Les rule des Or as the monacanese say. I think you wiz right about the permit for the march to Hampden. I was chatting to a guy who reckons that one wasn't applied for but was granted at the last minute after the cops practically led them by the nose to get one. He made the point that extrordinary lengths were went to to make sure they had authorisation. He does not think the GB were extended the same courtesy. But yes they had one apparently.
