Hampden Diehard Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 On the radio this morning - Clydebank to play their first senior game in 20-odd years tonight. Senior football is the SPFL top four divisions. The rest is non-league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly whatever's been stolen in Switzerland, so lots of Mercedes. Get the odd Bentley or Jaguar around Lazarat. David Beckham's BMW was stolen by an Albanian gang. I read a story about these Albanian car gangs. They would chap a door in southern Germany and tell the owner to leave his car keys out and the door open that night so they could collect them. If not, they steal the car anyway and kill his family. Outstanding business model. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember if it was BBC Scotland or STV, but trained killers my arse. I watched that. To be fair, they had murdered people all over the shop. 11 of them getting dropped in the jungle against what they thought were 80 drug cartel guards; balls of steel to even think about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outstanding business model. A friend in Epsom had a knackered old BMW Series 1 that he was shifting. A couple of Eastern European lads came round to view it. He had put it up for sale at about a grand, they offered him about £300, he declined. Woke up the next morning and it had been nicked. A camera across the road had managed to record it, and it was indeed the same blokes. He went to the police about it, gave them the number but it was a burner phone. They said it would have already been out the country and to claim on insurance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree. Dozy c***s that sit in filter lanes checking their whatsapp messages instead of paying attention for the filter lane coming on need beeped. The fact I need to do this every day to get the traffic moving perhaps skews me view on this though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior football is the SPFL top four divisions. The rest is non-league. Many moons ago my brother was a trialist in a reserve game away to Clydebank. I remember going to Kilbowie (today has been all about reminiscing over stadiums for me). Wooden benches throughout. Dad told me it was the first all-seater stadium in the country. I might be mixing my games up but I think he got injured and carried off during that game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior football is the SPFL top four divisions. The rest is non-league. Craigkillie is right - senior football is the SPFL, LL, HL, EoS, WoS, SoS, Midland League and NCL. Non-league is senior football below the SPFL and the remaining Juniors - the NRSJFA. You could argue that the NRSJFA is senior because it's now in the pyramid but that's debatable. However, Clydebank played games in the West of Scotland Premier League last season before it was abandoned so the radio was wrong anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Car alarms are pointless. If one goes off nearby, is your first instinct:1. "Oh my god someone's cat might be getting pinched, I'd better look out the window as I may have to call the Police"; or2. "f**k off with that thing, I'm watching the fitba. In fact is it mine? I don't even know if my car has an alarm. f**k it, can't be arsed getting up" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The West of Scotland League is senior non-league. If you're a bearded, anorak-wearing, ground-hopping sadact, sure. Any league outside of the SPFL is 'non league', in the same way that any team outside the English 92 are 'non-league'. And in Scotland they're not even playing in a nationwide league. Here is the correct system: Big league (senior) Diddy league (senior) Seaside leagues (x2) (senior) Non-league (everything else; not senior) Edited July 21, 2021 by vikingTON 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people are using their phones so blatantly o while they’re driving that is a far more serious matter. That said they still aren’t 100% paying attention so you going up and blasting the horn at them is going to make them panic and be more likely to crash so it’s not really the safest way of reacting to the situation. There’s also going to be dozens of people within earshot shot who are going o hear the horn and wonder if you are beeping at them which is also annoying as f**k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
