    Any one else missing 3pm Saturday games against the cream buns?

    personally I like to make a day of it, drinking ect and carrying it thru to my Saturday night.

    I see the point with the Tv clash with SSN (Coupon time ratings) but they pay half what Setanta paid us so at least make our weekends.

    Are we ever likely to see OF Saturdays again?

    most people wont remember 3 pm kick offs for derby games, as they were usually pished by that time.

    i hate the term "old firm"

    just drink on sat and carry through til the sunday, rough as * few bevs, rubbered again, on it up to the game after it back on the bus for the 3 hrs home more bevvy and out sunday night which is the best night out anyway and monday is either a write off or where you try and decide which is the easiest way to top yourself without it being too sore!


    monday night home shower, brilliant dinner then bed!














    binge drinking is bad and not encouraged, neither is not turning up for work!


    be good and stay in school!

    Edinburgh derby? If you mean a unique name lots of clubs have them.

    Olympiakos - Panathinaikos (Derby of the 'Eternal Enemies'), Wisla Krakow - Cracovia Krakow (Swieta Wojna (The Holy War), Real Madrid - Barcelona (El Clásico) etc..

    I don't have a problem with it if I'm being honest. It's just a term to me, I don't really look into it much.

    not at 3pm anyway, we'll still get the odd saturday at half 12, the police etc prefer the sunday at that time because of the pubs and that not opening early and sky prob see this fixture as a warm up for super sunday
