Scotland's international record is often criticised on this forum. ---And quite rightly so.--- Both on the international Rugby and the Soccer competitions
Do I take the huff - NO !!!-----because it is just good sporting banter between friendly nations.
And yes, I have to admit that on the International events , Scotland is not so good at Rugby and absolutely rubbish at Soccer.
So I always give credit where it's due. Hence my admiration and praise for the England Rugby squad and their supporters.
However :-
England's international football reputation, in events like Euro 2016, has unfortunately suffered badly due to the atrocious behavior of some of their fans. That was the point I was making.
Why should this be ??? Same country. !!!

"Why should this be ??? Same country. !!! "
Think the answer to your question K is same sport, not same country, given that we're now hearing that the behaviour of fans of Austria, Hungary and Portugal have also caused their federations to be charged by UEFA.
Anyway, back on track, it's was a great performance by the England Rugby team, a magnificent turn around after recent disappointments!
(And good news for another Brit ( ) as Andy Murray seems to be hitting form at just the right time!)
