  1. One of the things that distinguishes football from the rest of the worlds most popular sports is the low scoring system in football. As a result of this goals are much more valuable and celebrated as such. Now when a goal goes in part of the joy is tempered as you await a possible VAR referral/judgement. The very thing that makes football unique is now being damaged as the officials look for a reason to disallow the goal. VAR GTF
  2. The RBS collapse was triggered by the ill fated takeover of ABN Amro, while Wilson would have a role it’s a bit of a stretch to label him as a ‘key figure’.
  3. I’m struggling to understand why Dublin not renown as a big football city gets two stadium on the list yet football daft Scotland (highest per capita attendance in Europe) gets only one. SFA arsing it up as per. Edinburgh/Murrayfield should be on that list before a second Dublin stadium.
  4. Portugal won after extra time so a 90 minute win surely beats that
  5. Depending on where you are in city centre...The Queens Arms on Frederick St/Cambridge Bar on Young St/Ryans Bar/Platform 5/The Guildford Arms on West Register St
  6. Every region/country in the UK outwith London and the South East run a “deficit”. This suggests that the methodology used is bollocks or that Westminster has made a complete and utter arse of UK economy.
  7. The area surrounding Wembley has been developed with new flats, shops and restaurants.
  8. It looks full because everyone is seated together at the front of the court. The empty seats are all up the back and are not viewable on normal tv pictures. Kind of negates the purpose of only 50% capacity.
  9. His game is not where it was but his swearing is still “world class”
  10. Andy has lost the ability to grind out points and wear down his opponent. He is also struggling with his mobility to get out to wide balls especially on his backhand side
  11. Haha and I’ve just washed the windaes....
  12. I hope we dont play for a point. If we want to reach the knockout phase then our probable route is as one of the best 3rd place teams. To do this we will need at least three points. We’ve waited 23 years, lets have a go as it may be 23 years until the next time.
  13. If we take on face value that a border with red tape etc would reduce our exports to England by 15% then the opposite is also true and imports from England would be similarly hit. Given that England exports more to us than vice versa that would leave a big gap in our markets that Scottish companies could fill. You are correct that a cheaper currency would boost our exports, not just to England but worldwide. Its too simplistic to look at currency appreciation as good and currency depreciation as bad
  14. A total fanny who only got in due to tactical voting as SNP biggest party in his seat in regional vote.
