Mess-up madness.
Letting off steam after a hard academic year is all well and good but some naughty kids simply take it too far.
In Wednesday’s Courier we reveal details of the school where pupils crossed the line. Tsk tsk.
All senior pupils were sent home in disgrace. Every man (and indeed woman) jack of them. That’ll learn them (one would hope). We have all the details.
Meanwhile, we have news of a massive multi-million pound boost for Dundee University. Mum’s the word for now but you will be among the first to receive all the details, which may well leave you leaping for joy. Certainly if you are of a boffinry-bent.
Dundee FC officials are being overwhelmed. But in a good way. Imagine a row of hot cakes. Then imagine just how quickly they would sell. An impressive and arresting image isn’t it?
Well now imagine those cakes are not sweet treats but gold-dust briefs. And the punters are not well-heeled individuals looking for a sugary snack, but football fans intent on seeing their team lift a trophy.
Still with me?
What I am trying to say if that tickets for Dundee’s massive date with destiny (if indeed Dumbarton can be described in such a manner) are flying out of the club shop (not literally). A sell out could be on the (metaphorical) cards. We have the full story.
It looks like there could be a crackdown on fat oil workers. If that sounds controversial it’s because it is. Find out more in your inquisitive (but always svelte) Courier.
In sport, a Dundee United player is losing his battle to be fit for the Scottish Cup final. Oof. A sore one in more ways than one.
Meanwhile, their opponents’ main man isn’t downhearted about missing out on the young player of the year award. Which is slightly better news.
Also, Courier columnist Christian Dailly gives his take on Jose Mourinho and the bus (or two) he parked at Anfield.
It is just possible that any one of these stories, taken on its own merits, would be enough to tempt you into at least considering a purchase. When, however, one takes them as a collection, it is quite feasible to think you may consider Wednesday’s Courier fits pretty darned comfortably into the “unmissable” category. If you are so minded please do pick up your copy (and remember even if none of the above tales tickle your fancy, there are many more to tantalise, thrill, entice and entertain). Alternatively, why not try our digital edition (I’ve still never had a satisfactory answer to this important question).
