I do appreciate a top level game and especially one where new experiences depend on the outcome. Thus it is with Scotland. Not content with riding a wave of footballing success, they stuff it up against some unheard of team (for me anyway) just to make it that bit harder to beat one of the best teams in the world and get through to Europe (I thought we were already in Europe. Must be a footballing thing). Normally Scottish football fans are expert statisticians. Every 4 years the tartan army get out their calculators and slide rules to plot the critical path to world cup qualification.</p>
