Hampden Park is a really really bad stadium.

It's like a pancake artificially inflated by a bicycle pump, but with the bicycle tyre's inner tube as a running track that means the front seats are about 50 metres away from the touchline and have a 0.03 degree horizontal view and the 'luxury seats' at the back are approximately 400 miles away in Norway meaning fans within the stadium can only view the game through an electron microscope OR a giant space-telescope like what they have in Chile (depending on which end you look through it).

Apparently someone called Culloden has scored. Oh, Foden.

I am going to start documenting these florid rants and spewings that go utterly ignored for posterity.

One day I might publish a book of them.

It is hard to believe it used to hold 150,000 people. I know people were smaller in the olden days but, still. They must've been crammed in like sardines.
