Mathew Pryderi Pritchard was born on 30th March 1973. Those more “mature” Academicals amongst us (of which there are many) will likely be unaware of this skateboard wielding, testicle piercing, vomit drinking Welshman. Some of the younger set may however be aware that “Pritchard” was the co-founder of hit MTV series Dirty Sanchez, and as [...]

Said Kate. Well, for all those “stay-at-homers” this Saturday afternoon (cos the 1st XV match was cancelled- boo-hoo!), all we can say is “You missed out – big style!” This was a cracking league match, full of good old fashioned “blood and guts”, moments of sheer class (from both teams), howling errors (from both teams), [...]

GHK v Accies – Round 1!
It was a lovely sunny autumn day and conditions were ripe for a great game of rugby however straight from the offset, Uncle Nigel (sporting a fantastic tan from a week golfing in Tunisia) and captain Ross chassels had a quandary…there were 22 players and a starting 15 had to be selected. After much debate, [...]

Eric Weiz died on 31st October 1926. Otherwise known as Harry Houdini, Weiz was, until today, regarded as the most prolific escape artist of all time. How ironic then that the Glasgow Accies organ grinder Davey Wilson would snatch this title on the afternoon of the Accies annual Halloween Disco……..how ironic indeed. Accies held on [...]

You just can’t get….
….enough of a good thing! Or so SHE said….. Perhaps making up for your Webmaster’s touchline absence and errant behaviour in Edinburgh yesterday afternoon, the match reports have been positively flooding into the Bat-Cave today! Here’s another view of yesterday’s exploits from one of our very own elder statesmen – contrast and compare boys and [...]
