I occasionally tell people, "My worst day out on the hills is always better than my best day at work".
I'm certain that substituting the words 'fitba' and 'rugby' would also apply.
Get the caviar from the picnic basket in the Range Rover, Torquil, there's a good fellow.
You weren't the bloke on the telly with tears in his eyes? I mean, I wanted us to win but ffs
We were pretty clinical first half and professionally finished the game off. But at times in the second half it got very worrying. Fagerson did well playing the full 80, actually all the forwards did well. Laidlaw and Hogg were the best of the backs.
Stephen Jones in his Lions watch in the Sunday Times had Kearney playing better than Hogg, Ritchie playing better than Johnny Gray and CJ Stander having a mare. I suspect he was trying to be controversial as I couldn't disagree with him more.
Went to a Scotland V Ireland game a few years back when Ireland won the triple crown was bored out of my t*ts. **** atmosphere queue a mile deep to get a beer opposing fans in a big love-in with home fans and 95% of the folk without a clue as to how the scoring works and why penalties were given. Give me the tribal nature and the simplicity of the game of fitba any day.
Three players? I can name the whole team.
There is that player that used to play for Rangers, who went down south and can't get a game down there, that player who used to play for Rangers that went down south and has gone from a good team to progressively worse teams and obviously you could not forget that player who used to play for Rangers that went down south who plays for a no mark team and none of their supporters rate him in any way.
then there is any Scottish players who have played at least 2 games for Celtic.
and that foreign player whose great great grandfather once had a piss next to a guy whose friend had *** with a girl whose father worked with a guy from Montrose.
bloody good team that. cannot believe we are ****e.
I am convinced that at scrums the referee has no idea who pulled the scrum down or turned it.
trick I learned with the beer is to buy 3 pints instead of one... drink one on your way back to your seat, drink one at your seat and drink the third queuing for three more beers.
...and then spend most of the game apologising to all the folk in your row having to stand every 5 minutes so you can go for another p!sh.
France on Sunday. Scrum will again come under some pressure as the french pack looks massive but hopefully we will have enough mobility around the field to tire the fat (unts out
