360 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Let's face it, these games will be an embarrassment when compared to the resounding success that was the England 2012 Olympics. Link to comment

The Boofon Posted July 4, 2014 Author Share Posted July 4, 2014 Hopefully Scotland win every medal. Independence would then be a formality. Link to comment
tightbreeks Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 this isn't good, noro virus. everybody slagging off dehli for being dodgy, trust Glasgow to show that we're world leaders in squalor. ebola! come on down. I'm sure the hydro had the same problems. I wouldn't be surprised that it's the same catering company that supplied the hysro with dodgy food and dodgy staff. no washing hands, bogeys on food, pooh on food etc. Link to comment
seann coirthe Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Got a sponsors package to the opening ceremony .. would i fuck be going if it wasn't for the free bar and boutique hotel stay afterwards. Link to comment
Bobby Connor Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Massive enthusiasm for this on the Hat haha! The games in Manchester created a bit of a buzz at the time. I could hear the fireworks going off from my back garden and they were blasting out Mondays tunes which was cool. Manchester is cool, Glasgow isn't. Link to comment

tup Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 This is just an excuse to do up weegieland at taxpayers i.e. my expense. The actual event is a pile of shite that I wouldna open the curtains to watch if it was happening in my back gairden. Just like the Olympics, absolute rubbish. Link to comment
Bluto10 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 What I dinna get is the high jumpers and throwers. What's your job?I throw stuff for a living. How do you train for the high jump?? How do you fill an 8 hour training g session? Morons. Link to comment
Guest Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 My daughter is in the opening ceremony, along with a heap of other human beings and forty million Scotty dogs. Actual name - Aberdeenshire Terriers. I wasn't allowed to tell you that. Fuck them. Sue me. I've never been a dog man. Fucked a load but never paid vet bills for one. Until this bitch we have now, locked up in kennels for over a week at present. I love this black bitch, newly one year old. Link to comment
Stoney Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 disappointed not to have been called up to the bowls team yet Link to comment

Folk who have lived in Linlithgow for generations in their family are called black bitches. Something to do with a dog feeding a prisoner on an island near Linlithgow Palace. Fuck all to do with the Commonwealth games. Just thought I'd show off my outstanding trivia knowledge. Happy birthday to your dog. 7 years old in human years. What a crock of shite that formula is. 1 dog year is 7 human years. No it isn't. Namibia will get a bronze in the Javelin. Link to comment
Bobby Connor Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Is Linlithgow known as being posh? My pal built a massive house there about 10 years back. Overlooks something or other. I didn't think the town was anything special but fair play to him if there is kudos attached to it. 1 Link to comment
dj_bollocks Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I'd chuckle if this was just a big Orange March they were organising at Parkhead tonight... Link to comment
