Watching club football is just must more a part of my life. I do it 40 odd weeks of the year, every year. Nowhere near 40 games a year at the moment, but I’d fall into that category too. Club football is your bread and butter. Having said that if I’d to miss a Motherwell to get to a Scotland game as a one off, I’d probably pick the Scotland game, but if I’d to chuck one altogether probably international football. Its a bit like asking which of my kids I prefer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksburnDandy Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I'd place my country above Aberdeen but previously when I was younger it was the other way around. Aberdeen is the bread and butter but I find the league too repetitive due to the 3-4 games a season stuff. I also find the club game frustrating due to the increasing difference between the wealthy clubs and the rest of us, that's worldwide and not just here. Internationals are a refreshing break from the club scene, often a chance to watch players I don't get to see often or in the case of more obscure opponents, ever. I would give anything to represent Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auchinyell Sox Change Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Cyclic i would say even from a convenience/logistics point of view ; ie when new family on scene , found it harder to justify taking off every saturday compared to the odd weekend at hampden of course having steve paterson as a manager made the choice easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potted Heid Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Country. Someone made a crude analysis of British people which seperated them in to two camps - the ‘somewheres’ and the ‘anywheres’, which broadly corresponded with how people voted in the EU Referrendum. They said that people who could only live ‘somewhere’ vastly outnumber those who could live ‘anywhere’. There is going to be many different factors, however parochialism will trump most motivators when it comes to deciding which team takes precedence. For me its country every time.

Texas Pete Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 For me, it’s country. I still go to club games when I can but I never miss a Scotland game. Sadly, for most players it’s club over country. You can’t blame them I suppose but if I was a player, pulling on the dark blue jersey would be the pinnacle.

I gave up my season ticket when I moved to the US and didn’t bother getting a new one when I came home. Still go to games but I would choose Hampden over Ibrox. Not that Scotland and Rangers ever play at the sane time so I guess I’ll never have to make that decision for real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
