Do you look forward to spending your Saturdays feeling thoroughly fed up? Would you like to see people's eyes glaze over when you tell them which Scottish team you support? Is it your hope that one day, before too long, you'll ask yourself why you ever decided to follow Scottish football? If you answered 'yes' to any of those questions, my I suggest my team, Falkirk? haha 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially for Trump the c**t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was referring to the fact that the team is actually located in a city called Independence, Missouri. But you are accurate in that Trump referred to them as being located in Kansas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump famously congratulated the great state of Kansas after the Chiefs superbowl win. Although, to be fair, that's far from the only thing which defines him as a c**t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should really be called the New Jersey Jets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Physically and logistically etc it's its own thing but culturally it's very much an extension of the Glasgow bubble . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Jets and Giants are a lot closer than that to New York. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that's the Lanarkshire Derby (the first syllable of derby is pronounced to rhyme with "car", by the way). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paranoid android Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 14 hours ago, AmericanFan said: American here looking for an SPFL team to follow for the upcoming season. I've eliminated Celtic and Rangers because that would be too easy (and would be like someone outside of the states choosing the Yankees or Red Sox in American baseball), but want a team that has a chance to finish in the top 4 and possibly play in the Europa League. So far looking at Aberdeen, Hibernian and Motherwell. Any thoughts or want to pitch me on your squad? The person who runs the Twitter account was very helpful, so now I'm coming to the board for thoughts as well. Cheers. P.S. I enjoyed my trip to Scotland a few summers ago. Listen, man - dinnae let the bright lights of the spfl distract you from the many delights of Scotland's wee teams. My own club has much to offer in terms of back-to-front long-ball soccer with nary the need for a decent net-tender. We also have many fine pies, and, if it's nefarious litigious actions that you're into...we'll we've got those too. Absolutely no pressure, but if I haven't heard anything from you by this time next year...well, that's still ok. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illgresi Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Fucking Chief b*****ds. We'll do you this year (49ers ftw). Also...you already support a team that plays in red..there's only one team for you. You are now a Brechin City fan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
