    Wasn't that the dead rubber game in the group, you having already been beaten by some giants of world football such as Costa Rica,Iran, Peru or the like and Holland already through unless they lost 3-0.

    I don't claim any knowledge of third world soccer!

    Silly Billy me! Forgot you lot hadn't qualified for the World Cup that year. Again.

    We were beaten by Peru and drew with Iran. Netherlands drew with Peru & beat Iran. So we were on the same points going in to the last game. We lost 3-2 to the eventual losing finalists.

    Suspect you may be mixing this up with Euro '96.

    That's an odd way for you to say "I was wrong. Again". :D

    I guess they skipped quotes in your Grammar lessons. Some day I'll explain your own language to you.

    We've never played a World Cup at home. How many World Cups have you won playing away? Same number as us, isn't it?

    Just about as badly as your Euro Championship finals that you've played away from home.

    Lets not stray into sad subjects for the Scots.

    I have a feeling they won this game but still went out at the group stage on goal difference, as they did in 1974. It would be unfair to remind them of this.

    It would only be fair for our younger members to let them know which world powers knocked them out of these tournament. I will post up the we songs just to get everyone in the mood.
