We were too busy sending players to your clubs otherwise you wouldn't have had any.

I think you'll find there were a number of scots at the railway works that founded Newton Heath also.

Why do scottish people always feel the need to justify their nation and go on about what they've done?

Very odd. No one could give two shits

Scottish people have to be the worst chip carrying @#%&!s around. Even worse than the irish and northern Irish.

Why are scots so desperate to prove themselves? Most of the scots I know are like that even to the point where they talk the most amazing bullshit so people think they are great. Can you explain it?

Default I'm half Scottish..

..and I have a great deal of affection for the place and on the whole, the Scotts themselves..

..but even the most ardent Scot must admit, that this continual benchmarking of themselves and their country to England, this continual need for justification, recognition and approval, makes them...

..the Manchester City of countries.

Default ..however,

I could of just countered, that it may have been a Scot who founded the Football League, but it was an Englishman* who founded Football itself.

















* [SIZE="1"]I'm assuming it is..

ah yes, william mcgregor. like matt busby and alf ramsay, yet another scot who left his godforsaken backwoods country in search of someplace better. the fact that he identified birmingham as that place really says it all.


in any case, given that the football league, like the premier league and the fa, are a bunch of abu @#%&!s i'm not sure what there is to be proud in founding them.
