[QUOTE="profitius, post: 574261, member: 41524"] They've around the same population as Ireland and Ireland have a more successful soccer and rugby teams and the big sport is Gaelic games.. I don't know too much about Scottish rugby but I do know they f'ed up when building Murrayfield. They spent all their money paying off its debt and that was at the expense of developing the game in Scotland. Also you have the borders who had a team but I think there was a load of infighting there and they got poor crowds. The Scots are making a comeback though. Glasgow are really strong now because they've built up a decent squad of players. Next step is attracting bigger crowds and once they do that the money will flow in. [/QUOTE]
