Yorkshire Tartan Army

So, the Qualifiers are finally upon us, and Saturdays game will determine whether Burley can continue the great form shown by Scotland in the European Championship qualifiers of the last 2 years. Lets hope so. I have heard it said its an easy group, but lets face it, EVERY game is key, as was proven in the Euro's with the 2-0 away defeat in Georgia.

With the Northern Ireland match now behind us, attention turns to the Macedonia and Iceland matches in just over a fortnight's time. As has been discussed on the forums, there is a couple of fans from the Yorkshire region who are travelling away but for the rest of us who will be here, The Sports Cafe in Leeds looks like it will be the place to be as we begin our journey to South Africa.

The waiting is over and the SFA have launched the new Scotland home shirt for the upcoming campaign. Not many surprises in the shirt with a fairly straightforward design although the most obvious change from the previous version is the white shorts and red socks, as opposed to the all blue version. Personally I like it, although there's not usually much to dislike about Scotland shirts. Discuss the new strip on the forum.
