*********CORRECTION*************
The SCOTTISH season does not end until this coming Saturday. Falkirk
are NOT 1st division champions as yet, there is one game to go and
DUNFERMLINE can still catch them (which I hope they will).
: Scottish 1st; Falkirk
: Scottish 2nd; ?
STRANRAER are the 2nd Division champions.

I saw this result in the LA Times a few days ago, and meant to post
here to find if it were really true.
It may not be the European Cup, but its still a jolly good show!

I am sorry Dick, but it was a piss awful game that no-one but the most rabid
gooner fan would have enjoyed, the arse may have won, but a jolly good show
it certainly wasn't.
Yoicks, dontcha know why they are called boring boring arsenal ?
And anyway it reminded me too much of last years finals where they beat
a different team that could play interesting football, but couldn't beat
a 10 man defence, all playing offside. Can I have a big Aaaah, for this time
last year when the owls consistently lost to they, whose name I wish not
to repeat.

Tiny bit of exaggeration there. Wouldn't be motivated by a hint of
jealousy, would it?
