1) Jack McConnell - Donald Dewer died in 2001
2) Elgin - Stirling MIGHT be.. Fury wins 5k
3) False - Fury wins 5k
4) PAH! False. - Nobody wins 
5) Whisky - We invented it. You learn to spell  Fury wins 5k
6) Iron Brew (Irn Bru is a brand name.. I think) - Fury wins 5k
7) False - Gaelic is only a language in the Western Isles and the Highlands. The lowlands spoke Scots; a form of English; and much of the Highlands still speak this. Thats the "whit like, ye ken whit i mean, aye, och nae" sort of speech. Nobody wins.
8) False - Fury wins 5k
9) Glasgow - JR wins 5k, but Rangers is of late the better.. 6 points ahead of Celtic - JR wins 5k
10) Fury was right  5k
When Fury and JR tally up how much they have won and posts it, I'll send it to them
