The Scots were deeply upset because their team got beat by Italy, and didn't qualify for the European football Championships. Despite the fact that the Scots had a chance, in reality this wasn't really a surprise, but they had got themselves so worked up that they had to lash out afterwards.
Inevitably it was somehow the English's fault, and when Israel beat Russia to raise the possibility that England would some what luckily qualify (they need only a draw against a Croatia who have already qualified), violence took place.
My Scots friend texted me to say that when Israel scored the winner, a group of English people in the pub were physically attacked. Having been in Scotland, and seen how "racist" they can be about the English and sports when otherwise rational people become violent and abusive in their hatred, its very daft but also disturbing.
Scotland get a life, stop blaming England for all your failures!
How are we are to take you seriously, if you are carrying a chip on your shoulders about the size of a plank? Apart from anything else it makes you walk with a national limp.
JUST IN CASE YOU FORGOT .... WE DIDN'T FORCE YOU TO CREATE THE UNION! You joined of your own accord because you were broke and needed England to pay off your national debt, which your 'old alliance' were about to foreclose on.
It's equally up to you to leave the 'Union' by voting SNP and Yes to the referendum question. Easy as that, so there is no historical or real basis to think of yourselves as being oppressed by England.
You came into the Union of your own accord and can leave of your own accord. Beating up or abusing English sports supporters doesn't change the facts, and makes you Racist Neds.
Addendum: Just to keep the record straight, England failed to take advantage of their good fortune and lost to Croatia at home 2:3 and so failed to qualify. There was no doubt much celebration in Scotland at the fact that they did so, but with no British teams qualifying it's gonna take away the main Scottish occupation of supporting everyteam that England played against ..... so there will be two nations twiddling their thumbs next summer.
The England manager got sacked (but paid 2.5 million for his failure), and much wailing, gnashing of teeth and tearing of clothes has taken place in England since. Oddly England are now only second seeds in their world cup qualifying group, which is headed by ..... Croatia, so it could all happen again as only one team qualifies from the group.
