Scoop of the day


My favourite newspaper story from today is the Sun's report that bookies are taking bets on whether Terry Butcher will belt out Flower of Scotland at Hampden tomorrow.
bet365 have the England legend at 1/2 not to sing the national anthem in his first match as George Burley's No2 and 6/4 that he will give it a go.
Butcher, launching The Story of the Scotland national team children's book at Cameron House in Loch Lomond said: "I only know the first verse. Ill do it if it feels right."
The Story of Scotland is available from April 7 in bookshops, The Scottish Football museum and online and amazon.co.uk.

It was Burley that was struggling with the words to Flower of Scotland....

Yeah, I saw that as well. He appeared to be making up his own words at times.
