  1. David Watson with another big goal for us. 

    He's played a lot of games (usually 90 mins) and only turned 19 last week. Was sub on Saturday to manage his workload as was starting to look a bit leggy of late but he's gonna have a great career.

    It will be mainly due to results. The toys are coming out of the pram because rangers have overtaken celtic. 

     

    He's been poor any time i've seen him this season. 

    Celtic got bullied second half on saturday, they couldn't handle our press.

    Labour are fucking up a 5 nil half time lead in my opinion. Starmers constant u turns will be their downfall in England. 

    Starmer just flip flops between policy, just goes with what he thinks the public wants to hear. I know most in politics do to a certain extent but he's one of the worst "leaders" i've ever seen.

    Scotlad there is hypocrisy absolutely everywhere regarding  people holidaying in places with poor human rights . From football players to musicians, people way more revered than Humza Yousaf.
     Yes of course it would be better if he holidayed in a nice  European country that ticked the box of every politically correct voter but he didn’t.
    It’s hardly a reason to join in with the GB news team , the most hypocritical thing about the whole saga is the type of folk complaining  are generally the biggest bigots and racists out there. 
    Humza is on borrowed time, not because he holidayed in Qatar or because of his own  shortcomings , but because he has inherited a shit show left for him and in no small way amplified by the media that are spinning this nonsense.  There really is no need to stick the knife in further.
    As others have said, he can do no right. It comes as no real surprise that , after googling his name, the only positive news stories about him come from outside the UK media.  In a way that kinda makes me think he is somehow doing something right..

    You are one of the best and balanced posters on here , we probably just need to agree to disagree on this one 👍

    Most folk on here will have holidayed in Spain more than anywhere else. Probably the most openly racist country in continental Europe.

    And he still has a higher win percentage than Steve Clarke.

    Apples and oranges. 

    Clarke has managed more than double the amount of games that McLeish had. Clarke has also managed us in play offs and at a major tournament and played likes of England, France etc in friendlies.

    The away fans are always in the corner of the west stand. Surely?

    Block G is the East Stand though.

    Probably putting them in the East end of the stadium as a wind up.

    Hopefully everyone turns up otherwise the Fin’s will buy up all the home end tickets , Iv started shiting myself about it already 

    haha, it's amazing how scared folk are about away fans in the home end but think nothing of going in the home ends abroad en masse!

    It would be really good if it was, but I can't see it. If the loyalty point counts towards the round of 16 game, then they might sell a few more tickets, I suppose?

     

    As i've said before, anyone who is in the SSC and wants a last 16 ticket will get one. 

    37,500 in it. Lots of them won't be going to Germany (kids/folk that can't afford it/elderly etc) and out those who do go, i'd be surprised if 6,000+ can afford to/can get time off work/family commitments allow them to add on an extra week/another weekend trip at the drop of a hat.

    Based on these prices it’s a fair price!!

    IMG_7686.png

    Correct - i pay £25-33 every second week for away games watching Killie. 

    Paying £30 to see Scotland is hardly sky high. 

    You'd be guts of £15 these days to go to the cinema before you've even bought any food or drink.

    I think the stadium will be nearly full for the three Nations League games. Can't see the friendlies being that popular though.

    Game a week before we go to Germany? It;ll be a sell out.

    Ah OK, I didn't go to the Wembley game. I picked the two games that we lost. 🤣 I'm fairly sure there was nothing on sale at Hampden at all. All kiosks closed. I took my own grub as we were told to be in an hour before kickoff. 

    Blame the backwards Scottish Government for that.

    Ireland had about 30,000 inside the stadium for one of their games a few years back. I think that was in Poland? It was reckoned that there were about 100,000 of them in France for euro 2016. Although they may have borrowed the Celtic Seville calculator, right enough.

    Group stages aye, i'm talking knock out games.

    You think so?

    You see, I'm the opposite. I think that if we were to get through (I don't think will get through anyway, by the way) then I think we could sell 20,000 no bother. 

     

    Can only sell to SSC members though, no chance 20,000 SSC members would be going back over to Germany (or extending their stays) having been there 2 weeks already. 

    There would 20,000 Scotland fans over i'd guess at a push. 

    Every man and their dug are going for over for the group stages, i reckon Cologne will see 100,000 Scotland fans in and around the city. Seems to be the big one.

    I don't know why you continue this game of lying that you would ever vote SNP. Not one person believes you.

    Saw him in the flesh in the early part of the season and he didn't look overweight at all. He's admitted to being overweight in the past. Like I said, could have just been the strip or camera.

    I watched the highlghts at lunch, i think he just looks that way but not convinced he's carrying weight.

    I'd be surprised if it even exists at all (defo won't in it's current format) by time i hit state pension age. Born in 1984. I'd rather opt out it and put the pensions contributions in my NI into my private pension. Will never happen as they rely on folk never reaching state pension age having paid into it for 40 odd years. 

    Fuck being in manual labour intensive jobs at 70.
