  1. How long will it be before these become the new xl bullies.
  2. Harsh, but fair. Another way to stop a horse running is for me to put money on it.
  3. I think that's different from what you said before. The governing bodies should promote the game, but you originally questioned spending choices.
  4. My pal was his strike partner for Coatbridge High. I believe Sharpe did the heavy lifting in that pairing.
  5. Need is as contentious as deserving. It's also not reallocation of a central fund, it's individuals exercising choice on how they spend their own money. If someone from Glasgow decides to shell out on an Arsenal season ticket instead of spending it on Clyde my opinion on it doesn't matter. Personally, I wouldn't, it's vastly overpriced and inconvenient, so I won't. I'd still go if I was in London or watch on the telly if it's on.
  6. I think the multiple cameras at different angles and monitors will allow them to see the point the ball is played. Anyway, I don't like it any more than you, but it does what it's supposed to. If the offside rule stays as it is, it's a case of living with VAR or scrapping it altogether, but I don't think that's very likely.
  7. I understood your post to mean you felt Scottish football was more deserving. Mine was pointing out there are even more deserving causes.
  8. This is the problem. They've brought a facility that can measure to the nth degree. Once it has done that, the operator has no problem. It could be a millimetre or a kilometre. Offside is offside, over the line is over the line. Do we have to change the rule ie clear daylight, if so how much daylight? Something more radical?
  9. Traitor! I don't buy from any countries we've been at war with. Hence the reason I'm naked and live in a cave.
  10. Do some of you think there's a moral high ground that can be achieved by not watching English football? Where are the lines in the sand? I won't watch Celtic or Rangers.
  11. When people sneeze near me, the reaction is more along the lines of... "Hoi, use a hankie, blow your nose for fucksake, go to the toilet and do that..."
  12. Fucking Hell. If I was on a plane now, I'd crash it deliberately.
  13. I don't disagree that they're idiots but who would pay more than is paid by the existing tv companies. The perception they have always had is Scottish football is a schedule filler, when there's nothing else on.
  14. By the time Hampden has been paid for, there would be no money for the clubs.
  15. Aye, the walk actually takes two days because of the number of chapels they pass. It's a feat of endurance in that heat.
  16. League 1 and 2 aren't on that much, although Wrexham have attracted a bit of interest. Stockport is a great story, championship level to non-league and part time before going back up the divisions again, Tranmere, not dissimilar. I'm far more interested in English lower division football, more so since 2012 when I decided I would never have anything concerning Rangers and Celtic on my telly. (I watch the NI games as well, mainly because I've been to a couple. South of the border, I don't see as much, but watch for Bohemians results.
  17. At least he's free to concentrate on the league now.
