Come on now Gothic it needs to go. Can't it be replaced with something like:
"Development in Scotland's largest city" or "Scotland with Style"
Please vote in the poll. Should it stay or should it go, post your views.

We were discussing this elsewhere, Glasgow 2097 won with,

"It's dirty, and you want it"

My own,

"Glasgow, not Edinburgh" amused me.

Yeah definately - we've been moaning about that bastarding tag for ages.

I would agree that

"Its dirty and you want it" and "Glasgow, not Edinburgh" are the best ones


I would have to go for "Its dirty and you want it"

I don't think mentioning Edinburgh would do us any favours.

petty, small-minded, parochial.

please don't do it - it's as bad as 'Scotland the Brave'

Development in Scotland's largest city is fine IMO.

Achh pipe down matey - I very much doubt that Gleegie intended it to be a jibe at Edinburgh - all of the folks on this forum are well past all that "Like Glasgow? Hate Edinburgh" nonsense. (I hope.....)

A bit of fun is all :).

Just kidding!

Seriously just drop the brave bit and I'm sure we'd all be happy.

How about ' You'll have had your planning consent then?'

Or ' Glasgow, by the way.'

:) That should be left for a future Edinburgh forum.

Boy David:

sometimes you have to be very clear on this forum, subtle jokes are not easily detected on line, hence my plea to ignore 'ropey' suggestions, whether jokey or not. It was not a criticism of Gleegie however, but I'm sure he'll appreciate yer tag-team smackdown! ;)

Ah mean Gothic actually thought it was reasonable to put 'Scotland the Brave's etc..." as a tagline.

What about "Scotland, but wi mair slashings per square metre an' less soap" ?
