I pretty much despise half the England team because they're repellent thugs, but by crikey I will be roaring drunk and declaring my love for each and every one tomorrow night.
South African guy: "Wait, seriously, I'm getting carded? Come on!
Ref (smiling, half-laughing): "Ah, don't worry about it, buddy. We card EVERYBODY at the World Cup. Soon I will card a fan in the nosebleed section."
Some guy stops blowing his horn.
Ref runs up the stairs, hands him a red card, and kicks him out.
For anyone not in the know, the Scots always support whoever England is playing against. It could be Pol Pot's Choice 11 Great Monsters From History and the Tartan Army would be bellowing them on against the Auld Enemy. It's just the way it is and no one really minds this side of the border.
Hell, we think it's kind of cute. Besides, it gives the Scots something to do while the World Cup is on because it's for damn sure they won't be playing themselves.

Fun fact about the South African goalie, Itumeleng Khune, he was originally a defenseman, but he had some chest problems and Kaizer Chiefs busted him down to ball boy, which is where the youth coach found him diving for stray shots.

I have a new soccer blog The Minnow Tank. Reading it psychically kicks Sepp Blatter in the bean bag.
Wow, I'd always thought the rule was receiving the ball behind the last defender. Didn't know it was still offsides if the last two defenders aren't the goalie. Good call.
