Growin a decent beard fir UHA is aboot da only decent ting a'm ever hed ta say aboot Tavish Scott.

An afore ony cheeky sausage says I canna grow een.. I can dö a damend guid impression o Isama Bin Laxative, ir whitever he wis caa'd.

 

Njugle,,, I tink it wis da late 60's, meybe 68 or 69, dat da beards started.. My memorie's no sae guid noo..

Bit, du's richt, it's a brawly recent idea.

If calling someone a 'soothmoother' is a crime worthy of being chucked off the committee, then what's the punishment for having rules like.... being a Shetland resident for 5 years before being allowed in a squad!

 

One sounds as racist as the other to me!!!

[moorit]

Interesting point,...but is it not more pertinent that no women are in squads ?

I agree, but I would also maintain that neither are racist.

 

The first statement is also wrong. It was not the use of the term 'soothmoother' but rather the context in which it was used. As is often stated, the term itself is not traditionally considered insulting. It looks like the word will end up evolving into such, but this need not be so.

They should make it a longer time you have to be a shetland resident.
