Well, given their timing, I haven't been able to go to a Neep match before (there's also the whole thing about not being Scottish and not supporting a Scottish team as my primary squad, but there you are). Being able to go today, though, was certainly quite the sight to see. I'm not sure what would be better though - seeing things from an entirely neutral perspective, or being absolutely passionate about it and not getting the result you want. I mean, the amount of passion down our end alone would be enough to take your ears off - I can't begin to think what it was like down in the patches with a high concentration of Montrose or Portree fans...

	If you're looking for a team that wasn't expected, I'd say Wigtown. Nobody thought that Wigtown would make it but they came back hard against us! So they definitely fit the scrappy underdog model. Plus Archie Ives is a hoot and their girls are lovely. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've been looking at their recent run, and it seems like they're doing pretty well, given early season form. And their team is fully behind the pink movement, right? So I feel like it wouldn't be a bad choice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Archie Ives is the only Muggleborn coach in the league, so they're completely behind the pink. Anyone who was against it wouldn't work with him, most likely. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That'd be a weird as hell set of values. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I know there are people who feel that wearing pink has become compulsory and, perhaps, something of an empty gesture. And anyone who actually worked with the Order of the Phoenix or was involved in people-smuggling during the war is entitled to feel that way. So I suppose it's possible, but it's definitely difficult to navigate.

And I don't mean that awful Rita Skeeter, though she's exactly the sort of person I'd think might wear pink without meaning it. Mostly because I'm not convinced anything she says means anything.
