  1. What a fucking state to get yourself into :lol:
    I find myself musing that, over most of your contributions Jupe, such an angry wee gnome.
    Imagine the flip side, a guy from Burnley living in Falkirk posting similar on a regular basis. You don’t think he’d get short shrift on here? Hmmmm
  2.  

    Like you, I'm currently domiciled in England, with family on both sides of the border, but I'm prepared to give this undertaking :

    As soon as a date for Indyref2 is announced I will make sure I am living in, and registered to vote in Scotland  on that date.

    Assuming  a win for yes I'll be more than happy to make my move back to Scotland permanent and will look forward to consider myself, not just Scottish, but also a proud European.

    Britain can go and f**k itself.

    And what if a vote for No, can Britain still go f*ck itself? You’re playing to the gallery on here it’s clear, nothing else. You moan like f*ck on P&B constantly about where you live in England and continually disparage your townsfolk. You contribute nothing but complaints about where you currently reside, reckon they’ll be f*ckin glad to see you leave, I know I would.

    Most sports actually. You're either a troll, or an insanely stupid person who doesn't understand the rules of football. Probably both.
     
     
    Anyway, the greeting about Brown is way over the top. I see players trying to get reactions in almost every single game. Loads of players celebrate in front of the opposition fans as well. Why is it being made out to be some sort of mad thing confined to this player? 


    The rules on deliberately fouling a player off the ball, with the intention of provoking a reaction seem pretty clear to me, Brown doesn’t play within them. You don’t see that, but call ME stupid. Aye right.![emoji849] Jeez, I’m oot.
  4. Seriously ?

    Yeah seriously. Morelos reaction is unforgivable but Browns cynical intention was clear. He fouls his opponent and is rewarded for his actions. If Morelos ignores him and runs back into position, Brown follows him and continues to niggle until he gets the bite he’s after. It’s only a matter of time, and would be with most players, never mind someone as temperamental as the targeted Morelos.

    Is that really an acceptable part of the game? I can’t think of any other sport where it’s so casually tolerated.
  5. Just going back to the ‘Football’ for a minute, the Liner sees Morelos lash out and is rightly sent off. Scott Brown initiates the incident (however wrong the idiotic retaliation is) deliberately clipping Morelos with a sly dig from behind, nowhere near play, but stays on the park. A fair and impartial decision would have been to send them both packing. Brown knows exactly what he’s doing, it isn’t within the laws of the game, but he goes unpunished and his team rewarded. How can that be right?


  6. Leckie sums up Browns actions pretty well, and people seriously question why there’s disorder at Old Firm games when you’ve got this clown determined to pour petrol on the flames of an already volatile fixture for 90 mins. Many will say he did his job getting Morelos dismissed, fair enough if that’s what you want from your club captain, including the rest of his mindless antics, but surely he has to accept some responsibility for the unwanted trouble that follows.

    I won’t excuse Morelos, but it seems Brown is not only condoned in his behaviour as a player but positively encouraged, especially when it comes to winding up the h** b*stards. Jeez.
  7. I detect sarcasm, so you are not happy with Mr Gerrard?
    He's in his first managerial post and he should be given another year.
    Next year he will have to deliver a trophy or else.


    How could any of us be happy with how this season has turned out, another loss to that mob and getting nowhere near in competing for honours across the board. I’ll stick with SG in the hope that he really DOES want to turn things around at our Club. I’m sure he knows that second best won’t cut it.
  8. He's signed 20 players this season.  Do you have the appetite for more of what he has to offer?

    Yep I do, the worse thing for the Club right now would be for SG to throw in the towel and admit this gig isn’t for him. He accepted a huge job in terms of its expectations, I hope he picks up the gauntlet and shows that his managerial abilities can stretch beyond Neil Lennon. The views of the rest of the desperate band waggon on here don’t really matter do they. It’s us Vs them.

     

  9. Gutted, deserved a point this afternoon only to waste all that hard work so carelessly late on. Morales can GTF now for me, if someone will have him. 5 reds this term ffs, it takes a special kind of stupid to be outsmarted by Scott fuckin Broon.
    The League was over before today though, to take something from the game would have been a small consolation. Hope SG can dust himself down now, see that he’s still only just starting out, pick the team up and start his preparation plans for the Summer. We’ve a f*ckin long way to go.

  10. And of those 1 in 35 how many who would put their tendencies in to action and also have the fortune for a lone toddler to cross their path at night?

    I’m not suggesting that someone was purposefully on the prowl that evening Serge, rather that she unfortunately presented herself as an opportunity to someone, who made a snap decision to do her harm, instead of returning her to safety. It isn’t beyond the realms of possibility nowadays sadly.

  11. Watched the Netflix series, interesting stuff but haven’t changed my mind. Think she woke up, perhaps distressed, wandered out of an unlocked door, disorientated looking for her parents and was snatched by an opportunist with wrongful intentions, never to be seen again. Wrong place, wrong time. Don’t think the McCanns had anything directly to do with her disappearance, other than their obvious neglect and downright carelessness.

  12. Couple of observations;

    1 - Never drink in a bar that doesn’t sell Tennents. 

    2 - Splitting the bill at a restaurant is obviously the decent thing to do, and adding up to the £ is obviously tight behaviour, but what is much worse is ordering a starter, a steak, a dessert and alcohol and expecting to pay the same as someone who has had a starter and a main and been on soft drinks all night. If you spend significantly more than someone else then you should be putting in significantly more. I’d be mortified if somebody is subsiding me based on ‘etiquette.’ 

    Think you can forgive the odd slip, especially in a large group but doing it intentionally is just bad form. Years back when the kids were small, we went on three or four summer holidays with a group of 5/6 families and extended friends. One couple in particular (from Queensferry) would order the full business from the menu, starters, mains plus sides and desserts, quaff their way through two decent bottles of wine and then get stuck into the coffees/mints and brandy. Without fail he was the first to pipe up ‘are we just sharing the bill?’ whilst she nodded with approval, ‘aye that seems fair’. Cheeky fat bassas.

    I guess we were as much at fault as no-one ever really challenged them. Perhaps because they were quite a jolly couple, no one wanted to offend them despite their gluttony on the cheap.
