I don't understand that logic at all. We can get rid of anyone we want to any close season but none of them would just walk away because we got relegated so it would cost us money to be shot of them regardless of which division we were in. There is not one circumstance I can contemplate where relegation could be anything other than an embarrassing disaster.

I know it’s not but it is for me. Finally made the pilgrimage over for my 50th. Off to the Ullevi stadium in the morning, to try and recreate Hewitts winner. There doesn’t seem to be an official tour but ill chap the door and ask I don’t know what you’re all moaning about, the weather is lovely

It is definitely a chipper. The reason is that you get your meat from a butcher, fish from a fishmonger, groceries from a grocer, so it stands to reason that you get chips from a chipper. There you go. Case closed.

This thread has inspired me. Yes that is brown sauce on my chips and I will be answering no more questions on the matter.

At least it's stopped raining.

We don't need a poll. It's chipper and you order a chipper supper. Deviants who use any other terminology should have their right to support the club revoked.

Retired? Fuck sake.

Nah, Martin Stewart out of retirement with four

My auld man still lives in Stonehaven, and still calls it a Chip Supper. Yes, I have often wondered if he had cause to complain if he was served a portion of chips with a portion of chips

Ah, I thought Brora were three ahead of Brechin for some reason. Huntly will tank them. Marco De Barros hattrick.

C'mon the Huntly

Can't see the Lib Dems doing much. Still think the SNP are going to be out after it. I'm hoping Labour get a doing, really deserved, but also worried about the rise of Reform, who give me the fear, even more so than the Tories. I'd personally love to see Douglas Lumsden MSP lose his seat. I vote SNP myself, not because of any great promises from them, but solely down to the fact that they are not a Unionist party and I personally, don't want to be part of this unequal union. I could vote green, but they have some shit policies, in my opinion, that I can't get onside with at the moment. There's not really a lot on offer, but the same applies in the Westminster elections. You know the country is fucked, when ferries appear as an ongoing main news story. I know it's important for those dependant on them, but far more pressing issues need discussing.

Used to hang about with a Northern Irish guy at Uni and he’d confuse the hell out of the staff in whatever Chippie we’d end up in as he called fish n chips a ‘chip supper’. No matter how many times I used to explain that he’d just get a massive portion of chips he insisted that was what it was called. Loony.

Yeah that's fair, I've heard folks from glasgow call people from perth teuchters before. The only real difference is if you're from the highlands you know there's no argument you're a teuchter

I grew up in Westhill and we used to call people from Skene teuchters. It was a four minute drive away and we all went to the same school The topic of whether Aberdeen will go down, it being the worst thing that has ever happened to us, and possibly happening within days of Hearts winning the league? I'd rather know your chippy/chipper order to be honest. If you're a pizza crunch supper kind of gadji, that's okay, this is a safe place to share.

I sorry but I have to disagree. Teuchters are from anywhere further north of Aberdeen than (and including) Newmachar and further west than Kingswells. Otherwise, why would the bus to Newmachar, or any bus that isnae a toon bus, be called the teuchy bus?

It's a chipper

Nuclear strike likely takes out most of the Middle east with whatevers left becoming a deathzone. Say goodbye to the Oil industry Did always wonder how the world of Mad Max would eventually come about. Best put all your money into pig farms, bondage clothing, and dog food

Aye, line them up an' let's get punchin' eh? ... but one stands out ... Leon Brittan - nae the worst, but ... that face!! ... Ah met a guy once at a social event fa looked like LB .... he didna say or dae anythin' wrang ... but Ah jist couldna stand the guy

You buy tickets online for Aberdeen games and you get asked for donations too. The fans project and community trust I think. Get that shit right in the bin Our works CEO is on $20 million plus a year and likes to do his thing about serving our communities to make them better places by giving back. I have pointed out our tax planning to ensure our tax exposure is the absolute minimum in every region we work in, goes against this principle and is why I don't partake.

Every year at our place, we get around £60 a head for the Mad Friday thing, which for around 300 workers, is quite a sizeable chunk of cash for folk that can easily pay their own way. During lockdown there was no shindig and they donated the money earmarked for it to charity, fair enough. I then made the suggestion that we should do this every year and pay for our own Mad Friday. I pushed for the funds to go to schools in poor areas. To say the reaction to this wasn't well received was an understatement. The entitlement was off the scale. I was genuinely taken aback by the abuse I got for suggesting it. I don't partake in Mad Friday and I also lose 10% of my yearly bonus because I won't do the charity stuff linked to it. We're meant to do it and post about it on the internal social media thing we use. Makes you want to boak. I still struggle to see why I am sort of being pushed out, as the oil industry up here dies. Was it something I said. I'm of the opinion that Utopia isn't happening in any of our lifetimes. No shit I hear you all say. You see the money being used to blow up the middle east and think how easily most of societys ills could be fixed if they really wanted it fixed and resources were used correctly.

I do like the idea, but I can't fathom why the conspiracy theorists are getting so worked up about it.

Am I the only one who finds the idea of a 15 minute city amazing?

Just one of the many things that shits me about the anti assisted dying religious argument - when they say ending someone's life peacefully and with dignity is playing god, all whilst the patient is hooked up to machines, being artificially kept alive; all because someone decided we need to preserve life at all costs. It's the most valuable thing and not for us to decide when to end it! My folks were (mum) and are (dad) of the mind that they would rather be allowed to pass peacefully with assistance at the point they become unaware and there is no realistic hope. I share that view - but I do understand the emotive nature of this and how people disagree. I see this from three key points: If I am going to have no quality of life, and going to be a burden who needs constant care, I don't want that. As soon as I lose my faculties I don't want to be a burden to others. There is a great cost to prolonged life when there is no hope (mostly emotional but to an great extent financial too). I don't want my family to have to suffer while I suffer. They still have lives to lead without worrying about my constant needs (my mum hung around for 2 weeks before she slipped away and we all agreed it was best for everyone as she had no hope of recovery. My dad could never have coped if she had gone home, and she wouldn't have wanted to be cared for 24/7. She was 'lucky' to go so quickly and peacefully) It puts a massive burden on our care services to keep people hanging on. I don't think we should be able to choose willy nilly when we go - but if we have made our wishes clear whilst compos mentis we should be allowed to go when we are in a position where we will have no quality of life and need support to be kept alive. Even the god fearing USA has assisted suicide in certain states. I want that choice. My choice. Not some god fearing politician. And not only within 6 months of dying - I don't want to be shitting my pants in a home for 10 years. Let me decide what's best for me.
