to answer the fundamental question of what our currency would be and I wasn't impressed by Salmond et al saying we'll just use Sterling for the time bieng.
I voted to remain in 2016...
Just to be absolutely clear, I am not in any way condoning the behaviour towards Lennon. Does he deserve to have bullets sent through the post, be spat at, have coins thrown at him, receive threats? Not in the slightest. Totally unacceptable behaviour which should be dealt with by the police...
As a Hearts fan I take exception to being called a diet Hun. We have a small but vocal minority in our club who espouse similar views to Rangers fans. I know scores of Hearts fans and none of them identify with Rangers. Celtic fans look at everything through the prism of the sectarian divide in...
The media up here seem to think his loan will be converted to a transfer in the summer (which is the spin that Rangers will be giving them). I suspect TB took the wise decision not to allow the transfer to become permanent until it was paid up front. Rangers will not have any funds until they...
I've been laid low with a chest infection and only been to the docs today when I got some antibiotics. Not run since a week past Sunday when I did a (very slow) 10k as I was coughing and spluttering then. I was assuming I'd be well past it by now and raring to go for the Brighton Half.
Anyway...
Hi guys,
I'm running the Brighton Half-Marathon on Sunday 25th. Coming down from Edinburgh for the weekend and really looking forward to it. I've had a look at the course and it looks reasonably flat, although I'm wondering if there is long slow incline up to St Dunstans? Presumably one of the...
