Scottish football in decline

[Mr_AWOL]

Who said talk radio was finished...

Presenter: We have Jim on the line who wants to discuss the Faroe Islands /
Scotland game.
>>
Jim: Thanks...er yeah. Just want to say it's an absolute disgrace. I mean,
we're playing probably the weakest side in world football and we can't do
better than a draw.
> >
Presenter: It was a poor result.
>>

Jim: Poor result! Poor result! It's absolutely scandalous. The manager has
lost the plot completely, he's got to go. I know we've never set the world
alight over the years on the international stage but I can't remember
things being this bad. It's the end for us. The absolute end. I can't see
us ever recovering from a setback like this. We're a complete laughing
stock.

> >
Presenter: Look Jim. I know it seems bad now but there is still a long way
to go. I can't see you qualifying for Euro 2004 but hopefully things will
improve.
> >
Jim: I never expected for a moment we would qualify. I don't mind that so
much. We're not good enough. But listen, to not qualify is one thing, but
to fail to beat a team like Scotland is a different matter. It's a bitter
blow for everyone here on the Islands.

Faroe Islanders regularly beat whales

in fact they usually get slaughtered

Radio 5 live had a classic during the world cup,stan collymore was part of the team and one caller set the station up a classic.He did the right thing in being very nice and pleasant during the call so they relaxed on the time slip which allows them to cut you off before your swear words get out.He carrys on , "Stan , you should be picked for the world cup squad" , Stan is typically flattered and say stuff to the fact that he ain't played for ages, the caller the comes out with the line , "well your the only man i know that knows anything about beating Swede's" , ouch
