I think it will be a no and I think Salmond probably knows it. He looked beaten on the Andrew Marr show yesterday morning.
Personally, no bothered either way. Shame they can't have a clean slate with Sterling and make themselves the "nice" place to live.

I am hoping for a Yes, but sadly I think the bribery and generally underhand tactics of the predominantly English No campaign will win the day and it will be a No vote by roughly 53% to 47%.
I feel sorry for the Scots, at least they tried to get rid of the three sets of w4nkers in Westminster, us English just keep voting for one or other of them and we only have ourselves to blame for the sh1thole this nation has become!

Whatever happens, it'll be family against family and friend against friend for some time, all through political ambition and naked self interest.

I predict it will be a big majority for yes. Over 70%
Only one (misguided) person I know says she's voting no, simply because she can't stand Salmond.
Many of us are able to see through the lies and deceit of the no campaign.
I'm voting yes. We need a change. We've been a colony long enough.

If it were to happen it is England that will be doing the sinking, just it will no longer be dragging Scotland down with it.

But to be honest I don't care what they do as it makes no difference to me, I'll still be getting shat on from a great hight by the powers that be regardless of what party they are or the state of the union.
I have already voted with my feet.
Edit to add; So I guess I can see exactly where the YES campaigners are coming from, ******* shower of **** in Westminster.

Scot's think they can go it alone in the big world. UK already a small fish in big pond.
Utter stupidity and delusion to think they will be better off.
In the event of YES, then both England and Scotland will be worse off.
In the event of narrow NO, everyone will be scared to invest in Scotland for years to come.
Probably expect England to bail them out when it all goes wrong.
I predict a narrow NO but with negative consequences.

Cameron's ****ting himself because he will probably have to resign if it is yes
Which will then gives us Boris, and if you think nepotism and cronyism is bad with this shower of *****
Wait until the idiots in this country vote that clown in - he will take it to 11

Absolutely nothing..... it was a statement not a question.
One thing that gives me the ***** is when people residing here slag it off, but remain here. If this country is so bad then I assume you're leaving then.
The easiest thing is to bitch about something. It takes more ***** to be part of the solution, rather than the issue.
This nation and country is what YOU make it. End of!

I think the No's will win it - wonder how many people 'SAY' yes in public to avoid the intimidation of their neighbours and colleagues and will actually vote 'no' in the privacy of the voting booth....
So I reckon NO by a bigger margin than many imagine...
(either that or the yes will winhahahaha)

I also wonder, due to what's at stake here, that the 'count' will be manipulated to make sure that the country stays together....
All for the 'greater good' you understand
And if they do lose its gonna be conspiracy theory heaven for years!

Whatever happens, come Friday the posters will come down, the facebook profile pictures will revert to what they were before, news feeds will be full of crap rather than political crap and we'll all get along just as we did before.
We are the party nation, after all

Well you stuck a question mark on it so it looks like a question to me.
Yep, 2015 I'll be gone all being well.
Sod that, I thought for many years I could change things, I later learned that I couldn't as the majority of the population of this country are happy as long as they have a cheap takeaway, boozer and *** shop within shuffling distance and can watch their oh so important celebrity culture from the comfort of their financed DFS sofa!
Well f**k them
Well f**k them

And you’ll realise that you’re not in the comfy dreamscape of that over-Promised Land funded on a fantasy economy, but still in the tough reality of Union.
First depression will follow...
Then, later in the day, you’ll start the hunt for the “guilty”.
Followed swiftly by your punishment of the innocent: BBC, banks and businesses, "scaremongerers", No-voters who said they were going to vote “Yes”, No-voters who said they’d vote “No”, No-voters who pretended they didn’t know…
Sorry, I forgot: the last part’s already started….
