You get 48 in a box so after the players and other staff have had one each the limited number will be about 20 or so?

GroundHopper app, will be my guess.

Folk into ground hopping can plug in every game they go to and add various details and it gives you wee reports etc. Quite cool, if that's yer thing.

BBC just had a show going through all of the old Scotland WC/Euro songs, it's worth a watch: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000wqdd/scotlands-football-jukebox

STV had a programme as well: https://player.stv.tv/episode/441x/scotland-we-can-boogie

Was it this one?

If you get a chance you should pick up Bob Crampsey - The first 100 years

It’s about the history of Scottish League Football from 1890-1990

Old book but a cracking read

Edit: Found a copy of it on Amazon

Just to add, while Hola is a good free one, I personally don't trust the free ones. Using a VPN can allow them to access a lot (and I mean a lot) of what you're doing online and they've got to be making money somehow.

Personally I pay for TunnelBear. It's not very much if you go for a year and they're big on privacy. Basically, they always work, don't go through my info and I know how they are getting their money.

Good luck!

The only place I've been able to find it is by jumping to 37:30 on saturday's sportscene broadcast, if you care that much.

Stonewaller. Again, in my totally impartial and neutral view from the away stand behind the goal...

web-capture.net/ lets you get a image of a site by putting the url, no need to visit it. This is the only way i read any DM articles.
I created this one a minute ago

Also, here's a version of the SPFL logo with the same background colour as the rest of the banner: http://i.imgur.com/5TguL9c.png

And here's a fully vectorised version http://www.filedropper.com/spfl

It sounds like this one?

It's got trips to world cups, although from memory it's a bit more focused on Mexico 86 and Italia 90.

I replaced with these to prevent them being separated again Amazon.com: BOLOXA Bluetooth Headphones 5.3 Wireless Earbuds IPX7 Waterproof & 12Hrs Long Battery Over-Ear Stereo Bass Earphones with Earhooks Running Headset with Mic & Storage Bag for Workout Gym Sports Black : Electronics

Check what name they use when connected to your phone and Google that, hopefully shows you your model.

If not I can recommend these great sound quality and a decent price. I've had 3 pairs but it's down to losing 1 bud and another set I knocked one out my ear at the top of a ladder.

Obviously, you have to get this

Wont solve the fear of it falling down, but in terms of access you can run all the cables to a face plate where you store your gaming console, etc llike this. You can get it in whatever configurations you need, so basically you never need to root around the back of the tv again!

Got a LED driver in the back of it. Just, two wires are going into it (black and red) and two white are coming out, looking to connect to something.

I've had exactly the same for years and you have got loads of great advice here. I'll add this book https://www.amazon.co.uk/Chimp-Paradox-Management-Programme-Confidence/dp/009193558X . I found it to help a lot.

I need to read it again as my anxiety has been steadily getting worse again recently.

I've been using one of these for the last two years and it's been excellent. Charges from USB in about 5 mins as well which is nice.

Doesn't have a nose hair attachment but its small enough that I can trim in there with with the corner of it. Great shave as well.

Sorry, £18. Bought it the moment the first electricity benefit came in (the £66 a month for six months). Obviously, the smaller the room the better. But it is very good. The only time I use my gas boiler is for cooking and the occasional bath now. Such as life will be this fucking winter.

I'm lucky, as it is only me I have to cater for. God fucking help actual families.

Here's the one I have https://www.amazon.com/LaGinza-PAB260-200MPH-2-Stroke-Handheld/dp/B08NPW7MRF/ref=sr_1_4?crid=4PR9TACLC9F0&keywords=proyama+leaf+blower&qid=1664988829&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIwLjAwIiwicXNhIjoiMC4wMCIsInFzcCI6IjAuMDAifQ%3D%3D&s=lawn-garden&sprefix=proyama+leaf+b%2Clawngarden%2C828&sr=1-4&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.18ed3cb5-28d5-4975-8bc7-93deae8f9840 lightweight and actually I use it most for cleaning my garage.

Even though I'm away across the sea I have been surprised how much I missed the footy this week. I get the Premiership highlights Monday and the Lower leagues Wednesday. This week, nothing.

The NFL started I suppose but I can't in good conscience watch that. I got a lot concussions playing footy and they got progressively easier to get and had to stop because of it.

I watched the film "Head Games" where they looked at NFL players in their 30s who couldn't get the months of the year in order and lost their cars in car parks. The Aaron Hernandez story sealed the deal. A 25 year old with a brain of an 80 year old that impaired his judgement and behaviour. See https://www.amazon.com/Unnecessary-Roughness-Inside-Trial-Hernandez/dp/1602866074/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1TP0Q5CKSM7VX&keywords=aaron+hernandez&qid=1663276689&rnid=2941120011&s=books&sprefix=aaron+hernan%2Caps%2C896&sr=1-4

Roll on the highlights!

I use NordVPN, we travel around and it’s really handy. It is on the expensive side though, maybe 80 for a couple of years I think, but means I can watch the football when in Asia, and the Mrs and kids can watch Asian tv here. All good.

Proton VPN offer a free VPN option which is supposed to be quite good. I've been with Private Internet Access for several years a paid customer but for a number of reasons I'm switching over to Proton's pay-for option this week.

I can wholeheartedly recommend the Moto G line for budget smartphones that don't feel like cheap tat. I used the G6 Plus for several years and the only weak spot was the camera.

If you're looking for 5G ready on a budget, the G50 is £190. 5000mAh battery should keep you going for a while and it has TurboPower for when you need a quick boost. Review here.

Aye they're an odd one in that they can be counter-productive gubbing more than needed. Fwiw I use these and chunk them down into basically crumbs.

It's my noggin that keeps me up too. Racing away permanently. Really hope you find something that works for you as the change in getting decent sleep is crazy. I still have the odd day when it creeps back and realise how much of a zombie I used to be.

I use a Lilly Brush and I have no idea how it works but god damn does it work brilliantly. Pricey but it lifts an absolutely ridiculous amount of hair and fibers trapped in carpets or seats.

You can buy clothes that have cooling systems if you will. this is what I found on amazon But I saw on an episode of gadget man a jacket that had a system of pipes running through it that cooled or heated the wearer depending on the setting you used in a wee pack in the jacket.

this should do the trick

They do a line of shirts and the like if the kits are too rich for your blood.

You could ask them to try one of these perhaps?

Did wonders for my mum's dog, and if they're in any way decent they'll recognise the double benefit of (a) not stressing out their neighbour and (b) their dog feeling more relaxed when they're out.

You've zero idea why she ended up in hospital. Neither do I.

I've been using headphones like these for years. Comfy (once you get used to them), battery lasts ages and the sound quality is decent

Been using Vancedapp for the last few weeks after I saw a post on r/piracy

It's stock YouTube but removes all adverts. You need to enable third party app installation, and I use a throwaway Google account to login to it.

It's amazing. Comes with YouTube and YouTube music. Both with no adverts.

I have this one and it’s pretty good

This stuff is the shit

Dugin has never been really directly linked to anything official though, apart from a weird far-right/leftist syncretic party that he founded alongside Eduard Limonov (the latter being the more interesting of the two IMO).

Foundations of geopolitics was just one of his writings and while some of his predictions have came true, he's just seen as a bit of a nutter amongst Russian people. The book 'We need to talk about Putin' is an interesting read because it suggests that Putin doesn't really read philosophy or has much of a 'grand strategy' as some might suggest.

First Episode on BBC Iplayer

Cracking to see the that the effort the guys who run this podcast is paying off.

> I stated which rule was broken previously. The rule which a club must not have any outstanding tax debts upon application for said licence.

That’s not a rule. That’s an imprecise statement of a principle behind one set of the licensing requirements. All clubs will have tax liabilities (VAT etc.) as a creditor during the application prices. That’s not an issue.

The UEFA regulations are concerned about overdue payables. There are definitions about what a payable is and when it becomes overdue. If you’re going to claim rules were broken you should reference those.

> Evidence from the wee tax case showed that HMRC first made contact with rangers around a debt around November 2010. With a demand for payment made by HMRC in February 2011

I think the demands for payment were made in May. Regardless, even if it was February then the UEFA regulations for issuing a license in March 2011 required no overdue payables as at 31st December 2010.

Article 50 – No overdue payables towards employees and social/tax authorities 1 The licence applicant must prove that as at 31 March preceding the licence season it has no overdue payables (as defined in Annex VIII) towards its employees or social and tax authorities as a result of contractual and legal obligations towards its employees that arose prior to the previous 31 December.

Need a VPN installed on your phone/tablet/laptop whatever. There are loads to choose from - I use NordVPN. The good ones you have to pay a small fee for.

Then set your location to somewhere outside of the UK & Ireland. Once you've done that, go to Rangers TV and buy the yearly subscription package.

You can then watch all matches (except Europa League) through your subscription.

Also worth pointing out that while ScoGov are dragging their heals making an app to display your QR code you can use the Irish (or French) Covid Certificate app (called Covid Tracker, with a yellow logo).

It gives you a handy place to store and display your vaccine record as just a QR code and shows it as an EU Vaccination record. So for anyone who wants their UK vaccine proof in an official app, the Irish app seems like the place to go.

iOS

Android

This will see you right.

I got one of these and haven't looked back - Flipbelt - They are a bit pricey but I've never had any issues with mine and have had it for about 6 years now, still looks good as new.

I always run with my phone in my hand for tunes (I don't have a smart watch or anything) and you can set Strava up to record an activity on the go.

Alternatively you could go for an entry level smart watch just to see how you get on to start with - I have this but am planning on upgrading to something a little more sophisticated since my gf got me a heart-rate monitor. The Vivosport is a great wee device, has GPS, excellent battery life, heart rate monitoring etc.

Early doors obviously, but now that Kyogo seems to be Nakamura, Moussa & prime-Roy Keane in one jersey, if I were from the bunnish side of town I'd be making Slippy an early birthday gift: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dodot-Activity-Nappies-Size-6-10/dp/B07LGGJ655/ref=sr\_1\_3?c=ts&dchild=1&keywords=Nappies&qid=1628435018&refinements=p\_4%3ADodot&s=baby&sr=1-3&ts\_id=60246031

I've got this one for the moment. Was a Christmas gift from my parents the other year as I was just getting started in collecting vinyl's. It's decent and does the job. I'll probably upgrade to a better one in the coming years and donate that one to a charity/music shop or something.

If services do block VPNs you're best off avoiding the big names like PIA, NordVPN, and ExpressVPN, as they'll look for IP addresses from their servers first.

You could try something like Mullvad, which is really well reviewed and is small enough to often go undetected by the a lot of services. I'm able to use it with Netflix.
