As a Scot I feel proud, yet disappointed.
That, by the way, is no dig as I loathe Anglophobia. Please believe that.
All on the last game now (though this is dependent as always on others).
Radio Clyde played Highland Cathederal at 1800 and I ended up in tears.
Confident and assertive. Again, sorry to be a prick, but I am so proud.

Fake Taxi has gone to shit these days
Genuine beer spit moment.
Bravo Sir.
As for Fake Taxi, I was in a minivan with my work when one of the guys said "Look, that is the fake taxi crew".
I responded with "I think that is either Axa Jay or Satine Spark"
Cue silence.
I work with kids who have Additional Support Needs.
Maybe not the time.

Ladbrookes are offering an England - Scotland Halftime/Fulltime odds of 80/1.
Reason I am punting on that is in 2002 William Hill put 66/1 on Argentina vs England 1 - 0 with Beckham scoring.
I talked a mate who, to this day this is the only bet he has placed (lottery included).
He put £25 on. I got pished and misjudged what time the game started.
My mate offered to give me £250, to which I told him to fuck off.
Waited nineteen years to avenge what was my fault.

As a Celtic fan I am 100% convinced that if he hadn't been buscuit tinned out of the door then the teams collapse would have not happened.
No taking away from Rangers deserved success but it would not have been as easy if Craig Gordon, who is a better keeper than Bain, Russian Dude and Hazard, had been there.
So as much as I like Marshall, Gordon is still an incredible goalkeeper but if he had been in the place Marshall (in my opinion) should have been then would he been able to run as fast?
Mate, your point about McGregor rings true as well.

Neither the commentators nor the folk in the studio mentioned David Marshall for fault for that second goal and instead all seemed to pile on Jack Hendry. Yes, it was naïve as fuck for him to take a shot for 35 yards and nothing but bodies in front of him but the broadcasts I was watching didn't seem to question what the hell David Marshall was doing almost at the centre circle for seemingly no reason. No need to be up there at all. I suspect that given the (rightful) praise he's had since becoming the (rightful) Saint David of Belgrade, the commentary teams were loathe to criticise him for being hopelessly and needlessly out of position, but he was definitely at fault for that one I reckon. Had he stayed on his line, nothing comes of it.
I agree but only to an extent.
If Marshall had stayed even five yards further back then he would have been able to push the shot away.
Hendry had fuck all reason to go for the shot. As modern football is so fast the, inevitable, deflection was going to cause problems whereas Shick was risking fuck all.

In seven World Cups and three European Championships Scotlsnd have won a single opening game. This was in 1982 when the goals lost in a 5 2 victory came back to bite us on the ass.
I am proud of that performance. Obviously the chances missed are frustrating but we were up against a great keeper and their second goal was insane.
As an eternal optimist I still think a win against England is possible.
In my last post I meant Che Adams. He always looks strong.

Scotland really need to sharpen their finishing as there were enough chances made.
I think abject is a but harsh. Evans contribution to the game was noticeable.

Note to all: this is the epitome of the kind of garbage post we're talking about when we say 'no live chat' and why the rule exists.
Zero tolerance* on any more in this thread going forward. So don't do it unless you want to be suspended for the rest of the tournament.
* it might not actually be zero tolerance, but don't be a dick and don't do it please.
Genuine apologies. Sorry

Has anyone heard this version of the scumbag who phoned WCW to pass on that Stuff Hart had died.
I remember it but Bishoff here claims that is was a rib by a WCW wrestler.

Revisiting an old joke:
Dermott Desmond and Steven Gerrard go for a few pints. One looks up at a shelf and says "that's a fucking magic lantern". So they both give it a rub and, sure enough, this Genie appears and grants each a wish.
Dermott says "sort the team out and go the rest of the season unbeaten to build momentum". Gerrard asks for the same but for the unbeaten spell to last the 2021 to 2022 season so Rangers claim the SPFL, League Cup, Scottish Cup and most of all the Champions League".
Genie snaps at Gerrard, calling him a fucking greedy Scouse cunt. Gerrard turns to the Genie and says
ALL TOGETHER NOW
"He fucking started it".

Sorry about the obscure question but this is the best place to ask here.
I saw a documentary about Lord Lucan a year or so ago. His favourite card game was one with (I think) a French name bit one where the dealer would serve the player each card on a long handled wooden device.
I googled it at the time but have forgotten the name.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks in advance
