It was old, and it was fecking shite

Oh what a joy! I'll be cut off in my house while idiots do this. Happy for them to march but would be better if they didn't stop all deliveries to me. Could march around the pitch at Ibrox.

I'm reasonably sure that, whilst interesting, that wasn't the link you intended to post with that comment?

I wonder what the effect would be if a large group of people coincidentally 'misinterpreted' an 'Orange March' to be something akin to la Tomatina and started joining in by throwing fruit at the participants?

Most of the runners don't have the breath to spare for singing.
