You'd be as well keeping out of a west of Scotland 'football discussion' when you don't understand what's being discussed. And it's got very little to do with Israel and Palestine. It's Rangers v Celtic. Go back to sleep.
One thing my life has thankfully never been blighted by - and that is 'West of Scotland football discussion' and I thank my lucky stars every day for it - I'll stay in ignorance, thanks. :wave:
Unfortunately, where I stay, it's a very difficult thing to avoid.

I do try my best

I unfortunately hail from the same town as the fucknuggets in this video (as does another poster on here who I will not 'out'). :doh: :witzend:

On a more positive, boxing related note, so does Don McMillan who holds wins over Minter and Finnegan.

I know it's a boxing forum, but you can't just throw terms like p4p in reference to anything you like...

Mind you going by our logic, yours is older, so it ranks higher in ATG status, so it must be better

Well we get like 50,000 people here during TT fortnight, population's less than 90,000, bet Britain doesn't get more than half its population descending on it at any one time.


Also that thing's a boat lift not a water wheel :-P
