  1. No - i think that anyone who genuinely doesnt care and thinks that it really doesnt matter should have a look at themselves But again - thats just an opinion
  2. Are you really underestimating the feeling of being picked to play for Scotland in a game against England at Wembley, being in the dressing room and pulling on the dark blue which many Scottish legends have worn before you in the same fixture ? You really think that pulling on a pink jersey gives you that same feeling ? If you dont believe Chris Coleman (look at the Welsh record under him) then what about Bill Shankly who gave the jersey the same esteem ? Just to be clear - there is nothing wrong with the pink away strip. It looks alright and is kind of unique. I just dont think, in this particular fixture, against this particular opposition , with the history involved, we should be in a situation that we cannot wear the traditional Scotland jersey. It's almost heresy - but thats just my opinion
  3. Apologies - it was a generalisation - that i still stand by To equal it up i'll give you spinning my argument to make it sound ludicrous without any retort
  4. Their red top is just as iconic as the white since they won the World Cup in it so yes - not many will mind
  5. Scottish Labour are struggling for votes and want to be seen as the peoples champion again
  6. Really ? You think think running out at Wembley, for an England v Scotland game, in a pink strip, will have the same psychological effect as wearing the blue ? And anyone that says "Who cares" shouldnt really be supporting Scotland IMO Thats part of the whole problem with Scottish Football
  7. It's totally a Rangers/Unionist thing
  8. Remembrance should be a personal thing however it was hijacked by the Tories for political means some years ago Wearing a poppy = Britishness (See events at Ibrox) The earlier in the year you wear your poppy the more British you are England v Scotland at Wembley is a perfect advertisement for that "Britishness" in the current political climate
  9. You are not thinking it through hard enough ...
  10. You really are missing the point The oldest international in World Football - Scotland Blue v England White The last time we didnt wear navy blue was 1909 at Crystal Palace Clearly you are in the nothing is sacred camp ......
  11. There is nothing wrong with the home kit - apart from us not being able to wear it against England ! Thats the issue - and the morons at the SFA that selected it without foreseeing this problem
  12. It must have been in the small print It appears 100 years of tradition and history is meaningless and nothing is sacred I very much doubt the lion on the jerseys will be looking up and roaring at whoever is wearing it At least the chants of "what the fvcking hell is that" for 90 minutes from the English will have a double meaning Personally i think it's just another humiliation from SFA amateurism for selecting a dundee/raith rovers replica in the first place and a big fvck you to the fans - however maybe my 40 years of following the national team is blinding me
  13. Seemingly the hideous white sleeves on the Scotland top clashes
  14. You can thank the SFA & keep giving them your hard earned dosh lads Just when you think they cant make us a bigger laughing stock If this is a joke then i take it back ...however Martin Williams ‏@Martin1Williams #Scotland are to wear their pink kit in their World Cup qualifier against the Auld Enemy... England. Deary me.
  15. indeed Ed Miliband Verified account ‏@Ed_Miliband Govt says Nissan must know its Brexit plan (fine) but Parl't can't know or vote on it due to secrecy. Totally unsustainable position.
  16. There is so much nonsense in that statement that i have to disagree Nigel But yes you are entitled to believe it
  17. Can i just say i abhor Phil Kay and thought he was about as funny as toothache I wasnt one bit surprised when he reinvented himself as Alex Massie
  18. When did the Russians become hostile to the USA ? If Hillary & the Democrats get in will it be WWIII ?
  19. Would you consider France, Germany, Spain, Ireland, Spain, Holland, Belgium et al as Independent countries ? We would be just like them As for the original question - nothing It's only a game and probably a meaningless one at that down the line
  20. Both sides are going so much out their way in trying to discredit their opponent to the extent that they could destroy each other - if they havent already Politicising the FBI is never going to end well http://www.cbsnews.com/news/harry-reid-letter-fbi-james-comey-clinton-emails-trump-russia-ties-hatch-act/?ftag=CNM-00-10aab7i&linkId=30506399
