It's a celebration of being a Private Jock MacGlashan VC of the Royal Highland Cannon Fodder and really doesn't sit well with to many people. It's best done away with altogether, that and the stuff about Mrs Windsor. It's still a very good tune that a half-decent wordsmith could turn into a song about following Scotland through the years, the great players, memorable moments and all that sort of thing. I think I know that one - "I've been away where the Rockies proudly stand, I've crossed the Mississippi and the Rio Grande ....." It's quite an "old school" song. There's a few other teams in Scotland and England that have their own versions of it. A Scotland song might be crafted around it. Aye that's the very one mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But why do people think that we need to come up with a song/chant in my opinion the best songs/chants have been spontaneous and stuck because they were good, yes some are well past their sell-by date but the fact there's been nothing new is almost certainly a reflection on the brain dead Facebook generation who are incapable of independent thought and spend 90% of s game glued to their phones.

iainmac1 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Scots Wae Hae should be an anthem we belt out every game. Was often talked about being a possible official anthem. Easy to learn. Would look great with flags and scarves waving. They should play it at half time as a start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mobile phones have become a real bug bear of mine. Why go to a game to watch it through a wee screen. Euro 2016 was and the English premiership is awful for it. Any penalty and about 50% of the crowd behind the goal are filming it. Same for corners. When they showed the crowd after a goal at the Euros half of the crowd was filming the crowd celebrating. Which meant the half of the crowd was standing filming other people filming and not actually being part of the atmosphere. Phone w@nkers. Ban them.

User posts opinion on something that interests them, other users have nothing to contribute but post telling them their posts aren't welcome. Variety of debate ensures there's something for everyone; instead some would rather make them feel completely unwelcome. How hard is it to bite lip on threads you aren't interested in? Short of banning mobile phones which clearly wont ever happen, I don't see any harm in fans sharing ideas for improving atmosphere. Each to their own.
