Johny Giles was talking about Dave Mackay getting so little caps for Scotland which he said was scandalous but Bremner was actually playing so well for Scotland they couldnt drop him. Mackay was a hero to Bremner he also said
And it's come through now to mackay... and it's there

The Scots were too tight to pay for their transport home so said they were injured

Dunno how I could have discussed this without referencing one of my favourite football photos of all time:



Anyhow, this guy has an interesting take on Mackay:

Note that when Sir Alex Ferguson and Hugh McIlvanney got together to pick their greatest ever Scotland team, not only did they include Mackay, but they made him Captain.

P.S. Apparently he was proud of his record of never getting sent off in his entire career!

Bremner not going to put up any resistance there! Venables in the background.
I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

No suitable thread

Billy Gilmour named in the U21 squad.
Surprised he wasn’t put into the senior squad. He looked great for Chelsea the last 2 games.

How come all the rough and ready sh*tholes keep closing? They always the best. Bairds in Glasgow  was great spot if ya  didnt mind not having a toilet street, bog roll and having to sh*t in front of a crowd due to no toilet doors half the time

I was in the new Baird’s and I liked it, it isn’t the same though. I actually think a lot of pubs and pub companies are doing themselves out of business by not catering for different markets. There used to be pubs for different occasions, times and situations. It is harder to find the dodgy kip now.
 There used be a decent dive bar near me. The clientele was heavy drinking regulars by day, music fans at night and football fans at weekends. It had some cracking punk and ska nights, barely drinkable beer but very cheap shots and bottles. It kicked all the regulars out, had a refurbishment and is now empty every time I walk past. 

In saying that, I was in Scotland for the first time in a while recently and found there was a better mix. The Central Bar in Leith is still as it was! Change from a fiver for two drinks, everybody a different level of drunk and the worst pub band I have heard. Tremendous.

Egerton arms in Stockport like that, £1.80 for pint of John Smith's, £2.30 for Carling, mix of pikeys, Bagheads, oaps, homeless lads stinking place out, and the hi vis brigade after work. Bar half the crowd,  go bust, change owners, let everyone back in and same thing again. Dukebox free and half the fights start over that.
