If Scotland were independent

They would have to sell an island or two to Trump

Was thinking this a few days ago.

They would be fecked.

However - the emotively charged Bravehearts will still want INDEPENDENCE.

Thinking with their insular jingoistic hearts - and not their heads.

If only Whitehall would let them ago - and take that other financial drain Northern Ireland with them, too.

Krankie would be heading to the UK government... School cap in hand

I think Scotland would survive given that they have all our Water, Agriculture and Energy sources. You know, the resources that keep the UK economy afloat.

I agree, England should get the Vote on Scottish Independence, but then again, it was all the English and their descendants up here that denied the indigenous Scots their Independence.

“It was all the English and their descendants up here that denied the indigenous Scots their Independence”.

Look, I don’t want to be indelicate but you were given your chance at the polling stations and bottled it. That’s bad enough, of course, but giving it large pre-referendum then choking on th day itself is rather pathetic.

Not all choked Johnny but I agree with you, the chokers were pathetic.

Was only teasing TMM. Hope you’re well mate.

I know Johnny

I am ok (I think) but three known cases within the family. They are young though and hopefully will recover. Two abroad in England.

I hope that you are well Johnny. You and your family and friends please stay safe mate.

So much arrogance and hatred from the English towards the Scottish and Scotland plc. Burt even posted his mocking of the Scottish across multiple forums.

Not surprised though. They've never regarded the Scottish as equally able.

Sorry to hear that TMM, that must be a terrible worry for you. Thanks for your kind message; we’re looking fine thanks. Keep yourselves safe and well too.

It would had been nice to see Scotland go independent as clearly part of union isnt for them, Then to see the upcommance that krankie has earned would had been special.

Cheers johnny, appreciate that.

All the best mate to you and family and friends.

Hi Mac good to see you back. Missed yer jokes. Had to listen to Nish instead.

Pretty grim outlook if thats all we have to fall back on. Five and a half million Scots surviving on vegetables.
The Ozone layer would be blown away.

Agriculture includes livestock as well.

Thanks aka. Nish`s jokes make mine look hysterical.

I did post last week on your Rangers thread but you probably missed it.

During the 70s there was a shortage of tatties and the old Miners were panicking unable to get them.

"It`ll no bother me", states one, "For I only eat CHIPS"!

Hope you are well. You and family and friends stay safe mate.

.... the tattie joke was originally from Chic Murray, tbh. Saw him live a couple of times back in the day. Brilliant comedian was he.

"I think Scotland would survive given that they have all our Water, Agriculture and Energy sources. You know, the resources that keep the UK economy afloat."
This is of course provably nonsense. The last GERS (created by Scottish civil servants and accepted by the Scottish government as most accurate availablel) financial figures for Scotland as to the huge deficit it runs, bailed out by the UK, were awful, and that was BEFORE:
1. The recent huge crash in Oil Prices (again) to sub $27 a barrel (less than 1/4 of what it was in 2014)
2. The recent economic crash.

The figures are so bad that (before he had to run off for texting boys) the last economic secretary was going to make up a whole set of fantasy ones to try and convince those gullible and who can't count the lie that things might actually not be financal hell for Braveheartia.

Walking home eating a fish supper and a half bottle in my hip pocket.
I tripped and fell. As I lay there I could feel something trickling down my leg.
I hope thats blood I thought.

Wheres me popcorn.

Reminds me of the soldier in ww2 who was shot and thought he was done for with the amount of blood until he realised it had hit one of the bottles of French red wine he'd just "liberated" :P

You should have quit when you were ahead aka

I can't abide people saying things on important subjects that are very much not true .

Popcorn is available in the foyer.

No sharing, due to corona, and DEFINITELY no making holes in the bottom of the tub and putting them in your lap . I know your sort!

That was classic Chic Murray.

Guy on twitter.
Said if games go ahead behind closed doors we could watch the away games on our big screens.
True story.

You will not believe this one but I swear it`s true.

A guy in the pub years ago, pointed to a guy at the bar and asked me if it was him or his brother that was killed in the war.
