Yes bring on the big fish from a small pond, because we will roll you over and send you on your way. Favourites to get knocked out I assume is what you mean.Let's face Celtic are a waste of space in the champs league, as I said before you won it around the last time Spuds won the title. Nobody takes the SPL teams seriously.

You're not an Arsenal fan, you're somebody who says they are but doesn't want to stand up and be counted when comedians like Mac give it large. You be better off supporting Man Ure with all the other plastics.

Keep wishing Jock boy, cos that's all it will ever be , a wish. Scots fans are good for a laugh, a bit like the SPL.

Like I said before you've obvioulsy missed your vocation as a comedian but you obvioulsy have a sense of humour as you support Celtic and everbody knows they're good for a laugh.

Do you also remember the last time Spuds won the league?

Last time Celtic played in the Champions League qualifier with a new manager was 4 years ago... and they got battered 5-0 by the Slovakian champions. The regular competition in the SPL makes it doubtful they'll even be in the hat to draw Arsenal.


Personally I'd rather Celtic and Arsenal didn't qualify for the Champions League group stages as it's lost a lot of the gloss in recent years being overloaded with British teams, especially in the quarters and semi finals.

With the makeup of the Arsenal squad I'd say it's more likely to implode with recriminations - and if anything I'd say they'd sink rather than swim.

> City are going to make some of us look silly this season


I fully expect City to be knocking on at least the top 4 this season. They've done a lot of business so far (Barry, Santa Cruz, Tevez, Adebayor) and I expect they'll ramp it up further during August with strong additions to rest of team. If they sign John Terry then they will be a real threat not so much because of his football but because he is a winner and that will rub off on their team ethics.

Those sort of signings, en mass unlike the token Robinho signing last year, have got to give you confidence as a team. It's debatable whether Hughes can handle them I suppose as we see most seasons from the Chlesea experiment it's not always about the players on the pitch but the strength of the manager too. The owner doesn't seem to want to meddle as much as Roman does though so who knows.

    • I used to buy a brand of olive oil called 'Il Casolare'. It was unfiltered, often on offer in Sainsbury's and came in a really nice bottle with a stopper. When it was finished, I'd soak the label off, fill it with Morrison's own-brand vermouth and use it for cooking as it lasts longer than keeping wine open. One night there was very little else left to drink, so we got into it - I told people it was a difficult to find artisanal brand I'd brought back from Barcelona and that it should be pronounced 'Vermut'. People loved it. I gave away a couple of bottles as Christmas presents the next year.
    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
    • Since I am of a certain vintage now, not sure if what I am going to suggest is even still around but here goes… use to be able to buy “dummy/mock papers on line and also had mini synopsis of Shakespeare plays specifically covering students wanting to gain a better understanding of play before taking mocks/ exams. Only know this as many many moons ago, struggled with English Literature and Language and this was the avenue-my parents went down. Also was at this point in my life, educated abroad as part of my fathers job.
