👏 Someone way more clever than me has created a spreadsheet to track how many Scotland fans are going to the World Cup (with or without tickets) 🎫 This is especially helpful for those that have bought non SSC tickets - to see how many other Scotland fans in their section. ✍️ Answer a few short questions here forms.gle/UUJPfhQGfZvprk… 🧮 Your answers are auto populated into a map on the spreadsheet (example below) You must fill above form, can't directly edit the spreadsheet. 🔗 Link to view map for each game here #gid=0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… ➡️ Please share to friends

Listen, if you’re tired of the diplomatic fluff and want someone to actually call out the chaos, you need to hear this. Claude Malhuret just went absolutely scorched-earth in the French Senate, and frankly, it’s a masterclass in truth-telling. He doesn't hold back on the "madmen" wrecking the global order—slamming putin for his relentless, bloody ego-trip in Ukraine and dragging Trump’s new "circus" of a cabinet for treating foreign policy like a private piggy bank. Malhuret is basically the only adult left in the room, cutting through the MAGA noise and the Kremlin’s lies with the kind of sharp, witty clarity we desperately need right now. It’s brutal, it’s honest, and it’s a total must-watch. Speech by Claude Malhuret regarding the situation in the Near and Middle East: "Mr. President, Mr. Prime Minister, ladies and gentlemen of the Cabinet, in February 2022, a dangerous madman drunk on grandeur lit a fuse in Ukraine that blew up a powder keg and disrupted the world order. The war was supposed to last a week. It is now entering its fifth year. In February 2026, another dangerous madman lit another fuse in the Near East that once again threatens international balance. Was that war also supposed to last a week? One month later, the whole world is asking: 'What is going to happen?' The simple, short, and precise answer is this: God only knows. A year ago in this very place, I compared the Trump presidency to the court of Nero. I was wrong; it is a 'Court of Miracles.' An anti-vax former heroin addict as Secretary of Health; a climate skeptic as Secretary of Econology; an alcoholic TV host as Secretary of Defense; a former agent of Qatar as Attorney General; a putin groupie as National Security Advisor. A Turkish proverb says: 'When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king; the palace becomes a circus.' This 'fine team' decided to create a competitor to the UN. Since his Peace Council has existed, Trump has launched more military strikes than Biden did during his entire term. Every time an internal scandal resurfaces, bombs explode somewhere in the world as a diversion. Bomb more to gain more. There isn't a country where Trump hasn't taken advantage of the situation to enrich himself, never forgetting his family: a private Boeing gifted by Qatar, investments in all Gulf projects or elsewhere, manipulation of stock market prices benefiting a few insiders. A single one of these conflicts of interest would have triggered an immediate impeachment procedure here, but we are not here—we are in MAGA America: the conduct of public affairs at the service of private interests. After the customs duties, Greenland, the abandonment of Ukraine, the humiliation of allies, the ineffective back-and-forth in Venezuela and so many others, a new senseless adventure begins. Let me be clearly understood: I am the last to complain about the decapitation of the Mullahs' regime and the first to demand freedom for the Iranian people. But what is the strategy to achieve it? And have the collateral damages, including for the Iranians, been measured? The answer is: there is no strategy, and collateral damages are written off as losses. Just as in January, when Trump called on Iranians to take to the streets, only to leave them to be massacred by the Basij. After the pretext of an 'imminent' Iranian atomic bomb—contradicted by the Director of American Intelligence herself—and then the argument for regime change, it is Marco Rubio who finally let the cat out of the bag: we went in because we followed Netanyahu. In other words, we have no objective of our own. Trump ignored the warnings of the few who had the courage to tell him what would obviously happen: the blocking of the Strait of Hormuz, the extension of the war to the entire Near East, and finally the global repercussions. 1/3

Tonight at the Isla Gladstone Stanley park 6pm before the @LFC match 4300 lights 1 for every man that has committed suicide since 2024 #yourlightmatters ❤️

I can’t get my head around that Congreve isn’t with the Wales senior squad, yet Rabbi Matondo is. 9 G/A in 27 games for Dundee and been one of the most entertaining individuals in the Premiership this season. ⚽️🅰️ Baffling.

The owner of the largest Navy in the history of the world would like sailors from other countries to die in a war he started without consulting anyone. Pass, thanks.

After the nonsense of Glasgow last week, the City of Dundee has a chance to show what the rest of Scottish football is really like, with an impeccable minutes silence and then a joint rendition of “one Gordon Wallace” from BOTH sides of the street! 🧡🖤💙🤍❤️

Chest. Turn. Shot. Glory. 💙🏆

WHAT ON EARTH?

@meljomur We are not going to America .We are going to World Cup which happens to be in …….

I fully agree with this. Personally even if you’re a die hard Scotland fan you must realise the best support you can give is to boycott the World Cup.

Barnsley Woman in the UK is going viral for her rendition of Eminem and Rihanna doing karaoke in her front garden.

🚨That's What it Means to Have Balls 👏👏👏 🚨The speech of Belgian deputy Mark Botenga at the European Parliament session went viral in the European social media segment.

This is the best thing you’ll watch today 🤣

@OUFCOfficial What a fantastic tribute to a young lady taken far too young .💔💔xx
