Scotland versus Scotland in bar brawl in Soi Yamoto.

It was fight night on Soi Yamoto on Tuesday, more specifically inside one of the many beer bars on the street. The fight was between Mr. Colin McQuick aged 38 from Scotland and Mr. David John aged 40 also from Scotland. Both men decided to fight after realizing that both were ex-armed forces signified by their tattoos. A heated discussion on which platoon was the better soon turned physical. At this point the Police were called and the two men were escorted to Pattaya Police Station. Initially they continued to verbally abuse each other. But, eventually they both shook hands and the fighting was over. Police decided to fine both men 500 Baht each and they went on they way back to Soi Yamoto to carry on drinking.

We're very polite. We only fight with each other. No big deal.

Way to avoid a scrapping with a Scotsman - buy him a drink and all is forgotten!!

Being Scotsmen I suppose the 500 baht would hurt more than the blows

I'll have a whisky and coke. Always siad you were a good sort.

Q: What's the difference between an englishman and a coconut ?

A: You can get a drink out of a coconut.

Pretty much proves the point made in Braveheart; too busy fighting each other to ever get their shit together to beat the English.

There were two Scotsmen who bet a Pound on who could stay under the water the longest.

...They both drowned.

I'll have a whisky and coke. Always siad you were a good sort.

A true Scotsman wouldn't even consider poluting a whisky with a coke!

Black label isn't real whisky.

Ahh whisky...

A kilted Scotsman was walking down a country path after finishing off a large amount of whisky at a local pub. he felt quite sleepy and decided to nap under a tree.

As he slept, two female tourists heard his loud snoring. When one of them found him she said, "I`ve always wondered what a Scotsman wears under his Kilt."

She boldly walked over to the sleeper, raised his kilt and saw that he wore nothing at all.

Her friend said, "Well now the mystery is solved, lets thank him for sharing!"

She took off her pretty red hair ribbon and gently tied it around the Scotsman`s endowment.

A while later the Scotsman was awakened by the call of nature. He raised his kilt and was bewildered at the sight of the neatly tied red ribbon.

He stared for a minute, then said, " I don`t know where y`been laddie.....but it`s nice ta see ya won firrst prrize!"

Reminds me of the good (?) old days as a young infantryman. We had rivalries between individual sections within the platoon. Rivalries between different platoons, companies, battalions and regiments. We would all stick together when it came to fighting the navy squids or air force &lt;deleted&gt;, but if it was a brawl with civilians, everybody, (army, navy, air force) would band together. Very tribal.

Guys would get into a scrap and end up in jail. Monday morning they'd get paraded in front of the RSM (Regimental Sargeant Major, aka "God" or "He who makes Majors mumble, Captains cringe and lieutenants loose their bowels, He with the eyes of an eagle, nose of a bloodhound, temper of a wolverine).

If the guys were smart, they'd tell the RSM that (whoever they'd been fighting with) had bad-mouthed the regiment, so they had to defend the regiments honour.

Give him a good enough story and he'd send you home for the rest of the day to rest and recover. Otherwise he'd ask you to pick a number (i.e. between 7 - 14 or 14-21 or similar). What ever number you picked was the number of extra duties you'd just "earned".

As I write this, it occurs to me that I don't recall seeing a fight (in Pattaya) other than between farangs. I think I've seen about a half-dozen altercations over the years, always foreigners.

I was sat in Wonderful Bar 1 when it happened...........

.........all i can say is i hope i never have to rely on these 2 guys to defend the country .

Did any action take place in the Thistle bar???

Did anyone see the photos of the two guys? Was it just the PCN screenshot or was that guys nose a whole lot closer to one ear than the other?

I've seen quite a few, especially in the (Thai) Karaoke bars. I have quite a few Thai friends and they always want to go to those places. Not keen myself but many times there are minor scuffles or big brawls. There was also one in the paper the other week on the Beach but that was with Guns and knives also

I was in the Royal Navy and we did exactly the same Kerryd. Fights between the different Services but always stuck together against Civvies.

Havnt heard of any................this was in bar directly opposite Wonderful 1 think its called Waterfall Bar officially (Cowboy Bar unofficially ?)

Ahh whisky...

These are the type that give Farang a bad name. The Thais should just deport these louts.

You were sitting in the Wonderful Bar 1 when it happened ......

A week or two back you were sitting in the Wonderful Bar 1 when a guy jumped out of the second floor window, nekkid .....

Could it be that this is your 'local'? Or is it that Soi Yamoto only springs to life as you walk down past Las Vegas / Far East Rock to sip a brew or two?

So now, as well as racism, other prejudices, we should just punish people for their looks?

I've spent nearly fifty years on a rugby pitch and don't look too different from the guy in the lower photo (except the tattoos) so should I be deported? Or should all people with tattoos be deported (half the Thai bar-girls sport tattoos - what do we do with them).

Muppetts like that should be deported, not for having tattoos but for being classless idiots. The first guy is standing up arguing with the police officer and looks like he is getting pretty aggressive. The second one has no shirt on, although I will give him the benefit of the doubt that it was ripped off in the fight, and is grinning at the camera making the thumbs up sign. Classic scumbag, chav behaviour. Doesnt look like they are even slightly embarassed by their behaviour.

I dont think anyone mentioned that they should be deported just for their looks or tattoos so I am unsure how you came to that conclusion.

BTW nearly 50 years on a rugby pitch - thats a pretty long game

Ditto that StateSix.

Humphrey, how did you come up with your conclusion of "racism, other prejudices, we should just punish people for their looks". I'm white, so are they. What other prejudices did i mention? As for their looks, StateSix sums it up.

they shoulda taken them both down to the end of the road and put em in one of the boxing rings on beach road to finish it off, this way they couldnt have damaged anything/anyone else

My money woulda been on the guy in the lower photo

I'd agree two fine representatives of Scotland!!!

Good Heavens ...what makes you think that we want them back here?

Anyway I am sure no body would wish to deny the young ladies of patti the opportunity of making friends with 2 wonderfull big "hansom" specimens of farang malehood.

Are you sure these clowns were fighting in the Cowboy Bar (Waterfall Bar)? I drank in there for 4 years and never saw any bother. Good crowd in there, Dutch, German,English,Scottish, and any other nationality. The Boss was well respected and connected, though the place may have taken a dive as she has now concentrated on another venture further up the coast.
