What a daft statement to make !.....Scotland have beat England once in the last 30 years,in the years since they last met the English league has become stronger than it was then and the Scottish league has become worse......virtually none of the Scotland first team play for the top clubs......virtually none of the Scotland first team match up player for player with the England first team...................................what possible reason is there to think there " wouldnt be much in it " between the 2 squads.

We had 2 battles with the Germans last century,1 battle with the Argies 30 years ago.....................................................................Bannockburn I think 700 odd years is long enough for the dust to settle dont you .....But then i suppose when you never have a lot to shout about you have to remember these little victories that everyone else has long forgot

Subconsciously we all route for one team or another when watching as a neutral for any number of reasons thats just the nature of watching competetive sport.........so im a high and mighty unpatriotic person because im not all bitter and twisted towards Scotland a nation who has never done me any harm and a place and people i infact quite like ..................i think gr ch is right....its almost like you Jocks try to create something thats not really there just so nobody completely forgets about you .

Media sensationalism i reckon.....................................i hope ......i didnt see the documentary but ive heard enough of that twat Sol Campbell ranting on about it to know it wasnt too clever.......like theres not enough happening on the pitch to worry about !!

In Willows defence,i think he knows plenty enough about the type of yard dogs i was referring to gr ch

Just wondered if any of you footie chaps are going to the Euros ?.....could maybe meet in a boozer for a few jars and act stupid,normally at these tournaments they give you designated pubs so shouldnt be too difficult to find one another........im only going to the 2 games in Donetsk not doing the middle one in Kiev...........and maybe,possibly,hopefully 1,2.....or even 3 games after the group stage. What about you Micks anyone going ? Your games are closer together than ours i think theres only 3 or 4 hours between your 2 grounds.......but still think id prefer Ukraine to Poland .....cert

Maybe you should go to a football match occasionally and understand what " support " means.........i wouldnt go to a match Scotland was taking part in unless England was their opponents but id certainly route for them on the telly whoever they was playing...........thats not " supporting " them.........so im not very patriotic because id route for Scotland in a game against Japan ...................i think you Jocks are trying a little too hard with this " hate the English " thing and i think it bothers you that we dont particularly hate you back
-
Well id class myself a real football fan and i have no desire to see Scotland get humped whatsoever.......i follow my club wherever they go and despise our rivals with a passion in every way possible.........but international football rivalry is just not about football......would England class the Argies or Germany as rivals if we hadnt had wars with them of course we wouldnt.................i have nothing against the Jocks but if yous hate us so much that you class us as rivals then maybe that says more about the Scottish mentality than it says about football rivalry.

Im obssessed with Scotland ......I havent seen you talk about " teams in the competition " as you put it...all ive seen you talk about is England........ .Im not deflecting anything,im simply saying if you Scots showed as much passion for your own game as you do about pulling England apart you might just get somewhere.......the premier league in Scotland got an overall average attendance of 13,000 last year......thats 4,000 less than our Championship league got and you only have 12 teams for f**k sake !!.....and never mind 60,000 how many Scottish teams can fill 15,000 seater stadiums.....2 !

Good stuff and i certainly wouldnt question your expertise on the subject as the proofs in the pudding so to speak.....and certainly better to have something a little over engineered than a little under of course.......as regards which type of dog would test a collar more im sure some of these big bull crosses are far stronger than a pure bulldog.........but on a yard of multiple dogs a bulldog is often stressing a collar for 20 - 24 hours per day 7 days a week 52 weeks a year,not just a few hours per day out in the field.......from what ive seen of your collars they are strong,compact and dur

Like i said " our " biggest enemies.....i doubt we are theirs simply as we cant f****n beat them ....but hey,at least we are usually in the fight. I dont understand all this the other nations say about the English arrogance......what arrogance ?......name me 1 Englishman who has said they think we will win the Euros ?.......personally i would be over the moon if we could reach the semis i think that would be a great achievement.......theres no reason whatsoever to think we could win it...but that dont mean we cant hope does it ?.....we are a passionate footballing nation why wouldnt we co

Only just watched the fight this morning....what a fantastic performance i thought Froch fought perfectly he put it on Bute from the start and was just too intense,i really admire Froch he is what we English love.......he,s not a particularly skillful or talented fighter....he,s none too graceful and certainly has a lot of technical faults......but by f**k does that boy have desire and a will to win its so refreshing to watch a fighter like him wear his heart on his sleeve and put everything on the line with no fear of losing fights i think he,s a great example to the young fighters coming thr

Must admit i think all this " collar will last longer than the dog " thing is a little bit daft......who cares if you need to spend 15 - 20 quid once in 10 years....or twice......the difference must add up to about 5 pence per week !!...ok i understand the sales pitch but in reality i think the strength thing is all a little bit over the top..........a strong bulldog on a chain then yes absolutely as the collar is the weak link in any chain set up....but for running dogs or bull cross types i dont quite get it For what its worth i think SS collars are as good as any ive used or seen todays t

Nice to see folk getting back on the horse so to speak.......i remember years ago it took me quite a while to get my confidence back up i acted like a big girls blouse for the first few months.....and i was sposed to be a big toughie ............so to see a young lass get straight back into the swing of things tells me we,re either all made different......im a fairy....or you are the toughie ..................................think i,ll settle for a little of each ............................good for you anyway.
-
From a neutrals point of view it looks a bit of a wimpish signing if you ask me......a couple of decent seasons at Swansea and questionable spells at Reading and Watford,big deal......dont seem enough weight for a big club like Liverpool.......my guess is the owners are simply trying to bargain their way along for the next few years......after all no sensible businessmen are going to throw 100 million at something to get little in return......only to do the same thing next year !.........i cant see many big money signings and would fear this being the first signs of mid table mediocrity for Li

Man with no arms or legs sitting in his wheelchair shouting over the garden fence taking the piss out of his neighbors sprained ankle !.....Thats how you Jocks sound ! I know one thing.....if English football was in the diabolical mess Scottish footballs in,if England wasnt good enough to qualify for the tournament and Scotland was......i certainly wouldnt be keen to engage in conversation about football id be hiding behind the sofa .......Yet here we are with a topic about Euro 2012 and who has the most to say.......................the Jocks And i agree with Lurcher1......Scotland are

oi oi......never thought id see the day i sang the night away with a bunch of Chelsea fans !!...............I cant handle my drink so i normally steer clear....but stone me i think we,ve drunk in every pub in London over the last 24 hours.....we deserved that win.....finishing 11 points ahead with a 8-1 aggregate score over Blackpool it would of been an injustice if we,d lost.......the only down side is having sold our 40,000 allocation of tickets in 1 day the fa wouldnt let us have the 9,000 tickets that Blackpool returned....but for that Wembley would of been packed to the rafters. Great da

ol give the boy a break for f**k sake !!......He,s the captain of the club and the most succesful captain the clubs ever had.....why would he not lift the trophy !!!! Good on him he,s not interested in pleasing the public he,s just interested in pleasing his own....who do you think the rest of his team mates wanted to see lift the trophy ? who do you think every single Chelsea fan in the land wanted to see lift the trophy ? the boys an iconic figure at Chelsea sometimes you just gotta hold your hands up and say " well done "...... Some folk just aint happy unless they got something to moan a

Exactly right.............ive never known the kid Sam obviously he,s a different generation to me but his dad Terry was well respected he might not of been a squeaky clean 9 to 5 type but beneath all the bullshit there was a good man there.......its the saddest part of this whole story that he never saw justice done and it was his death that really got the ball rolling.......compensation wise its going to be a lot more than 120k !

Im inclined to agree with Baw to an extent....not sure id go as far as to call him a journeyman but Owen definately never lived up to his early promise.....think his injuries took a yard of pace from him which dont help,but even so i think his major downfall over the years has been his attitude......all he seems bothered about is horses !.....Seems like footie was just a source of income to fund his real interest,as soon as he became wealthy he seemed to lose interest in playing football and was happy to pick up wages sitting on a bench......dont think he ever really had the hunger or desire t

Cant see it being much of a test for Price he seems a genuine prospect and a level or 2 above Sexton,be a big size difference as well id imagine..... wouldnt be surprised to see Price get him out early 1 or 2 rounds.
