StephanieBarr Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 WHAT a po-faced lot the members of the Tartan Army are. And what a Tartan Army puppet the Scottish Football Association chief executive, Stewart Regan appears to be. The rebel rousers and Jacobites who form the ranks of the feathered fools only have to get their piper to give it a wee bit blaw and the high heid yins at the SFA are dancing a jig to their tune. This has been well illustrated in the last week over the racist row which followed Scotland getting a football lesson from Brazil. The latest Brazil super star to delight us with his brilliance, Neymar, took exception to the constant booing he got from the boozed up Tartan Army, and accused the Scots of being racist. Let us be clear about this. For neither the muddle headed mugs in the Tartan Army, or Regan, appear to be. Neymar made no mention of the banana which was thrown onto the pitch. That was a separate issue. However, in the wake of a police probe uncovering the banana thrower as a German tourist, the Tartan Army and the SFA went into overdrive. After having first denied racism, they now pounced on the news that it was a German who chucked the banana, and demanded an apology from the Brazilian FA. Who swatted them with an equally quick brush off. So, let's return to the booing of Neymar, and the Tartan Army's justifaction claims. It was, they claimed, because the young player is a cheat, who dived and feigned injury. And the high minded, indeed moral minded, members of the Tartan Army abhor cheats. DON'T THEY? Mmmmm! Mibbes aye, and mibbes naw. After all, it is not long since the Tartan Army produced their most cringe inducing display yet. Can you recall it? Surely nobody has forgotten the way these muddle headed muppets not only welcomed the greatest footballing cheat of them all to our wee country, but actually feted him. Diego Maradona committed a footballing felony when he punched the ball into the opposition net, got away with it, and then claimed the goal was scored by the HAND OF GOD! So, why then did the so called moral men and woman, the rabble rousers and Jacobites in the ranks of the Tartan Army, not think his cheating was abhorent? Could it have something to do with the opposition who suffered at the cheating Argentine player's hand? Would they have showered the wee fat man with such adulation had it not been England who were cheated by Maradona? I think not! No, the Tartan Army define themselves by the fact that they are not English, and by their hatred of the English. Look at those riduculous tee shirts many of them wear awarding a Scotland player of the year award to a succession of players, none of whom have played for Scotland. They are a succession of Johnny Foriegners who have scored against England, with a smattering of Englishmen, such as Gareth Southgate, who have missed vital penalties for England. That tell you all you need to know about the Tartan Army. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nips Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 One of the show on Talksport have a section entitled "what a waste of ink" - if this went to print it would be a top contender to be mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mainstand Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Stephanie you are incorrect he did mention the banana: Brazil beat Scotland 2-0 in their friendly at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon but the victory was overshadowed by accusations of racism from the Tartan Army. Brazil striker Neymar (above), who scored both the goals in the regulation win, claimed a banana was thrown at him at one point during the match. "I was running down the touchline in the second half and saw the banana but I didn't see where it came from. The fans were jeering me a lot. This atmosphere of racism is totally sad," Neymar said later in an interview with a Brazilian TV station.

deej Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Is there a quote where he directly accuses the TA of racism? All i've seen is "the atmosphere of racism" "someone threw a banana" etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
