Moggie,
Sorry to bite, and be a pedant at the same time.
The original London Irish / Welsh / Scottish RFCs were amateur expat clubs,
so....
to really develop that well placed sense of injustice, you'd need to go north or west and find yourself banned from setting up an 'Edinburgh English' or 'Cardiff English' rugby club...
Getting back in my box right now

I don't normally write on this forum, but I would imagine that the words, sick as a, and, parrot with an ingrowing beak, pertain to you after watching the chariot rumble all over the frogs this morning.
Non regards, Den.

Echo 5..............
Tut,Tut. Shame on you for upsetting our two English neighbours.
As a fellow Scot I recognise the humorous intent of your post to moggie and obviously he has received it in good spirit.
And then we have the response from the two stereotype English rugby fans denachtenmai and X-Quork.The type that the whole world loves to hate.The type that gives all Englishmen a bad name.The type with too much inbred arrogance.
I just hope you two are still gloating next Saturday.
E5.....You should know better than to ever rely on the French for anything !!

Sorry - I don't get the Willie Wallace bit. Too subtle for me perhaps.

You must get a nice warm feeling,trying to be so morally superior, is it cos i is English?. We won, what Echo5 said (whether tongue in cheek or not) was therefore incorrect, which made him a target, this is a normal forces reaction. How you can get from there to my and X-Quork's "arrogance" is beyond me, can I have a personality check at your surgery? Do you make house calls?
Regards Den
P.S. nice own goal remarking on the French as you did

3 greens - William Wallace was the character that the film "Braveheart" was based upon.
Think about the actor who played the lead role and you will get the intent of the post by ISITD.

Talking of things Rugby Union, what will Mike Catt put on his ethnicity monitoring form.
Mind you, and this one is for Echo 5, it would make interesting reading if the Scotland team had to fill one in

FEBA,
I wouldn't even think of arguing about this one. Mind you I think we are down to about three Southern Hemisphere players now and Scotland are still as close to crap as you can get. Even the new guy Danielli - Scots/Italian - English accent !! And that isn't a criticism before the easily affronted among you start throwing your toys around. I'm afraid all these Scottish grannies have a lot to answer for.

Murrayfield 2nd April 2000 - Scotland 19 Engerland 13
Twickers 6th March 2004 - Engerland 13 Ireland 19
Is this the start of the long slippery slope downwards ?
Just goes to show that without Wilkinson yer Engerland is just pretty average.

Ray,
Probably not. As I recall Scotland were middle of the table last year. They probably beat Italy !!
Just checked. They did beat Italy 33-25 and Wales 30-22.
Mind you that was when they had a few old sweats playing. No excuses though - that was a disaster in Rome yesterday.

Disaster? Yes, possibly.
But it IS only a game, and England's defeat by Ireland was thoroughly deserved and had to come sometime. Hopefully now that they have been knocked down, they can come up fighting and start to build themselves up again.

I too have been stung by the equal opportunities fiasco. Came back from somewhere very hot and not at all friendly to have a letter from Harry Staish asking why I hadn't returned my EO paperwork.
Sent it to my boss with a post it note on the front - "I hate everybody, equally. Does that make me EO qualified?" Didn't hear anymore about it after that.
What a total bunch of arse! I'm glad that the adminers have got nothing else better to do with their time than waste ours with this tosh.
