More importantly Scotland beat Ireland yet again this time in the final match of the T20 World Cup European qualifying tournament both teams are qualified but this is another sign that the balance of power is swinging back in our direction 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moomintroll Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 The ICC need to force Counties to release Associate players for the World Cup, it's not like they give a toss about the CC anyway as the schedule proves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondDan Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) With Black Saturday fast approaching, please see below for the history of the Royal Black Institution. Hope all Sir Knights enjoy their day when it comes. Last Saturday parade details as Royal Black Institution march in six locations - Belfast Live Scottish commemorations took place last weekend. And who better to lead the parade than the fantastic Netherton Road FB, as they prepare to celebrate their 50th anniversary next year. Please see the following link for an insightful article into the practices of the Royal Black. Only for those with an open mind. Rev.

Wee-Bey Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 The Impartial Reporter is such a great name for a paper/website. I'm not bias honest, look it's in the name. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StygianDepths Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 I can't help myself by watching the footage of these things. They're morbidly fascinating. The bellies of many of those drummers and marchers are practically dragging on the pavement. I can sort of get the appeal of the whole pageantry and theatrical element of it but you'd think they'd at least get themselves into a respectable condition for their big moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiamondDan Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Ill informed remarks shall be ignored, gentlemen. Try not to let your football allegiance or Scottish constitutional alignment cloud your judgement on the Loyal Orders. Tolerance is a virtue, after all. As Black Saturday draws closer, it's also worth remembering that the Royal Black has raised literally hundreds of thousands for charity. "Over a 21-year period the institution has gained a distinguished record in charity work, donating a total of £845,000 to various charitable causes." Charity and community outreach are embedded in the very foundations of the organisation itself.

Beckford Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Yeah mate no one dodgy, bigotted or hatefull has ever hid behind the "oh look we do a lot for charity" excuse Hopefully one day we will have a proper grown up country where brain dead morons wont feel the need to play dress up to express their backward beliefs. Scotlands shame that this kind of crap continues. Nothing to do with politics or football alligence, just a national red neck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic Joe Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 I wonder if it's got to the point where we don't give air space to bigoted morons with a thread like this. 99 percent (probably more) in Scotland find these cretins repulsive. Maybe a thread where we can simply celebrate the progression of Scottish cricket might be the way forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
