Does he have an alien growing in his stomach?

What’s going on?

He's a sectarian moron

trying to attack Neil Lennon. It’s bad enough this guy has been sent bullets and a parcel bomb in the post lately, and now some Yankee-cap wearing lunatic actually tries to get him. I’m generally not one of those people who gets all antsy about people running on the field – in most cases there is clearly absolutely no danger to players and staff, and in any case, if there’s a nutter in the house the people who sit next to them during the game should get most protection, surely – but in this case, with a series of nasty incidents, the security was a big let down. Luckily nothing bad happened but Lennon was visibly shaken and tearful.

So...Scotland is the Philladelphia of the UK?

Nah, just messing around. Scotland is a nice place; I’d actually want to go visit there.

Ha!

As a Mancunian (originally) I have to say Liverpool is the Philadelphia of the UK. But if you mean simply rough, then Glasgow is pretty much up there. This happened in Edinburgh actually, which has a very genteel image but some incredibly deprived areas (and plenty of people ripe for a football-themed rumble).

Actually it kind of fits,

Philly was the birthplace of the United States (which is awesome) and hasn’t done anything since, and Liverpool is the place of The Beatles (equally awesome), and , to my knowledge, hasn’t done anything since.

I’ll take it

Wait, who's Neil Lennon,

and why are asshats sending him death threats?

Celtic manager

and former middling player for several clubs. He’s a Northern Irish Catholic, and the Glasgow football scene is pretty much black and white on that issue. Moreover, he apparently has voiced his desire to see a united Ireland, which in some quarters apparently means you qualify for the parcel bomb treatment. (sorry, gone a bit towards politics here but I think it’s all statements of fact)

Spaceballs reference?

Trying to believe is my full-time occupation.

I think Total Recall.

Can you imagine if this crap happened here?

I was born in Scotland and raised in Australia and I have seen the stupidity that comes from soccer in Britain. Mailing bombs and bullets is ridiculous.

Being attacked by a wanker wearing a Yankees hat, to be expected.
