V for Vendetta Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I was bored recently and frustrated by the whole of scottish football I decided to start my own blog both to vent a bit of unhappiness, make space for the ranting I usually do in the office or pub and ultimately put forward my plan for how it should be done. Now being slightly pished when I started this I decided to keep the "V" theme and title each post based on a chapter of the V for Vendetta graphic novel. Lets just say I barely got started (just 2 posts) before feeling both poncy as fuck for writing a blog and also wondering "whats the fcking point anyway?". http://vforvicissitude.wordpress.com/ Feel free to tear me to shreds on this one and I just know many of you will, probably deservedly so. PS - I can't decide now whether to keep going, revisit the whole thing in a less gay format or just delete the bog and get on with my life. I'm sure you'll also make plenty of suggestions on that score. ** Mods if this feels like shameless self publicising or something please bin the thread by all means, I won't take it personally..

V for Vendetta Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 Totally. I can feel the dust in my eyes. I have no idea where this was going anyway hence I just chucked it out there before I deleted. Seems I better hurry up and push the delete button. Link to comment
Bluto10 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 yeah go fot it. it was pish. even tup could do better. Link to comment
Chrisyboy81 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I think it makes a lot of sense V, if that means anything to you. I wouldn't delete it, keep adding to it it's good. Link to comment
tup Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 tup could do better. You can take that as a compliment V since I have no peers. Stick with it min, ignore the weegie who offers no opinions of his own, on anything, but is full of derogatory insults. Link to comment
a don in oz Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Don't delete it. It's your voice about something you care about... if other's think it's pish then that's their issue. Stick with it... and even if you don't, it's something of yours out there. Link to comment

V for Vendetta Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 All comments equally appreciated on this one, including bluto and millertimes. Here's a question for you all. Have any of you tried writing a blog? How does it feel reading it back? Reading my attempt I feel like a right dick :-) The general drift of the opening posts was to set a bit of background before getting into the detail of where I think we should be changing scottish football. And a lot of it is just the sort of things people debate here and on other forums. I just fancied having a crack at putting more detail and thought into it and fleshing out the ideas a bit. Never got that far though. Link to comment

Bobby Connor Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Just about any form of written self expression is good. There used to be a site by a member on here, 'My Dons Hell'. Was a great read. Link to comment
Bluto10 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 does it grate you that i dont deem you important enough to respond to your mince digs? (which, ironically, id imagine could be used to describe where you live too ) no need to be touchy, i'm not being serious. Link to comment

What an absolute cracker of a term, I'm going to make it my mission to incorporate it into daily conversation as much as is humanly possible. Link to comment

Aye it's a pity Stoney packed that in, instead preferring to concentrate on writing 'FUCK THE WORLD' in blood on his bedroom wall every evening, at least it's red, in a nod to the Dons.

tup Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 You could always write a Dons fan style book, after the illustrious efforts of, erm, well, none of them are great but our fanbase's literary efforts are pretty much symmetrical with the lame offerings from the team, so that's neat at least.
