Scotland Dies Laughing
21-11-07
TRIBUTES are being paid to Scotland this morning after the entire country laughed itself to death.



Most would have been dead within minutes
The alarm was first raised at around 10pm last night as thousands of phone calls and text messages went unanswered.

Small groups of volunteers from Berwick-Upon-Tweed and Carlisle ventured north just after midnight only to find houses full of dead people gathered around still blaring television sets.

By dawn, as RAF helicopters flew over deserted city streets, it was clear that the whole country had suffered a catastrophic abdominal rupture.

Wayne Hayes, a special constable from Northumberland, said: "We went into one house in Dunbar and found three men sitting on the sofa with huge smiles on their faces, still holding cans of 70 shilling. They seemed to be at peace."

He added: "In a house near Edinburgh we found a man face down on the living room floor with his trousers and pants round his knees.

"It seems he may have been showing his bare buttocks to the television when he keeled over."

Roy Hobbs, a civil engineer from Northampton, said: "I got a call from my friend Ian in Stirling at about 9.50pm.

"He was already laughing when I answered the phone, but after about 25 minutes of the most vigorous and uncontrollable hilarity, everything suddenly went very quiet."

Moving tributes are already being placed along the Scotland-England border with many mourners opting to leave a simple bag of chips or a deep fried bunch of flowers.

And England 'out of Europe' + the man in charge resigns - kinda ironic when one reflects back to one of the huge, historical political events of last Thursday when an English electorate played a big part in forcing the Brexit fiasco!!

And England are out,justice for Scotland,take that Tyldsley you prick

Joe hart LOL

[Fredstersafool]

He is honking why Fraser Forster wasn't the keeper is beyond me,Raheem Sterling is horrific and to take a player who's palyed 141minutes of football is incredible,I think Scotland should make Hodgson or new patron saint.

What a sad way to exit the tournament.

Joe Hart, deary me he hasn't had that much to do this tournament but when he has had something to do he's looked poor. Last nights winner and the free kick he conceded to Gareth Bale will haunt the lad. Time to give Fraser Forster a chance that he deserves.

Kyle Walker, for me one of the stand out players for England this tournament. Looked fairly solid most of the time and more often than not one of England's most stacking players..I can say the same for Danny Rose.

Smalling and Cahill, we're hitting rocky territory here. Neither of them look great but not many other options to throw into the centre of defence. Left the back door wide open for the winner last night.

Midfield, Dier has done OK...just about and his goal v Russia gets him over the line on that judgement
Rooney, despite the whole should he or shouldn't he go talk before hand I think he justified his place in the team and again was one of our better players. Last night was his worst of the tournament but against Russia he was excellent and should never have been subbed and against Slovakia he was decent.

The rest of the midfield....pah! Sterling...no confidence, Henderson and Wilshire..waste of space.

Forwards, Harry Kane MIA...failed to turn up, given set pieces and was awful with delivery.
Sturridge, not given a chance until Wales but showed class and composure in those 45mins.
Vardy, fed on scraps but like Harry he went missing when needed.
Rashford, one of the few positives but not given enough time last night to show he could change the game, should've been on after 65mins

Roy- after defeat last night he had no where else to go but resign, started the group ok despite a draw with Russia. Everyone could see we had shot ourselves in the foot that night by not hanging on but we created plenty overall. Against Wales pretty much the same but for a soft goal in the first half but at least Roy went for it with his half time subs. Slovakia again no disaster because we were pretty much through whatever the result.
Iceland...shocker, why didn't he throw caution to the wind earlier...and where do we go now?
Southgate...no thanks
Howe...no thanks
Pardew...good god...no thanks.


Overall I've had a great time out there watching the 3 England group games, I've met some good people, I've supped some good beer and I thought the atmosphere with every game got better and better.
Roll on the World Cup Qualifiers and with a bit of luck away trips to Scotland,Malta and Slovakia at least

Iceland...shocker, why didn't he throw caution to the wind earlier...and where do we go now?

That's a very simple answer HOME.

I want Eddie Jones. He could do this with one hand tied behind his back. We have the talent but they are just not motivated correctly!
