    Hi Zefan, I remember your name from before.

    Hello, again, it's been...8 years :)

    I used to consider these parts as my home on the internets. I've been away but now I'm drawn back, partly because I'm eyeing up my first PC build in many years and also because the wider internet is a bit of a mess. Hello pals :)

    That time of Year: Xmas bonus and pay rises

    Not had a pay rise in the three years I've been with the company and my bonus will probably be another one-year membership for the Jelly of the Month club.

    UEFA Champions League/Europa League play-offs 1st Leg

    Big win for Celtic considering they can't normally buy an away result in Europe. Rode our luck at time but by the same token we could have had two more goals. What a performance from Forster, didn't put a foot wrong the whole game. I'm far from convinced by Adam Matthews though, just seems too...

    SPL season 2012-13

    I've no idea how they would do that, I don't even know how to define the maximum customer base for a football club! Look, we can all see you have an axe to grind about the attendances in the SPL in the post-Rangers era. That's understandable, but I have no interest in debating attendances any...

    SPL season 2012-13

    If you make something cheaper more people will buy it, simple economics there. Chairmen are greedy and they need a reality check. I've no desire to get into the vagaries of each club's sales but if I was an Aberdeen fan I'd be struggling to justify the cost of a season ticket given the...

    SPL season 2012-13

    What short term pain? If they lower the price more punters will come, they will actually make more money. Just found out that St Johnstone are letting under 12s in free all season, home and away support, as long as their accompanied by a paying adult. Admittedly I'm not an accountant, nor a...

    SPL season 2012-13

    If the chairmen of SPL clubs want more people to turn up for football games there is a simple solution; make it cheaper. I don't mean freezing ticket prices for a couple of years or other token gestures, I mean radically slashing the cost of going to football. The more people that turn up on...

    Huge result for Celtic there, and Lennon in particular. He's been dire in Europe but hopefully this is a sign of his ongoing improvement as a tactician. Speaking of tactics, this site gives a great breakdown of Celtic games and occasionally those of their up-coming opponents.

    SPL season 2012-13

    Big night for the SPL in Europe, there's a lot hinging on Celtic being able to get through to at least the play-offs. As hilarious as this summer has been, the death of Rangers has pretty much sealed our league's fate as a European minnow. The UEFA co-efficient system is geared towards...

    SPL season 2012-13

    It's tough to say. I was expecting a bit of a party, what with the flag being raised, but the crowd were quiet. A bad pass typically prompted a more vocal response than a good one. Certainly the football was pretty dull to watch but I think supporters have an obligation to support the team, to...

    SPL season 2012-13

    Was up at Celtic Park on Saturday, it was pretty turgid stuff and a draw would have been fair. The atmosphere wasn't how I remember it, (it was the first game I've been to in a few years) it seems everyone leaves the singing to the Green Brigade section. Going on the evidence I think Aberdeen...

    All inclusive Holiday destination?

    We went to Cape Verde (Riu Tuareg) in November, very new resorts, nice price, cater for people with missing or malfunctioning limbs.

    which is best- wii or Kinect?

    Kinect is good but the play area is a bit of a bind, it's not compatible with coffee tables for a start.

    Nice vid, very funny, think I spotted a bloke from my home town (Wick) too.

    Sky Sports News, Holocaust comment. Does it offend you?

    Probably, but I maintain the vast majority of football fans wouldn't be offended by it.

    Sky Sports News, Holocaust comment. Does it offend you?

    It doesn't offend me, nor, I imagine, the vast majority of football fans. But colourful terms like 'rape', 'holocaust' and 'hanging-out-the-back-of-her' go against SKY's mission to sanitise, gentrify and commercialise the sport and therefore they must be seen to take the moral high ground...
