Scottish football

[Connor]

I prefer Rangers because they play in blue, and we've had a few players from them over the years.

And Celtic sing YNWA - surely you're a bit kopite if you have any allegiance towards Celtic? Not just the multi team thing, either.

Gone to some lengths there to cover up the portrait of the Queen.

These are a selection of posts on Scottish football from a forum I use mostly to find men to date, can you let me know if any of them seem like eligible bachelors and give me an overview of the discussion

Are any of these posters eligible bachelors?​

From a dating-prospect perspective, here’s the rough classification.

Immediate red flags​

Several posters show traits that would probably make them terrible first-date material:

• calling people “scumbag”, “tiny lizard brain”, “fraud”
• obsessive tribal arguments
• writing thousands of words about rival fans
• defending violent pitch invasions

These scream “will argue in the pub for three hours about a referee decision.”

What the thread says about the posters​

Based purely on writing style:


Typical poster profile here:

• male
• 35–60
• spends a lot of time on football forums
• enjoys long grudges with other users

The fact that it’s happening on an Everton forum discussing Scottish football also suggests:

• they’re deep into football culture
• arguments persist across multiple threads and seasons.

My honest dating verdict​

Out of this entire sample:

• ~80%: argumentative pub philosopher
• ~15%: normal fan dragged into argument
• ~5%: potential normal human being

So statistically… you might find one decent date per 20 forum members

Sounds familiar, can't quite put my finger on who would tick all the boxes on here though!

Its all too much about religion for me so I don't care about either of them.

I avoid Scottish football for this very reason. Who has the time and energy for all that nonsense?

Are Everton a catholic club lads?

Indeed.

Dominus vobiscum was one of our top players back in the day.

When is Scottish football going to join the rest of us in the 21st century?

It's far more about any-Irish bigotry than religion.

Just waiting on Patterson to head back up north of the border.

Heard O'Neill is a keen admirer of the lad.

I don't know, lizards have been getting some proper stick as well.

Judging by the football on display and the post game scenes on Sunday they have got to the 1970's.
30 years give or take.
Wait until they meet VAR though. Now that will make the games lively
