The Earl of Hathaway Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Shat it fae a bunch of zombies at the start of 28 Weeks Later.

Hot Shot Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 In other words, he now feels international enough that he doesn't have to hide which side of the 'glasgow divide' he prefers incase he alienates support from the other side. A scottish 'celebrity' trait that really gets on my tittys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A scottish 'celebrity' trait that really gets on my tittys. I don't see why he should, there are plenty of Scottish "Luvvies" and "Celebs" who go out of their way to profess their support of the Jungle Jims.

I don't see why he should either, I don't see why any of them should,which is why it gets on my tittys, but for all the 'luvvies' you describe there are twice as many and more who 'support' Morton/St Mirren/Aberdeen/Motherwell or whichever club is applicable to where they were brought up.

I can think of Lorraine Kelly who supports Dundee United despite being brought up in East Kilbride, however, I am not too aware of many others outwith the Old Firm! I do think that supporting the Jags is definitely the safe option for high profile West of Scotland celebs but eventually their true colours will be outed.

McKennan Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Every time I read about a celebrity Jags fan I ask myself if they've ever been seen at Firhill. Nine times out of 10 the answer is no. Carlyle, Coltrane, Connelly, that balloon Currie from Del Amitri ... anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digger Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Bobby Carlyle was at a game at Firhill a few years ago with his wife He was at the Dundee Utd cup tie at Firhill with his kids. Used to go to our games with his father when he was a youngster. Think the Daily Ranger have been a bit economical with the truth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having been brought up and gone to school only a short distance from Firhill i would imagine Bobby Carlyle probably has been at Firhill on a few of occasions, in saying that from what little i remember of him at school and shortly after leaving to my knowledge he didnt have a great interest in football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Twice eh? Haud me back. That's just where you're wrong. Carlyle's a regular at Firhill. I don't think for a moment I'm especially observant, rather I tend to turn up at Firhill a wee bit earlier than most, but I've see Robert on numerous occasions. Off the top of my head I saw him at the Berwick game dressed in drag selling 50/50 tickets. Was I the only one that spotted two Pee Tees at the Falkirk league cup tie? I know for certain for the Ayr game the man of many faces was in the director's box when just the two faces would've sufficed. Just who do you think was that aggressive wee polisman who cleared the Aitken Suite at 2.30 by cracking yon Magner's bottle on the counter?

Allan Heron Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 I think Carlyle got the reputation as being a Thistle man on the basis of a sympathetic comments he made around the time of the Save The Jags campaign. I think there was a huge collective assumption made about where his affections lay based on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggernaut Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 (edited) Can somebody remind me again what Myth No. 776 was? I think it was something about the previous Chairman and commitment to a 4-sided stadium, but I might be wrong.

I remember he was interviewed after Carla's Song came out (in which he played a Celtic supporting bus driver), he was asked what team he supported and replied Thistle.
