microdave Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 probably, just because he wrote it doesn't mean he needs to be sent in every home game to sing it.When was the last time he was at Hampden to sing it? About ten years ago probably. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just me 2 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 One player was "Knock Out" with occasional "World Cup Knock Out" (usually when someone suggested it, they'd immediately shout "I'll go Brazil" as if claiming them meant you would be a better player). Two player games were called "Pairs" with a very rare call of "World Cup Pairs" for that extra something special. When it wasn't competitive we'd play "Passing and Shooting" ("Headers and Volleys only inside the box") or "Sixes and Sixes" (goals scored count for rhe attacking team, shots wide or over count to the keeper) although only a few miles down the road it was called "Seven and By" as it was played to seven rather than six. What's quite interesting is that different groups of people all over the country had basically the same game with lots of similar sounding names despite not being in contact with anyone else. Cuppa pairs and headers a volleys for a kick about hete 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missus has been on the phone for the last 25 minutes and all I have heard is "mmm hmm", "yes" and "is that right?" The f**k is wrong with some people? How can you not know you are talking too much? Tomorrow will be interesting. Should have told the client to open all her windows and turn the heating up to full and then put the phone down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shotgun Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I probably hit 'refresh' on the BBC's Scottish League One scores page a dozen times wondering why they weren't updating the games before realising it's an International weekend and those are next week's fixtures they're displaying. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic Joe Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I can beat that. Headed off to the Lochee United v BSC Glasgow Scottish Cup game via Ladbrokes. Gave up putting a line on as the stupid English based bookies had Lochee away to Dundee Violet in the league. Arrived at Thomson Park to find the gates locked.

Gaz FFC Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 10 years ago I went to every Scotland home game and made plans to watch every away game. By 2014 I was down to watching most games on the TV. In 2019 I've watched the home game v Cyprus (I had a bet on it), missed every other game but the crowning glory is I forgot we were even playing Russia on Thursday. Bravo to the SFA for making me give not 1 f**k in such a short period of time. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee Viole(n)t's ground isn't that far away from Thomson Park: just the other side of the giant Cox ('s stack-cue Kenneth).

Nutz_the_Squirrel Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Undoubtedly mentioned 100 times before but.... when your plane has landed and the seatbelt signs go off, WHYTHEHELL does half the plane get out their seat? What are they so desperate to do? Oh great, now I can queue while the stairs come. Brill, now I can grab my bag from the overhead storage, hit people on the head, and queue to get off- can’t wait to be first in line for the baggage reclaim which will take a further 15 minutes to start. Sit doon ya dicks. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EH75 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 As bad as that are the picks that start queuing at the gate for boarding about 3 hours before the flight is due to take off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
