  1. His dad and grandpa were pretty important too.
  2. Looks like Westdyke had an off day
  3. The full Norstat poll...
  4. Wordle 1,268 4/6
  5. TBF you didn't have to go to school dressed like Gizzard Puke to be a punk fan.
  6. Aiden McGeady picked up a decent Scottish accent during his time at Celtic.
  7. Great shout! Quite a few roads I drive regularly could do with John McAdam too.
  8. 1. Robert Burns - I'd betray my Ayrshire roots if I didn't put him top. 2. Robert the Bruce - A nasty b*****d, but without him there possibly wouldn't be a Scotland. 3. Denis Law - Went golfing rather than watching England win the World Cup, which pushes him to my top sports spot. 4. Andy Murray - Survived one of our worst atrocities as an infant, and carved out a pugilistic career against the grain to become best in the world. Fearless. 5. Jackie Stewart - Not as good a driver as Jim Clark, but gets listed on his commitment to making his sport safer, and also his philanthropy. 6. Andrew Carnegie - The king of philanthropists, his actions put the stupid white men who run America now to shame. 7. Margo MacDonald - Couldn't have an all male list and I greatly admired Margo's spirit and tireless committment to bettering lives, even through her own suffering. Being a sporter of the MacLean tartan has influenced my final three picks... 8. Billy Connolly - Possibly the most successful Scots working class polymath. In his main job he was voted the greatest of all time by his peers. Tickety-boo. 9. Sean Connery - Another who rose from poverty to become a global icon. Spielberg called him the world's most bankable movie star. 10. John Maclean - In retrospect siding with the USSR wasn't a great look, but he stuck up for the wee guy at a time when they were being slaughtered in imperial wars.
  9. Your boy must still be in with a shout?
  10. Wordle 1,267 4/6
  11. Not QT but classic TV all the same...
  12. "Hey Elon, fancy flying to Scatland? We might help Nigey baby get a few list MSPs".
  13. Wordle 1,266 5/6
  14. While I agree with some of the sentiment in your post, almost every Scottish boss I've had has supported Celtic or Rangers, many of them educated to degree level or higher. I guess that comes from working in manufacturing industries in the west of Scotland.
