  1. Hard to compare a full back like Clarke with an out and out winger like McCann with a central defender like Levein with a hilding midfielder like Lennon ! Levein pre injury was so good that I used to wonder who I would rather have - him or Butcher - bearing in mind Butcher was captain of Englend at the time. Lennon was the best defensive midfielder I can remember seeing play in Scotland - ridiculously underrated even by Celtic fans who got audibly impatient with the pairing of him and Lambert and the lack of drive. Souness was better but not by the stage he was up here. McCann was very good on his day (unplayable in the 4-3 1996 LC final ) but inconsistent and not in the same bracket as Lennon or Levein
  2. What ? You feel like just filling your pants ? Well, each to their own.
  3. Or make it 1893 words as that was the year your team were formed.
  4. Think you are maybe confusing spraying around insults like “state of the minter”, “lay off the smack”, and various amusing GIFs, with having a decent grip of English. Did I mention 5-1 ?
  5. Have to hand it to you Cumdoggy, you are good with GIFs. The English language ? Not so much. Did I mention 5-1 ?
  6. Why are you taunting him with just the half-time score ?
  7. Jim "Just get shot of them all. Would make the country a far more tolerant..." You don't see any contradiction there ? More cohesive, I'll grant you. But you could probably make more impact by getting rid of any kind of separate schooling - private or religious or denominational.
  8. Jimboy Are you maybe making the giant leap from condemning objectionable behaviour at Orange Marches and Ibrox to the conclusion that everything to do with Orangeism is completely unacceptable ? 1. "They celebrate the Boyne " Well, it might not be your cup of tea or mine, but so what ? Plenty of Scots commemorate Bannockburn. Plenty of English/British people commemorate the Battle of Britain. And plenty of Irish people commemorate the 1916 armed uprising. 2. "A songbook littered with ridicule..." I'm only familiar with the few that you hear at football matches. Not sure what others you maybe mean. They celebrate battles, sieges, traditions. - asd o the their flip-side songs at at the other side of Glasgow. Again, not my cup of tea or yours. Inappropriate at a football match, but do I find it completely beyond the pale ? Not really, except for the 3 word add-ons at the end. Plenty of young aethiests behave badly up town centres at weekends. It doesn't make us say that aetheism is unacceptable. fwiw the quote below comes from wiki. Probably, best drop this debate now, seeing as it isn't really football, is it ? An Orangeman should have a sincere love and veneration for his Heavenly Father, a humble and steadfast faith in Jesus Christ, the Saviour of mankind, believing in Him as the only Mediator between God and man. He should cultivate truth and justice, brotherly kindness and charity, devotion and piety, concord and unity, and obedience to the laws; his deportment should be gentle and compassionate, kind and courteous; he should seek the society of the virtuous, and avoid that of the evil; he should honour and diligently study the Holy Scriptures, and make them the rule of his faith and practice; he should love, uphold, and defend the Protestant religion, and sincerely desire and endeavour to propagate its doctrines and precepts; he should strenuously oppose the fatal errors and doctrines of the Church of Rome and other Non-Reformed faiths, and scrupulously avoid countenancing (by his presence or otherwise) any act or ceremony of Roman Catholic or other non-Reformed Worship; he should, by all lawful means, resist the ascendancy, encroachments, and the extension of their power, ever abstaining from all uncharitable words, actions, or sentiments towards all those who do not practice the Reformed and Christian Faith; he should remember to keep holy the Sabbath Day, and attend the public worship of God
  9. They are clearly doing it so that from the main stand it is going to look like Gowser's leaping celebration on 19th May 2012
  10. Yep. I noticed they weren’t bothered at all by it. No siree. Not at all.
  11. That 1893 truth really, really gets to you, Bo. I’ll try not to raise it with you again, because it obliterates your ability to have any kind of reasoned debate.
  12. I’m not anybody else. To quote Shirl - I am what I am, and what I am needs no excuses.... But humour me. Tell me who MJC was/is so that I can look up their posts and decide whether or not to be offended.
