rammy
/ˈrami
/noun (plural rammies) Scottish
A quarrel or brawl: they started a rammy at the taxi rank ‘Keep the rammy doon, I’m trying to kip.’...
- That was about right for a man who likes settling scores, albeit these days with goals rather than rammies.
- This precipitated an almighty rammy in which no fewer than 15 players turned a football match into a pushing match.
- In this vein, at least the subsequent rammy injected some life.
Origin
1930s: perhaps from Scots rammle 'row, uproar', variant of ramble.
