How do you feel about Major League Soccer?

[Spherical Planet]

I've been following Celtic for 18 years now but those early days and trying to figure out Scottish writing. .

I've been living for almost 50 (in Scotland) and still trying to figure it out, BNAS.

I'm an American (we all love to claim heritage and I won't lie that I subscribe to Irish Americanism.) However, I found Celtic through a different way. I fell in love with the play style of a man named Larsson and had to know which team he played for. Plus, I grew up hating the New York Rangers so it fit right in my wheelhouse.

How cool are you, Broony?

Can't work up much enthusiasm for MLS, Celtic don't play there.

I will truly be cool in a year or so when I finally get to Paradise. Been to the family stomping grounds in the West of Ireland, next is sunny Glasgow. Something to dream about as I save. Watching Still Game and Burniston to train the ear.

My family stomping ground was County Mayo, where did you visit?

My family stomping ground was County Mayo, where did you visit?[/QUOTE This was a few years ago but we started in Dublin and took the Ring up into Galway then Mayo. My great grandfather was born in Mayo somewhere between Ballyglass and Ballinrobe. His uncle(great uncle?) was the Arch Bishop of Tuam and he paid for them to come to the states due to trouble with the local law enforcement. The area is chock full of Mcevillys and Stantons/Stauntons.

Wonder if they chanted pie mucher when Boyd played for them ?

No, but fun fact: Slippy G played for the L.A. Galaxy briefly, I noticed while looking up something else . . . .

Yeah, you have to write after (or before) the QUOTE bracket. Takes a little getting used to.

Believe it or not, BNAS, but for as much as both programmes there are an introduction to the Glaswegian accent, they still won't prepare you for the assault to the senses that is hearing it in real time and in person.

I live in the North-East of Scotland and still can't make head nor tail of it after a lifetime of practice?

I'm glad that you found your way to this site though, like Larry there, it's great to establish contact with Celtic fans throughout the world and share their different experiences.
