      Is that the proverbial 'we' or can you actually get a team together? Toon army V the borders rugby fans? You have to be from the area to play, and Scotland being the current holders would host the match. I'm sure there would be plenty of borders Scots turn up on the day for a chance to defend a piece of Scotland from England once more. They probably wouldn't be sober, but they'd definitely turn up. Can the same be said for the Geordie contingent though? Would you seriously get even a bus load to come out to a cold wet field, only to get rightly beaten up for daring to invade us again? Tell you what. You float the idea down the pub, maybe pin up a signup sheet on the notice board, while I inform the Scottish rugby federation and try to work out a deal for the TV rights.

    Why does it call its assembly a parliament? Why does its First Minister think he's allowed his own foreign policy? Questions, questions....

    Scotland does not own a field in England any more than England owns a field in Scotland. Still, an interesting little tale
