Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: JayBox325 on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:03:06 Great to see a minutes applause, such a sad reason behind it though :( RIP Nathan.
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Cookie on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:05:58 Chris Martin, fucking hell. We've gotta beat this lot.
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: kerry red on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:07:35 Whatever happened to Chris Iwelumo
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Cookie on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:09:35 Actually, talking to myself, I'm fairly relieved Steven Fletcher isn't playing. This will probably be our toughest match for a while.
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Nemo on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:10:51 Read the team news, sighed, went back to what I was doing before
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: kerry red on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:11:49 You'll go blind. You do know that?
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Cookie on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:35:18 Love a bit of pitch mic swearing.
And a goal Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Cookie on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:35:41 Decent one too.
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Ardiles on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:40:07 Am I imagining this, or did we once nearly sign Mulgrew?
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: TheMajorSTFC on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:43:34 So much for the hostile Celtic Park atmosphere - great goal from England, seem pretty comfortable at the moment and playing well!
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: kerry red on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:43:45 No. It was Pugh, Pugh not Charlie Mulgrew, but we did sign Cuthbert but not Dibble or Grubb
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Ardiles on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:44:14 Who are the England fans encouraging to 'Cheer up..'?
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Cookie on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:45:10 Scottish Bastards?
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Cookie on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:45:44 Rule Britannia was mint.
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: kerry red on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:45:53 Gordon Strachan?
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: TheMajorSTFC on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:46:07 Cheer up Gordon Strachan
Title: Re: Post by: Batch on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:50:39 Oh what can it mean?
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Ardiles on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:52:03 It's all a bit odd. I thought that there would be Saltires everywhere and a bit of atmosphere for this...but it does feel like any other friendly. Why is it that the Calcutta Cup game, which gets played every year, generates such passion - but when it comes to the football, no one really seems to care?
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: singingiiiffy on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:52:28 Am I imagining this, or did we once nearly sign Mulgrew? Agreed a fee of £150k with Wolves in 2008. Mulgrew turned us down. Looking at his career since it's clear he made the right choice Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Ardiles on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:56:34 Agreed a fee of £150k with Wolves in 2008. Mulgrew turned us down. Looking at his career since it's clear he made the right choice That's the one. Happened around the same time that Jerel Ifil went to Aberdeen (and then did nothing). Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Berniman on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 20:58:01 Whatever happened to Chris Iwelumo Retired at the start of this season Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Not that Nice If I'm Honest on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 21:01:33 Gordon Strachan? How bad can it be ? Your a crap Scottish Bastard With a Shit Football team Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Ardiles on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 21:09:14 I love Gordon Strachan.
Reporter: 'Gordon, can we have a quick word please? Strachan: 'Velocity.' [Walks off.] Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: BruceChatwin on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 21:10:31 It's all a bit odd. I thought that there would be Saltires everywhere and a bit of atmosphere for this...but it does feel like any other friendly. Why is it that the Calcutta Cup game, which gets played every year, generates such passion - but when it comes to the football, no one really seems to care? £55 for the cheapest ticket is a guaranteed atmosphere killer. Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Ardiles on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 21:11:46 Fantasy game scenario: Swindon vs Scotland?
Go on. Speculate. For the first time in ages, we don't have loads of Scots in the team (or management team), so it's a valid question. Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Batch on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 21:14:49 Just text my Scottish ex-colleague if there was anything good on TV..Only one of us found the text amusing it seems..
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Posh Red on Tuesday, November 18, 2014, 22:22:38 Always nice to beat them, even better when it happens in chilly jockland
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: jayohaitchenn on Wednesday, November 19, 2014, 08:05:33 Fantasy game scenario: Swindon vs Scotland? Go on. Speculate. For the first time in ages, we don't have loads of Scots in the team (or management team), so it's a valid question. We'd certainly give them a game. Looking at the team that played last night it's mostly Championship standard players and we're not too far away from that standard. Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Peter Venkman on Wednesday, November 19, 2014, 10:12:16 We'd certainly give them a game. Looking at the team that played last night it's mostly Championship standard players and we're not too far away from that standard. I was thinking that while watching them yesterday too. England passed the ball well but the Jocks wouldn't be a threat in the Championship IMO, too many poor passes and no end product at all.Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: Honkytonk on Wednesday, November 19, 2014, 12:16:10 I reckon we'd win. Just.
Title: Re: Sweaties v England Post by: jayohaitchenn on Wednesday, November 19, 2014, 15:25:18 We'd be the underdog for sure, it's whether we could raise ourselves for that one off occasion a la Wigan/Burnley cup games of recent years.
