HALF AN HOUR TO GO!

Am at friend's house. The TV is on, and nerves are reaching a point where people are already hiding under cushions.
City centre was mad. Flags everywhere, every other person wearing a Scotland shirt. Lots of kilts, four or five bagpipers on Sauchiehall Street alone. Everybody was just buzzing. Didn't notice many Italians, until I went into Birthdays and for some reason there were half a dozen on them in there.
There were rumours that a few hundred hardcore ultras had come over? That was the only negativity I noticed, with a few people saying that if they were looking for trouble they'd get it. I really hope the atmosphere stays good.
OMG SO EXCITED.
They've done so fantastically well to get this far. They are heroes, whatever happens now.
BUT WE CAN DO THIS. BELIEVE! MON SCOTLAND!

This is Scotland's last match, but does Italy have one on Wednesday? Will they not make it if they lose today ... I hope so!
