What's the most "Tin Pot" thing you've seen in the SPFL


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Not something I've seen in the SPFL but, what I hear from some when talking about teams.

Plastic whistle, Septic, Scumdee, *St.Mirren etc

Unless you are still at primary school then carry on, the rest, it wasn't funny the first time around and doesn't get any funnier 

Cue the boos! 

*for some reason, not letting me edit this to st. Mi dden

Plastic Whistle is an old one- first mentioned as a moniker for the Maryhill Magyars in Meadowbank fanzine AWOL so that's about the late 1980s.

You probably wouldn't have enjoyed the 90s East Stirling fanzine "Who Is Dougie Henry?" very much! Which had amusing in a cringey sort of way nicknames for all the Shire's bottom-feeding rivals. Albania Rovers being my favourite.

You can't rename Saint Mirren after a dump - or after another word beginning with m which refers to female genitals - because the site is owned by a Saint Mirren fan who has a similar perspective.

Not the SPFL, but, for f*ck's sake, Rangers even get "their own end" in women's football as well. 

 

Outrageous.
