  1. Osijek beat PSV Eindhoven home and away last season so obbiousy going to be a tough fixture.
  2. If your wanting discussion on that read back the thread. I am finished on the subject.
  3. Seemingly Dorrans is on his way home with a reoccurrence of his old injury and will miss the pre-season.
  4. I know DB gets annoyed when threads stray but i actually enjoy it for a short time. It is the same as everything if it is interesting it is accepted if not you have the thread police on your door.?
  5. We used to buy Jungle formula when we went touring Scotland after we were told the Forrest workers used that. It worked great. The Baskits still flew around you but wouldn't prick. The canals and Sluis\Sluizen are not the problem it is marsh land that make midges so prominent. That is why we only get them in the beginning of the spring then it becomes too dry for the midges. We of course have mosquitoes which lay there eggs in still water. The biggest problem is that people all have pots and pails full of water in the garden and that is the perfect place for breeding mosquitoes. If you live here you build up a resilience to the mosquitoes bite but most of the Scots that I have seen here get lumps from there bite. My brother in law had his eye like a defeated boxer when he was here, it was totally shut. The frig'n horse flies that is a different kettle of fish. you know when the prick you. PS you won't get horse flies in a town they are more in rural areas
  6. Midges are horrible. thankfully here on the continent they seem to disappear after the longest day. Here in my garden it is horse-flies that are the biggest pest now. They even jag through your tee shirt. Midges are annoying but horse-flies leave you with a lump for a number of days. They come off the heat of your body and don't give up until they have pricked or you kill them.
  7. Fishing? Just like your normal day on the Gersnet then.
  8. David Edgar said yesterday that a Burnley fan had posted on their website: We have waited 50 years to get into Europe and we get an F'n trip to Aberdeen.?
  9. Been posted on FF that he passed away today. No official confirmation.
  10. His injury problems worry me more than his past. I would rather someone kicked hell out of my wife than damage my car.(That is a joke by the way?) I will leave it at that as I have had my say. I am seemingly more forgiving than others. The only other point is that people say it is terrible but if Stevie G finds it good then great. How is that for hypocrisy.
  11. Kicking a car is also a criminal offence. Where does this morality line begin? If anything the Gascoigne situation was far worse because it happened at our club. It was pulling down the public image of our club. If he was or is a serial wife-beater then I agree full heartedly but a one off situation when both he and probably his wife were drunk a number of years ago deserves a chance to redeem himself. All of a sudden every Rangers supporter seems to be a moral saint and judge and jury. Bring back Hanging I say.
  12. So you don't believe people should be given a chance to redeem themselves. If it was a calculated deed that he did then I would agree with you. He was drunk and made a stupid decision. Was it Robertson the left back they called the Panel beater because he kicked hell out of a car while drunk. What about Stuart MçCall jumping on the roof of a car. We employed him after that. What about Colin Stein getting sent off on numerous occasions for retaliation and punching fellow players. Where do we draw the line. What he did was not good but if his wife can forgive him then who are we to play Judge and jury over him. Low-life! Bollocks! Take a look in the mirror John that language does not put you so high up the ranking list.
  13. Nero burning software! I can't remember the last time I burnt a CD rom. I think it must be at least 5 years ago. I must admit the German download laws have stopped me downloading music and films but anything I do download goes on to a memory stick.
  14. Believe it or not that was on the Dutch news WC section. Must have been a slow day.

    No point in me listening to my wife as she just nags all the time.?I got an off switch built in to my brain. ?
  16. let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone! Everybody does things you later regret. Patrick kluivert killed a man with reckless driving and was convicted of manslaughter. it didn't hurt his career much. If we are going to look at everybody's history with a fine toothed comb we won't sign anyone.

    A nutritional therapist and you claimed to be overweight for years. How did that work? Do you never listen to your wife?
  18. Flanagan has earned numerous plaudits for his style of play since his breakthrough into the Liverpool first team in November 2013; most notably, the World Cup-winning former Brazil captain and full back Cafu heralded Flanagan as his "successor", applauding his "speed, strength and determination" and stating he "has everything required to be one of the best full-backs in the world".[37][38][39] This has led to fans dubbing Flanagan as "the Scouse Cafu".
  19. I used to say a new manager needs 3 years to get his team together but they don't get that these days. Thank god Caixenha never got 3 years we would have had a diddy team and have been bankrupt. We all thought Alves and Cardoso were the real deal right enough.
  20. What's a few kilometres if your looking for your.......
  21. Yes they all stand on the border with Germany waiting for a trick.
