Fish Gills Mcginty Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Mark Millar the comic book gadgie. Monty? he's a bit of a dick, but he/his foundation are doing some great charity work so I find it hard to criticize. Billy Connolly? I quite like most of the people mentioned on this thread!

Can't be the only one to notice that Tennant alters his how strong his accent is depending on who's interviewing him. Don't like people who do that. I mind when he quit as Dr Who, the media were predicting that the offers from Hollywood would come flooding in for him. Feck all happened. You'd be amazed how much you do that yourself. Everyone does it subconsciously, Scottish or not. There's a way you temper your language depending on your audience without even realising you're doing it. Cue an outraged 'not me' written in some kind of cod scots dialect from some ersehole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that whole bonnie prince charlie garb. Seriously a real highlander would look at you and assume you were a modern day Scottish lady boy selling your wares. People look at you like you're insane if you mention that clan tartan is a 19th century fabrication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's a an absolute bint though, a bitter one at that. Some of things i've seen her say about other teams (Killie included) on Twitter just makes her look like a paranoid cow.

By "sectarian mud slinging" you mean when she asked McGarry for clarification on her comments about the famine song, or is there something else that I'm unaware of?

phart Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Some folk take the pish with the accent swings though. My uncle whenever he speaks to his brother in law, who is Portuguese, he starts imitating their accent and it's funny as anything, especially with a drink in him.

Was it sectarian/racist/sexist/homophobic, or just something you didn't like because you disagreed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take your word for it. Was it sectarian/racist/sexist/homophobic, or just something you didn't like because you disagreed? She's in the past insinuated that Kilmarnock have some sort of problem with bigotry within their support, akin to that at Rangers. Which of course is complete and utter fabrication on her behalf. Then she was an advocate of boycotting RP based on our former chairman abstaining in the Rangers vote, whilst being all too happy for her clubs fans to hand over £49 a ticket to the same side each time they play each other (a nice we cosey arrangement between the sides). Then there was the repeated claims by her that Celtic singing IRA supporting songs is a celebration of their history (remind you of another team from Glasgow?) She spouts all manner of p1sh, to start list all of them would take up most my morning. She is perfectly suited to the victim mentality. Thankfully, as a catholic living in the West of Scotland i have never experienced the persecution that she seems to encounter on a regular basis.

Which of course is complete and utter fabrication on her behalf. I would disagree with that, although I was called a Fenian bassa and spat at when I sat among Killie fans on the final day of the 2003 season, so there is obviously a small section that are akin to that of Rangers. Then she was an advocate of boycotting RP based on our former chairman abstaining in the Rangers vote, whilst being all too happy for her clubs fans to hand over £49 a ticket to the same side each time they play each other (a nice we cosey arrangement between the sides). That's up to her. If people not going to Rugby park makes you dislike them then you can't have many mates who support Killie. Then there was the repeated claims by her that Celtic singing IRA supporting songs is a celebration of their history (remind you of another team from Glasgow?) They're a celebration of Irish Republican history, which many Celtic fans support/sympathise with. Not sure why you disagree. Or is it the case that you just don't like these songs? That's fair enough but doesn't make what she said any less correct. She spouts all manner of p1sh, to start list all of them would take up most my morning. She is perfectly suited to the victim mentality. Thankfully, as a catholic living in the West of Scotland i have never experienced the persecution that she seems to encounter on a regular basis.
