It’s a big day in Peterheeeeeeed as Celtic roll into town on Scottish Cup duty.
All 4,000 plus tickets sold, scaffolded out terracing has been erected to give most folk the chance of actually seeing the action at the normally non banked standing areas. Weather forecast is for heavy rain. Oh dear.
Personally I would love Peterhead to get Aberdeen in the next round. Or Arbroath.
The Dons fans’ MoodSwing-o-meter continues to read Affa Cheery, following the howitzer shot Arnason goal against Dundee United, punting the not-too-popular Ricky Foster to Bristol City (and getting money in!) and a routine seeing off of Forfar Athletic yesterday. It was strange following the vidiprinter updates at my desk yesterday and not going through convulsions of agony and despair, kicking things and swearing prodigiously.
Sponsorship Mis-fire….?
Peterhead manager Jim McInally does a promotional photo-opportunity with the William Hill Scottish Cup. I’ve worked out that this is Arbroath High Street, outside the Hills Bookie Shop. Pity they got Ladbrokes across the road in shot.
spent half a work morning on Google Street view to puzzle out the location from my initial ‘that’s not Peterhead’ observation.
