Scottish Mick

@Captain_Janubi @boriquagato Set of Isles? It is on the island of Great Britain There is a completely separate island of Ireland, part of which is annexed by the English There are then hundreds of smaller islands, some Scottish islands, and others, like Isle of Man and Channel Islands that are not

@Mickdeee @boriquagato Because Scotland is in Europe, Mick. It isn’t in Asia, is it? Which set of Isles is Scotland in? Scots are British, just as the English, Welsh, and Cornish are. There is a discussion around Ireland being in Britain or not. Scotland is. Scots are British.

you've all seen the feel-good videos of forigners coming to the US for world cup and not wanting to leave, but have you seen the videos of americans wanting the foreigners to stay? boston wants the scots back.

@ScotlandNT @StaceyDevlinx Surely Tierney on the right is miles better than Patterson again

🔢 Your Scotland team 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SCOBRA | #FIFAWorldCup

@NotesfromNorth @Rog973521 @bealolufc Nope

@Rog973521 @bealolufc Scots were loved in Boston. Scots are British.

📍 Boston. I’d say it’s been a pleasure but it’s actually been a bit underwhelming compared to Dallas. Back to NYC now, we keep going 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@Captain_Janubi @boriquagato In the Ryder Cup they compete as Europe Means nothing

@Mickdeee @boriquagato Which team do Scottish Olympians compete for in the Olympics, Mick? Which army do Scots serve in? Which type of passport do Scots hold?

@jaykelly26 @SneaksMcCoy The Ulster-Scots were always a different breed. Those guys thankfully refuse to support Scotland, so you don’t have to meet them.

@SneaksMcCoy I'm working on the wild assumption that if they're coming from Scotland they never left to occupy the north of Ireland

I think its funny that the English are surprised Boston can hold a 250 year old grudge. Coming here and shit talking our new Scottish best friends definitely isn't helping their cause either...

@GuntherEagleman Just to be clear, even the most right wing Scots and Norwegians are politically to the left of the democrats. Although the left over here is a bit different. It’s more about power to the workers over the ownership class, than it is about identity politics. Socialist not liberal

🚨 LEFTISTS SLASHING AMERICA’S SYMBOLS WHILE THE WORLD FALLS IN LOVE WITH US!  While Dem donors and radicals are literally taking a KNIFE to the Trump-refurbished Reflecting Pool, diving in, ripping liners, slashing 20-ft sections like it’s their full-time job, the rest of the world is having the time of their lives in America during the World Cup. Scots sprinting through Miami, Argentinians losing their minds in Dallas, Europeans getting their hair fixed and self-esteem boosted by friendly American girls in the club. “In Germany we don’t even make eye contact!” They came for soccer… stayed for the AC, free refills, barbecue, brisket, biscuits & gravy, and the NICEST people on Earth.  One Brit said you think you’re coming for the game but you’re staying for everything else. Media spent YEARS calling us a racist, violent, greedy dump. Foreign fans landed and discovered the truth: abundance, kindness, and real hospitality. They don’t want to leave! Meanwhile, the left can’t stop vandalizing our monuments and symbols. A 1922 treasure, restored beautifully, now getting destroyed by the same clowns who hate what America represents. This is the contrast, folks. They tear down. The world shows up and says THANK YOU. We love this country. Time to protect it!

@Captain_Janubi @boriquagato Britain is a geographical land mass not a country Calling Scottish “Brits” is like calling Mexicans “American”. Technically it is correct, but no one would do it English are happy to use Brits just as USA folk are happy to use American as the most populous countries in the area

@boriquagato The best bits are: 1) He doesn’t know that Scots are British, and 2) He is explaining his hate for the English in poor English when English is his native language. It’s like when Indians bitch about the British Empire in broken English.

@ardematic @boriquagato Britain is a geographical land mass not a country Calling Scottish “Brits” is like calling Mexicans “American”. Technically it is correct, but no one would do it English are happy to use Brits just as USA folk are happy to use American as the most populous countries in the area

@boriquagato Scotts are Brittish (legally but they may not think so). They are not English

@pamelasoz @BeardedBrownMa1 @DschlopesIsBack Britain is a geographical land mass not a country Calling Scottish “Brits” is like calling Mexicans “American”. Technically it is correct, but no one would do it English are happy to use Brits just as USA folk are happy to use American as the most populous countries in the area

@BeardedBrownMa1 @DschlopesIsBack You're right! I was thinking of Brits as England. My mistake. :)

My Top-3 country breakdown of the World Cup tourists visiting America 🇺🇸 right now: 1) Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 - Amazing! Great, fun, passionate people that I want to have beers with. 2) Germany 🇩🇪 - Have only seen good things so far. Freddy gets all the attention but others are great as well. 3) Tie between Netherlands 🇳🇱 and Japan 🇯🇵 - Representing well and having an absolute blast exploring our great country.

@VeritasAequltas @AnnieGlen20 The formula is to account for the fact that Scotland is geographically not that much smaller than England, and it takes more resources to look after a wider spread population However it doesn’t address the resources we bring in. We would love to scrap it and keep our own revenues

@AnnieGlen20 Are you sure?

If ever a country needed to be internationally recognised as an independent nation. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙

@GothamChess Same in the Scotland game I think there has been a directive to refs to use VAR extremely sparingly Which I don’t hate, even if it cost us

Been watching the entire World Cup. I'm confused. Why was no VAR used twice on the England/Ghana match. Goalie tackle and the Ghana near breakaway late 70s minute. Help?

@OneMorePoint1 @FBAwayDays 100% I think that would be a better choice than Jerusalem, but anything is better than an anthem for a larger union that pledges allegiance to the brother of that guy. Even for a monarchist it’s weird to sing that against Wales or NI surely?

@Mickdeee @FBAwayDays Land of Hope & Glory is used at Commonwealth Games for England I don't get why it doesn't get used for England football

It has to be said, England fans are nowhere near as loud as the Scotland fans were during the anthems, in the same stadium… 🫣😬

We go to the World Cup to compete. Scotland go to the World Cup to be liked.

@PuddefootS12589 @FBAwayDays That’s why you are losing your culture. I might hate Britain but I genuinely love England, and hate that you have been brainwashed into killing an awesome English culture at the feet of British imperialism.

@Mickdeee @FBAwayDays Think you'll find most people in England don't give a fuck Enjoy your sing song

@waxwildflowers @krispy1982 @RearAdBsBlog Again where does that “happily participated” come from? Which election did Scots vote for UK entry, or colonisation in the colonial period. I don’t care if a few noblemen were bribed. Those slavers happily participated, but Scotland has resisted it from day one

@Mickdeee @krispy1982 @RearAdBsBlog Again, that's just not what colonization is. Also, "the whip?" Scotland happily participated in the British Empire's *actual* colonization efforts. (Ireland, the Caribbean, India, Africa, etc. etc. etc.)

Boston just had a torrid, fortnight love affair with Scotland. We’ve had a 221-foot granite monument for over 230 years that commemorates a group of farmers and blacksmiths breaking England’s nose and turning the tide en route to gaining our independence. And 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 thought they were gonna come here and talk shit about 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿? Read the room, wanker.

@ManpreetPTFC_V5 Exclusively That’s why there is a population crisis in Sao Paolo since the Red Road flats came down

@paddypower 🤣 me laughing 😡 me realising that is is a veiled dig at Scotland Well played 🤣🤣

It's an unwritten rule that England must have one awful 0-0 in the group stages every major tournament, before going on to not win it again.

@waxwildflowers @krispy1982 @RearAdBsBlog An inequitable union cooked up by toffs centuries ago is just colonisation with a side of hi-tea. I don’t blame you here, I genuinely think that it is hard for those at the right end of the whip to understand what is happening.

@Mickdeee @krispy1982 @RearAdBsBlog You are continually shifting the goalposts, the question isn't about inequality in the Union, it's about whether Scotland was colonized. It wasn't! And to fully take the bait, those rules in the EU are stupid and are getting at least partially rolled back on some Council votes.

@TheSkyStrikers It was maybe 5 years too early but I would have loved if Robert Duvall was one of his favourite actors Because we all know who Robert Duvall’s favourite footballer was.

As always, when we share a new Shoot!, we share the player profile! This week! Jimmy Johnstone of Celtic! He likes CCR..... (From Shoot! - 09/09/1972) #shoot #shootmagazine #Celtic #CelticFC
