or to be more accurate 'cordwainers', cobblers historically being shoe repairers more than shoe makers.

chin up lads the only way is up

Fitting song OP
Peed myself when they played the Beatles taxman song yesterday at Pittodrie

were you at the game?

did you hear the motherwell fans sing 'let's all laugh at rangers' last week at parkhead?

seems like sheadenfreud is more than just a celtic pleasure

Na mate am in Australia so its just CelticTV for me.
Aye is good to see the the joy is spreading throughout the country

you lucky lhad. im jealous. how long you been down there? do you miss dreich scotland?

41 years take some time spent back home and in the US
Miss some things a lot but have to say overall Aus is pretty hard to knock.

41 years and your still missing things? I think that speaks well about here. How did you end up so far away from home and how did the US compare to OZ?

Sorry for being a nosey burger but im interested

Nae bother Parker
Family emigrated when I was wean. The US aint bad actually got more similarities with OZ than its differences.
The US is more of a continent feel to it though. Although huge distances between them Aussies are basically the same no matter where you go in the US its like a collection of different nationalities from state to state.

got a mate from rockhampton down there. when i saw the pics of his hometown it reminded of a small town US. and whats with all this 'nae bother' stuff, surely u have an ozzy accent if youve been away so long?

Am bilingual
Actually never planned it that way just always talked scots at home and with reletives here and picked up the aussie accent as I wnt outside.
Made mates and girlfriends etc laugh as when in mixed company I switch atween the two depending on who I am talking to. Not a concious thing seems like a switch in the brain somewhere.

its a wonderful gift to speak a foreign language so kudos to you my man I know what u mean about being bi lingual as i moved to london as a kid and lived there for 30 years. When i was at school my mock cockney was a thing to behold

Where you delbhoy or rodney

definitely more of a rodders. the glaikit type

he had a good heart right enough

Away to get something to eat then kick back with a to watch the cricket have a good one OP

aye heart in the right place but the brain somewhere else. sounds about right

Op

Said the same on a previous thread and out came the bile from the radio phone in sort u describe

There have been precedents where turmoil had united the teams across the OF divide.

Tommy Burns funeral being an example. Where Ally helped carry his coffin

Noones looking for sympathy or handouts. Sims some respect. The ghoulish nature of some people's comments discredits themselves and the good name of Celtic

Personel tragedy and sporting rivalry aint exactly one in the same. While Smith and McCoist's prominent roles in Burn's funeral was a great display of how some things go behond what ever side you support
Nothing to do with one set of fans gloating over the misfortune of their rivals especially considering the situation they are in was self inflicted and came about by trying to cheat the very support that are now laying the boot in , my conscience is clear so GIRUY

You have to also factor in the call screening process. Nutters on anything ussually makes for better ratings/ circulation numbers than someone talking the baseline of what ever the topic is.

To be honest I like them as an ex-pat as it gives you the chance to listen to the patter.
Dont know if I would listen as often if I was still living in Scotland.
The yanks are ten times worse obvioulsy about their sports
