Cupar Eagles lost 6-1 on Monday night, in a fairly tight first half we found ourselves leading 1-0 , then losing 3 quick goals. Second half was even worse with Harry 'the cat' Hood having a nightmare losing a couple of soft goals.
So it's back to the drawing board for the management team, who face a tough job in the coming months.

Dundee Win Cup
It was a great day on Saturday as my football team Dundee FC beat our rivals Dundee United 1 nil to lift the Evening Tele Cup. We played really well with the defence and midfield looking a lot more solid. And with loads of effort we never let United settle and you would have though that we were the Premier League club.
The winning goal was also a cracker from young striker Bryan Deasley who shot home from just outside the box. I though that new manager Alex Rae was my MOM, and he rarely made a bad pass. It was a great night for us Dundee fans and it was wonderful to see a lot of happy smiling people for a change. As we were very poor last season.
We must now keep working hard and hopefully add two strikers to the squad and we should do well.
Here's to a good season and prove to a lot of people that Dundee Football Club are back.

Marky Ramone in Dundee
In what was a trip back down merory lane, seeing Marky Ramone last night in Dundee and it was great. It's 30 years since I got the first Ramones album and I only seen them once in 1980. Marky was joined by punk band AntiProduct and they done a full Ramones set starting with Rockaway Beach and finishing with the classic Blitzkrieg Bop, they done most of their hits and done my favourite I wanna be well. Marky looks well for his age, he must be in his 50's now.
Support came from local Dundee Dirty Little Middens.
Late night got home around 1am and had to go to work at 06:00.
Marky will play the Wickerman festival on friday and maybe next year I might go down.

Cupar Eagles
Cupar Eagles got beat 4-1 tonight at St.Andrews. We played well in patches, but the other team were just that little bit fitter.
Cove Rangers
Well I enjoyed my trip to watch Dundee F.C play at Allan park on Saturday, they beat Cove Rangers 3-1. I had prematch drink with Bruce from Forres and Arnie and the two Billy's from Inverness.
Now to the game and we scored on 4 minutes when trialist Keith Shevlin netted, we controled much of the game with the defence looking solid. I like the look of Gary McKenzie at the back and Midfielder Ross Harris also looks good. Into the second half and new keeper Roy makes a bad blunder when he failed to catch a simple freekick and the ball ended in the net, we pushed forward looking to gain the lead and Harris and McLaren both hit the woodwork, and then McLaren had a good goal disallowed....it looked onside to me. Bobby Mann scored from a Harris header near the end and then McLaren scored from the spot after Scott Gates was fouled in the box.
We then had a few more pints in the social club, before getting the 19:25 train home. A good day out and thanks to Bruce and his son Euan for their company.

Gizmo Fatcat
Gizmo is my 13 year old cat, who is just so lovely and I must post a picture of her as she is just like my best buddy. She has lost some teeth now, but that does not stop her stealing from my other two cats who will get a wee mention later on. The maddest thing she has done is bring a boiled egg into my flat! God knows where she got it.
Here's a photo of Gizmo http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h75/billyt_01/137Gizmo.jpg
