General Chat

Hello Radio Jem and all our rugby followers.

Aww, silence in the stadium as we all remember the children and teacher who were killed at school in Dunblane. A lighted candle poster is shown and we are in tears.

NOW SCOTLAND

O FLOWER OF SCOTLAND


LOUD SINGING PLEASE

Hiya Jem :-D <3

LA MARSEILLAISE .... FOR FRANCE

Minute's silence for Dunblane's lost Children and Teacher

20 YEARS :-( :-(

WE WILL REMEMBER THEM <3

THE TEAMS ARE LINING UP

THEY WILL BE LEAD OUT BY THEIR CAPTAINS

SCOTLAND BY GREIG LAIDLAW

HERE IS THE SCOTTISH ANTHEM TO SING ALONG TO

O FLOWER OF SCOTLAND

Verse 1:

O flower of Scotland
When will we see your like again
That fought and died for
Your wee bit hill and glen
And stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again

Verse 2:

The hills are bare now
And autumn leaves lie thick and still
O'er land that is lost now
Which those so dearly held
And stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again

Verse 3:

Those days are passed now
And in the past they must remain
But we can still rise now
And be the nation again
That stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again


Only Verses 1 and 3 are sung at games

90 MINUTES TO GO!

SCOTLAND v FRANCE .... Kick Off 3pm

Join us here to cheer on Bonnie Scotland<3

or Les Bleus if you prefer ;-)


ALL WELCOME :-)

Always good to see you on our Rugby Thread, Rollo :-)

Yes, I think we will all be rooting for Scotland today! :-)

Swing low who ever would have thought it? The Auld Alliance may be defeated by Scotland thus giving the Sassenachs 6 Nations victory. A sweet thought but the Blues have won at Murrayfield before.

I hope Scotland win though 'cos le Crunch will be more of a damp biscuit otherwise.
