This comment about Jack is worrying for me. I can't imagine that there are hordes of teddy bears all wanting independence and I imagine anything said by the SNP will be counterproductive.

Congrats on winning a 2 horse race against a lame horse.
Good to see Jack though.
This comment about Jack is worrying for me. I can't imagine that there are hordes of teddy bears all wanting independence and I imagine anything said by the SNP will be counterproductive.
The person in the next bed to me in the RAH in January 2019 was a red hot Rangers supporter. The cover of his iPad was emblazoned with the Union Jack and he hated the SNP.
Needless to say we got speaking about football and I mentioned that the one and only time I had been in Ibrox was on Sunday 17th February 1974 when Dundee beat Rangers 3-0 in a Scottish Cup tie.
Initially he did not believe me but on checking his iPad he discovered that my information was correct.
I once told a Rangers fan that I'd been to a Dundee - Rangers game on 30th February 'two years ago' that we won 4-0, can't remember the exact year but it was a while ago now.
It was a week before he came back to me and announced that it couldn't have been 30th February two years ago because that wasn't a leap year. They're not the brightest lot generally speaking.
At one point I'd been to ibrox 7 times and only seen the Mighty lose once.
The glory days.😁
That cup tie was the first time a Scottish game had been played on a Sunday, I believe the crowd was 65,000
I am the same as Rros, been seven times to Ibrox and only one defeat when Hartley was manager, just a few years ago.
Lost a goal after 30 seconds, think it was the quarter final,about the only under Hartley that we got past the first round.
