If it was England possibly but Scotland not a chance I would love to hear how it brings their profile up and why how they would benefit from it - please explain If you've played for your national team, against top opposition, it will bring your profile (and CV) up.

Marky Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 If we’re looking for a proven example of one of these charlatans, didn’t Matt Elliott come out at some stage and pretty much admit that he wasn’t arsed but International looked good on his CV?

According to an interview with Graham Alexander, Elliott used to take the piss out of him for supporting Scotland when they were team mates. Then Elliott got a call up, which wound him up. 'Before his first international call, Alexander said, "To be honest, since I started playing football, I've had two ambitions: to play in the Premier League, and to play for Scotland. I've been brought up supporting Scotland as far back as I can remember."' Edited September 16, 2018 by Bobby Russell's Lovechild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
