I've just realised we're top of the pile at the moment for the third placed teams :)

Terrific news, made even better by the fact that we've already played the current (and possibly final) #1 and #2 at their grounds. I don't think we'll lose at home to Poland, and the Germans aren't as untouchable as expected.

It's all looking very promising :ph34r:

Aye, but we haven't played Gibraltar yet, which goes against us in that table as we don't get any points for it.

On the plus side, if we finished 3rd but not best placed 3rd., there's a decent chance we'd be seeded, seeing as Switzerland and the Netherlands will still very likely finish top 2 in their groups.

I have to admit I forgot all about that.

Needless to say I changed my mind. It seemed unthinkable for me to be saying this right after the referendum, but I care more about the Scotland team now than I did before it. It makes no sense but hey, the heart wants what it wants. When Scotland v Ireland came round I was fully behind Scotland, as I said on here more than once. IIRC these sentiments weren't unique to me, but in the Scotland v Ireland match thread everyone was behind Scotland.

Did you really look through months and months of posts to find that btw? How on earth could that post have meant enough to you that you remembered it months later? :1eye

What a load of pish.

I know what a nationalist is. If you want an example of the "there's no place for nationalism in 2014" piddle spouted by Better Together, getting all jingoistic about our brave boys but not giving a f**k about their own country killing more people than the Nazi's is a good start.

What is it you do then? How do you show respect for the people all over the world who died because of old Blighty?

The old "what a load of pish" line without actually elaborating holds no substance nowadays, just shows you're a bit rattled tbh.

Evidently you do not, unless you're misusing the term on purpose? :unsure2:

Why do you keep assuming you know what people who haven't stated so care about? You absolutley love reverting to this lazy "British national" - ( :lol:) stereotype you clearly have a grievance with.

"Classy letter" - :lol:

You remind me of the type of person who'd have a facebook meltdown about animal rights whilst also advocating genocide on humans that would do such a thing. I think you're just fronting with your morality here, rather insincere.

Basically, aye. The term "nationalist" was misused all the time in the referendum, ie "there's no time for nationalism in 2014, I care about the poor people of Sheffield as much as Glasgow". Although the word nationalist wasn't used here, the same nonsense was spouted here with "he doesn't care about anyone that isn't Irish".

I don't believe people who say they care as much about Britain's millions of victims as their brave boys, whilst still maintaining a strong sense of British patriotism. How could you? Btw my grievance isn't with people having a strong British identity, it's how hypocritical many of them are.

Thanks for the last bit, belter :unsure2: . I'm not fronting with my morality, a better example of that would be the mock outrage of everyone who doesn't wear a poppy.

From the article "Speaking to Ryan Tubridy on RTE's 2FM on Tuesday morning, the FAI chief said that the video had been recorded in a "sly way" but insisted that he did not agree with the song's lyrics."

Of course being sly is much more reprehensible than glorifying murder in song?

So this balloon hasn't been sacked by the FAI?

Sacked?

It's just the craic.

The song does not glorify murder, it's de fookin' brits what do that.

De boyos have decided nothing bad happened.

What is Pokemon Go Friends Limit?

One of the most popular questions being asked by many Pokemon Go trainers is how many Pokemon Go friends can I have? Well when it comes to playing a game like Pokemon Go, it’s always fun to have as many friends as possible. But to keep things more organized in the pokemon go friend qr codes there is a limit of 200 friends that can be added by each Pokemon Go trainer.

I saw this topic had been bumped and thought it was an odd old thread to be back near the top. I was trying to think what possible reason someone could have for bumping it. 

This came in at number 1,067,892 on my list.

 

Edit: also, is anyone reading that username as Poke-mongo or is it just me?
