 Scotland V Georgia Saturday 24th March
I have'nt got a ticket for the game tomorrow so I'll be watching the game in a pub in the west end of Glasgow, kick-off 3pm, any other X-Markers or Tartan Army foot soldiers about in the west end tomorrow.

This one confused me for a moment or three. The title had me thinking of the university of Georgia (here in the states). I assume that this game is with the republic of Georgia that used to be part of the Soviet Union?

No, sorry I won't be in Glasgow this Saturday as I'll be staying local this weekend for our local Reivers Festival. Hoping for a good result and no doubt there will be lots of kilts out and about in Glasgow tomorrow to support Scotland.

I always just call it "Gruzia" to avoid the state/nation confusion . . . but it helps to speak Russian! (I can't even hardly speak "Gruzinskii" or "Georgian.")

I guess it does not really matter, but I am torn on the outcome of this game.... I have a Scottish background, but visited Georgia (Mt. Elbrus region) a couple of years ago. I really enjoyed my time there.
Either way, I hope the game is entertaining and well played!

Hey Kid Cossack,I dont speak Russian but I do speak Georgian,South Georgian that is.There are places here along the coast where it helps to understand some of the old kings english as well as geechie.
Its better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open it,and remove all doubt.

Well, I'll be in Glasgow, as I live there, but I'll also be at work until 4.
I'll probably be heading out to the west end after work to meet a friend of mine who is visiting from American with her boyfriend from Perthshire. (Oh, international!)
If you're in any of the pubs I frequent then I'll be sure to say hello.

Ah the Rubaiyat in Byres Road - was a favorite student haunt in my days at Glasgow University 1969 to 1972.
