i may be forced to eat my words

A seven year old English boy was at the centre of a courtroom drama today when he challenged a high court ruling over who should have custody of him.

The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge awarded custody to his aunt. The boy confirmed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and refused to live there.

When the judge suggested that he live with his grandparents the boy cried out that they beat him more than anyone. The judge dramatically allowed the boy to choose who should have custody of him.

Custody was yesterday granted to the English Rugby team, as the boy firmly believes that they are not capable of beating anyone!

i think most people who visit this site regularly know that i am scottish, i don\'t kow how you missed that brih.

this was meant to be a light hearted prod at the england team, but as usual there is alway the ******** jingoist who has to take things too far.

i don\'t give a donald duck about the scotland football team, we are pish, theres a limit to our resources only having a population of 5 million and beating worldclass teams like holland 1 out of 2 games can\'t be bad.

BriH take note…Scottish people will tell you that it is very insulting to be referred to as a ‘Jock’. This derogatory term is more patronising and nastily offensive to a Scot than being called an A-hole. And such behaviour would have some offended people screaming RACIST. It’s an unwelcome term of reference in the same way as the N-word is to black people; the P-word is to Pakistani people, and the C-word is to Chinese people.

Blissful ignorance is dangerous, and hopefully you are now aware of what has upset the thread instigator.

On your little prick-pin regarding the horrible football result: as I said to a Dutch friend of mine today, “Yes, you did manage to whip a team of Scottish babies yesterday; this was sad but not unexpected. But remember, while you can beat us at playing football, growing tulips and perhaps at building windmills, we can always beat you at FIGHTING!!!”

Another demeaned ‘Jock’ with less tact than I might offer big BriH this line…“You might be able to slaughter us at eating pies, and do us in the wobbly chins competition, however, we haggis-hurlers will invariably roll you in a rumble.\"

I of course, would never dream of saying such a thing which could be misconstrued. But I might go as far as sneezing out the words…Aaaa-Atkins Diet-chooo!

Remember digging is fine my friend, as long as you are prepared to wear that shovel. And a bit of ‘bite’ is always healthy in threads – just leave some cakes for the rest of us!

Yours in calorific-ally challenged affront and ‘Jock-u-lary’ - DF

i\'m not going to get involved in a slanging match with anyone, but , i think i would take more offence about being called a jingoist than an a.hole.

BTW

since 1966 scotland have won ZERO international competitions......

since 1966 england have won....ZERO international competitions.....

doesn\'t matter whether you are out in the qualifiers or get gubbed in the final, you still win nothing
