Good to see there is still a spirit of toughness among some Scots, in the face of decades of socialist wankerdom!! Maybe people like this guy will help to revive that fierce Scottish martial spirit that has been so enervated by wankers. What a useful kick, hope his newfound celebrity is something he can enjoy and not get ruined by.......

A good, old-fashioned,
literal Scottish ass-kicking. This guy is getting a Christmas card from me this year. :-)

Since last Saturday's attack, his friends tell him that women have been asking to be introduced to him. His cell phone is jammed with messages. He's puzzled as to why people are so taken with his story. "I haven't a Scooby," he says, meaning he doesn't have a clue. I see Cockney rhyming slang has hit Gleska - "Scooby" = "Scooby Doo" rhymes with "clue".
Love this poem that the WSJ reprints in its entirety:
Twas doon by the inch o' Abbots
Oor Johnny walked one day
When he saw a sicht that troubled him
Far more than he could say...
"Now that's no richt wur!"
Johnny cried
And sallied tae the fray
A left hook and a heid butt
Required tae save the day.
Now listen up Bin Laden
Yir sort's nae wanted here
For imported English radicals
Us Scoatsman huv nae fear

Oh man, I saw this guy on Fox the day it happened and I was smitten. Better not let Mr. Repo know...

Brit to Scot: What’s that you’re eating for breakfast, lad?
Scot to Brit: Oatmeal.
Brit to Scot: Oatmeal? In England we feed oats to horses!
Scot to Brit: Aye, and that’s why your English have strong horses, and we Scots have strong men!

.....hope his newfound celebrity is something he can enjoy and not get ruined by.....Right with you on your post. Yes, indeed the instant fame may be even tougher than the psycopathic suicidal "martyr" that he stopped. As I see it, it was just a breath away from an ignition, that would have scorced the security and maybe our gallant lad.
Off topic here. Please forgive everyone. It was the greatest boxing hero of Glasgow- Benny Lynch who was destroyed by his popularity. Lynch was the flyweight champion of the world in the 1930's. Even when Benny tried to get back on keel, after losing, the crowd bought him drinks.
A knowing biographer quoth "They bought Benny a drink, when they should have bought him a meal". That being said.
God love this guy.

That kick of his was for all of us. Hooray!

Good on ye, Mr. Smeaton.
I’ll be glad when heroic acts are the rule, not the exception. A few coma-inducing ass kickings of militant Islamists trying to cause trouble on airplanes would be a good start.

There is also a picture of Osama bin Laden with the caption: "You told me John Smeaton was off on Saturdays!" Achmed replied, "NO! I told you, 'John Smeaton is always ready to go off on Saturdays'."

His message to terrorists: "You come to Glasgow, we don't stand for it," he says. "We'll just set aboot ye." I just LOVE a thick Scottish burr!!

I would translate “set aboot ye” not so much as “decking” somebody, as with a single punch, but more along the lines of administering a thorough beating with head butts (the usual opening gambit in a Glasgow free-for-all) kicks and punches until the recipient stops moving . . . .

Please remember that “Smeato” wasn't the only one who went for them.
Glasgow - The only place where the police have to protect suicide bombers from the general public.
