The yes campaign sparked this over the last few weeks with there threats and actions. The no voters or some of them said if we won the vote between 6 and 6.30 on Friday there would be a gathering in Glasgow now if you were a yes voter I am convinced the last please you would have been was Glasgow on Friday night. Also a think it was a flare being lite rather than a saltire set on fire as when I seen it advertised it said bring your saltire flags as well as union flags. The last line of jambo's post is spot on just the media up here are used to laying into Rangers fans sorry but it's true. Every crowd has its idiots just like Manchester a few years 200,000 fans most drinking all day there is going to be trouble. The person that needs to take most of the responsibility for this is Alex Salmond it's his shite that started it and could split this country up for a little while yet.

Exactly well said. He made an existing divide huge and has now walked away and left. There was an interesting article on the day of the referendum and it said that secretly Salmond wanted an no vote as he knew deep down he couldn't deliver. I think that is true he didn't come across crestfallen as I expected he might have been.

And not only did he make an existing divide bigger here in Glasgow but he also divided the rest of the country for something that wasn't an issue for 99% of the country until two years ago. Then they started getting all the false promises, believed it and thought this might be quite good here.

Salmond has now resorted to mud slinging rather than taking the result with grace and dignity.

ALEX Salmond has been asked if he would like to run Syria for a bit.

The Scottish First Minister, who still has ‘lead a nation’ on his To Do list, has been offered the post because of a shortage of non-genocidal candidates.

UN secretary-general Ban Ki-Moon said: “We were wondering who could draw a disparate nation at war with itself together under a threadbare banner of nationalism.

“Salmond’s got a track record of not-complete failure and if he can fool one nation with a string of vague utopian promises, he can do it with two.

“They even wear skirts. It’s ideal.”

Salmond is seriously considering the idea, but is annoyed that he was the UN’s second choice after they were turned down by Sven-Goran Eriksson
