just wondering how the rest of u thought about the non Scottish players playing fur Scotland eg. Sullivan, Allexander, Stockdale etc. Sometimes i think thet if u have smelt a bit o heather or tasted whiskey then u are in the Scotland sqaud and u have players who were born in Scotland like Colin Cameron who cannie get a game.

As long as they consider themselves SCottish and give their all I dont mind. Granny rule takes it a wee bit too far though I think.

well you look at the French team 9 players were born outside of France,
I want the best team that plays for Scotland. If it means Several players that arnt Scottish so be it!
I would rather have Maloney and Hutchison in the midfield rather than Cameron
The Granny Rule as well as the 5yr foreigner rule (Sergi Balatacha JNR did this) increases our Squad and options
Cameron will get the chance to prove himself along with Rae and Miller Wolves Vs LCFC Dicov, Davidson and Elliott on that side,
So Sully has a Grandad thats Scottish he is proud to play for Scotland
As is Matt Elliott I met him and asked him he finds it an honour to play for Scotland!!!

Alexander doesnt even have an ENglish relitive!
Stockdale is part of a premeirship defence and would be one of the first names on the sheat for me
Pressley isnt as good im sorry but that is a fact...

Neil Sullivan considers himself 100% Scottish.... The day after the E*****d game at Wembley he turned up for training at Wimbledon in his Scottish rugby shirt.
If you ever speak to him about Scotland, it is 'we' this and 'us' that, and I think his wee lassie was christened with a Scottish name as well.

Have never really been a fan of The Scottish granny rule heard today that Colin Cameron is out for about 6 weeks with a knock have always been fond of colins ability and feel he could do a job for Scotland as I think he has had few good games for us before
