    Still don't see a Yes vote, it'll be close though.

    Price of a Yes vote has crashed on Betfair. From around 7.5 (13/2) a couple of weeks ago, to 4.5 (7/2) now.

    Cheerio Jock. Thanks for all the whiskey.

    I hope it's close, just for the entertainment. Exit polls showing 70% 'No' won't be a good excuse to stay up and get drunk.

    Thank **** it isn't a home game - every **** going to Celtic Park straight after work would knock about 1% of the Yes vote.

    I'm praying my work doesn't send me to somewhere in England that day - leave too early to vote in the morn and would struggle to get back even in time to see the game even if I'm only going to Newcastle.

    Saw McPhoreskin talking **** about pensions at a Better Together rally.

    Under a Yes vote, Scotland will reach the "oh **** - we really are skint now" point quicker than England or rUK, especially when Salmond gives all the pensioners £100 a week more than they old ****s get just now.

    As I often say, "be careful what you wish for".

    The land of oil and porridge is not what you thought it'd be.

    Don't know...

    See the £'s sliding now that Yes is nearly in the lead. (Well it was this morning)

    I'm thinking of voting Yes just to see the beel from the Onion Berz and their Bru'ish jingoism.

    I'm also thinking along the same lines for the No vote and ST and his tree shagging lunatics get carted off to the asylum.

    All in all, I see benefits in both votes, I guess thinking about my work, a Yes will mean another 2 years of instability and after the past 5 years, I really can't be ****ed with that.

    You only want GB split so you can get it up the 'Huns' in NI.

    You're a bitter bald man, Mike, the worst type of baldy.

    Getting it up the Huns in NI would be a stupendous side effect of getting a government which can attract business to the ****ehole I came from. I've spent the last 10 years farting about Islands watching how they manage to attract the companies who will pay me money - yet the only private sector companies we get in Belfast is call centres competing on low wages with India.

    I was back in Belfast a few weeks back getting my family home ready to let out. When I visited my Granny my cousins were telling me all the tricks of the DHSS (I already knew 'em) for me to let the house, and when I visited my Da he was telling me about the Government grants available for getting gas heating installed (and of course his pal who could do it even cheaper than the grants, off the books). The hottest political topic of conversation was whether Sinn Fein could continue to block the Tory benefit cuts - and 'isn't it a disgrace London are giving us less money'.

    So aye, imagine wanting to change a subservient state in which 65% of the economy is based on sucking off London's tit?

    Mike, you know I totally agree with you on a lot of issues, the ambitious Barrie looks at the bigger picture and what might be in a free market Scottish economy... But you can see what the Scotch electorate is like - just by reading this thread.

    You've got;

    ST - "why does anyone even care about the economy". He's part of the RIC (Radical Indy Campaign) who wants to turn the country into 1920's USSR, assassinate anyone who earns more than £20k a year.
    MD-2020 - Stoned out his tits and thinks that the state should take care of everything because he's a lazy ****.
    Bib - With his clothes and political views, he wouldn't look out of place in Cuba.
    Aldo - Purple faced simpleton, another wealth hater.
    Venom - Quite clever, don't really know why he's voting Yes apart from he's a Tim.
    Eric Cartman - Thinks that the state taxes people to spend on people <laugh>
    Dev - Hates the queen, thinks that by voting Yes, this will end the queen (was quick to accept the queens coin when shooting Keerins dad in Belfast)

    You know that Scotland will not take the 'correct' route to flourish. The population are thick as **** and the working class are subsidy junkies. Scotland will take 30 years to recover from Indy if they pursue the same disastrous course that Labour took and Salmond wants to re-embark on and "reverse the Tory cuts"... (the same cuts that are required due slash the deficit)

    ****s
