Any game that can drag slowly on for days and then wind up in a draw is fundamentally flawed imho.., and could only have been invented by the English. Scotland has invented a few of it’s own sports down the years.., football being the obvious one, but the likes of shinty is pretty ‘niche’ and only survives as it’s played traditionally in some areas and communities but has never really caught on or spread very far. Just clocked a few of your English hating posts you're clearly looking for a bite so lets give it to you.....how are you working out that the Scots invented football ? I was always of the understanding it was something to do with the Ebenezer chap who founded Barnes Fc.....the only reason thats stuck in my mind all this time is because the local East London boys club Senrab who have produced many top class pro's over the years were named after the backward spelling of Barnes Fc....maybe you can enlighten us all ? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Arry 26,821 Posted 17 hours ago Report Share Posted 17 hours ago (edited) Reporting Pot holes is bloody hard work. Question's. Do you want to report a pot hole? Is it bigger than a dinner plate? Is it as deep as 2 twenty pence pieces on edge? Has it got a vertical edge? Do you still want to report a pot hole? Click on every picture that has a bridges in it. Click on every picture that has a motor bike in it. This pot hole has been reported twice already. Do you still want to report this pot hole. Click on every picture that has a bridge in it. By this time I have lost the will to live. So some twat in a van can go out and spray a circle around one pot hole and leave all the others that are within meters of it. Then some guy come around pours some tarmac into a wet hole. That all pops out two days later. Rant over Lol. Cheers Arry Edited 14 hours ago by Arry 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was a tongue in cheek throw away remark, and certainly not giving any worse than I’ve got on here, but apologies if I’ve offended. As for actually inventing the game of football, I doubt we’ll ever know who first kicked something about and turned it into a competition, but I’d reckon it’d be way before Ebenezer Cobb Morley wrote down the first rules.., and which I believe were to distinguish the game from rugby. I was (apparently offensively ) referring to the ‘Scotch Professors’ who brought to England a passing style of play, to what was at the time apparently the individual dribbling or kick and rush tactics played in the earliest association football.

It dont bother me squire i just clocked 2 or 3 of your posts digging out the English so presumed you was after a bite. What,and thats it.....Scottish men kicked a ball from one man to the other first so they invented the modern game of football Its like saying Adam once gave Eve a clump so the Middle East invented Boxing ffs !! Yeah i think i'll be sticking with Google on this one Edited 12 hours ago by gnasher16 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
