Hi,

My wee boy Danny (9) has asked for tickets for an away game from Santa. I know this is a long shot but if anybody can become Santa and supply these id be very grateful. Any game tomorrow 😂 or soon after the winter bReak would be accepted. Thanks and Merry Christmas.

You will get Partick Thistle in the Cup no problem.

Yep dra seem to be getting good amount for that. Away games getting harder with the allocations only ones seem to be fine are st Johnstone Motherwell killie and livi. If you want any for any of those I can happily ask for an extra 2 see what I get.

So with my vegetable peeling chores done (turnip, carrots, parsnips and potatoes and sprouts yuck, boy are my arms sore) Mrs T has ushered me out of HER kitchen to prepare for big day tomorrow. Speaking of Mrs T, can I just apologise for any food shortages any of you came across as Mrs T has bought a food mountain both for our festivities and I think the whole of Northampton when we go there come Saturday.

So can I just wish ED007 and all the posters on here a merry Christmas and hope Santa will be good to you all.

We are going to "Midnight Mass" at 9.30pm tonight in our local church, but Mrs T seems happy enough as it let's her do her cooking early on Christmas morning. What do you think are my chances of breakfast in bed, am I brave enough or stupid enough to ask her ha ha .

Parsnips Tim? Are you even Scottish.

24 Dec 2019 21:43:40
You won't be far from me then Timalloy! Merry Christmas.

{Ed007's Note - Wait a minute, if he's away on Saturday where's the tickets for the Glasgow Derby going?}

Hi ed007 merry christmas to you and yours. Hope the food bank reached a suitable target brilliant idea am sure there is a few smiling familys tomorrow same again next year. sterling work on the web site. hail hail.

{Ed007's Note - We completely smashed it mate, £1450 in total is an unbelievable amount and all of you deserve a huge pat on the back. Fr King was lost for words - which doesn't happen often lol.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.}

Hi Ed Fr King was in my parish for a short time until a new pp was appointed, he used to phone me to come up for a chat regularly found him to be a really nice person. The last time I saw him was when our parish priest’s own father died a couple of years ago and was buried from Fr Kings parish hope he is doing ok.

{Ed007's Note - Fr King's actually my cousin, Killy and maybe I am biased but he is one of the best priests kicking about. He has revitalised St Peter's and has brought the whole parish together as it should be.}

Merry Christmas Ed and the rest of the guys.
I don't post much but enjoy reading most days. Thanks for all your hard work and banter this year.

{Ed007's Note - Thanks mate, merry Christmas to you. Your New Year resolution is to get posting more often and get involved in the madness.}

24 Dec 2019 16:15:22
Ed 007 and fellow banterers Merry Christmas and may the Christ child bring peace and joy to you and yours and like Him may the Blessed Mother hold you in her arms. God Bless.

Am I the only one that doesn't want big benkovic back?

24 Dec 2019 11:02:19
Always injured kev.

24 Dec 2019 11:14:24
Exactly my grievance mally. We already have a injury prone centre back, we don't need another.

24 Dec 2019 11:50:14
Has there been a report that we are wanting him back?
I don't think he would get in the team and I don't think we would bring him in to sit on the bench.

24 Dec 2019 12:06:01
He won't play much with both Kris on form.

24 Dec 2019 12:31:38
With the amount of games we play it wouldn't make sense getting someone so injury prone. Does anyone know if the South American defender being touted is any good or just paper talk?

24 Dec 2019 12:48:46
Would rather have Benko than the Brazilian guy we've been linked with.

24 Dec 2019 12:54:45
Read reports that said he's quite slow and not always the most comfortable on the ball.

24 Dec 2019 13:24:08
Big benk not for me lads 🎅.

24 Dec 2019 13:33:12
Royjac I am sure you said the same thing about el hammed.

{Ed007's Note - Who, the Rogic of the defence? 😉

24 Dec 2019 16:24:41
We’ve not had a lot of success with South American’s other than Izzy. Juninho was pants and Raphael’s second name gave it away.

24 Dec 2019 16:47:14
Nah never said that Kev, or certainly don't remember saying that.

Although I'm not really keen on players coming back, sometimes you are better with the devil you know and all that.

24 Dec 2019 18:02:30
Not if that devil can't stay fit enough to play roy.

24 Dec 2019 19:22:30
Looked at the Brazilian guy on the YouTube 😏 looked to have decent pace but also seemed to read the game well and good at standing tackles/ dispossessing opponents but it was a YouTube video after all.
