  2. And then reneging - he clearly forgot nearly getting lynched by anti home rulers in Belfast pre ww1
  3. Aye Curb is genius in parts watched we need to talk about Cosby - 4 parter on the iPlayer - very good
  4. Aye he must of missed the supreme court ruling last week re NI protocol
  5. Caught a bit of it - Jesus wept wasnt impressed by hislop either - fine fighting the establishment as long as it a Uk establishment
  6. I daresay the free nationwide publicity he got for his money it was extremely good business as he couldnt lose Unlike his team 😀
  7. We asked about half a dozen scots fans who were walking close by and they all said 'not from around here' TBH i am too old for clubs and was happy for a single nightcap on the hotel , like I said had a decent time much better than last time but probably much like yourself you would prefer not to revisit Dublin and Glasgow twice in 7 years is enough
  8. Aye after the game - we were standing at the door , not a bad spot (it seemed the only spot) but i fukin hate plastic glasses 😀 think the edinburgh lads were getting a taxi home
  9. aye but i only came across it near the start of the last series on sunday night
  10. you have assholes in your support so do we its not exactly man bites dog as long as its keep in check Better all round experience than the last time despite the same result was the general consensus Fuk all around Hampden , ended up having a few pints in the Penny Farthing with couple of hibs fans and a hearts fan from edinburgh that seemed to be the only pub in 100 miles You do like your queues buses outside hampden , buses outside station , taxis outside station and a serious queue to the Cathouse nigthtclub Pubs were closed at 12 so had a nightcap in hotel Twice in glasgow in 7 years in plenty
  11. It is repeated on Talking Pictures again tonight at 11 only up to Series 1 episode 3
  12. They better not shift the Scotland Ireland game - I have already lost 2 flights with the shift Fri to sat
  13. I doubt there will be any issues with tickets - while krakow is a lot handier than Łódź our game was in no way a sell out
  14. We were in the LKS STADIUM it was pretty new though not a lot out there
  15. Łódź stadium ( the new one ) is fine - tram from city centre about 10 mins Łódź the town - 2-3 days max as not really a lot there bar the main strip an£ the manufacturer centre
  16. If the British had moved against the unionists they wouldn’t have lasted 3 days and the country woukd of been united if the British had withdrawn support for the unionists they wouldn’t have lasted 3 weeks and the country woukd have been united If Britain had let Ireland go the empire was doomed never mind the strategic reasons for occupying it - it staggered on for another 30 years before dissolving again your proposal for repartition smacks of unionism along with a super majority which in reality is a veto
  17. the treaty had very little to do with partition , partition was already a done deal because the UK government caved in to threats from a minority and parts of the conservative party actively supported treason ( to their eternal shame ) the treaty was a republic against essential home rule with oath of allegience and the stepping stone to a republic - the UK was never going to allow a republic Collins seen that (it was well telegraphed) and he cut the best deal he could against the threat of a 'terrible and immediate war ' - it was still the right decision the presence of the a pro british unionist grouping in 6 of 9 counties of ulster is a red herring and your suggestion of a partition of Scotland given the history of partition of ireland /India frankly is baffling when you look around and see the likes of John Taylor ( at the last referendum) is also supporting this as well as suggesting people in NI should be able to vote you might want to think - am i in the right group ?
  18. Absolute guff neatly rubbished in the next post the only thing that united the pro and treaty forces was how to deal with the north the split was on the treaty and damn all to do with partition which both sides assumed was temporary
  19. Been watching the last series of Secret Army on Talking Pictures - enjoying it
  20. Unionists - 40 year old virgins still living at home with their parent telling single people who have their own place that they ( the virgin) have it better
  21. you dont need any covid documentation and masks have been done away with in the last week or so on planes just pick upload later though i think you have to 'read' terms and conditions and covid regs
  22. Paris police 1900 on iPlayer - never heard about but excellent 6 episodes in Interesting opening scene and apparently true of the French president - there are worse ways to die
