Means popes that aren't very tall.

Surely vertically challenged Popes is more PC/woke right on?

[PeterWithesShin]

Short Popes is my new band.

[Percy McCarthy]

You probably don't read so much about them as they don't win a couple of trophies every year. Still, given that you're an expert on Celtic's origins, I'm quite surprised you don't know they were formed directly because of Hibs.

Now you know, you can follow them and stop being a glory-hunter. No need to thank me.

It’s a deal, as soon as they draw the wrath of UEFA because of all the Palestinian flags and rebel songs. No need to win a hundred Mickey Mouse cups.

Here you go, mate.

I support a peoples’ right to self-determination, and have sympathy with oppressed minorities. Further discussion on those topics would probably be better suited to off-topic.

That doesn't ring true, if you really stood with minorities oppressed by their more powerful neighbours and who have suffered centuries of misfortune, you'd be a Blues fan.

Fair play.

It’s hardly this though:

[Villa Lew]

I've been going on about this for years and years and I intend to go on about it for years and years, until this farce ends, it is now 17 years since on the last day of the season that there has not been a meeting between any of the Sky 6 clubs, the last one was Liverpool v Spurs in May 2009. I've read newspaper articles that there is an arrangement in place that this doesn't happen.

The only way to put an end to this farce is to spread the word, because the large majority of football fans are not aware of this. H & Vers I'm asking you to tell all your mates about it. Many thanks

[Sexual Ealing]

However, if you intend for your mates to continue being your mates, perhaps don’t go on about it too much.

[cdbearsfan]

I don't really care, sorry Lew. It is often best to play the teams that tend to challenge last game of the season as there is a chance there will be nothing riding on it or they may be resting players ahead of a European final.

Haha! It is a mystery though, why Villa has so many more fans in Birmingham and the surrounding areas, even amongst relatively-recently arrived Scots. I wonder what it could be?

[cdbearsfan]

Can't speak for others, but in my case it was because my dad chose to support Villa, when we were in the Second Division and they were in the First. I think maybe because we had Bruce Rioch.

Our forefathers were glory hunters ,obvs

[PeterWithesShin]

Living here probably plays a part. Unlike all those that support random Scottish clubs and also live here.

Ok CD but it could have been a situation, where today we are fighting Liverpool for the last CL place and Arsenal and Man City are fighting for the PL title, so while we are playing Man City, Liverpool would never be facing Arsenal.

[Olneythelonely]

Could we not have just accumulated more points against the shit teams earlier in the season?

It’s odd if there is an agreement but it’s definitely not the MOST Sky 6 bias thing that goes on.
