Surely a bit of common sense is required when it comes to bantering/slagging off & not jumping down each others throats


Absolutely agree, - but I didn't think that the words in the song came under the heading of banter. To me it seemed like a personal dig at a player, who after all never chose himself to play in a Scotland jersey, and who has done his best for his adopted country when he was selected - even if that best wasn't always good enough.

More precious here than the weegie board!!! A similar tongue in cheek post was put on there to incite some friendly pre game banter and didnt get as much reaction as this!

I have no problem with the chant as long as it is just ment as banter, the problem being if picked up by the kick booiing part of the crowd it could turn into out and out abuse not banter.

I completely disagree that a drink driving ban is a private matter. I can think of little less private than killing someone while DUI so for me the more in the open and negatives highlighted to others someone who has taken the risk of that happening the better imo.

Clearly one person's banter is another person's abuse.

Anyway I see it's been given the approval of the site moderator, so go ahead kids, do your worst! :P

What II said was,
"Not that I look too kindly on drink driving, but I would say that such a conviction is a private/personal matter and nothing to do with the game of Rugby."

Drink Driving Conviction has nothing to do with how a person plays or takes part in his/her sport. In that respect it is a private matter it should not be aired by opposing or own supporters.

Unlike "bloodgate" or the use of performance enhancing drugs where that involves the sport.

I thought of another song we can sing at the Weegie game :

Red and yellow and pink and green,
Orange and purple and blue,
We can sing our team strip,
Sing our team strip,
Sing our strip,
Can you?

The Weege can then reply

Blue and blue and blue and blue .....................
