  1. There's a danger of there being an atmosphere at the Emirates.
  2. Not sure if Carroll will be happy with us trying to stop him from playing. Still, England/FA can fuck off.
  3. Why are you embarrassed? It was a massive away support on one of their big trips to England (which they get so worked up about). The Gallowgate that day was probably louder than Ibrox is most weekends. I for one would love the Gallowgate to be all standing, the atmosphere would be phenomenal. Imagine the Sunderland match atmosphere this year had the Gallowgate been all standing!?! Would have been unbelievable. I have always thought that the east stand would be the perfect place for safe standing; it would be a great atmosphere booming out straight onto the pitch and in the faces of the corporates in the Milburn! A good percentage of the Gallowgate were standing Completely agree with the idea of German-like standing areas. One of those things that gets talked about quite regularly but will never happen. Unfortunately the game is still stained thanks to our Liverpudlian friends.
  4. Pedantic post Dave, but why do you spell "crack" "craic" ? Crack has been a Geordie expression for as long as anyone knows and long,long before the Irish hijacked it and it became trendy to spell it "craic". Trendy? I'm pretty sure its spelt craic because that is how you spell crack in Gaeilge Irish stole it from English and changed it to craic. I use craic though because it's ubercool. That's like saying the Germans stole schadenfreude or the French stole renaissance. Not really.

  6. Wonder if the inbreds still want Bruce out...
  7. As one of these utter twats you so eloquently describe I would propose to you that some can't afford to go to all games and therefore choose their games selectively
  8. Jesus wept man, he's absolutely shocking. He has somehow bagged himself a few Premier League goals. He will sharply return to shitness.
  9. And you have the cheek to call someone else's post absurd? Your attempt at emotional blackmail leaves a lot to be desired, for one there were no women in the trenches of WWI, and the world itself was a very different place then than it is today - and WWI was not a fight against fascism, that came latter. The poppy is a symbol of remembrance of those who lost their lives in WWI, the war to end all wars. The fact that it is now being used by certain elements to encompass modern wars such as Iraq/Afghanistan is what is questionable, and that is what the celtic banners are attempting to do - albeit in a rather overly dramatic way. Some people are not happy with the conduct of the British government and the actions of sections of the British army (i'm sure you can find all sorts of evidence etc online as to why), and would rather not see the remembrance of those that died fighting in what they themselves believed to be a just war, tarnished by the actions of a modern occupying force. Of course the emotional hysteria that the government (et al) wishes to whip up in order to get backing from the public appears to be working - if some of the posts on this thread are anything to go by. no it isn't. it is a symbol of rememberence of those who lost their lives and were injured serving this country. just because it started after the first world war doesn't tie it exclusivly to that or is the poppy not for rememberence of the world war 2 victims, korea ? falklands ? etc etc. you can't choose what conflicts you want the poppy to be associated with, yes to this one and no to that one. my guess is those people are the same sort of people who will pop a quid in the tins in many "irish" pubs in glasgow to support the cause of irish nationalsim based purely on their lineage. As far as I'm concerned the poppy is worn in remembrance of WW1 casualties, it bloomed over the battlefields and is therefore, associated solely with that. Remembrance day is for all casualties in all wars. pity those that died in world war II then with no rememberence insignia for them. the poppy is not worn in rememberence of any one particular war/conflict....it was, until there was another war. My sentiments exactly. I would happily wear a Poppy, but couldn't care less about the ''heroes'' who have murdered in Iraq and Afghanistan for example. "Murdered" who exactly?
  10. Calm down and eat some haggis man, 'moral laxity', f***ing hell. It's not like he's gone kicking orphans. if he did many on here wouldn't care if he played OK. I would imagine the percentage would be quite low tbh
  11. Joey wouldn't. He would rip their testicles off and feed them to a teammate like, but that's not the point.
  12. 1 match ban would suffice. That "punch" wouldn't send a pre-pubescent girl to the ground.
  13. OMGZZ that was the worst thing I have seen. Joey should be hanged innit.
  14. Loving the arrow-work Kai. Like a young Andy Gray
  15. Absolutely ne idea what to expect or what result would be good from this. At least, I hope we can play some decent football
  16. possibly but the standard on the bench is pretty poor. An off form Routledge, a untried Ranger, a not up to it Lovenkrands/Guthrie. Then should we be in the transfer market in January then? Definitely we needed more players in the summer. We need a 3rd striker (not a target man) and someone else for the wings if he isn't trusting Routledge. If HBA is out for the season maybe a loan replacement for him. Will probably all depend on who is yet to a sign a new contract and has one that runs out in the summer. This. But if we remain in the top half in January, will the fat man get his wallet out?
  17. Can only look forward to seeing Barton's death punch a.k.a the fist of doom.
  18. Well that was shocking. Fat fucking Sam will be as smug as ever. At least the heart disease will get him in time.
