I wanted Serbia to win the pen shootout.

I don't support Scotland anymore but I've never wanted them to lose, wanted them to lose that shootout though and was gutted they won it.

I was going to call the Saltire the Satire, but thought that was too obvious.

I find Scotland fans who attend games are generally made up of all the supporters of the wee teams so it gives them something to shout about. For example cheering on Scotland v Servia rather than Brechin v Annan.

In the 80s and 90s, I was a Scotland fan like most and even proud of the TA. 

For me, the split came in the late 90s, the TA became a bunch of smug-arses who believed their own hype, and started to openly show their anti-OF and esp dislike of us. For me, the moment was the day after being humiliated by Morocco 3-0, to pick up the newspapers and see headlines calling the team Bravehearts. I thought f this, they should have been ripped apart. And how pathetic we were to somehow champion them as heroes. After that, bar the 1999 games v England, I couldnt care and it remains so. After 2012, in fact, I actively enjoy a Scotland defeat or humiliation.

After 2012 far to much has happened for me to get back on board with the national team. 
 

100% only Rangers for me

Spew their Anglophobia in every sentence, then rail against the bigotry of the Old Firm..............

[Swagger 2,526]

A National side who’s fans boo our players ? 
A National side that contains Griffiths ? 
 

Fuck that. Rangers and Rangers only 

[cr3_bear 8,580]

Rangers represent everything I need for a football club and what I’m proud of with my country . 
 

the support which now makes up Scotland’s fanbase is as alien to me with their rampant nationalism as Celtic’s support with their republicanism. 
 

2012 and the never ending referendum question have damaged any interest in the national team beyond repair for me.

When I was a kid it was a no-brainer, you supported Scotland regardless of club loyalties.

To me it wouldn't feel right not supporting the national team.

Summed up my feelings on the subject to perfection mate.

Fuck them.

 

This clamour to get Rangers fans back supporting Scotland again because they have made a tournament is fucking embarrassing.

Half of them probably joined in with this at the time

Article is spot on.

Taking football out the equation, the Scottish football team has been hijacked by the Nationalist movement in a way that hasn't happened to say the rugby side. I find it off putting.

I do know fans of other clubs (from areas I've worked) who feel the same, namely Aberdeen fans and those from the far north Highlands (who support an array of random clubs), and most seem to feel making Unionist politics known at a Scotland game would get a negative reaction or potentially spark trouble.

Ultimately as a No voting, Rangers fan (and politics and football are seperate for me, I've lived and worked in England for large chunks of my professional life) - I've became utterly alienated to our national side. I'm sad about that tbh, but it is too far gone to be easily fixed.

Its embarrassing how much we care, and tbh the anti-English rhetoric our fans push isn't returned - indeed my experience is that many English fans, especially the more casual fans, wish us well. Most English see the Germans as the main rival.

Scottish Rugby hasn’t been hijacked by nationalists due to demographics. It’s generally followed by people who are a bit wealthier and middle class, and from my own experience tend to be more unionist

Too late for me but maybe my son can cheer them on in the future like l used to.
