I look forward to my regular trips north (8 or 9 times a season) with great relish. Last season I took my local Priest (a Blackpool FC fan) to the Hurlford v Talbot Junior cup 1/4 final and he was completely awestruck by the occasion as a whole, loving the ground, passionate but friendly support, the play and most of all the unexpected (by him) high standard of the whole occasion. 5 or 6 quid for a quality product. Long may it continue, or at least as long as I have a company car to cope with the 400+ mile round trips. I don't mean this unkindly but on the first visit it does feel a little like visiting the twighlight zone where football has stood still, makes it a fine and gripping experience. If you think you are able to sniff me out at a game, tap me on the shoulder and we'll have a natter. Back in the day at Auchinleck Working Mens Club if you tapped anybody on the shoulder that meant you had to dance with them. God I loved the 70's!

God knows it's a grade of football that I can see from the inside isn't what you would call short of material to have a pop at, but to appear periodically with exactly the same patter...

Those people are the arseholes in IMO. My heart fucking bleeds for him. No, wait, it doesn't. My heart bleeds for his 10 year old son who was left in tears whilst his father was ejected from the ground for being an abusive dickhead, leaving the boy to be comforted by randon fans round about him as he sat parentless while said father was outside the ground filming and uploading another of his rants to try and garner some internet fame. If you're speaking to your wee pal again about his "problems", tell him his main problem is that he's a shite dad and a c**t of the first order.

Since when was being a deplorable, horrible b*****d of a man not widely considered a problem? Perhaps if he has genuine health concerns he should consider, for the good of the young lad the whole of Scotland seen humiliated, seeking help instead of behaving like a grade A arsehole. GIRUY Gordon ya arse. Please don't say that, you'll upset his wee friend Quantum Leap. He has problems don't you know. He is above reproach.

I was a few rows behind them, the kid was begging, literally begging, his dad not to start his shite and pulling at his arm trying to get him to sit down and stop swearing and shouting at the Falkirk player and Killie stewards, crying his wee eyes out. Sawers can fall off a cliff for doing that to his son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTG Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Well firstly, the assumption that senior football is a "social disease" is a load of shite. That in turn invites ridicule. That quickly shifts to the search for bites (taken in spades) and then becomes a circular heap of pish with some decent levels of mud slinging. It's a recipe for a p and b saga/soap opera. The boy with the popcorn gif early doors called it spot on. It's just the Internet though. Hints of Gold Forum emerging all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Just reached the end of p1 so far, but if Junior football and its governance is such a paradise how come more clubs (numerically or proportionally) fold or go into abeyance every year than Senior football (assuming OP means all Senior football not SPFL - no-one in SPFL has folded since Gretna FC and, depending on your definition, Rangers)? How come you find more threads in this sub-forum criticising how things are run and who runs them than any other? Also can something really be a 'social disease' when well over 90% of fans choose it?

Hampden Diehard Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Very disappointed that the original post does not have the word "toxic" in it. If it's not toxic, it's actually OK and there's no cause for alarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
