Ag no can’t even take advantage of Wales being down to 13 🙁
@ Blue Bird:
Good afternoon Blue Bird.
Scotland slot a penalty
Wales 16 / 3
31@ Blue Bird:
Hello
Wales now back to 14 men… only 1 left in the bin
Scotts look poor, can not see them making my Bru happy today
Wales back to 15 men… Scotland only managed to score 3 points whilst Wales were players down… not good enough
Lamont is the only player really doing well for us. Come on Parks!
Penalty Scotland and Parks lines it up for posts…. 52m on the angle
Well short as Parks slips in the act of kicking.
Lemoenetyd
Bad miss, what a poor half, going to take something special to come back from this. Just far too many mistakes.
Wat drink ons?

49@ Blue Bird:
…attended 2 funerals this week… one on Thursday, one today…. hate funerals….
Penalty Wales… and Hook goes for posts again
Hook misses just to the right
Scotland looking a bit more fired up at the moment
@ grootblousmile:
People always say ‘I hate funerals’ they also say ‘I hate going to the dentist’…
Have you ever met anyone who said ‘Ohhhh, I love a good funeral’ or ‘Mmmmm, must be time for a root canal treatment’???? 🙂
No TV for me now , i better get another decoder
55@ Blue Bird:
I’d rather get a root canal done…
Today’s funeral was specifically bad… fella committed suicide… wife (my stepsister) and her daughter devastated.
Penalty Scotland… Parks goes for goal
