A picture of one of the famous/infamous Tartan Army, I would think. Usually on one of their mass jaunts to England, all to see a soccer game.
I had witnessed an all Scottish match at Easter Rd. Edinburgh in 1960. The two teams were Glasgow Celtic and Hibernian. Both with predominantly Catholic support. I still cannot figure why religion was brought into football.
Anyway, I was standing on the terraces, when I heard a hissing behind me. I looked back and saw person/persons urination on the empty space. I was over ten feet away though. Ah well, got safely on the long distance coach to foggy old London town afterward.
