RIP RFC. Your titles mean as much as Lance Armstrong's. 😈

MayJasper Are you by any chance a green and white supporter? 7y
arlenefinnigan @MayJasper I would say they're my favourite Scottish team, yes 😉💚🍀 7y
MayJasper I was in Glasgow a few weeks ago and met up with a great crowd of green and white supporters (sadly it was at a funeral). It was a great cultural experience for a non-football loving Sassenach like myself. 7y

arlenefinnigan @MayJasper aw. Funerals are never a happy occasion but I do like the Catholic tradition of making it a family celebration. 7y
Cinfhen I got all the references this time...😉💕#liveandlearn 7y
arlenefinnigan @Cinfhen hehehehe. Glad to enlighten 😉 7y
DeborahSmall @MayJasper Arlene loves this book for these types of prompts 😂 although brought up in Glasgow with a superprod Rangers fan as a dad, my sister is Celtic crazy and I prefer them too. Although my support started out just to irritate my dad! 💚hail hail 7y
arlenefinnigan @DeborahSmall did you go to the game at Linfield? 😉 7y
DeborahSmall @arlenefinnigan I didn't, we actually were offered tickets. Stephens mum is still in hospice and as he does so much charity work for them and as Cliftonville head coach they wanted someone who could relate, so he was asked to go on a visit with Brendan Rodgers, he's the Hospice 'ambassador' but we're changing cars right now so couldn't make it. My sister was so jealous 😂 7y

Cinfhen I'm a clueless American 🤷‍♀️can u explain the #zombie reference?!? Team name??? 8y
arlenefinnigan @Cinfhen of course. People call Rangers 'the zombies' because the club died in 2012. This book is about how they went bust after fiddling their taxes and spending way beyond their means for years. The reincarnated team (or 'the tribute act') are currently 3rd in the Scottish Premier League, having been humiliated 5-1 twice by their glorious neighbours (and Champions) Celtic. 8y
Cinfhen Thanks for the "football" lesson ??? 8y

DeborahSmall @arlenefinnigan lmao 😂 apart from me and 1 sister the rest of my family are diehard Rangers fans. My dad especially. We grew up beside Hampden Park and the atmosphere was always fantastic at old firm games 8y

The best bit about my now husband moving in was unpacking his books and sorting them into "I'm reading this" and "why are we together?".
