Correct, young Dugald, tis a well known fact that the Govan Team hailed from Linthouse. :P
Dugald wrote:HollowHorn, I gather from your above one-liner that there is/was a gang in Govan known as the "Govan Team". Whether they came from Govan or Linthouse would of course, make no difference, but then I gather this is the exact point you are making. Either way, I didn't know your gang. The only "Govan Team", or I should say "Govan Teams", I knew, were the Bens and the Ants, and you know they don't belong in the same league as those gangs featured on this thread. Anyway young fellow, my growing impression that you're an inveterate puller-of-legs, leads me to conclude your use of "correct" is something embroidered in irony... ach well, the wee funny yellow face informs me your wit is used in jest
