I was there that day, and the one thing I learned that day about the Scots was that what ever they might say to the contrary, part of the very fabric of being a Scot is to be anti-English.  It is fair to say that this event marked me in many ways, one in understanding the Scots (friends and foes alike), the high risk and pettiness that go together when dealing with nationalism (not just Scottish but all nationalists), plus how stupid Denis Law was to claim on the basis of one game that Scotland were now champions of the world!!

UBT - a serious question. Why is it that the English seize on comments by Scottish sports people (Law and Murray) which are so clearly tongue-in-cheek and make a huge deal about it
