Football (for Roger)

[Mince]

I think it's time I got into football and showed an interest.

Roger, how are Dundee County doing (and notice how I did not confuse them with Dundee Town) and when are they playing at Wombles Stadium?

[Roger Kettle]

Mince, thank you for asking.
Dundee County have a rather important fixture on Sunday (a Scottish cup quarter final) against one of Glasgow's Forces of Evil---the blue ones who sing rude things about that chappie in The Vatican.
I expect you to take note of what happens and report back on Monday.

Dundee Country are playing the Smurfs?

[Vulture]

Dundee Country? are playing the Smurfs?

Yup. And perhaps they'll win this time!

Who are the Smrifs?

Who are the Smrifs?

A modern musical band, fronted by Missorry, who have fared quite well in the Hit Parade. Do try to keep up.

Just to keep it in line with the thread.

Hopefully Dundee County will win the replay against the dark side.

I imagine Roger will be skipping home from Tannadice tonight!

[Roger Kettle]

I am a happy chap tonight. I wonder if Mince will return to give his expert analysis of the game.

[Jack]

I'm more looking forward to Colin's analysis of the St. Mirren game.

So happy for Dundee County's win over the Teddy Berrs, well deserved I'm sure, and I'm doubly happy for any score that stops the SPL becoming a procession, i.e. Rangers, Celtic guaranteed top, and it's all about who comes third.

As for Celtic, I'm still a fan, but stopped really caring about them (see above) preferring to follow Kilmarnock, my local team for the emotional ups and downs desired by all true masochists. There are some real Celts over here, though - no matter if Celtic won every year since records began, their pro-Celt ardour would never be quenched. In their minds, Mowbray was fired long ago, it's only a matter of time before reality catches up with their imagination. I give him another week.

...you're close.  I think he's packing his jotters and cleaning out his locker as we speak
