Laudrup1984 25,100 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Great result, great performance. Just makes the France game all the more frustrating. Still in the hunt though. England game will be huge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article I read today was that he was replacing an injured player for the commonwealth games and he would be performing at the home of his football heroes, it was from 2014 when the games were played at Ibrox.

Blue Nosed Babe 20,357 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Scotland up to 5th in the World Rankings. With England scraping their first 2 games though they should beat Italy today, Scotland could take them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemdog 39,389 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Stuart Hogg definitely favours them. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/rugbyunion/article-2985695/Stuart-Hogg-JK-Rowling-story-wants-conjure-win-Scotland-against-England-Twickenham.html  Keeping up the sporting tradition, Hogg played as a defender in Junior football — although he claims to have had ‘the touch of a baby elephant’ — and is a fair-weather Celtic and Arsenal supporter.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

siddiqi_drinker 14,635 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Just watching the Welsh game and the commentator gives it "no Greg Laidlaw, can Finn Russel kick his balls", childish but had me laughing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandyinroyalblue 16,478 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Pleasantly surprised at how well Scotland have done so far,would be great to beat England at Twickenham but it's a big ask. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlearyEyedBear 4,148 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 It's essentially a playoff between England and Scotland for the championship tomorrow, seeing as Scotland host Italy in the final fixture. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlearyEyedBear 4,148 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 England looking to match New Zealand's 18-match run of test wins, and Scotland are looking to win their first Calcutta Cup on English soil for 34 years. If Scotland were to win today, they would also lift the Triple Crown for the first time since 1990. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.A.I 36,183 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Looking forward to this game starting soon. I've said it before (probably on this very thread) but I've always liked the Scotland rugby team. One of the few things that makes me proud to be Scottish on a national level/sense. Just a totally different aurora about it compared to the taigy/anti-Rangers nature and make-up of the rest of Scottish football, footballing media, Tartan Army, the SFA, SPFL, the other clubs and their fans. I still have to turn the sound down for Flower Of Scotland before the game, though - can't stand that pish - then the sound goes up as the game starts  Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
