International weekend and, more importantly, it's my birthday.
I didn't know bots had birthdays

Daniels tomorrow night for me.

Aye it's a bit of a joke now. And that comment about "not being able to win that battle no matter how hard they try" is a joke. I guess it's lucky the East Stand stewards only stand up to wee boys then or that might be another battle they can't win.

Me too. You work hard for your £19

So you think where your born is what makes you? So if your born in London your english? If your born in Paris your French?
Yes! If you're born in London you are English. It's that simple.
Now, personally, I think McCarthy, Aiden McGeady, & Jim O'Brien are Scottish. BUT they don't. And this is the point Im making, it is not up to me, you or anybody else to judge what country they feel loyal to.If I have an opinion I'll make it, whether it's in the stand at Fir Park or on an internet forum. I can form any opinion I like and voice it as my own. Do you have a problem with that?
And so when people take it upon themselves to shout abuse at them, Im saying it is because they can't accept these players have chose Ireland over Scotland. Whether I think they are right or not, I don't have the right to pick for them and so I should let them get on with the football.I also think if it was Australia rather than Ireland they chose, their would be little or probably no criticisim.
Yes, you are right, that's the point. They chose another country over Scotland and in my eyes that near enough treason and unforgivable.

Anyone who pretends they boo McCarthy for his ability should admit it has nothing to do with it IMO. He is a good player but one who I definately don't think is such a stand out he would be booed if he didn't pull on an Ireland top instead of a Scotland one.
I think people who waste their time abusing wee boys because of their nationality are really just pathetic.
Your at a game of football, enjoy it & go home.
And if you do shout and ball at a 17 year old player, at least admit its because you can't accept what country he is from.
Rant over.
Sorry, but James McCarthy was born on November 12th 1990 in Glasgow.
What part of Ireland is Glasgow in again? I forget.
EDIT: This is on his Wiki.
McCarthy was born in Scotland and has chosen to play for the Republic of Ireland due to his Irish heritage. Partly as a result of this McCarthy has experienced playful and light hearted chants from supporters of Dundee Utd[2], Rangers[3] and Motherwell[4]. -
Multiple threads now?
Oh dear.

I find it a bit strange that Hughes and Fizzy are both tall skinny guys with a similar build and although Hughes might be the better technical player, Fitzpatrick is street ahead physically.
-
Aye I'd go with that
Well the way I see it, James McCarthy, regardless of cirsumstance, chose another country over that of his birth.
Ross Tokely, regardless of circumstance, knocked his with about.
If you're big enough to chose another country over your own or slap your wife about then you have to be big enough to take abuse for it.
Folk like Diamond and Davie Dodds just had bad luck

99% of things that can be used to slag an opposing footballer can and will be used. The folk who are easily offended by this need to get over it.
James McCarthy is in the wrong country
Ross Tokely beats his wife
Zander Diamond is a mutant etc
99% of things are fair game, including the above.

Unlucky lads. I think I'm going to try and get to some of the youth games, we seem to be some team.

Changed seats to the end section of the east and It was much clearer.
What a difference ten metres makes.
Yeah, where I normally sit it was horrible but I moved over one section and it was clear as day.
-
Quality player. Really like the way he looks so awkward on the ball as if he doesn't know what he's goig to do next.
Well done pal.

The stewarding is a joke. I was in the last section and stood the whole game. Only once were we told to sit down, the whole section still stood up and we weren't asked again. They think cause they're wee boys they can boss them about, rather shite tbh.
