    There's Union Jacks everywhere here, doesn't make me vote Unionist.

    Bookies are very rarely wrong.

    That's my guess too.

    Trev, you only feel that way as the Yes campaign has been louder and more in everyone's faces. Have no fear, it'll be a No.

    So I see.

    There's a **** with a kilt on standing outside a polling station in Budhill <laugh>

    Yes on one side of the gate and No on the other side.

    What's to be worried about? I'm now more worried about the consequences of a No vote. The Devo Max, promised by the party leaders, will not happen. The southern Nigels have already said that Devo Max needs ratified by parliament and that they will not vote for it, and even if they do, it still needs to go through the Lords.

    Not really been reading this thread too much, but why do some English posters on here want us to vote No so badly?

    Not wanting to start an argument just genuinely interested. Can't help but feel if I was English I'd want rid of them.

    I'm pretty sure the 'Yes' campaign will win the big vote in Scotland today.

    Yes expected to win

    Dunno, maybe some of them are taking it personally like being dumped. I'm not too bothered either way, kind of hoping for a NO just to see what form of meltdown it induces in ST.

    I'm going to vote for whoever wins.

    I think the Yes will just come up short but I predict that within 10 years, the UK will have fully devolved regions.

    For me it's because I genuinely am proud of what this island has achieved together. There is so much shared history of things we wouldn't have managed on our own. Lots of generations of my family have served in the armed forces so I've always had a degree of pride in being British. Which involves you ****s north of the border.

    I genuinely believe we are all better off sticking together. It's not a case of you lot not managing on your own. It's the destruction of hundreds of years of hard work and shared bloodshed.

    An to do it on the whims lies and smoke screen of that **** salmond.

    Well I've been in Edinburgh for the last 4 days and most people here think it will be a no vote, off to Ayr now so might be different there.

    True - but I'd be nervous about Betfair already paying out on No. These things can backfire spectacularly. Do you rmemeber the year paddy power paid out on United and Arsenal then won 10 games on the spin? <laugh>
