ah yes, the traditional scrabbling for places that shows how far Scots and Irish travelled in the 19th century just to get laid...

I think it probably does, it was good enough for the Irish in the 90's

actually, and very ironically, my great-great-great-great-great-great-great grand mother was actually a Dutch immigrant who came to Dumfries & Galloway along with a boat load of other displaced family members and founded the village now known as Barr (the family name was de Boer)..

so I am about 0.15% Dutch...

no, really!

Your grand parents are scots Firebreather... what about you ?

Please guys, be what you are. Not because you want to be in, that all the excuses are good.

Bottom lad is myself and Evil Git I know for sure have scottish parents which makes us dual nationality there a couple of pure scots aswell, I have also just found Haggislad1 who is pure scottish so thats 9 scots.

And for me Steves grandmother being scottish makes him part scottish, therefore eligable.

i can't believe all this hoo har

just cause you lot are afraid one more team means you are less likely to win!

Srry guys was away for the holidays.

Great that this looks like getting of the ground and i'm in as a pure scot, well mother is Irish but we don't talk about that.

Only moved to England as an adult to steal their money, shag their women, and drink their beer so can't get more scottish than that
