Just been reading a few of the threads and thinking about upcoming games. I will struggle with Flower of Scotland to be honest due to recent events but hopefully in time I will come round. I was previously all for a new anthem but I suspect it is here to stay. I also am fairly certain that there will be loads of Yes flags and there will be some people who wish to make some kind of statement following the referendum. This would be a real shame in my opinion. I probably speak for a few people when I say that part of the reason I follow Scotland is because I follow a smaller provincial club and have no interest in the tit for tat bigotry and political angles that the old firm are known for. I also hope that anti English sentiment does not become prevalent as surely the yes campaign was not about this at all. The whole stand up if you hate England was dying out recently which was good as it was all a bit immature IMO. I would hate this to return What are everyone's thoughts? Are we destined to become no better than the Rangers and Celtic support by promoting politics and a 'cause' at the games? Can we not support our team on the pitch in the right way and leave our political baggage at the door? As folk have said in other threads the political stuff at ibrox and park head have turned people away. I don't want the Scotland games to become a yes or 45 rally every time we play. I would possibly consider not going if it did. Surely Scotland games are about everyone coming together regardless of club allegiance and political opinion? PS before anyone jumps the gun. I am a Yes voter.
