Gizmo Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Butcher will be a good motivator for the players. God, this must be one of the most petty, insular countries despite so many enlightened, friendly and encompassing people living here - I'm sad to say their is a healthy minority of bigots and xenophobes nad they shame us all.

cylawny Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 They aint going back if Butcher joins Scotland. Are they racist? I don't know who the feck is phoning the clowns up but the T.A. are in no way racist. Give it a bit of thought. In recent years half the team has been made up of guys with English accents, half of whom had never been to Scotland. Did you hear any abuse ? Racist my arse !

Deevers Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Most of the callers will be sellick fans who are already paranoid because of their firm belief that Burley is a card carrying Rangers supporter. The appointment of Butcher would just add to the paranoia. You can look forward to this sort of keek on a regular basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Jambo Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Personally I don't have an issue with Butcher as assistant manager. But then I didn't have a problem with Darren Jackson joining Hearts or with Stephen Pressley going to Celtic. Some fans won't care when someone that once captained their biggest rivals joins their team. Others will never take them to heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunxjambo Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 The full version of the National Anthem is: 1. God save our gracious Queen, Long live our noble Queen, God save the Queen! Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us; God save the Queen! 2. O Lord our God arise, Scatter her enemies And make them fall; Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On Thee our hopes we fix, God save us all! 3. Thy choicest gifts in store On her be pleased to pour; Long may she reign; May she defend our laws, And ever give us cause To sing with heart and voice, God save the Queen! 4. Not in this land alone, But be God's mercies known, From shore to shore! Lord make the nations see, That men should brothers be, And form one family, The wide world over. 5. From every latent foe, From the assassins blow, God save the Queen! O'er her thine arm extend, For Britain's sake defend, Our mother, prince, and friend, God save the Queen! 6. Lord grant that Marshal Wade May by thy mighty aid Victory bring. May he sedition hush, And like a torrent rush, Rebellious Scots to crush. God save the Queen! last verse is a bit iffy imho.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 What does it matter. English, Scottish, Irish even the French - at the end of the day we're all part of the human race. I have'nt got any time for the Germans though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The massive majority of the T.A. don't live within 100 miles of the central (west coast) broadcasting area of that pesh station. No doubt it was some Weeg feckwit wind up merchants.

MacDonald Jardine Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 What proportion of Scots, Irish and Welsh know the words? It's the British national anthem in name only. there's a hell of a lot of folk can quote chapter and verse about how anti Scottish the never used 3rd verse is. That would suggest great familiarity with the words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stirlo Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Totally embarrassing that some people have a problem with Butcher becoming number 2 - what planet do these people live on? Butcher's always come across as a decent guy and a good coach - and if the Scotland players play with the same commitment and passion that he showed as a player I'll have no complaints.

Cobblers Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I would have thought that Terry Butcher knows more about Scottish Football the George Burley to be honest.

Das Root Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 God Save The Queen is a sh*te anthem. It's amateurish compared to the other nations in Europe. Queen is nowt but a nice old lady too. Ruling monarch? OAP more like. Butcher would be a quality appointment, knows the Scottish game, good manager (though stalled at present), great player and captain of his country so knows all about international play. Anybody saying different is just "Celtic minded" and an utter tw@t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsychocAndy Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Is it the Terry Butcher that played for Ipswich, managed Motherwell, captained England and was born in Singapore.

I.J Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 God Bless Scotland. England can appoint a Scottish assistant in 1996, but 12 years later we can try the opposite and yet still have racist AND sectarian overtones. Ya beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

269miles Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Yeah , why appoint a guy who has played at the highest level in England , led his country in a world cup tourney , been a decent coach/manager at Motherwell. It's plain crazy - if he's English. Personally , I was more insulted by Barry The Crab's comments about Burley. WTF does he know about Burley ?
