There once was a man named Scotticus
The poetry he wrote was Erotticus
He came in third
Flipped the judges the bird
Then went home and moaned about it a bit on GRcade.

Great form, great volume, great nips.
So great!

The history. The East of Glasgow was predominantly an extremely deprived part of the world with a huge Irish immigrant population from the emmigration after all the famines and what not. Celtic were started up by a priest (Brother Walfrid I think) as a community thing. Hence the Catholic/Irish history.

Then you get all the Scottish people thinking they are Irish and singing songs about British troops dieing, warped fans.

So great!

What you get is a strong fanbase in Ireland (shitloads of which go to home games) and people who celebrate their Irish heritage. You say that as if we're all bigots when it's in fact a minority. Shows what you know really.

I for one have no connection with Ireland and so I chose not to partake in Irish flag-waving and whatnot.

Since when did Scotland have a football league?

Since about the time South African fans started blowing shitty horns at matches.

HUMOUR FAIL.

The irony.

Not far off what I would choose, but failure to pick Fletcher (steven) would be unwise.

But what you said doesn't make any sense. Was that meant to be a dig at me? I don't get what you were trying to do with it.
