i thought it was like a mexican standoff, where they face AWAY from each other...and don't turn around to see any of the match unless they think the OTHER is about to turn around and watch the match, but if they turn around before the other turns then they get shot and die.

Logistically not easy, but that's why it's so special.

Most ludicrous and brilliant post ever, thanks for the brew-spray.

this forum is now crawling with Johnny Come Lately's and absent fanatics...

That is the only explaination I can think of for nobody mentioning the three Mexican waves in the first two games at Eastlands?

One near the end of the game against Barca and two in the TNS game (one of which went right round the stadium about 5 times)

There was also one when England played Japan here.

And the Celtic one is called the bouncy, It goes Bouncy Bouncy Bouncy Bouncy Naa Na Na Na Na Naa...

My hoops fan mate says its called the huddle

He also claims they did it before anyone else

But he is Scottish and texts Scottish speak so we already know he is a knob

Text him back and tell him that Celtic could have been doing it for 100 years and still no-one would care because it's Scottish football.
