I’d expect both of those are higher amongst old firm fans too. I have extremely accurate BMI figures, which don’t take into account muscle mass when compared to fat, however luckily the vast majority of old firm fans only possess fat due to the low quality diet they consume, which can be proven by the amount of chip shop wrappers and munchie boxes they have scattered around their living room. Not surprisingly unemployment figures are well above average for old firm fans. After having a quick look over the spreadsheet my program has produced, it shows unemployment levels at 50.4%, and the number of them claiming benefits of any kind stands at 32.6%. One of my friends who has done well in her career, and is a St Mirren fan, is high up in the HBOS group of banks, and she says the call centres are fed up telling Rangers and Celtic fans that they need to pay their direct debits with actual money. They are at their wits end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz5 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Only saw the second half of this yesterday, just caught the first half on Sportscene.Did St Mirren pick a goalkeeper off the street first half or something? Any one of us would have kept 3 of the 4 out. [emoji1787] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sort of people who’s happiness depends on the success of their team, who try and lord it over diddy team fans when they win even though they have less than 3 figures in their bank account and go on holiday to places like Craig Tara caravan park. It’s been statistically proven that a higher percentage of diddy team fans hold positions in middle to upper management, and have savings and investments averaging low to mid 5 figures, as well as a very healthy company pension which will compound with time. If Celtic fans are happy to trade that life in order to watch their team beat Dundee and St Mirren 6-0 they are welcome to it, although the vast majority have no choice due to their lack of formal qualifications, and unfortunately a background of genuine poverty. Facebook is a very good tool to use in order to see where Celtic and Rangers fans that you used to go to school with have got to in their lives. I studied data analytics at Uni and over the space of a couple of days I collated heaps of info into a pretty basic program that was able to measure strength of old firm fan against lack of wealth, and the results did not surprise me. Going off my findings we can see that old firm fans are 62% more likely to have had a child before the age of 22, a massive drain on an already precarious financial situation. A worrying trend that my team found was that old firm fans are actually 87% (EIGHTY SEVEN PERCENT) more likely to spend their disposable income in their chosen clubs shop, rather than doing something sensible with it like investing it in a tracker fund, or buying food for their new born baby. If anyone wants a pdf. of the results I’m happy to email them over. Just goes to prove. Money (and a healthy company pension) can't buy class. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the first time a Rangers-minded keeper has let in 5+ goals for us against Celtic, of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just here for the football but this is a corker,fiat currency has no value you don't even see most of our hard earned,the fact direct debits are set up to guarantee the banks are relative is a scam,after the masses bailed them out why should any person trust them again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think they'd be better looking at Alnwick's banking account for any unusual large deposits. It's very alarming that (apparently, I'm sceptical) one of the better goalkeepers in the league to chuck in 6 (yes, six) in one game. Even Jack Hamilton didn't have the audacity to attempt that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more alarming than you thinking a bung would go straight into the bank account of the person in question in this day and age. It will have gone through Willie Collum's bank account. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, if we'd mustered just a few more shots on target in that game at your place when you went down, then he might have managed. Cody Cooke in the record books for the softest hattrick ever recorded. 28 minutes ago, wastecoatwilly said: St Mirren were not allowed to breath when they had the ball,a foul for every minute says more about Collum than the way the game was played. Yeah, I'm not being critical of your (Celtic's) approach - the best teams always have that side to them (harrying, disruptive, lots of niggly 'under the radar' fouls.) And while we're all here saying it didn't affect the result, it can't be easy as the away side seeing Collum pat your player on the back after the most stick-on yellow card challenge you'll ever see, and then see a further 17 fouls go without caution. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not often you can ping passes to the opposition keeper from 30 yards and he runs out the way of them. Sum boi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
