Her boyfriend is a Celtic fan, they're up in Glasgow for the long weekend, so he decided to take her to watch his other true love - at Paradise, home of TGFITW. So, did she enjoy herself? Here's a few of her text messages sent during the game:

 

"Now in stadium. Feeling slightly sorry for opponents, as they are so clearly the underdog. Have only got one twentieth of stadium with fans. But Calum got angry when I said I might shout for them. He said I would get kicked out".

 

"I don't like this. But I think Calum is taking this rather personal".

 

"I didn't see the goal properly. But I am not really enjoying this. I say that it is a shame the police need to be present. And he says I don't get it. And I say I do, but I don't get why people would need to start fights".

 

"Next time I will go with you to see Norwich and we can eat in Delia's restaurant".

I must say I'm proud of her. Julia's not a bona fide football fan, but she does at least understand the game, and watches most matches at major tournaments - and it took her barely minutes to see what we all know and love about the place, not to mention the iniquitous joke that is Scottish football. I told her she should try being an away fan at Celtic - but if you bear in mind they were only playing Falkirk, and most fans were probably half asleep, it says it all about what a welcoming place it clearly is. Congratulations, Celtic FC: another satisfied customer...

 

PS. Oh, by the way: Celtic's first goal came from a probable handball in the buildup. Shockeroonie!

Only trying to wind you up! :P

 

Mate, it was only after your post that I re-read it and saw what it looked like! It does look like I'm trying to play them off against each other, which I'm honestly not: I was just amused by her reports, basically.

 

Crumbs. I feel like I'm in a Woody Allen film. Freud, where are you? I need you, old friend! :biggrin:

Shaun, you must be one of these "new" men. Or a gaylord. ;)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mods - me and Shaun are bestest cyber chums. I am not anti-gay and if he wants to indulge in that sort of stuff I have no problem and wish him all the best. I am sure Shaun will take it* in the way it's intended.

I am indeed a 'new' man, you bestest cyber chum of mine, you. That is to say that I treat women with respect, am in touch with my sensitive side, and am generally quite a caring chap. But needless to say, the boaby is not for me. :)

OK. Any time you want to visit cyber Edinburgh, you're more than welcome to stay at my cyber house.
