Glasgow folk saying chavs rather than neds? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure they were using "chavvy" in that sense - I have only ever heard it used almost as a term of endearment toward a mate - think how some English people will say "alright chap, hows it going" or whatever. It was definitely used in parts of Edinburgh that way, although its dropped out of common use. I had never actually heard it as a negative term until my sister moved to England, and they certainly use "chavvy" in the way I might use "schemie" if I was describing the wee radges that set fire to your car in Wester Hailes. 3 points today and it will be bye bye gio 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure you weren't watching Green Street after some all nighter rave? I think anyone in the "Ken Zone" gets labelled a teuchter by some Glaswegians. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valentino Bolognese Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Chav was used in the 90s by folk from the north of England to describe the sorts of characters that the west of Scotland describe as neds. It's never been a Glasgow term as far as I'm aware. Anyway ... I think Saints might well chuck a few curveballs out today in terms of personnel. 5-3-2 probably but there might be a couple rested with an eye on the 2 games next week and/or giving players the opportunity to shine. Makes the Wotherspoon conundrum interesting. He's probably still a wee bit too early for a start but he's running out of world cup games. On balance I think he'll start but that might mean dropping Carey as I can't see Hallberg missing out and McGowan is the only viable holding midfield option. In an ideal world we'd find a way to have Spoony and Carey on the park at the same time but ain't gonna happen. Brown needs to GTF from the LWB slot and it would be good to have an option on the other side, Wright's been poor after a decent enough start although he was better second half against Killie. Expect something like this but could see any of Gallagher, Carey, Phillips, McLennan or even Wee Max appearing and if they don't start that's the subs I expect to see between 65 and 80 minutes. Remi Wright Mitchell Gordon Consi Monty Hallberg McGowan Wotherspoon Clark May CD does have the habit of vomiting up a 5-2-3 on occasion when he thinks we're not quite eyebleeding enough, so he might push spoony / carey further up, dragging the front line back 10 yards and creating yet more crimes against football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 ^^^ That’s the line-up I’d go with also. If Murphy is indeed fit and well, I wouldn’t be averse to seeing him in the XI instead of Clark. Anyway, with the introduction of VAR, I expect this to be the beginning of a fairly routine run of wins against Rangers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelsjfc Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 (edited) Parish. Oh god. Assuming there's no change in change in shape and Brown and Montgomery are WB with McGowan dropping back. Could be a 4-4-2 with Carey and Wotherspoon wide though. Ballsy midfield if it's a three. Edited November 6, 2022 by nelsjfc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valentino Bolognese Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Suppose if Gordon's injured it does mean Carey and Spoony both start. Big job for the CBs today with no cover in front and a bombscare behind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widge Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 We saw last season how it panned out with Parish in goals, so why not just play Sinclair if you’ve recalled him? I know he played yesterday, but he’s actually got game time behind him this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m guessing they don’t want to burn him out and Matthews might be back by Motherwell? I hope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Saints Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 This is dreadful. Rangers with 7 corners and 10 attempts in the first 12 minutes. If this isn’t clear evidence that these players are getting stifled by our negative manager, I don’t know what is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
