    I refuse to be rodded, in a football (soccer) thread, by a burd.

    Honest I'm not. I just don't get why a small team getting into the finals means that Scottish Football is a joke.

    If a shite team, like Gretna, can get into the final, it must mean that the other teams aren't really up to much.
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    Gretna are in the Scottish Second Division (The third level of Scottish football). They are at best a part time team. Feck the main striker is actually a Doctor (medical) the rest of the team will also have proper day jobs.

    They are now in the final of our premier cup competition, which puts how good the rest of the teams must be into perspective.

    EDIT - manker said it better. Read his explanation.

    But why are they considered shite if they got into the final. Surely they must have won lots of stuff to get there.

    Depends.

    If they win it.

    If they play Hearts in the Final and Hearts get second place (in SPL) then they do.

    I don't know how it works out if Hibs reach the final and beat them. I think that's a no.

    Shite in a global sense.

    Scotlands top teams can't beat a team from their own third level, therefore Scotland's top teams can't be that good. Therefore Scottish football is a joke.

    Think of it as buying a handbag from poundstretchers.

    I feel an urge to post a pic of a Yorkie bar.
