It's a good point you make tho faz about how the English invented it and exported it around the world, English sailors had quite alot to do with it as I know some parts of Argentina were heavily influenced by English sailors who introduced it there, even Juventus were influenced by Notts County all those years ago.

Yet their national team is probably worse than Ireland and with an overall greater population than Ireland there are 5 million scots IF YOU WANT TO BE HEARD SPEAK SOFTLY - BOB PAISLEY

It's been a long long time since Scotland had any genuine top players, all very average at best and we have even taken to stealing sh*** players from England, it's a sorry state of affairs. I think Scottish population have decided to plan ahead for the day when smoking, drinking, shooting up and stabbing folk are added to the Olympics, we will be world beaters.
