The fourth official should be isolated during the match, should he not?

“We blew Aberdeen away,”

Not like you to exaggerate, Gaffer. But I know what you mean.

I think my keelie derivation was a speculation by Jack House rather than a proven fact. Sounds right, though.

Barisic will need to know this when he’s chasing down enemy wingers.

Not Kellys but ghillies or a corruption thereof. Glesca bobbies in the old days  were usually big Highland stirks -and Presbyterian, gaelic speaking strirks at that. So when they were hailing malefactors to stop what they were doing they would shout “hey, ghillie” (“hey, fellow”)

Just be thankful the bobbies weren’t recruited from the north-east. They would have been shouting “hey, loon”. Better Glesca keelies than Glesca looneys.

“Weegie” is an Embra word is it not?

I was brought up to call my Glesca relations ”keelies”

Rangers supporters are too busy with their employment or running their own businesses to have time for politics.

That’s not a Windsor. I’m assuming the photo is from yesterday.

I’m relieved about that because in an all inclusive, best wee country in the world you must be excluded from knotting your tie in a germanic, royalist way causing offence to millions 

Billy Dodds - yes, Billy Dodds - calls Gerrard naive.

Tadpole criticises shark.

Imperial Bears may have a point to make but it would be better condensed into a four sentence paragraph.

2-1 the Lads. Ha’way.

I thought Burnley would trash Aberdeen home and away. The current Clarets may be a way short of the calibre of their illustrious predecessors in European competition but you don’t finish as high up the EPL as they did without a considerable degree of competence. Nonetheless in two attempts, they could not beat a team of sheep over ninety minutes.

Are Aberdeen better than we think?

Will they be buoyed up by two creditable performances?

Or will they be drained by their considerable efforts at Turf Moor?

Who knows? Anyone?

Street and wasteground football with no referee is where you learned about democracy in resolving vital issues like hit the post and over the bar.

Now wee boys decked out in full Barce livery throw tantrums on all weather pitches while some poor mug tries to referee the game in front of a baying throng of parents and siblings.

"Jumpers for goalposts!".

Three and in.

Three corners a penalty.

A deep lying inside forward or attacking wing half. Got it now. “Midfielder” is a modern term for me.

I hope Compo is reading and learning.

What’s an eight?

Why do you want to buy them? We took a barrowload off them.

Pompous drivel.

Do you not think both Mrs Trump and Mme Macron have an extra-terrestrial look about them? Tear off the plastic face masks and there are reptilian aliens underneath.

Old style ‘Well shirt in the background.

Do you think he’ll start playing for Arsenal?

Chelsea need to be looking longer term and building something. They're a mess.

Last time you said that, Chelsea won it in a canter.

A most enjoyable commentary. No bias, no prejudice, no incomprehensible, hee-hawing banter.

Talksport2, of course.

All republican lefties.

A ‘bus I used to guest on passed Haymarket, the gateway to Gorgie. Always seemd to be dozens of blue scarves milling about. Too early in the day for Hearts guys to be around I suppose.

I'm surprised at the meaning of "brake" club because I've seen photos of an old banner that's got Kinning Park Brake club on it. Why would these guys have needed any transport to Ibrox

parkhead, Shawfield, Cathkin, Firrhill maybe.
