    It's like claiming that Scotland will win the 2010 World Cup just because the number of fans who would have watched the games has changed, it's ludicrous.

    Take the UK EU referendum held in 1975, it was 67% in favour, if held today it would probably be a totally different result, but do you see the 37% no voters from then claiming they have the moral high ground?
    I don't think you have any idea of how football works. You don't win World Cups by having the most fans watching.

    It's not over, it's only just begun

      You don't win elections or referenda after the vote has been held and the votes cast, that's why I put that ludicrous example forwards.
