Ah. Then youâre asking the wrong person as thatâs not my subculture. For me my gut reaction is an image of grass, a small white pill sitting on it, and the track title and artist title above and below the little dent/line across the middle.

This is where I become an absolute eco fascist. It should be illegal to manufacture or sell packaging that canât be recycled easily.

What sort of track? What does it evoke?

Never heard of that one. Just googled and might not ram it to the top of my must list.

And surprisingly I saw what I think were the red arrows flying southwest presumably down the Great Glen. You may need to zoom in a bit. Mustâve been someoneâs birthday in Inverfarigaig.

Hah! Never tried it myself. I have however seen the beginning of Of Oz The Wizard (the film spliced and reordered alphabetically by dialogue). Itâs an utter headfuck but bizarrely genius. I canât watch for too long though. vimeo.com/150423718

You will need to compare this with the Dark Side of Oz.

And sorry for all the football posts, to those who havenât unfollowed me. Iâll stop now, in same way the Steve Clarke now also should.

Dreadful, dreadful, lemon dreadful. Historic levels of awful: some world class talent taken apart by a near minnow outfit who didnât even show plucky backs to the wall grit but instead had it handed to them on a plate. Embarrassing. #scoice

I know. I donât often talk football in here. Not that that was football.

Interesting! Donât know anything about him but good experiences and of course available.

Clarke has to go after Liechtenstein hasnât he? The SFA wouldnât keep him and he himself must know this is the end of the road. Tuesday lunchtime press conference?

Yes good call he might have. Who else is out of work? Don Cowie? Neil Warnock? Gareth Southgate�

Goal for Damian!
Argh, offside.
Of course it is.

And youâre right - the tournaments were easier than in the past. The highs were high but too rare.
comment in response to

Well you have to laugh! My more serious suggestion a couple of weeks back wouldâve been McInnes. No idea who else would be on the radar but I would hope the good team on paper would surely catch the eye of decent candidates.

Oh my goodness that was shocking goalkeeping. Limbs everywhere. Shouldâve been VARâd out but no excuse. Surely a goalie substitution now? Frankly any substitutions would be good.

Iâve defended Steve Clarke way longer than many have, but thereâs just a lack of fire in the belly, creativity, or willingness to experiment. If it was down to me, Iâd say a big thank you to him before the qualifiers start. Time for new energy. Of course, no idea whoâd be good. Postecoglu anyone?

Yes itâs a friendly. Yes itâs the end of the season and theyâre tired and the Icelanders play summer football. But youâre still allowed to try to win friendlies. Itâs explicitly in the rules.

Clumsy, amateurish rubbish. Dreadful goal to lose. Just dreadful. #scotland

I was once asked which from #Iceland âs famous father-son footballer combo I prefer, and honestly Iâm in two minds so Iâd happily go with eiĂ°ur GuĂ°johnsen.

Okay thatâs a relief. But a lucky goal - poor defending and the goalie arguably shouldâve got it. But of course weâll take it. 1-1. #scoice

STOP PLAYING KICKABOUT AT THE BACK IN FRONT OF THE OPPOSITION STRIKERS.

I mean, we can at least take solace from the fact we are up against one of world footballâs giants and are ourselves entirely devoid of any top class players with, say, hugely impactful European profile or long standing experience.
