Re: Sympathy for Seaman

You could also call a Scot in the 2nd round of the World Cup

i) a journalist
ii) a tourist
iii) Secretary of the English FA

As for the Scottish triumphs, I could round off a few English ones...Maradonna, Van Basten, Southgate etc.)

I do find it strange the over optimistic hype that always accompanies England. We shed all of that baggage after Argentina 78. Consider the respective resources - Scotland (5m population), England (50m). England do comparatively poorly for a leading nation.

PS - I tried not to do the "Seaman Blubbed" post - but after re-reading the previous ones, I couldn't resist it. Sorry for upsetting any City fans.....but it's in the genes.
