"the fans were leaving in their droves" 'Cos their chariots were baisés by the French.

Quicker than UK pms.

Gorit! Worrafkn laff. Unfortunately I've got covid and can't be watching it in my local cafe.

I'm totally out of touch with the current machinations. I'd like an independent socialist style Scotland, not one that's a Wee Free Theocracy. Or any other godly kind, for that matter. I joined the SNP as a teenager in the 60s and now realise I'll probably die never seeing independence achieved. Hey ho, poor me, so have a lot of others. f**k the Tories.

I almost said there isn't one single banana in that photo. Then I spotted the curvy, secretive bastids, hanging around in the background in their undemocratic, tyrannical way.

I am prepared to accept that poor weather conditions have affected the supply of fresh vegetables and fruit in Europe, but brexit has put the UK, as a 3rd country, at the end of the supply queue. So it IS because of brexit that there is a shortage. ETA I've just come back to France after a few weeks in Spain. I haven't noticed any empty shelves in either country.

And many of those thought it would get rid of the "Pakis" . (see 'uneducated' , or just plain 'ignorant'). Now the UK has increased immigration levels from Asian countries. Ironic.

Or very competent saboteurs.

I've never been so pleased to be red-dotted.

Boris Johnson?

Religious nutters shouid be kept away from politics, but I don't know how that could be achieved. Ah, wait a minute, I do know. Don't f'k'n vote for them!

Never a pen. Brilliant!

Mon the Jags. Shoot for goal every opportunity, any distance, any angle , any player. Orcs are cuns. t. (Only slightly pished on my holidays in wet, cold Spain. )

Name change to Manchester Rangers.

Last comment from me on the England match. Scotland avoided any bad luck. In some other matches, recently v Wales , we have had unfortunate events that swayed the game. I'm really not trying to be sour grapey, we've suffered some misfortune. Remember the WC exit in 2015? Maybe the fates have toyed with us enough. Or maybe I just remember the bad stuff...

I found a website saying that this was England's main tactic and that Farrel was to blame for concentrating on Russel too much. Interesting for me as I know feck all about rugby tactics. https://www.rugbypass.com/news/going-after-finn-russell-backfired-for-england/?c=1 ETA Soz, Mark Connolly, just read your post.

Big team found...

Darvel was once famous for making carpets and lace curtains. It's now curtains for Dons in the cup after taking a beating from The Vale.

Well, in 66/67, the season Celtic won their one and only European trophy, they were beaten home and away by Dundee Utd. 3-2/2-3. So it could happen. Good luck.

After the world cup, I'm thinking that with VAR stoppages, old-fashioned injury stops and up to TEN subs per game, maybe a football match should be shortened to 80 minutes official time.

Not at all. They just have a huge rate of churn.

So. Who will be Rangers NEXT permanent manager?

A business suit isn't the correct attire for a sportsman on work days. Tracksuits are ok. Gives the impression of being a sportsman. Hmm, maybe that's why the nuhs wear business suits.

It's quite possible that heading the ball will not exist sometime the future but I wouldn't class that as being liberal. More like restrictive. Heading could be made optional... eta the last bit was an attempt at humour.

I don't watch a lot of rugby but they tend not to head the ball much. Where do the concussions happen? Badly judged tackles? Believe it or not , that's a serious question.
