kennie makevin Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Those of us too young, too old, too skint, too hen pecked, too lethargic to sign up for German manoeuvres but whose passion and excitement for Scotland is as great as anyone wandering around Munich in a cheap kilt, how do you plan to get from the fridge to the sofa ? From the bus stop to the pub ? Whether you're a Cpl Jones or Pte Frazer, a Mainwaring or a Pike or even a good old Godfrey, this Euros is just as exciting for Scotland's Home Guard.. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Thought of getting a mini fridge for the living room, although ive now trained the bairn to fetch cans and crisps. Toilet situation is trickier. Might have to be a pale in the corner of the living room. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itzdrk Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 I'll be checking into my bar and only my bar. Probably need to refil the tonic rack first though. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shizzlemanizzle Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 I’d planned a gazebo and telly set up in the garden but because June is being such a w**k I’ve ditched that plan. Re beers, I have runners aged 8, 11 and 14. Re the toilet….. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tena-Active-Pants-Plus-Large/dp/B07B3VYCNB/ref=asc_df_B07B3VYCNB/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309924639348&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=18075153170637541716&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9046949&hvtargid=pla-586934383819&psc=1&mcid=bf12b01f0f453506a5f44918d9018b98 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyline Drifter Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Well heading to Stuttgart next weekend but a 'Home Guardsman' for the first two. Decisions still to be made about how I'm going to watch them. Tomorrow night depends to an extent on my boy. He's not sure if he's going to watch it with his mates or with me. If he wants to watch with me we'll watch it at home. If he's not coming I'll probably go to the pub. I don't generally like watching football I actually care about in the pub as you never see it as well but I've got a chance to watch it on a big screen with a decent atmosphere on a Friday night so will probably go. Swiss game will depend on work commitments. I'll not even be back in Dumfries till about 6pm and am likely to have at least an hour's work to deal with. I may end up watching the first half in the office, though I'll try to avoid that if I can as it's via the internet and will have a few seconds time delay. Long enough for phones to start buzzing etc if anything actually does happen. I'll probably not go to the pub for it even if I've time. Home in front of the big telly there if I can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groundhopping Adventures Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Shocking the Pie and Bovril's Gifs don't include "we're doomed". Not going due to the Austistic dislike of big crowds and drink. Hence why I spend my time with Kirkcaldy & Dysart and Camelon Juniors (wee teams found etc). Also a tight arse tbf. I like watching Scotland games on the tele anyway. Bit of a faff getting away from Hampden so fell out the habit* Will be raiding the superb Morrisons Deli counter before Friday night Spoiler *I am absolutely still seething and on the verge of tears that I won't be there etc but hey ho. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Diamond For Me Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 I don't have a telly and don't like pubs, so I usually listen to our games on the radio. Tomorrow I'll be going to my brother's place to watch it, though. I'll bring the pies. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haud on, is this allowed? Your either homeguard or on manoeuvre's surely. Fine you can stay till next week but then it’s gtf. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Watching tomorrow's game at the East End Park fanzone, which is now sold out. Will be interesting to see how it goes. Will be in Germany next week for the Switzerland game (no tickets sadly, so most likely a fan park). Will be home for the Hungary game. Considering the Riverside Fan Park in Dundee but they're refusing to release drinks prices, even though the first one is tomorrow, which makes me think said prices will be ludicrous. Will see what folk are saying about it after tomorrow. Otherwise I suppose I'll try a pub for it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you don’t get back in for the Hungary game. You only get into the homeguard once.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiviLion Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Pub straight after work tomorrow for the opener is the easy one. I'll be driving down south on Wednesday and have given the missus a very good reason why we need to leave early - I'll be grumpy if I miss the game. Worst case I'll sit and watch it on the laptop/TV in the hotel room but most likely wander round to one of the nearby pubs to catch it. Similarly the drive back up is on the Sunday so again I'll be making sure we're back early enough for me to sit my arse on the couch in time for kick off. Rest of our route to the final I'll probably watch in the pub. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
