    Runavik Spotting

    Just spotted about a dozen Runavik fans getting tanked up on caffeine in Cafe Nero on Shandwick Place. Anyone seen any more?

    It was about half a dozen middle aged couples. You could have cut the tension with a knife - felt like it was going to kick off any second.

    That would be around 0.03% of the entire population of the Faroe Islands.

    We would need to take 1585 fans to the away leg to match that figure.

    Yes, I'm bored.

    Just about had to 'av it with them.

    What's worse is that they can still buy this in the ground at half time, yet we can't get a pint?!!

    ******* disgraceful.

    One rule for caffeine loving Faroese, and another rule for the rest of us.

    I keep forgetting this team we are playing actually have a name and they're not just 'that team from the Faroes'.

    Taking my laddie to his first European encounter tonight, hope at some point i remember their name to tell him later on in life.

    I keep calling them Runrig. That isn't helping.

    Were they feeding the seagulls?

    A few of the staying in the Apex Hotel on Waterloo Place.

    Not sure if that's because they associate Waterloo with London and they are 'pwopa nawty' or just a coincidence though.

    Hoping police Glasgow give them the full surveillance number. cafe house coffee drinkers are far worse than exuberant hibbies or random west of Scotland FC supporters once they get started.

    The fact that I've seen video footage of a bus with probably at least 30 supporters on it suggests to me there is an element travelling without tickets (possibly subject to Faroese football banning orders and who have sailed instead of flown to avoid any detection at the airport) with the sole intention of causing trouble - hope the authorities are on their toes.

    Hope the police check out the seagulls carefully. We don't want any Faroese seagulls following trawlers to Leith docks and trying to noise up the locals. They cause enough trouble at Easter Road, as it is.

    Sorry to keep harpoon on about it, and I expect to get shot down for it, but I hope they have a whale of a time here.

    I guess the Apex Hotel must have Deep Fried Puffins on the menu then?

    All that caffeine. By kick-off they'll be wired like Andy's racket strings.

    We could get them to sponsor a seagull and maybe even adopt one each and take it home with them.

    Seagull problem solved.

    Trawlers in Leith? There haven't been fishing boats in Leith since Lawrie Reilly was leading the line at Easter Road. As for Faroese seagulls, I'm sure they'd be disgusted by their fat, lazy urban cousins who spend their whole lives scouring the streets for discarded fast food.
