Are Scotland the Norwich of international football on 08:22 - Jun 24 with 1539 views | bluelagos | England v Scotland about 10 years ago at Wembley, I took my 8 year old nephew to his first England game. On the tube it's fair to say quite a few Scots had had one too many. Nephew turns to me and asks (a bit too loudly) "Uncle Lagos, are all Scotsmen drunkards?" I genuinely have no issues with them, get absolutely slaughtered but without the nasty side you often see with England fans. But yeah, their team are crap. |  |

The strange thing about Scotland is that there are still remnants of the Calvinist teetotal/no joy tendency, but clearly they don't follow the Scottish national team. My mother probably fell into that category, as did one of my ancestors who was a member of the Wee Wee Frees, a breakaway from the Wee Frees who broke away from the Church of Scotland because it wasn't God-fearing enough. But these days the Calvinist churches have a rapidly diminishing influence, with the exception of Western Isles. [Post edited 24 Jun 2024 11:05]

I had Nodge more down as the Transylvania of the domestic leagues; a very backward place where things made of silver are viewed as dangerous and to be avoided at all costs, a closed society of large families and, due to their lack of impact on the rest of the world, no-one can be absolutely sure that they really exist apart from as some kind of a dark joke.

Constantly harking back to long distant success, unpleasant supporters very quick to turn on ‘their’ team, bouyed by recent success and a media darling manager soon to depart. |  |
