Scotland's Shame

This was in the centre pages of the Sun the day of the Scotland v Holland game.

I'm not a Scotland fan having grown up in Ireland but I always want to see them do well. If I was I would be raging that this is as far as the national sense of pride stretches! A prayer mat to point towards Hampden, kneel on and pray for a miracle? does anyone else find that ridiculous? A newpaper so confident that their national team has no talent or resolve whatsoever the only thing that will work is a miracle? There are smaller nations that actually have a sense of pride and would get behind the team in the proper way!

They might have well put an advert in the centre pages saying Along Came Polly is on at the same time and you'd be better off watching that!
