The story is allegedly true.
The scene is a Glasgow court and a witness (a ned) is being questioned by a
rather plummy mouthed Advocate Depute (AD)
AD 'You say you went to your friend's house that night.
Why did you go there?"
WITNESS "Tae get a tap."
AD "Is your friend a plumber?"
WITNESS "Naw man."
AD "Are you a plumber?"
WITNESS "Naw man."
The witness is a bit bewildered by this line of questioning and the AD realises
it, but notices that the court police officer is rubbing his fingers of one hand
together in the universal gesture of money.
Daylight apparently dawns on the AD and he changes his line of questioning
accordingly.
AD "So you went to the house to borrow money?"
WITNESS "Naw man."
AD "Ah. You went to the house to lend money?"
WITNESS "Naw man."
In exasperation the AD says, "You told the court you went
to your friend's house for a tap. What kind of a tap was it?"
WITNESS "A Sellic tap man."
Once during a game
that was not going Glennys way Nathan Aird was knocked unconscious in a clash
of heads as two players went up for a high cross. He was duly stretchered off
and Billy Hassan got to work with the magic sponge. The manager had already used
his available substitutes and was desperate to get Nathan back into the game.
'How is he?' he asked the manager.
'He's come round,' was the reply. 'But he says he doesn't know who he is.'
'Right,' said the manager, 'Tell him he's Kaka and get him back on the park.'

Heavy rain
A match between two non-League teams took place last winter in the North of England. It had been raining heavily all week and the ground resembled a swamp.
However, the referee ruled that play was possible and tossed the coin to determine ends.
The visiting captain won the toss and, after a moment's thought, said, 'OK - we'll take the shallow end!'
A great footballer was tragically killed and
arriving at heaven's gates, he came face-to-face with the angel on duty.
"Is there any reason why you shouldn't be allowed to enter the kingdom of
heaven?" asked the angel.
"Well," said the footballer, "there was one time when I cheated in a major
international football game."
"I see," said the angel, "tell me about it."
"Well," said the footballer, "I was playing for Ireland against France and I
used my hand to push the ball past a French defender. The referee didn't see it
and I went on to score."
"And what was the final score?" asked the angel.
"That was the only goal," said the footballer, "We won one-nil."
"Well, that's not too serious. I think we can let you in," said the angel.
"Oh terrific!" exclaimed the footballer, "It's been on my mind for years. Thanks
a lot, St: Peter."
"That's OK," said the angel, ushering the footballer in, "and by the way, it's
St. .Peter's day off today,
I'm St. Patrick."

A Celtic fan is walking home from a
match in his Celtic kit. He fancies a drink, walks into a bar and found himself
surrounded by blue and white. He's walked into a Rangers' bar. A deadly silence
falls over the pub. Then the barman clears his throat and says, "In here, we
give Celtic fans a toll of the dice. "If you roll one to five, we kill you."The
Celtic fan replies,"What happens if I roll a six?"
"You get to roll again.
