    Yes it is I go to Larkhall frequently and know many people there. Yes Larkhall is predominately Protestant so you get numpties but not to far away there is Carfin which is predominately Catholic and guess what they have the same type of numpties only they have attached themselves to an opposing view. It is crazy I know many good people from both areas and some of the statements on here are laughable.



    I am sure you will be missed :rolleyes:. You do know that most arrests on an old firm day turn out to be from areas other than Glasgow funnily enough even from over here. People need to realise there are good and bad people everywhere

    I won't be missed; Glasgow will go on as always without me, I'm sure. I just gave an honest impression of my experiences there over two days. And yes, I know that there are good and bad everywhere...

    West Donegal is like East Antrim: Hilly, miserable weather, and very close ties to Scotland (particularly Glasgow). Only difference really is what side of the fence they're standing on.

    East Donegal has more in common with Scotland than the West after all most of their ancestors came from there! Besides having the best farming land in Ireland that is:)

    Think you might find that an awful lot of Scots can trace their roots back to good old West Donegal

    I can trace mine back to Ayrshire in the early 18th century on my father's side,. On my mothers side all the way from Gweedore in the 19th:)

    Is this real? I mean, could anyone, or a town, really be that pathetic?! It's hilarious :P

    Have you been to Birmingham since 1971? If you think Birmingham's depressing, your town must be fúcking amazing.


    On topic, I know dozens of Glaswegians, I was drinking with them in Cavan two weeks ago and will be with them this weekend. Scots are the nicest, funniest and friendliest people around. But there's still a terribly sectarian mindset. I was up in Glasgow for a fleadh about 2 years ago, my dad went out into the city centre and was caught behind an Orange March.

    The only part of Scotland I've been to is Edinburgh and I was absolutely bowled over by how lovely the people were. Way nicer than here - and people are nice here.
    Sadly there is some appalling sectarian crap in Glasgow and apparently elsewhere in Scotland, but no way should a minority of knuckle-draggers be used to taint Scottish society in general.

    Its funny but most of the bigots I know and I know plenty from both sides are what I would call 90 Minute Bigots they shout and scream obscenities and then forget about it. Its pathetic really

    I have still yet to see a funnier sight than 4 nuns getting into a 3 door car.

    Your right but that sectarian crap is also in Edinburgh you just don't see it as much. The vast majority of people in Scotland are friendly reliable people
