You couldn’t buy a Trelleborg shirt in Burnley for love nor money in the 90’s.

It's a Scottish thing. I'm sure the same thing happens down south

No, it really doesn't.

So? If England win they'll return them and buy France shirts.

Scotland should be more concerned at how a country 20% smaller than them has reached a semi final of a competition they cant even qualify for!

Much like Wales at Euro 2016.

Too dignified to care either way.

I'd never ever want Blackburn to win ( unless it meant handing us, promotion or stopping relegation for us)

I'd never go to the trouble of buying their oppositions shirt ever. Simple as

50 quid to declare you don't like another country/club?

Far too classy.

Sounds like they have achieved their objective of winding up the English. If the situation were reversed and the Sweaties were in the semis I can genuinely say that I would want them to lose, and lose badly. I can also genuinely say that i would not be wasting £50 on a foreign football shirt but each to their own. As for the Sweaties as a nation, they voted for dependence on the English and that will always be their default position. In this instance they are dependent on the English giving them a bit of football interest in their dreary, alcohol soaked, drug addled, cholesterol fuelled lives.

Too dignified to care about Scottish football success or lack thereof, but not dignified enough to not give a **** about Scottish people buying Croatia shirts.

Have you always been this full of ****? Is this how your parents taught you to be?

The Scots must be the saddest race on earth. They get their chance of a complete break from the English who they hate, then they neither have the balls or confidence to vote leave.
Scotland will always be Englands bitches

What a complete and utter non story, like the Glasgow sports shops were full of Croatia strips in the first place !

As a 50 something Scot, I would have no problem with England winning the World Cup if it weren't for the media. Think Southgate and his players have conducted themselves superbly during the tournament but the media........Lineker, Wright and as for that **** Piers Morgan who isn't even English in the first place. Having said all of that going out and buying a Croatia top is just SAD.

Good for them, hopefully they'll be out wasting another £50 on a France shirt tomorrow, (or maybe even a nice Belgium shirt if it goes tits up tonight)

Mind you, I guess the Scots can afford it, not having to have spent any money following their own team in the World Cup finals for the past 20 years ;)

I'd happily buy and wear a Trelleborgs shirt. I suspect I'm not alone.

Well just to let you know, Blutes will be backing England to the hilt. He's a bigger follower of them and Man Utd than he is a Dandy!! :|
On the other hand, a Croatia win tonight would be enough to bring Rumps back from the Brink!

To be honest, on more than one occasion in the last 22 years or so (since first seeing their magnificent shirt at Euro 96) I've been tempted to buy a Croatia shirt. I love the design.

Too right I've had to use it before.

However, where as you, Rileybobs, have noticed the repetitive nature of my retort. Time and time again, imploding turtles head, has failed to cotton on. And repeats the same idiotic, attention craving, nonesense. Thus getting the exact same answer from me.

In doing so, it proves my point.

“The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results.”

This hits the nail on the head,it's not even the fact they couldn't qualify,they couldn't even make the play-offs,both Ireland's at least reached the play-offs.Denmark and Iceland have performed creditably in recent tournaments,TBF the Scots have done well at youth levels,it's making the step up,now McLeish is back perhaps they might grace a major championship again.If they did qualify i suspect most fair-minded English folk would wish them well. ;)
