I guess I was an early adopted Scot due to the influence of my dad, who took me to Hampden a few times. I was also a Leeds fan and the Scotland team had plenty of Leeds players. However when I grew up I struggled to comprehend the anti English sentiment of the support, my father and his brothers demonstrated none of that .That said when I landed in England from a Forces upbringing abroad I had a hell of a time for supporting Scotland from school mates..actually got in a few scraps.
Nowadays I just want all of the home countries to do well.
