It was the UK Football Fans, in the Sheep Costume, with the Ignition Source.

That's baaad.

Aberdeen fans said the man ran ablaze through the carriage as others threw beer on him to douse the flames.

It is understood a number of the fans at the match and on the train were dressed as sheep.

my god, it's full of win...

A police officer fell asleep on a train. You see, he had just come back from a case out in the country side where a series of grizzly murders had a small town in a panic. No one had gotten a good look at the perp, but all of the witness's stories had one thing in common: football. UK football, or soccer as it's better known over here.

The officer stirred. The last victim had been the worse, charred from head to toe out in the middle of a field. Forensics couldn't pin point an ignition source, but it had the calling card of the other murders: a soccer ball resting exactly three feet away from the head of the victims. But this scene was different. It was the only one to occur outdoors, and there where hoof prints. Lots of them...

The lights on the train flickered and it woke the officer. He hated trains, but it was the easiest way to get back home. Then he heard it. A slow, methodical clicking coming down the car. Slowly, a soccer ball rolled past him. He turned to see a large man with three days of growth on his face dressed in a pink sheep one piece. The man raised the butch's knife he was holding and ran full speed towards the officer

The Incredible Sexual Egg then woke up and realized that an attempt at counting sheep to fall asleep had gone horrible awry. Maybe it was the beer before bed. It was either too much or not enough

I can think of worse things that could happen to a guy dressed like a sheep in Scotland.

Subby's trying to pull the wool over our eyes. Nowhere in that article did it mention a man dressed as a sheep. It is clearly a typo, "sheep" is code for fark buddy.

I call shenanigans. Scottish people wasting good beer? Would never happen.

This is what I came here to say, or somethin like it. The flames must have been obstructing their view.

Great. You'll enjoy this then.

Not only that, but Aberdeen got gubbed by Hibs. Not his day.

If dressing like a sheep is wrong, then I don't want to be right.

ThunderChild - I call shenanigans. Scottish people wasting good beer? Would never happen.

It was probably Tennents. In which case no good beer was wasted as that pish isn't fit to bear the name 'beer'.

OK: a policeman in a protective sheep costume performed an experiment wherein several UK fans threw flaming bottles of beer from a moving train to test a new inertial dampener device.

This should be a Photoshop challenge.

Ok, taking this story in a different direction--and country.

After watching another University of Kentucky Wildcat Football game, and guzzling a tremendous amount of beer to dull the pain, I resolved to take action. i kidnapped the head coach, stuffed him in a sheep costume, and had him 'pull a train' with a group of lecherous hillbillies. We then got him drunk, and left him outside the football stadium at the ignition point at an attempted arson of the entire stadium to bring an end once and for all to the state tragedy that is University of Kentucky football.

Aberdeen fans are known as sheepshaggers(literally 'ones who stcik their knobs up the sheeps shiat hole')

Strange that this wasn't treated as a terrorist incident, after all Kirkcaldy is Gordon Brown's constituency.
