i seriously don't get it, they should be like Uruguay, or Croatia, or something, there's so many other small nations who had a big footballing culture kept themselves relevant, who had poor national leagues, what happened?
Bothe are left backs

I CANNAE BELIVE IT
Low population being the main reason
Any remotely talented players get poached by England because you can't compete with our stupid wages.
It’s the culture and health of the country. Childhood obesity is on the rise and most kids would rather play fortnite or fifa than play actual football. We’re doomed unless something drastic happens
You can get them in the Wee Alba part of Rio de Janeiro, it's like Little Italy or Chinatown, only for Scots.
what about iceland
Iceland uses pagan meme magic.
FREE INDEPENDENT SCOTLAND
Scottish flag is so nice to look at
To be fair in Scotland being outside Is not very ideal. We need to import slavs who are used to swimming in cold lakes for fun
>American fifa 19 merchant
ha..
hah...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Why are Slavs used to tough weather but not Scots?
After the English dominated them, they went from living a hardy lifestyle to living in council estates eating chippy grub.
Because Scotlands not even really that cold. Barely colder than england unless you want to live on some deserted mountain where nobody exists.
quick rundown on scottish slags?
this is the only right answer. puro and venom'll be the death of the nation
Celtic are good at least.
Apathy, alcohol, culture

Had no idea these even existed. Why do we have zero ties to Scots that migrated abroad like the pakis and irish do
We do.
Sounds comfy.
>Scotland FA thinking of hiring Bruce Arena
Not only are you shit you're also a bunch of retards who dont want to improve. How did you even stumble upon class players like McTominay and Robertson recently?
Like what?
Exactly like the Irish and Pakis.
kek you’re an idiot, gear is a slang term for H
You’ll never hear someone with Scottish ancestry in another country claim they’re proud Scots. That happens all the time with plastic paddies in the US and pakis here (although they’re much more malicious about it)
Incorect, kiddo.
Leave the house more.
Definitely a smelly rangers fan.
>leave the house more
How would that open my eyes to foreigners being proud of their Scottish heritage?
>smelly rangers fan
?
no, it's not, not on the east coast anyway ya fudd. smack, junk, h, are what heroin's called. gear, ching, cooncil/puro/pure
Gear can be used for both but generally refers to coke.
never heard of h being called gear desu, but I dont frequent those circles. ask for gear and 99/100 I bet you'll get coke
Sold their future by getting dabbed on with the Darien Scheme, such was their butthurt at the mighty Anglo. They're trying it again now by, pathetically, attempting to rejoin the EU. Hoping to destroy their own country (for what it is) and hoping that's enough to finally destroy the heroic Anglo (it isn't).
And they only have a population of like 5m, meaning only 2.5m are men, less again are within the age bracket of being able to play, and those who are, just like those who aren't desu, have serious addiction problems. As well as being mentally and educationally subnormal.
All things considered, Scotland is an unflushed toilet of a country and, frankly (not the Jew girl in the attic), I don't believe even we have enough Poles to fix this particular plumbing problem.

The scottish league has some of the best names and logos. Hearts is top tier when it comes to team logos
gear is not slang for alcohol though is it, you scumdee bitch
Youth players sacrifice development for the status and money of a big club. All the Scottish lads, and moreso england lads, will resent me for the following but I am actually more of a Scotland fan than England fan. Thank fuck this is anonymous i wouldn't dare tell anyone, I was raised in England but my mums side of the family were originally from Lockerbie. top English youth players can generally carve a good career out in the premier league and the best make it. It's not so true for Scottish players, they make the move to bigger teams far earlier in their development. Players like Ryan Gauld, Robbie Muirhead, that young lad that went to Chelsea earlier last year, the lad who went to Leipzig and is now on loan at rangers, they move too early, lose confidence and lose motivation when they get paid mega cash and aren't good enough to play in the first team. They should stay in Scotland until they're in their early ready to move, or move to a club where they know they'll play. Ryan Fraser, Robertson are good examples.
There are only a few million people in your shitty country
I mentioned Robbie muirhead, look at his Twitter, that guy is depressed
As a Scottish man living in USA, your concern is ignorant and worthless.
>Wee Alba
that's funny.
those three define what Uruguay is about
it must me somethin else
a scottish family lived on my street. like actually scottish: red faces, accents, green cards. their lives revolved around alcohol. garage full of kegs, kegs in the hallways, and the basement was a makeshift pub. if a local restaurant had a bar, you'd see the father through the window.
they loved alcohol the way evangelicals love jesus. framed pictures of pubs. all sorts of promotional merch from distilleries.
eventually the wife moved out, and guess who they brought in as new mom? a local bartendress. it was a scandal but they didn't give a shit.
i thought the irish were the boozebags but the scots are the real deal.
we all die
you just have to pick your poison
i mean, look at Rockefeller he lived 103 years, he had 25 transplants and the best medics in the planet
my grandfather lived to 98 and eating salty leberwurst and bündnerfleischall and drinking beer every day until the day he died
Because they are colonised by wankers
The entire British Isles are alcoholics keep up boomer.
>tfw you'll never get to see scotland make it out of world cup group stages ever again
would be so much fun to experience even if they crashed out.
Let's be honest, the only things the Scottish are good at is drinking, fighting, tossing big fucking logs, and drinking inhuman amounts of Buckfast.
we had some world champions in snooker, darts and we're pretty good at curling ok.
Is bowls the most comfy sport?
not enough milk
I love Scottish Premiership
Scots are pound for pound the greatest darts and snooker country in history.
wow, so pretty important?
>We
fuck off
And having meme independence

even outside of Yea Forums, yanks spend their days harping on about "oh my family is from X/Y/Z, what about you man" as if its hard to find out your heritage
next world cup is gonna be the Brexit World Cup
England, N.Irn, Scotland and Wales all fighting for a place in the finals
England - Scotland finals, after england fucks off Argentina in a 2-1, while Scotland has to fend off against Gibraltar and Lichtenstein, after the surprise introduction of a 64-team cup
As an outsider I'm wondering if Brexit is actually gonna happen?
it legally has to
how much or how little we brexit probably depends on how loud the public are desu
personally, I want WTO standards, since its just the simplest way, then we can go and broker deals with the rest of the Anglosphere
but it seems that out dogshit parliament dont want to do that, and even worse some of our Scottish MPs want to force another fucking indieref
They are not far off from their Welsh and Irish cousins. I think it's just their shit urban culture (especially in Glasgow).
Doesn't feel like May wants to Brexit.
Do you feel support for Brexit has increased, decreased or stayed the same since 2016?
May 100% doesnt want a brexit, she was a remainer, and it was a bad idea to give her the job in the first place
I'd say support has stayed around the same levels, but it's got a lot more heated of an issue than it was before
if I gauged it'd be like 10% care about leaving, 10% care about remaining and the rest of the 80% just want SOMETHING to be done already
Sounds fucked. I think at this point you'll probably get teh WTO standards in October though.
What part of UK are you from out of curiosity? England?
And for the longest time the Scots were the only decent side out of the three.
Anyway, all the best irish are english born. The scots hate the PL, and that's why they're not as good nowadays.
10miles from the border
What? 10 minutes away from waht border? Scotland? Wales?
The economy seems to be doing pretty well over there but then again Brexit hasnt happened yet so I guess we'll see
This is bollocks lad and you know it.
both uruguay and croatia have fewer people than scotland
neither of them have a 1:100 heroic dealer ratio though
>the Scots hate the PL
It’s the most watched sporting event in the country
Why are we shite? Cos every other weekend when I went to the pitches some cunt would threaten to stab me. I revel in the fact we're pish
what are they even exporting? oats?
Whisky and kilts.
based and jambopilled
Because they're weak pussies with a victim complex
Wales are objectively better at football and rugby than Scotland with about half of the population.
tbf so are slavs
>wow, so pretty important?
Indeed. Darts and snooker are the biggest sports in the UK. The 1985 Snooker World Championship Final is still the highest ever rated sporting event on British television.
Darts players are rock stars. In modern pubs, the blokes ain't talking about Fagnaldo vs. Missi or the "Prem." They're arguing about Jocky Wilson vs. Eric Bristow, the PDC vs. BDO, and pounding the table in disgust about how the Dutch are taking over darts.
>yanks spend their days harping on about "oh my family is from X/Y/Z, what about you man"
I don't know why people like you are so sensitive about this.

Scotland hasn't even won as many snooker world championships as Derbyshire
Things should be on the up in the next 5-15 years. Our approach to youth development has been behind the European standard - even at Rangers and Celtic - but both clubs (and others) are starting to catch up.
at least we make the best whisky in the world
Poor coaches.
Rangers will have to abandon their youth development in the coming years because of their lack of finance
Its England with 50 million less people. What do you expect?
I dont know why you feel the need to associate yourself with towns and cultures you've never experienced, never will experience and you only claim to them is a far distant relative lived there over 100 years ago
You're no more Scotts or Irish than Mohammad from Syria is Dutch
*runs really fast and does nothing else*
Because you can't rely on England to help you out like with everything else.
>gear
huh, here we call it "gasoline"
sounds based as shit maybe i gotta move to scotland
You're gonna get it too. SNP aren't giving up, despite them losing shitloads of votes because Scotland is fed up with them.
a League of Ireland XI would genuinely beat Scotland..and Ireland for that matter
scotch tape and plaid patterning
We’re so fucked
There's too much fucking space between everything in the country, it's too spread out to have a concentrated area of training, ideas, talent, development.
I'm from Aberdeen and fuck me, you compare it to Manchester and travelling from one place to another is like going on a safari
Then how come Russia does better in international competitions than us?
But why go from being 1/4th of UK to 1/28 of EU?
