    Will this be the ill-informed World Cup punditry thread?

    MF - are you running a book on the Rooney sending-off?

      I shall be looking to run a book & a sweepstake. Can you just let me know which players you know personally so I don't get stiched over again.

      Thx

          Quite looking forward to seeing if he is right.
          And why not? If Scotland ever managed to win anything of any significance I'm sure they'd want to bring it up on the appropriate occasions.

            and in every Scotland match, they always mention William Wallace.

                  New England song perhaps?

                  This is the end..
                  Beautiful friend
                  This is the end
                  My only friend, the end
                  Of our elaborate plans, the end
                  Of everything that stands, the end
                  No safety or surprise, the end
