^ Theyre just jealous. I am scots and nice to see your all spouting the usual nonsense.

 

 lol, I was just kidding.

If you want the full story, my Aunt's boyfriend is Scottish, and it was my great Aunt's and Uncle's 50th anniversary the night before. A couple of Americans had flown over to celebrate, and my Aunt and her boyfriend came down to celebrate it.

The conversation quickly got on to cricket, and Murray, and one of the people there said "As an Englishman, I do not support Murray", and when questioned it was because of his anti-English comments.

One of the Americans then asked what this anti-ness betweem the English and the Scots was, and someone said it was rivalry. I then piped up (jokingly) "Yeah, it's because we're better, and they're jealous". Everyone, laughing, turned to the Scot on the table, who was bright red, and laughing, said "Yeah, I guess it's true".

I then went on to explain how the English-Scottish rivaly is very similar to the US-Canadian rivalry.

Nothing is serious, if I truely believed it, I would never have said it.
