The Tartan Army were named World Cup winners yesterday.

The International Association for Non-Violence in Sport are giving their trophy to Scotland’s supporters.

It’s another glowing testament to the France 98 campaign and the second time the Tartan Army have won such an accolade.

They earned FIFA’s Fair Play award for their behaviour at the European Championships in Sweden in 1992.

Scottish supporters’ spokesman Martin Rose said: "It is very good that we have picked up an award.

“The fans have been great ambassadors for the sport and for the country.”

The French enjoyed the tartan invasion for a largely trouble-free two weeks - in spite of an outrageous ticket fiasco.

Many of the travelling legions believe that if they could have bottled that great feeling and brought it home along with the cases of Bordeaux’s finest, we’d be the most successful nation in the world.

One rule & 1 rule only when following the Tartan Army

Have no idea what’s going on here, but I love it.

Also quite psyched for the first major tournament for the Netherlands since 2014! We’re gonna be crap, but at least we’re here. GL all!

Should easily win your group, might put 5+ past north Macedonia.

Hopefully, but a lot (unfortunately) depends on the form of the day of Memphis Depay, because we don’t really have any alternatives up front,

brilliant save by the turkish gk

Italy are very nervous :grimacing:

Jermaine Jenas just said Italy needed “little balls”, but then worriedly corrected himself that he meant short passes. Political correctness gone mad.

The beep are err difficult, we stopped their hires because of it, they use black cabs only now & the drivers refuse to talk to them as every minor digression is recorded and sent.

Maybe, maybe not… The Scottish people deserve success even if its for our fair play and jovial fans and not the football.

This is sick. Robots taking jerbs away from young ball girls/boys.
