VTA



GET A LIFE!!!
   
It's time this board was closed.

Like a busy carpark it should be a case of one in one out.  The new arrival can then take time cautiously finding a small space for his Seat Marbella instead of bulldozing straight in like he owns a Merc.

This will help us to stop all the witterings of fresh ideas, which are all clearly kak cos what does a new member know.   And if we are upfront about that it might put some new people off when they realise its not just a pissathon have a laugh open to everyone club, we might just stop all the gripes from whingers with no tickets.  We might just stop these bloody gap year wastrels coming all together.

This is ultimately a serious board for people who know whats what to indulge themselves.  Its not for your johnny come latelys to get on their high horses at the first fence and try to attack the soul of the TA.

Lets do it now, 3500 members is enough, bin the last 20 and lets start again.  All the important stuff is getting dilluted with these wasters.  

Plus, I'm fed up with the cheap travel stuff.  It does us down.  What is wrong with scheduled flights.  I know some people struggle on a budget and all that but why dont you just treat yourself to some Stella for a change and watch it on your Samsung.  You will enjoy your home comforts and not have to clog up these pages with your whining about foreign lavatories.  Away and piss in yer own sink.

Plus, its only the poor folk who whine on Zanussi style about loyalty at Hampden schemes when everyone knows the true TA don't even live in Scotland and would not give a rats piss about a day out in Sauchiehall and a march to Hamdump for the Faroes game.  Just cos thats the only games they go to with the cheap "whole family for a fiver" deal and a MacDs on the way home.  If they aint bright enough to have left Scotland by now (ala Rod the King Stewart) they are clearly well unintelligent and could contribute nothing abroad anyway except bleating on about no Buckfast and how they thought Lithuania was a science subject.

And these same people do nothing to our image abroad with their cheap weekender kilts which are usually all crinkled and jammed up their backsides after their easyjet flight and those horrible slimy seats.  Thats not what our public, our audience wants.   Wee cheapskate sporrans made from what looks like pubic hair or even worse a saltire as a Beckhamesque sarong!!!

The worlds getting smaller, the TAs getting bigger.  Lets get things in proportion.

Except Rod never left Scotland because he never started out here in the first place...

p.s. I take it this thread was sarcastic?

Real TA?

Is that an offshoot from the Provisional TA which broke away from the Official TA some years ago.

Mr BW obviously you know nothing about VTA, how old he is or how long he has been following Scotland. I would imagine he has been following Scotland since birth and travelling away for a great number of years. I met him in the 1990's which is years before I met you.

You seem to like being in judgement, perhaps all you need is a sense of humour and you will be as wonderful as you think you are.

Now more focussed having recovered from the jetlag following my expensive holiday.........................

Right, The TAs gone too big, thats obvious.  Its time some of the deadwood was rooted out at source.  Let's be honest here, some don't know how to dress, drink or display their country on the world stage.  If you give them a map they can only point out Ayr or Alicante.  Worse still the TA has become riddled with foreigners...all over the place....even Engerlish.  Ive even seen gay TA with tight fitting Gucci tops and leather kilts and some guys in turbans.  Is that gonna reflect Willie Wallace mental on the battlefield??  What are we gonna fight them with now....................cockrings and tikka masala.  The inclusivity bit of the deal is for white Scottish guys of heritage.................not bloody lasses hanging on to their man's arm for dear life incase he fancies a bit of Estonian beauty instead of her pasty black pudding thighed charms.  Even worse there's English birds all over the place now.................whats yer name luv................Elizabeth Oxford as in the town yaya!  What are they all doing coming?  WHO is accepting them?

And then there's drinking...................it's all blue WKD and lemon pansy arse froth.  TA drinking is lager whiskey and pear cider.  Anyone who is IN knows that.  It's what made Scotland a brand.

Then there's the youth hostel brigade.  Clearly you are TOO young.  The real TA go back a long way babies..........and you if you qualify for a hostel you must be kids and we dont take kids.  It (you) spoil our party.  Stay at home and go camping in Pitlochry with a case of Tesco blue stripe for a treat.  Treat yourself and treat us.  We paid a fortune.

And clothing.  Piper jacket, glengarry, pheasant feather (collected not bought), clan crest (if you dont have one leave now), kilt (proper not gay), thistle socks and boots.  What are you doing at a Scotland game in your Asda jeans, German trainers and a ropy top from Sport and Soccer.  Oh they are soooo expensive!  Take a hike.  Jeans mean pants or worse still Calvin Klein boxer shites with the hostel brigade.  We dont do pants and we dont do American designer pap.  And sticking a mini kilt from New Look on your horrible English tart will gain you minus recognition.

Club tops - If we wore them they's be mostly Rangers.  Everyone knows the TA is nearly all blue, but being educated and affluent means its not pushed in your face.  That's where you get all the hype about the paupers of Aberdoom.  High on heroin, desperate to make a show and owning only one top what can they do.  Home made Arbroath tats on your calves are out as well.  Walk away now.  And Hibs and Motherwell and all the other pseudo football fans.  No need to worry about the **** s though.   They're all following Eire (Error!) or lying in their own sick.

And all this charity pash is winning no real TA hearts and minds.  Ill conceived by some Barnardos baby wanting to give something back clearly forgetting (drugs again probably) where theyve come from and why they are so dysfunctional in the first place.  A Scottish orphan is worth XXXXX Lithuanian kids.  Oh! its because of a war is it.  Well if they'd won their wars and moved on like us there would be no problem.  And where does the money really go.  I hear Ruarys a FAT CAT.  And how do they raise their money.  By putting your name on a tshirt (probably made in a sweatshop) Is that not like writing your name on  your schoolbook.  And then they dont even put their name on they think up something to do with Scotland and then something to do with themselves.  So you get errrrr Glengarry Gary or Bay City Barry.  I dont know, but its clearly of no relevance to anyone except their ecstacy popping peer group.  Your 15 minutes huh !  And with charideee thrown in.  Oh and possibly a vist to the Embassy to hand over your shoebox donation that noone in Easterhouse would want.  But you get to meet the Ambassador..........the English Ambassador..............and its all Im so grateful SIR.

And then theres all the abysmal photos that you MUST applaud.  Oh here we are under the Eifel Tower in Alicante errrr (where you probably slept like homeless bums).  Oh heres a photo of Billy's arse.................ye ken its him cos hes got  "Billy saved the world with his shoebox" printed on the back of his exclusive Auchter**** Muchty TA tshirt.  What happened to adventure.  Us TA used to travel for a minimum of 7 days to get to game.  We've got photos to enthrall your English in laws for weeks.  Its all down to cheapness I imagine.....and the need to get back and sign on....or worse catch a lecture.  Go on a battlebus and you will get adventure.  Go on easysweat and you'll all be bleat bleat bleating how you paid 5 quid to get to an airport five miles outta town and then you had to pay for a bus as well before a ten hour walk to your eurohostel which is not even in the same town.

Then theres the MARCH.  There's always some tit who is asking about a march to a ground that has not even been designated ten minutes after the draw was made.  There might be a march but YOU will not be included because you are an over excited masturbation champion (at least we win something!!)  The proper TA will have booked up near to the city centre and with due consideration to ground proximity thereby covering all avenues.  Just cos you turn up with a pair of Spekkles on does not mean it will be all kisses..............Glasgow kisses mair like.

And then there's all this Diana syndrome mourning just cos some bloke on a trip was drunk driving a Lada on a C Class Belarus farm track and happened to die.  Why did he not have a Merc and a local driver??  And then someone posts my mate Jimmy whatever is in hospital in a coma.  Well my granny died last week (again)  and she wasnae runnin round Eastern Europe blootered but no one posted about her.  And she was way more Scottish than that gay bloke in a turban with his english burd trying to pretend that he was hetro anyway.

These are the rules.

Scottish, lager, whiskey or pear cider drinker.  So many games under yer belt the SFA will NOT refuse you a ticket.  You have all the garb (from your great great great grandfather who fell at Bannockburn).  You pay directly from your WAGES (look it up) to Scottish charities.  You pay your dues and get your rewards.

If you dont like that theres a multiple chioce:

1.  Fuck off.

2.  See if you can get your ma to turn a few more tricks to raise your capital.

3.  Get a job and work your way up from there.

4.  Just Die, but in the knowledge that your name will forever be remembered on the the TAMB by your one junkie buddy regailing us about how you fell in combat on TA duty but really you were folded into a suitcase in Leith.  

And anyone who has anything to say is going home in a Queensferry ambulance.........................
