@StephenFlynnSNP @bobglen1 Well we did invent the modern passing game! ... and gave it to the world 😉 #scotsfoundedfootball #scotchprofessor
@Flure1 @Damo259 @brazilegend10 @ScotlandNT @scottishkits2 Next they’ll claim to have given the world the beautiful game 🤣 #scotsfoundedfootball #scotchprofessor
@PASTA_Mick My sources tell me they aren’t lions (male or female) on the badge but leopards #moreenglishtales #scotsfoundedfootball #lionrampant is a REAL lion on a shirt
@PJG_Sport Well said but it’s the SFA filling their greedy faces not SPFL #blazerati #ourgame #scotsfoundedfootball

5/5
1885 professionalism legal in England
Early trickle south becomes flood
English concept disappears in favour of Scots’ Game
SFA refuse to select England-based players
England’s results begin to improve
Scots’ Game forms international template
#scotsfoundedfootball @gedboy58
4/5
Scottish concept of game varies in several ways
English clubs hold firmly to concept thro’out 1870s despite results
Into 1880s England’s northern clubs begin to integrate Scots’ players & style into teams
1883 first northern club wins FA Cup
#scotsfoundedfootball @gedboy58
3/5
Scotland forms its FA in Mar 1873
By then, FA had tweaked the “game it founded” in 1863 almost annually over a decade
Yet, Scottish teams immediately superior in terms of results

Is this something that the argument needs to make more of?

@gedboy58 What a simple yet utterly Brilliant summary of #scotsfoundedfootball #scotchprofessor #ScottishEnlightenment
We also founded modern football and then exported it ! #scotsfoundedfootball #scotchprofessor @gedboy58
Robin Williams on Scottish people inventing a sport! Magic.
4/4 Result … REGULAR heavy defeats at club and international level to Scottish sides until the Northern English imported Scottish players, Scottish style, and (eventually) Scottish rules.
Original London-centric FA, rules and influence faded away forever. #scotsfoundedfootball
@hipsway3 @mccormick13 I understand Miller’s game was restricted to an all white elite, whereas Donohoe played with factory workers in Bangu irrespective of ethnicity. So on all counts, Donohoe is the man. @gedboy58 has an excellent thread #scotsfoundedfootball which covers this and so much more.
@ESPNFC Football can't 'come home' as Scotland are now out of the tournament. #scotsfoundedfootball #ScotchProfessors #FootballsSquareMile
