A bit scary on the top tier when the lads were jumping about but it had a bit of character. Edited By Dagen...

My take on things. Falkirk - where they deserve to be having tried to cheat their way to the Premier league (just like Inverness). As my Buddies say - beating St Mirren all those times two seasons ago counted for nothing - you were forced onto a level playing field which is only fair considering te...

Phil Jupitus writes about the Buzzcocks in his recent Radio times column - probably to advertise the documentary you've just mentioned....

Didn't bother taping anything, but I notice BBC2 show an hours highlights on Fridays at 23-35. This Friday's programme will be the third of a scheduled six and features Franz Ferdinand, Charlatans and DJ Yoda - possibly others too.
