I voted for 'country' despite the tartan buffoons. However, as I have supported Scotland over 6 decades and am an acknowledged P&B fanny, I get a free hit and have no problem in stating that the current coterie of Scotland fans are an utter embarrassment. When you watch/support Scotland then you set aside club affiliation. This was always the way. No longer. The current crop of tartan gonks now react negatively to a player wearing the Scotland jersey just because of his club. We've seen this more than once. I will continue to support Scotland. I will also continue to despise a significant number of Scotland fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawford Bridge Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I don't get how you can care more about a team that plays every few months than one that plays at least once per week. Don't get me wrong, I back Scotland and enjoy it when they do well but international football will always be a side-show to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's utterly weird and the very definition of parochial to care more about partick fucking thistle than your actual country. That's a sign of mental derangement. Clubs are just private businesses rangers got liquidated in 2012 that can't happen to Scotland (unless Ruth Davidson has her way) cause it's a fucking country not a daft wee business.

Ooft. So seething about being found out on the PL thread and now resorting to going into other threads to have digs. And I’m the one who’s apparently trying too hard...

TheScarf Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I chose Scotland winning the WC purely based on the fact that ICT won the SC in the recent past. Ask me in 20 years time when we're in League One and my answer may change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Club. I put much more into supporting my club and feel far more of a connection to them than Scotland. Each to their own though, I don't think anyone who thinks the opposite is a fanny and I would certainly enjoy myself if Scotland ever won the World Cup.

Aberdeen winning the Scottish Cup would be great, but, you know, it's the bloody World Cup. I'm the same. I follow Killie everywhere and do most Scotland games but if Killie were in Europe for example I'd cant he Scotland aways. I've seen Killie win a couple of cups and I probably will again in my lifetime but Scotland winning the World Cup would be unreal. I've probably been to 40 odd Scotland away games since I started going in 2001 to aways and never even been to a major tournament so in this instance I'd go with Country.

As for club affiliation, thank god we've not got selectors anymore picking mediocre Rangers players ahead of Lisbon Lions purely based on their bias. Selective memory you have of your 6 decades watching Scotland. I blame old age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
