    Because Northern Middle English is the language....just the same as Americans speak English. Despite being a different country, the language stays the same.

    Because much of Lowland Scotland was settled by Angles* (same as Northumberland) in the early middle ages. (Scots is an Old English dialect). Presumably, with their fair share of Norman aristocracy (think of the Anglo-Norman Bruces), the French influence which led to the development of Middle English in England would have the same effect in Scotland, regardless of national loyalties.

    * In a genetic survey on the BBC, proud Scot James Naughtie was "delighted" to discover that he was, in fact, genetically an Englishman. <laugh>

    Managers get a decent pay off....just before Xmas is probably good because you get to have a good break. Probably will fly off abroad in the New Year as well.

    They'll probably get Big Sam.

    They should get Rowett.

    Either would be great tbh, though Sam the safe option.

    I could see them in the top 10 with Sam.

    With the payoffs he's had in the last few years he really doesn't have to work again. And he can live in the lap of luxury while he doesn't.
