Hibernian, Kilmarnock, St Mirren, Motherwell, Dunfermline, Partick Thistle, Stenhousemuir are names that I know only because I had to sit through someone reading them out while waiting for Doctor Who to start.

You may be struggling to find the places Hibernia and St Mirren on the map.
I apologise, in advance.

I've only heard of Doctor Who because it used to come on after the football results.

Did Doctor Who cheer you up after the usual Dundee United loss?

Not really. Daleks were more mobile than our forward line.

Of course, given that they can fly. And those sink plungers would be great for grasping balls.

Daleks can FLY? On the few occasions I've caught a glimpse of the programme, they've rumbled around the floor at two miles an hour.
I may have been influenced by a famous cartoon in Punch many years ago. It showed a group of Daleks standing at the bottom of a flight of stairs. One of them is saying something like "Well, that's our plan to rule the universe buggered. "

You're so behind the times, as is that joke.

It's a bit like St Johnstone. All those bins that each week go unemptied.

Listen, Matey - there's never any shortage of rubbish at McDiarmid Park!  >:(
I apologise, in advance.
