How long's Jota out for? Would be nice to score some goals in a match

I suppose you'd take a point at Anfield as the away side, but it does feel like a bit of a missed opportunity. Both attacks were rubbish, both defences were solid. Think City are the real winners from this one.

The point I’m making is that every support has a hard core of banana splits. It’s easy enough to gooseberry fool on the green brigade because they’re a bunch of entitled morons who, as far as I’m concerned, don’t speak for the majority of supporters(same with the union bears and the staunch penguin).

Aberdeen fans are some of the worst supporters I’ve ever had dealings with, just as sectarian and violent in their own way as anything I’ve seen from Rangers(I can’t make an unbiased comment on Celtic save from accepting that there’s a very problematic element in my experience as a ST holder). Weirdly enough, Birmingham City fans are strawberry floating disgraceful in my experience in that regard as well.

EDIT: I should say this isn't a rant at you BOH, you've always seemed like a fairly head-screwed-on football man and Christ knows the rest of the SPFL have enough reasons to hate the Old Firm. :lol:


I think that's ridiculous given it has no religious connotations as far as I'm aware.

I just base my opinion on my friends and peers (maybe I hang about with scumbags : :slol:) and not a single OF firm amongst them is level headed or staying away from the sectarian aspect of it all. Maybe I am biased, but from experience, it doesn't seem to be the minority of fans being scummy when it comes to the OF.

Anyway, I'm going against my actual opinion on the league and how it should have been handled, but I am PRAYING for a null and void just to witness the meltdown.


This, btw. No question it should be a Rangers league win if they have to shut it down, but the nuclear scenes coming from Govan if they cancelled the whole thing would be hilarious.

That's the greatest owning of a troll I've ever seen. Bravo to that mod. :lol:


It's the sheer panic emanating from every post the guy makes after it as well, it's just wonderful. :lol:


The mod/admin explaining how they only authorised the account after searching the email address... :lol:


It was an absolute set up and I for one strawberry floating love it. :lol:

In order from worst fans to best:

Chelsea/Rangers > Aberdeen > every other football club

Just from my own experiences of course. But as such, the definitive list for ever more.

If only the breakaway 'super' league had come to fruition, we could've yesterday's Man U and Liverpool match way more often. :datass: :toot:

Big Sam delivering as always :datass:

Feels like an age since Villa played, just under 3 weeks ago I think it was, but should be back to it this week. First match back is against the best team in the league at the moment. :lol: :dread:

Yeap, knew it'd be 0-0. To be fair I was out for the first half, read the bbc article when I got home and decided, nahhhhh.

I'm probably just being a knob right now, I think my enjoyment has gone, I'll stop trolling in this topic and rejoin when I find the spark again.

You mock Curls and yet, undoubtedly, he made the right call here! :lol:

To be fair that game is never enjoyable unless you're winning 3-0 or more

Fresh from their first title in 25 years, Liverpool find themselves fighting for their lives in 3rd place, a huge 3 points off the top. Curls decides, he just can't cope with the pain anymore and with a heavy heart, he says goodbye. He will be missed

Maybe part of it is you living abroad, I definitely feel less connected with Hibs when away from Edinburgh for a long time.

Not sure there’s anything weaker right now than an Arsenal corner. :fp:

Good second half performance from Arsenal and good for Auba to get goals. Newcastle looked poor as Neville has just said they need a change of ownership quickly.
