That's a nice thing to call someone.

I'll stop interrupting.

I'm not even a proper Tim.

I just want to wind broony up because I love him too.

Not even a proper what!?

Are we talking Scottish or Man or just You at the moment?

He's not a fully fledged supporter of CelticFootballClub

Short for Timothy

I'm never going to get it, I don't think.

I'm doing blank female face right now.

Sorry, I was being deliberately obtuse.
I honestly don't know. At a guess it's probably something to do with Timothy being a traditionally Irish name. Celtic were formed as a team of Irish Roman Catholic immigrants to Glasgow.

Sorry it's not interesting

It's an Irish name?

Ohhh.

Not that I would have got it had I known that.

More a Roman Catholic one, they name their kids after saints. It could be something else, but I think that's likely where it came from.

i thought

it was to do with a former bishop or summat,
gotta love Chris Brookmyre's take on it all in the glossary of tales etched in blood and hard back pencil

haha, that is an awesome book

All fun and games until someone loses an eye is also good, but a little bit silly.

I have read a lot

of Brookmyre including the one you mention above.
He's not bad considering his education. He has a fine mind. He is limited by his upbringing I feel. His characters all appear to be stereotypical Scots and I've been trying to get away from those cunts for 30 years.

haha, yes some of his characters are a bit predictable

but the characters in the a tale of blood etched in etc. aren't stereotypical scots, that's what paisley's like.

yeh

they're the only two i've got
my brother's got most of the others so i've read most of them

would like to see an AFAG sequel, think it'd be a good replacement for parlabane

I don't find "hun" offensive in any way. I grew up thinking that "huns" were celtic... I find the terminology used for celtic fans much more offensive and am ashamed when I hear gers using words like "fenian".

All the religious nonsense around scottish football is bizarre, since most of the fans that prolong it are too busy collecting giros, beating their kid's mothers, and drinking bucky to go to church.

see?

I'm not very good at it.

(

I just don't get wound up by celtic fans

it's rangers fans that piss me off most of the time, especially my dad when he's in a hateful bigot mood.

I'm not greatly inclined towards any english teams, but i'd like to point out that i've been watching you lot quite a bit recently and i think i fucking love them.
Edit: utd, i mean.
