  1. Maybe Rangers should employ a band & give them a specific song sheet & hand this out to fans & get everyone on the same page. Some will argue that this may ruin the atmosphere as some songs are spontaneous, I'd say thats a fair point. Surely 50,000 fans singing the same song & the same lyrics at the same time would be electric?
  2. I usually want all Scottish teams to do well, but I was hoping they got pumped tonight. I took some tramadol & fell asleep woke up & saw they were losing 4-0 and was lovin' it. Then I remembered it wasn't televised, dunno if it was the tramadol or I was still dreaming.. but I was watchin the Shamrock Rovers v Tottenham game. I was gutted.
  3. I miss the thanks button, but at the same time I don't think it covers it when I agree with a post. I thank people for posting stuff that I completely disagree with just purely for their opinion (& not sarcasm) & then I post a message as to why I disagree. With the Agree button I can click agree & then not have to post the same thing again which ends in clogging up the thread. I think the issue with the old buttons was the wording, Groans just didn't fit, imho.
  4. I wondered how long it would take for MON raiding Scotland stories to start. Why would he need to? Sunderland seem to have massive transfer kitties.
  5. I think when he said, He actually meant to say,
  6. I'm 24, the move your talking about we would shout 'touch' before the first person would pass the ball. Everyone is different though.
  7. I used to frequent the KRSC alot, especially before my auld Grampa moved away, he was constantly in there. Since I moved to the southside I havent been in alot apart from to play pool with my Kirky mates or to attend my engagement party. Shame though, it is by far my favourite pub. If I could drive I would definitely be there more, but the 88 is an absolutely shit bus.
  8. When I played football the 'one, two' referred to the pass, the touches in between didn't need counted (this confused some people). As long as the first person starts running as soon as the ball leaves his foot it's upto the second person to decide how quickly the 'two' comes back. Of course this is no definitive answer, just how I played
  9. Unfortunately for me I'm working the 28th or I would join you. It was a tough choice between working the 28th or working both the 26th and the 31st.
  10. I prefer Whitty at RM, so I think Ally should test McMillan at RB with Whitty at RM.
  11. I've seen alot of bus drivers on mobile phones lately. The police are always more vigilant about traffic offences at this time of the year.
  12. The return pass is the 'two'.
  13. Shame you didn't get on mate because I think that is probably the best neutral perspective I've read yet.
  14. That is where I used to drink and was a member for 5 years until I moved to the southside. My girlfriend at the time was catholic & a Celtic fan & never received any sectarian abuse. 1 time Innes asked her to leave because she wore her Celtic shirt into the pub, but the older guys told him to let her be, although she did change as it was a dare by a punter. The KRSC is mostly frequented by older gentlemen (including a hibs fan who constantly beat me at pool the chunt) but on matchdays it tends to be the younger fans that get roudy or offensive (generally people from my year at school). I would also say though that 1 barmaid who has worked there for as long as I can remember is herself a Catholic, I know this as she thought my ex-girlfriend was taking some abuse one day and stepped in. Its only really FTP that gets shouted in there. Actually a really great pub & excellent venue to host a party. I would recommend it to anyone.
  15. Thanks for the in-depth reply Calscot.
  16. Aye, perhaps the word I was looking for was venue?
  17. From what I heard during the debate it covers any area inside/around a Stadium on matchday, it covers fans travelling to/from the game on matchday and it also covers pubs showing live matches.
  18. Same to you and your family
  19. Offensive Behaviour Bill?
  20. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1571287/God-Save-the-Queen-lyrics.html See verse 6. I also thought the verse had been banished.
  21. This weekend should be fun.
  22. As easy as that. No more Ibrox for me tbh. I'm not putting myself in the position where I can be arrested for nothing.
  23. Well that's my point, not only that but it's actually singing about historical fact, not a threat. Firstly, it wouldn't offend me either. Secondly, it is a line to God Save The Queen, as I'm sure you know. But the thing I'm wondering is, if you don't sing the line does it make the song ok? In which case if we sang the billy boys without the 'up to our knees' line would that make it ok? Personally I don't think that would be OK as there would always be someone tempted to sing the line anyway. In which case would GSTQ be classed as offensive for containing a line, whether it is sung or not?
