Current performance says Scotland deserve it. Not sure why you have to mention England in this though? Issues?

I would not say issues, most Scots will agree that we will never be quite as good as England but we are a smaller country etc. I can't recall another time when we were so close to England in the rankings.......Originally posted by The Lone Gunman View Post"If you can read this, thank a teacher....and since it's in English, thank a soldier"Comment

I have seen that, and I still dont understand it. There are another 8 teams above England that Scotland are approaching. There are 3 teams that they are closer to overtaking.Originally posted by Cliphead View Post
I suppose there is always some interest between the home nations but I see no need for promoting this kind of rivalry.
I am genuinely pleased for Scotland. I regard them as one of the worlds best football nations (especialy when you take size into account). I still feel Celtic winning in Europe with a local footie team is one of the achievements of all time.I am not qualified to give the above advice!

I don't see it as rivalry, I see it as a measure of our success this tournament and if I was English, I would take it as a compliment that my team was being used as the yard stick...Originally posted by The Lone Gunman View Post"If you can read this, thank a teacher....and since it's in English, thank a soldier"Comment

Yes, but to me it doesnt come across like that. Maybe I have issues, but I read it along the lines of "as long as we are better than England" type comments.Originally posted by daviejones View PostI am not qualified to give the above advice!

Well that would be silly because the stats show we have a way to go to catch up...being reallistic.Originally posted by The Lone Gunman View Post"If you can read this, thank a teacher....and since it's in English, thank a soldier"Comment

Surely this is the only one that counts:

Interestingly England have slipped a place to Argentina! Not quite sure how they figure it out
