I don’t know if Scotland have ever worn a poppy but I suspect the SFA have been landed in this issue against their will by association with the FA in England. Fifa have indicated it is a political symbol and prohibited its attachment to football shirts. The FA and SFA plan to disregard that ruling and wear the poppy anyway.
Deliberately defying the rules is laced with Moral Hazard for the SFA, which will not be lost on the decision makers at Hampden. For years to come this act will be cited as evidence of double standards. It provides evidence for those who object to its very recent inclusion in football ceremony on the basis that politics should have no place in football.
Of course, declining to follow the FA’s lead would be a political act in itself, but one which fell within the rules.
I’m firmly of the belief that politics (as opposed to values) should have no place in football. I know this is a utopian aspiration, as sport and politics are inextricably linked, but only because trumpets continually insist on making them so.

Lumber and sexual are two words that should never be used in portmanteau. In fact, even used in the same sentence could lead to a slap

One and only time I went to Rough Trade it was rammed and I got fed up jostling to look at the merchandise.
Needless to say I tutted loudly several times…

Why are we having this issue so soon? Is it that difficult to keep within the very few rules of the blog?
I’m not clear on the rules? Let ye who stand without sin.
But I’ll keep an eye on other posts and make sure everyone else has the same as the rest of us, with respect, your brown shirts do have they’r favourites, and I’ll point them out if and when I see them, I won’t be grassing, I’ll just be asking if that’s appropriate as others are doing, just fighting for my own corner, no one else, it should be very interesting.

PHILBHOY has had previous with me, and I’m sure he’s big and ugly enough to defend himself, so there’s no need to run to his defence IMO, with respect and begging your pardon, I don’t think you where mentioned in any of the posts, his or mine, so it’s really got nothing to do with you?
Lovely wee item on the 12 30 news re the syllabus of Advanced A Level Government and Politics..Much teaching time devoted to the primacy of Parliamentary Sovereignty.Nice wee dig re Mrs May missing those classes.
That was followed by a I’m resigning Tory MP unhappy with the ongoing shambles and opining that while He was in favour of Brexit ,He was also in favour of staying in the single market.Where did they find these people ?
Don’t know if anybody can help, I have just installed KODI and am looking for info on any admins that might be able to get Celtic games???
