Pretty much agree, although in it's later years the tide had turned against TITP as the line up changed and it started to attract a much higher number of neds, but then TRSNMT came catering to a middle class audience and normal celebratory service was resumed.
Anyway, over the last 20 years the snp and labour have tightened their grip on football and alcohol; you had the licensing law reforms of 2005 which got tougher up here at a time when england were loosening them, you then had the snp wanting to raise the off sales age limit to 21 ( their reasoning was bizare and quite condescending) and then implementing minimum pricing.
we've also seen things like the offensive behavior at football act as well as more police involvement in fixture allocation ( the old firm can't both play in glasgow on the same day unless they play each other which is almost always a sunday lunch time)
Anecdotal evidence says that in England, going to the pub s enjoyed across a wide variety of social classes , up here going to your local is a working class thing, the middle class might go on occasional nights out but they mostly get wine from the supermarket and sit at home
