Thread Name: BS: Scottish football
Subject: RE: BS: Scottish football
I watched the first half wearing my 60's shirt from the days of Jim Baxter & Denis Law, i'm dissapointed but never the less still proud of the players. The late great Jock Stein instilled a sense of reason with the fans about Scotland being a small nation blessed with some good players but not being world beaters.I'm happy with that at least it beats the 'arrogance' of English teams (footie and rugby) where them (and fuelled by the media) say that they're the best, then when they show what they really are capable of, that is average performances, they then pounce upon them with venom when realism sets in.
