Well it was fun watching Ayr balls theirs up. You thinking we'll get an away fixture to start the season next year too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinny Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Can we draw a line under this flag debate? Nobody is going to convince anyone else. The topic has moved completely away from the game, if it carries on I might actually do my first bit of moderating in what feels like a decade.

Weebaw1 Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Does anyone know whether the fight took place between the Ayr guy and our guy? They both disappeared and didn’t seem to reappear. A throwback to the 70’s. My son had never seen anything like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread has certainly gone off-topic, though I think the flag debate is a discussion worth having. New thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potty trained Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 31 minutes ago, Norgethistle said: Penned by Irish Nationalists in Sinn Fein & adopted by Scottish Nationalists, never heard in any of the previous colonies This is from 2010, taken from an "independent media" website: Britain with brutal and violent oppression colonized over 57 countries mostly in the 16th/17th centuries. None of the countries asked to be colonized and most of them had to resort to bloody and violent insurgency to drive the British out and gain their freedom/independence back. To the majority of those colonized the Union Jack was known as the 'Butchers Apron'. Though Britain boasted the sun never set on the British Empire, it would be more true to say, 'the sun never set and the blood of innocents never dried.'

twinny Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 I've locked the thread as anyone looking for analysis of the game (probably) won't be interested in the flag debate. Feel free to carry it on in the general forum. If you want the posts transferred to a new thread in that forum just let me know by PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
