Not the best description I would have used, he is a shocking player, seen him a few times over the last few years in Scotland.

They pay the DVLA £4.50 a time I believe, like you say not morally right really.

When you get the ticket it has the magic word PCN on it, now for the difference, PCN has 2 wordings, if it is Penalty Charge Notice then you will have to pay as this is enforceable, usually council or Police issued. Now for the other worthless piece of paper, It will say Parking Charge Notice and there is the difference. Because it is a free car park what can they actually claim a loss on for you parking there ? this is where court cases trying to enforce this has failed and they know this. Parking eye who do B&Q will send you the so called fine offering a redution if you pay early, after this a picture of your car entering and leaving will be sent(picture wouldn`t identify owner in a court of law), next up is the threatening letter with a nice official police looking enforcement threat than usually last warning in red lettering (this really scares you) 12 months later and not a peep so don`t be bullied into paying up. I`m sure LL could add to or amend if I got anything wrong.

Cheers guys, looks like I have to pay out then I was at the game and for some strange reason I thought Ritchie scored the 3rd

First day of the season we beat Wolves 3-2, I say Marshall scored 2 and Ritchie scored the other, my mate says Marshall got a hat trick, who is right ? cheers guys

If they genuinely want to take the game to new audiences why go to a country of 1.5 million people in the middle of a desert where the temperature hits 50 degrees in the summer months, rather than give it to a nation that embraces all kinds of sport, has a great infrastructure and ready build stadia and has never held the tournament before. Fifa and Sepp Blatter can stick their international football up their arse, corrupt bastards. Australia would have been perfect for that WC.

• February: Qatari Fifa executive Mohamed Bin Hammam says he'll block Sepp Blatter's bid for a fourth term in the 2011 elections: "The time has come. Fifa needs an Asian president." • May: Sepp publicly backs Qatar's 2022 World Cup bid. "I strongly feel the World Cup should come to Qatar!" • August: Bin Hammam says Sepp deserves a fourth term. "Let me be very clear. I will be backing Sepp Blatter to remain in office. He is my very good friend!"' (Sepp says claims of a deal are malicious. "I have most certainly not made any sort of deal with Qatar. How could I? As president of Fifa I would never misuse my office!")

Definately hasn`t got any, I borrowed his copy myself, they were going for around £35 on flea bay a while back, not a bad read as they go, pretty much the same format as most of the others though. He was going to do a re press of it but it fell through

Most NI fans are just critical of Worthington anyway regardless of who he plays, Lafferty has done nothing over the border to warrant a place anyhow, he is slowly becoming the whipping boy at Ibrox. I think Feeney will be an asset to us when he is fully fit.

Season well and truly over at the glitterdome, happy days

So is 64 for Labour

Just bought some curry kits from this siteCurryfrenzy, enough for 8 people per kit and really good 3 for £7.98 and another free if you use this code 23460 definately worth a try .

True but there`s always one ;) Just had a look at a few sites, seems like they are pretty much urinating in the wind with trying to get the fine, thanks chaps he may calm down a bit now.

He had been in earlier in the day and spent £200 on building supplies and left the receipt in the window so no need for sarcasm mate

Dunno if this is the right place, mods feel free to move. Went to the Exeter game with a few mates who hadn`t been for years and (mate)parked on B&Q. This morning he phoned me up raging that he had recieved a parking ticket for £80 in the post from some firm called Parking Eye, anyone else had one ? I told him that they are non enforcable and to ignore it (hope I`m right

What`s the story here ?

Interesting view from Man uniteds board: One even said 'I hope your kids die in front of you' for the following comments..... Going on about being cheated, conspiracies. Start a :censored:ing petition or summat. The Irish football team is full of second rate :censored:e english men anyway. The standard of football is awful. I would much rather the French at the world cup than the irish. The irish should only be allowed to play curling and gaelic football. All they do is take the piss out of the english, tell the world how much they hate the english and they have bleated on about the hand of god for years. Pay back time.

Your quite right, there is a Hamburg SV supporters club in Glasgow that is now in its 32nd year and there is also the Hamburg chosen few Rangers supporters club in Germany. The Celtic/ St Pauli link is probably about 10 years old and is based on the left wing leanings of each clubs supporters (Ultras) Here`s a good picture from the game :

He didn`t manage to get there mate so it has been re scheduled for a later date. Probably just talking about his new book coming out in November, should be a good read

Now now

Funny you should say that http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/ho...rs-sacking.html IN Day Three of our serialisation of Andy Goram's gripping autobiography The Goalie: My Story the soccer legend tells how he almost blew his Ibrox career by going on a massive bender on the holiday island of Tenerife. Goram's disgusted family flew home without him and he ended up in a fight with a Dundee United fan. Rangers manager Walter Smith decided enough was enough - and told his wayward star his time at Ibrox was at an end... THE ELEVEN managers of Rangers glared down from the pictures around the wood-panelled walls of the gaffer's office at Ibrox. Sean Scrimgeour Bruised ... Sean Scrimgeour was attacked by Goram during bender which started in the Ibrox Bar They seemed to sneer at me with contempt. I'd had it all in my goalie's gloves, and I'd thrown it away. Walter Smith was telling me I was finished. I'd drunk and brawled my way out of the club I love. The gaffer was on one side of his massive mahogany desk and I was on the other side, waiting, sweating bullets and paying the price for a bender in Tenerife that has now become the stuff of Ibrox legend. I thought he would kick me off the club's summer trip to Canada and fine me two weeks' wages. Instead, he simply looked at me and said, 'I'm putting you on the transfer list. You're going now. I'm not putting up with this any more. The way you are behaving is not for the good of this football club.' Walter and I had been through so much in the three years since he'd signed me in 1991 but now it was over. I don't mind admitting it, I broke down in front of him and cried my eyes out. I was begging him to let me stay. But he was adamant. He had to get rid of me. He said, 'Andy, your chance is gone now. That's it.' I stood up, and he shook my hand and said, 'I wish you all the best.' Goram Trophy laden ... Andy Goram and Walter Smith pick up awards together I was a broken man. All that was potentially left was one last hurrah, a farewell to the boys in our end of season trip to Canada. Would he let me go? He said: 'You can go to Canada, but keep your head down. "We still employ you. Don't do anything stupid.' That was it, and I walked out the door firmly believing I had played my last game for Rangers. How had it come to this? Let me tell you a story . . . We were going for back-to-back Trebles, and my own aching back was in tatters. Deep down, I knew there was no way I was going to recover from the injury, but the gaffer wanted to give me every chance to make that season's Scottish Cup final against Dundee United. Advertisement Quantcast He told me to go away for a week, get some sunshine and relax. My mate Ging owned the Ibrox Bar in Playa de las Americas in Tenerife, and I thought that would be a good place to unwind. I was married to Tracey at the time, so we, my son Lewis, Tracey's mum and dad and her sister and brother-in-law, packed up and headed for the sun. We had a great week, but my back was still killing me. On our last day, we were going to the beach in the morning when I heard a shout from a bar. 'Goalie!' I turned around and it was the Oldham team, my old muckers and the manager who made me, Joe Royle. They'd just been relegated, and they were drowning their sorrows. They wanted me to join them for a pint and something to eat. I hadn't seen them for years. and I wasn't leaving until 6am the next morning. Where was the harm? Well, one thing led to another, and I was there all day. I could see my family coming back up from the beach and we were still in the same place. I wasn't falling about at that point, I was just having a great day reminiscing with the boys. Although Tracey was a bit grumpy, I just said I'd have a couple more then come up and get changed so that we could go out for a meal on our last night. But we decided to move pubs. The drinks were flowing. The next thing I knew I was in Oldham midfielder Mike Milligan's hotel room and it was 1pm the following day. The full consequences of my actions then began to hit me: my family had flown home without me, my bags were gone and my passport was gone. I had £40 on me and the gaffer was expecting me back. At that time, my agent was Kenny Dalglish's sister-in-law Catherine Robertson, and I started the process of getting in touch with her to wire me some money. The goalie cover By the book ... Andy Goram Meanwhile, the Oldham boys were back on the batter and I couldn't get a flight back for a week. I just thought I might as well stay. I was in the doghouse anyway. My mistake at that point was not calling the gaffer. It was just plain stupidity. I didn't ring my wife, either. I didn't want the conflict, so I just went missing. During one session, we bumped into four Dundee United fans and one of them wouldn't stop nipping away at me. I just walked away. Then the next night was like an action replay. We were back in the same place and the United fan was at it again. He was giving it, 'McCoist's done, you're s***e and we're gonna win the cup.' I said to him, 'I'm not here to listen to this p**h. I heard enough from you last night.' His eyes lit up and he snapped, 'Right, we better do something about it then. Let's go outside.' He grabbed me by the collar, and we went outside. I got my retaliation in first. I threw one punch and left him flat out on the ground. The bloke I'd hit ended up with a broken cheekbone and the story was plastered all over the papers. Now I had to phone the gaffer. Walter was calm enough and just sighed. 'What's happened has happened,' he said. 'Just keep your head down, because the news reporters are all on their way over to get you. Stay low until your flight home.' Reality was biting. The bender was bad enough, but when I sat down and thought about the danger I'd put myself in it sent a chill down my spine. What if those three guys from Dundee, with their mate lying sparked out on the floor had decided to take revenge? They could have kicked me senseless, broken my legs - anything could have happened. I've since met the guy I hit at a dinner, and we laughed about the reckless stupidity of it all. It was the brawl that almost cost me my Rangers career. Dealing with my nonsense was the last thing the gaffer needed in the build-up to the final, which we ended up losing 1-0. I'd disgraced the club and let everyone down. I knew I was going to be punished and expected to be hit with the maximum fine of two weeks' wages. I deserved it. The last day before we broke up for the summer break, Davie Dodds popped his head in the dressing room door and said, 'Goalie, he wants you now . . . upstairs.' When I'd been on the lash in the sunshine, I hadn't once thought of the consequences - that I'd have to sit in front of the gaffer and be told that I would be sold in the summer. People have since told me that the whole drama was Walter Smith playing mind games with me, that he did it to scare me. Bollocks. He did it to sell me and get rid of me because I had sickened him. I know that if someone had come in for me, Walter would have sold me. The truth is that no one came in. I was under contract, so I stayed put. I vowed that Walter Smith was going to get the reaction out of me that he was looking for. I worked hard in training and got myself in the best shape of my life. Then one day as we built up to another big game in Europe Walter took me aside and said, 'You're back in. You're off the list.' I was lucky, because not too many players get a second chance with Walter Smith. I did, and I'll always be thankful. # THE Goalie: My Story by Andy Goram with Iain King is published by Mainstream Publishing.
