    I found the Scottish fans to be overrated :cool: Wasn't that the year we got the FIFA fair play award?

    no it was the year that Scotlands Fans were voted "World's Friendliest Fans" by FIFA during the 98 World Cup :D:D:D .... but thanks for reminding me ;)

    outwith is a saying in Scotland... just like 'yer man' is in Ireland... seriously this is true... we say outwith instead of outside... weird huh? :o
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Nah that's not weird, it's just silly! 'worlds friendliest fans'??? in 98? Shite, that's cos the Irish weren't there cos there mustn't have been much competition... although I did enjoy the Croatian fans and the Jamaican fans were good craic.
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    But no, you are indeed right - I've only seen Ireland matches in Dublin... although I was in Paris for the world cup in 98 and I found the Scottish fans to be overrated :cool: Wasn't that the year we got the FIFA fair play award?


    actually you won it in 1997 for some unknown reason :confused:

    what the fuck happened in 1997... :confused:

    its not a feckin trophy that you can hold and pass onto others... its a bit of paper that is a one off award... why 1997 though!!!

    must have been for qualifiers or something

    anyway winning it once isnt too bad though... quite a bit of catching to do though ;)

    No we're quietly happy in the knowledge that we're the best fans in the world. WE don't need a title to tell us that - apparently the Scots do though :rolleyes: . Maybe they just give it to yas so that you don't start fighting :D

    Yeh, there were qualifiers in 97 :rolleyes:

    I think Charltons reign ended then against Belgium or was that early 98.

    Last week me and other people were labelled as "ignorant" because we defined "hooligans" as "violent English football supporters". Although the definition can be wrong, here's one recent example
