Mr Bairn Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I’M NOT INTERESTED IN FOOTBALL Yes: 38%No: 50%Don’t know: 12% Some confirmation there for our long-held feeling that anyone who doesn’t like football is essentially a bit suspect. Stay classy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confidemus Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'm not sure what your point is here.... I'm sure the Yes voters on here will be delighted to know they are lockstep in agreement with the Rangers fanbase. Ah, there you are. How are you getting on with providing proof that we'd be fawning over George Galloway if he supported independence? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double Jack D Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Proof of the "Team: St Mirren" trope for all to see! http://wingsoverscotland.com/an-opportunist-strike/ It takes a bit of stick for it's unapologetic support of a Yes vote but I think that it's a cracking website that is a decent source of facts. It also is quite clear about it's sources and general solid-ness of it's data. An interesting read. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La_Leyenda Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Most people I've heard talking about it are going to vote No tbh. Some say so, most say "hmm I dunno, I like think it sounds nice but I read *shite in the Scotsman* so now I'm really undecided you know??!" and are pretty obviously not undecided. From friends I have spoken to about it, I have 20 yes, 9 no, and 6 undecided. However, I was in Nairn over the weekend for a wedding and I think I only found one yes. Most did say they were being open minded, but are likely to vote no. Annoyingly, it's always "I'm not convinced". When you ask if they have been paying attention to any of the debates, it's a firm no. They see the odd headline now and again and that's good enough for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todders Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 RANGERS Yes: 45% No: 41% Don’t know: 14% That'll upset some of the NCC. I suspect very few Yes voters will be upset by that (if any). Why would we be? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah maybe it's an Edinburgh thing but what I've heard has been almost all in support of No and mostly exactly as you describe. The c***s I ken that have even the slightest interested in politics (a tiny proportion) are Yes to a man. I canny even be arsed explaining my thoughts to the majority because it would involve explaining devolution and everything. The only discussions I've had, has been when some ramjet makes a point so wildly innacurate that they accidentally troll me into a discussion 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sevconians are a massive threat to a Yes vote so why would that result upset us? I'm raging with the Aberdeen results! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorgieRoad Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Going by the ever reliable 'facebook vote'; 24 of my friends like the 'Better Together' page. 15 of my friends like the 'Yes Scotland' page. Not surprising that most of my friends from home will be voting no considering it was a reasonably conservative/Lib Dem area, and most of the people voting yes are the left of center types or football supporters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 On Facebook, 20 of my friends like Yes Scotland. 16 like Better Together. Overall the likes are around 158,000 for Yes and around 127,000 for BT. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invergowrie arab Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I have now uncovered one or two nos in my circle of friends and family now but it is still standing at around 30 odd for yes and 2 or 3 for no. It's the hope that kills you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bairn Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 My facebook poll is 52-31 in favour of better together. However it should be noted that the vast majority of my friends are young first time voters who aren't exactly renowned as a yes heartland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strichener Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Calling all no voters buffoons is political suicide. Only he wasn't calling all no voters buffoons, just you and possibly your circle of friends as well. ETA: Just as well you are studying maths and not English as comprehension would be your downfall.
