The only footie i am interested in at the moment is Blackburn not going down and Accy Stanley able to keep in the league. Not a footie fan really, but like to see local teams doing well.

Me too

I read on Yahoo they were going to charge folk to watch on the Big screens somewhere in London. Also they were fencing off somewhere where the sailing was held and charging folk to watch. And the same where the biking was being held.

They have to recoup their outlay you know, we're in financial difficulties

Tell her to grab what she can as they will be worth a fortune after.

There are Olympic events taking place in the Central Belt: the football at Hampden Park...

I have never in my life been to a football match....and you have NO idea how awkward it is to get to Hampden Park!

I can imagine Slinki!

 

The closest I ever lived to a football ground was as a child/teenager/ young adult in Clydebank. We lived about 30 minutes walk from Kilbowie Park - when Clydebank still had a football team.

 

It never really impinged on us. At that time Clydebank didn't really have a high profile town centre, so if you were going to 'the big shops' (M&S, Lewis' etc,) you'd be going to Glasgow anyway. So you wouldn't really be bothered by any football crowds if Clydebank was playing at home.

 

By the time Clydebank made it to the Premier League (equivalent of) I was married and living in Lanarkshire.
