Saw some mutton head walking in with a big f**k off ruckstack on his back, I was thinking what an absolute thick.

Needless to say he didn't get in.
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

I walked along the back of the south stand heading towards my section( west stand) and the difference in security checks was very noticeable. I presumed everyone in ground would be dealing with higher security checks. No-one got searched going into my section, while it looked like anyone heading into the south stand were getting searched head to toe. Very unfair just to single out 1 section like that imo.
If you have seen anti Celtic fan I stand next to I would say they are very right in what they do . ConfusedConfusedConfusedConfusedConfused

Italy beat Uruguay 3-0 tonight. Uruguay had a v similar team out to the one they had on Sunday. Interesting to compare how they got on in the two games.

Shocking own goal by Giminez, then Uruguay had a goal disallowed (soft) and Italy went ahead in the last 6 minutes or so with a fortuitous goal which Eder more or less deflected in from a shot coming into the 6 yard box, followed up by a penalty by De Rossi in the 92nd minute.

I personally think this is acceptable at international friendlies, if you go it is an excuse for a piss-up and no more. People go because of the season ticket or because of the 'duo' package. If you don't want kids to hear swearing then take them to the zoo, I agree that there is no need to be abusing players. Not for the sake of it anyway!

You obviously haven't been to the flamingo lagoon of recent.

Arter was terrific v Uruguay and he was in Vienna, but hold on a sec, the Brady/Whelan/Hendrick midfield three is tried and trusted and I can totally understand if Martin stays with them.  McClean will be left side, and I'd guess it'll be either McGeady on the right and Walters up top, or Walters on right and Murphy up top.


Hendrick on the right, Arter in the middle I think.

Qualifiers it's standing at the seat for 90 mins . Friendlies I wouldn't be as pushed to rush to my seat after half time .
Sure the Wales game when the second half started and for a good few minutes after there was as many outside on the concourse fckin dancing and singing as there was in the stand, 114 i might add and seems to be the same muppetts each time

Alcohol being available, where you have to camp out in the depths of the stadium, skulling a pint for fear you wish the 2nd half...that is not alcohol available in my book.

Unless you can sit at your seat sipping on your beer, then I couldn't be arsed.
