Ha ha. I think you'll find that they voted to stop British. They weren't asked if they wanted to be English or the result would have been very different. Someone you know is about to set off for your place and is going to stuff her toy bagpipes right up your arris. Wish I could be there to see the smile on your face!

Maybe they don't like the verse about crushing rebellious scots?
Who knows, I just wish it wasn't our national anthem

Think the 400,000+ English living in Scotland helped a bit

I'd like to agree wholeheartedly with you on this, but I can't help thinking that the game last night was - in effect - the equivalent of a top eight Premiership team against a mid-table Championship team (looking at the players involved and the style of football). So, a fairly convincing victory should have been expected. I am not convinced it would have been as good/positive against a team playing a continental style. That said, it is pleasing to get the type of result we should be getting and not under performing. I will reserve judgement for the time being, but we're going in the right direction.
Incidentally, it pleases me greatly not to have Gerrard clogging things up - a huge step forward in my opinion.
