You have shown a rivalry up to 1985. A wee while ago. That rivalry went long ago.

You think a rivalry of a century, in the oldest international, in the most-played international match, just disappears cos one of the teams slips off? Until four years ago it was still only 45-41 in England's favour.

Scotland only rarely lost to England in the first 50 years of the rivalry. It was still a rivalry, we weren't like, "you're not good enough for us, we're gonna try Uruguay and Austria instead."

We're the two biggest countries on this island, we've played each other over a hundred times and we've a pretty even record. That's why it's a rivalry.

Celtic are currently rag-dolling Rangers every time they meet and Rangers haven't been competitive with Celtic, or even finished 2nd to them, for what, 6 years? You think that rivalry is over too?

I know you feel the need to defend what you said, but really, you should chuck it.

What an abysmal result for England. Colombia have been appalling and to let them back into it is criminal.

I know. Great, isn't it.

Yerry Mina has been superb tonight, surely Barca can't be thinking of getting rid of him?

He’s been pretty rotten for them.
