A case of "everyone is dressed better in old photos" even applied to the kilt too, with the terrible drab ashamed stuff you find at the average wedding now. But now that's even too much.Armenia couldn't handle a wee bit of rain, you should be able to handle a wee bit of humidity.
The Scotland squad will not repeat the show-stopping arrival of the 1998 team after the players decided against wearing a kilt before their opening World Cup match versus Haiti.
The Athletic understands the players were consulted on the option of following in the footsteps of captain Colin Hendry and his team when they arrived at the Stade de France to face Brazil in the tournament opener wearing traditional dress 28 years ago.

@Alicoh1@hauntedbottom Literally every homo knows stories about families from strict religious backgrounds who literally left the faith because of it, and conversely liberal parents who had their belongings on the street the next day
@JFitzCBB Our Ro16 fixtures aren't actually that bad, even our quarters aren't. Ro32 is tough but you could get a decent chance of a semi if you get past it
I have been too busy/distracted to focus on this and keep forgetting so didn't post a single bet until tonight. It was, however, an 8/1 winner, so that's fine isn't it.
One thing you could do, then, is to join the free channel. One or two bets every weekend and every midweek European night. First will be tomorrow. https://t.co/InG75wBBFA
The price for this has come in since it was sent out last night, but it is still value and is the next bet of the day for the World Cup. Plenty of prices which are still at large, though, in our free guide:

If we bet ยฃ100 on the reverse forecast, we'll profit ยฃ73 if it comes in. But if we split that across the two straight forecasts, betting ยฃ58.06 on Switzerland-Canada and ยฃ41.94 on Canada-Switzerland, we'll have the exact same bet and stake, and we'll land ยฃ88.71 if it comes in.
Are YOU ๐ซตbetting teams to finish in the top two/reverse forecasts at the World Cup? Well STOP if you haven't checked this first - you might be able to get a much better price.
@HowlingToad They've performed the worst, I've not adjusted them. I might look at them and Haiti and flag them for a manual upgrade since they've both added players. Annoyingly they went down to 10 Vs Scotland so it was hard to judge them
Rankings for the World Cup. (provisional, will be updated with pre-tournament friendlies, and adjusted for any big injuries/food poisoning outbreaks/Saipan 2)
@heat_ball Yeah, on the face of it I'd maybe agree - I think it's probably because of their last world cup where they outperformed and then have been declining very slowly since. There's very little in score between all the teams around that area though
@heat_ball Have addressed the USA objection - should be noted that this is an Elo model I developed, only manual input is adjusting some teams after the fact but only if it's something big that data can't capture (e.g. Kosovo adding loads of new starters before the qualifying campaign)
@exMalwa Same as the US. Two good players who never do anything when you watch them and then a guy who is the most hated person on a Scottish team that had a bad season, then just MLS
@nikicaga I think it has been genuinely shocking how much he's revealed that - although you could argue him lamenting not being back living with his grandmother did a lot of lifting
