A friend moved to Glasgow many years ago - in fact, Arneb and I, with our respective future spouses, met up with him there - but that’s another story. He told me that he was asked what team he supported. So being a good South London lad, he replied, “Crystal Palace”. The guy looked at him and thought, “stupid Englishman”. So he tried again. “Aye but what team do you support?” Martin now worked out what he actually meant, but had no time for it. So as his then girlfriend was from Airdrie, he said, “Hamilton Athletic”. Now the guy got really frustrated. “BUT WHAT TEAM DO YOU SUPPORT???” I got off more lightly when, also in Glasgow, I said, “I know who the Oranges are and I know who the Greens are, but who the hell are the Blues?” Apologies to Heid!
