They think it's all over...

... it is now! Scotland have unfortunately just lost 2-1 against Italy in the Euro 2008 qualifying match at Hampden Park. A shame, as the match was very enjoyable - real "edge of the seat" stuff. Even though Italy scored their first goal within a couple of minutes of the start of the match, there was hope of a fight back. There had been great anticipation all across Scotland throughout all of last week that the national team had a chance to qualify. Needless to say, the result has been met with huge disappointment. Even as an Englishman, I was sorry that Scotland have not qualified - having lived up here for six years, and having made some truly great friends, I do feel like an adopted Scot. Strong words for someone born south of the River Thames!!
