Not exactly within the 1st 25 years of the current century.
I was answering and correcting the previous post I quoted that stated,
The odd Olympic games was not the closest Scotland has come to hosting an International football tournament.
That my only point.

It was a total waste of money to my mind but I got to go to the Olympics (and saw Neymar score a goal for Brazil...)
Way aye man
Hampden - the closest Scotland has got so far to hosting an International football tournament.
And.. err.. this
In 1989 Scotland hosted the U16 World Cup, and made it all the way to the final where they lost to Saudi Arabia at a sold out Hampden.
The only ones in the crowd, which included me, that believed the ages on the passports of the Saudi time were the FIFA reps with brown envelopes in their pockets,
Would say that more of hosting a tournament as all games were played in Scotland to amazing crowds.
1989 FIFA U-16 World Championship - Wikipedia
Few well known names were i the team in the final lost on penalties,

I watched a documentary about Joyce Vincent a while back.
She was the woman who went undiscovered for more than 2 years. She was wrapping Xmas presents when she died. But nobody noticed for more than 2 years until the housing association investigated unpaid rent.
I live on my jack, but I'm employed. If I keeled over I like to think that my employers would check on me.
She obviously had friends/family if she was wrapping presents.
So only people who knew her were cursing her as she never sent cards or presents any more, and no-one visited.
I give you modern society.

The army is the biggest fucking money pit in the country and these c***s want to give them more money all while they tell everyone the country is broke. Stupid fucking country.
The Ajax project, another Army black hole of £5.5B was supposed to be ready 2017, won't be ready till 2028/29 at earliest,
A troubled £5.5bn programme that is already six years late in building the British army’s new Ajax fighting vehicle will not be delivered until the end of the decade.
Labour accused the government of failing British taxpayers and troops after the Ministry of Defence confirmed that payments towards vehicles would resume after ministers concluded the programme was “turning a corner”.
Originally intended to enter service in 2017, the programme has been repeatedly delayed, with problems including noise and vibration issues that have injured soldiers testing the vehicles.
After halting payments to General Dynamics Land Systems UK (GDLS-UK) more than two years ago, the MoD said on Monday it would hand over £480m this month to the arms company. It said full operating capability was expected between October 2028 and September 2029, when the army has trained and converted forces to the vehicle.
Always money for the army.

No chance of that. How many away strips have the rangers had that have orange in it. If you put 'Rangers' and 'orange' together what is the first image that comes to mind?
And for any the rangers fan reading please don't tell us it's because you once had a Dutch manager and a few Dutch players

I've always advocated that they need to celebrate the nationality of all their players. Moore & Vidmar the Australians would be a start, now I believe the sporting colours of Australia is Yellow/Gold and Green. Cannot wait to see a Them shirt in those colours.

Tory MP Mark Menzies suspended over alleged misuse of campaign funds - BBC News
Putting aside the Brazilian rent boy from a decade ago (to continue the Yes Minister vibe would have been a 'shady lady from Argentina').
Dealing with the fact the Tory Party have known about this 'bad people' incident since January, and his local party paying to clean up his mess, as he couldn't afford to pay the £5K himself, rising to £6.5K by the time it was paid in the morning by him tapping up up some tory pensioners in the middle of the night.
By this BBC article he has had £14K out of them over the last 4 years for 'medical expenses'.
Must have some very expensive habits or hobbies that he cannot afford on an MPs salary.

Also when using a mobile phone you actually just need to touch it with your finger or thumb as opposed to an actual click.
if it makes a click noise, you have the settings wrong, probably that annoying git on the train that every touch of their phone sounds a click as they feverously type crap messages to their crap friends.
Annoying in or out of work.
