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.

Most of the people I know today have the same allegiance to their country as their primary school.
To be fair, I just saw Rooney’s goal … what a strike. Not sure he has ever struck a ball more sweetly

Thanks , mate.
Individuals pick their side and feel obligated to run with the pack.
The huns love the Queen.
Therefore I must hate the Queen.
OR , the huns determine my attitude .
That will never happen.
About anything.

I was actually talking about the way she, and Remember she is just an individual after all, she Respected what had happened in the Past when in Dublin.
Judging so much Now is well…..
She, despite being so old, knows whats happening.

BT – I’d Never ever Question your Faith – How could I – It is illogical. ;))
HH Dude
What’s the plan?
I’ll reveal some of it to you.
What’s the plan? To not let you consciously advance
With mindless radio and television programs
Doping you up with new grand’s of illegal contraband
Once again activated the hand of the son of man
No regards for life no chance for yours
Lies and more tax dollars financing wars
While you partying ignoring the news they sign laws
Deceptively forming methods to keep you behind bars
Who rules the planet the people who’s over them
The president ain’t number one he got powers controlling him
Long before 9/11 nationwide fraud
America had been the master of the inside job
Anytime there was a tragedy the face was in the picture (yeah)
When the Rothschild family was breaking bread with Hitler
And all they ever did was enslave you and pillage you
Stop honoring and country that’s responsible for killing you
[Chorus: Sniper]h
Sound the alarm
The government is try’na do us harm
Don’t worry bout the weather it’s a comet in the storm
Pay attention to the mission cause they wolves is out to get you
Either do as they say or they’ll take you out the picture
[K-Rino:]
What’s the plan? To profit off the poor man’s habits
Pharmaceutical corps made a nation of drug addicts
They don’t wanna cure they want money while you a dope fiend
I see the devil every time I look at Osteen
It’s hell in the ghetto but it’s better in the ‘burbs
Country under control of the Federal Reserve
Wicked regime formed back in 1913
Our international bankers rule presidents and kings
The truth covered up by the media water moccasins
Crush Bill O’Reilly, Hannity and Pat Robertson
All the evil alphabets, they can go to hell
F.B.I., C.I.A. and ADL
D.E.A. the court system let’s implode
The judge probably wearing some panties under his robe (yeah)
They know that rule is over and that God’s gonna get ’em
But the plan is to try to take the whole world with ’em
[Chorus x2]
[Verse 3:]
These snakes are pressing Mexicans with border patrol
Try’na keep you off their own land – the land that they stole
Hypocrites, satanic people out to harm ya
Took Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California
In human life, they mercilessly experimented
The earthquake in Haiti, hell H.A.R.P. might of did it
They blamed terrorism for every building that’s blown
Most attacks on this country were carried out by their own
Every sick move left the poor affected by the cause (uh-huh)
In the past they blew up their own ships to start wars
Too put guns and dope in the hood, they decided it
They’ll lock you up for it when they the ones who provided it
Now they map out strategies average people ain’t fathoming
Practices in murder tactics whenever we have a gathering
Never had respect or knew what character was for
They just lived up to the label, America the whore!

On the other hand , the Spaniards stole it from the Aztecs , Olmecs and Toltecs.
What goes around.
In fact , the Mexicans sold the land.
Just as the French sold the Louisiana Purchase.
An afterthought :
And the Russians sold Alaska.

There’s evil forces,human evil not demons,at work and while they plot we play.That’s the message in the song.
In 2000 there were 7 countries whose central banks weren’t run by the Rothchilds:
Iraq,Afghanistan,Libya,Sudan,Iran,Cuba and North Korea.Today it’s only North Korea.
Think about it.

Sorry , mate.
Nipped out for lunch and a coldie.
In you want to judge nations , I would you suggest that , as a good rule of thumb , you look at the countries which people try to emigrate to .
And from which countries they leave.
Sorry , mate.
Can`t comment on the Rothschilds and their global banking influences.
However , you would be aware that it sounds a bit like ” the eternal Jew ” narrative and I know that is not what you are saying , but I would always be cautious about endorsing unless I had definite evidence.
Banking is not the biggest problem.
Global population shifts are.

There’s reams and reams of info out there and sometimes the difficulty is separating the wheat from the chaff.A lot of it is utter nonsense though.Anywho,I’ll discuss it in more depth another time.
It’s almost 3am here and i’m struggling to keep awake but trying to watch the test,at least until Warner makes a century (hopefully).
Aussies looking good but a few quick wickets and it’s all change,I love cricket for that.
Always good to cyber chat mhate.
Take it easy and love to you and yours.

Thank you so much for your good wishes.
I love the chat as well. Almost inevitably interesting and stimulating.
There has been too much cricket in the last few years.imho.
However , I m starting to take an interest again.
Particularly in Test cricket.
ernie and Robert are the only posters that I feel are Scooby Doo Noo, in TUNED.

DD vs Petec
Honourable Fighting.
Those Poles are hardy. Did you read Every Text BT?
I’m up for a Charity Boxing match. The Petec v the DD.
I think G-Thang would be a good fighter but he is olde noo.

Despite the pelters, I’m happy to be a Celtic supporter who happens to believe in a Monarchy and Conservative Politics. I’m also a Nationalist and hope that Scotland gains independence so that at last, Scots can focus on policies for a change instead of the Independence question, which has led to SNP dominance and being dictated to by the Sturgeon Witch, who has the most awful anti-sport, anti-family and anti-growth policies around.
