The Football.....

It's ok, I don't care

Scousers have no sense of humour.

Let's be fair though, it is difficult to test such an assertion by reference to the supporters of Liverpool Football Club.

If you ever go to a game of footy at Anfield and the game is poor quality you can always entertain yourself with a game of "Spot the scouser on the Kop", not only good entertainment but hones one's observational skills. It's a bit like Where's Willy.

Meanwhile.........after much speculation about how much BCFC would increase their ST prices for next season, they have actually reduced them, by 25%!

We sold 12500 at £199 (or less) so this season they are hoping for 15000 at £149, that's £6.50 a game, I can only assume this season's FA cup run has funded the decrease as everybody expected a £50 increase....

Fair play to BCFC. Would be nice to see a few more clubs follow suit, but the money men, agents etc will be rubbing their hands in glee at the new TV money.

Just because it's Friday doesn't mean you can't enjoy watching a match, for Kilmarnock are braving the lions den that is Fir Park when they take on Motherwell tonight.

Be amazed at the immaculate condition of the pitch!

Gasp as the keepers launch the ball aimlessly forward!

Witness the majesty of all corners failing to beat the first man!

Weep tears of unrestrained joy as a stramash in the six yard box leads to a goal!

Choose life, choose fitba.

I've changed my mind. F*ck fitba.

Our defence is a joke and we had to take our captain off because he was one knackered lunge away from being sent off, again. 69 yellows in 180 odd matches. F*cking liability these days. Our keeper is incapable of playing a short ball or commanding his area. Our midfield looks like you could blow a hole through it, let alone punch one. And our strikers look like they are scared of nets, perhaps they are allergic?

The most frustrating thing is that tomorrow I'll wake up and still love the shower of pish that is Kilmarnock for reasons best known to some stupid neurons in my brain.

I suppose I shouldn't really complain too much, we've won two cups in my lifetime and lost 3 others. Not many folk can say that about a town club I suppose.

I've talked myself round.

Choose life, choose fitba.

Good luck to Jarrett Rivers on his move to Blackpool FC. To any tangerines on here, he's a good buy, cracking feet, tougher than he looks, pacy and a great attitude. Look after him, develop his natural talent and sell him on for a few million so the sell on clause is worth it to us

Agreed. I've seen him a couple of times at Croft Park. Cracking player, miles ahead of anyone on the park in footballing ability at that level.

An Ode tae Fitba (inspired by John Hodge)

Choose fitba.

Choose your team.

Choose your favourite player.

Choose a rivalry.

Choose following your f*cking team through thick, thin, promotion, relegation, victory and defeat.

Choose bovril, pies and over priced confectionary.

Choose a season ticket.

Choose your seat.

Choose your friends.

Choose the strip.

Choose going mental and getting the full kit including the f*cking third one even though you'll never see it worn by the team.

Choose wondering why the f*ck you're sitting in a half empty stadium on a freezing Sunday in November.

Choose sitting in your seat watching the same teams time and again, dreadful football, battering f*cking pies into your mouth.

Choose the memories, the good and the bad, the embarrassing defeats and the soaring victories, getting f*cked up on smuggled booze in the stands and barely remembering the match.

Choose your team.

Choose fitba.

What's London got to do with it?

Do all Forfar fans live miles away, in the Borders?

Into extra time at Hampden Park. Can the red lichties break the deadlock?!

 

[Stephenite]

That's it. Queens Park's only shot on target comes right at the end of ET, and goes in. The oldest club in Scotland are in the play-off final.
