Greenock Morton v Aberdeen

[57vintage]

Never been to Grimsby then?

I'll see your Grimsby (so bad that Grimsby Town play in Cleethorpes) and raise you Skegness, Llandudno, Bridlington, Whitley Bay, Withernsea and a half-dozen other down-at-heel faded-glamour seaside holiday shriteholes we've collected on our vacations* around GB in the past 20 years.

*Whitley Bay was for a Dexys'comeback gig in May 2012

Bridlington - more mobility scooters than you could shake a stick. In a whole different league to Grimsby.

And then there?s Morecambe.

At least these places offer up sea views. The ex mining towns along the M8 or East Ayrshire are the grimmest places in Scotland

That said, my idea of Hell on earth would be living in Luss

I did time canvassing and leafleting in Jim Sillars?s South Ayrshire constituency in the 1979 election. Patna, Ochiltree, Dalmellington - holy ****, it was appalling. Like a throwback to the 1930s. Added to that was the local NUM?s openly-violent attitude to anyone who wasn?t on the side of my fellow Keith Grammar School alumnus George Foulkes, the Labour candidate, eventual winner of the seat, and 100% crunt. Had these boys sent a couple of shift rosters of pitmen down to Orgreave, I think the coppers (and the un-numbered uniform-wearing military bastereds) would have had a few more bruises.

My work took me to Patna a few years ago. It?s a deeply unsettling wee place. I cant imagine its changed much since you were there

No, I havent to be fair, but I guess the clue is in the name.

I have been to Luton though, the town is an utter shytehole these days (the suburbs & nearby wee villages are nice enough mind) but it still doesnt hold a candle to Greenock for me.

That place wins shyte towns top trumps for me. Just make sure yer tetanus jab & other inoculations are up to date if yer gonna go.

Sorry to drift off topic, but Jimmy has been entertaining the media before the game.

He says there's a chance we might get beat, he's also p*ssed off about the lack of signings and he apologised for calling a rowie a "buttery".

[Don Julio]

No need for an apology there. He?s clearly a man of distinction and taste.

The real question is, does he dip it in his coffee???

What Jimmy does in his own time is no concern of ours.

[GASC1980]

Well here we go. I'm not super confident today.

[mondo_notion]

any streams for this one?

[irnbru1903]

Our manager certainly likes to throw the cat among the pigeons with his line ups. Yengi and Nilsen give me the fear and there are a few that have had little to no minutes so far. Polvara still can't make the starting line up. Morton will smell blood. Make or break time confidence wise I guess.

[Br0chred]

Just listening on red tv but we sound so powderpuff. Morris on left??

[Br0chred]

Thank god I didn't post my Polvara should be playing instead of Nillsen comment.

Always knew Yengi would come good....
