    Andy Goram as well. Absolute embarrassment of an advert. Some folk will do anything for a few quid.

    It's only cos we're pish. Even Wales and Northern Ireland could qualify, but not us, of course. Everybody else will be enjoying it, whilst for the majority of Scots, only England failing would be cause for celebration. I hope England, Wales and both Irish teams do well, which is obviously an unusual point of view.

    To be fair, this is probably the best Wales side ever. They're much better than us.

    I've no problems with Wales or the Irish sides, good luck to them. England winning it would be insufferable, though.

    They seem to have an unhealthy obsession with Scotland.

    My mate is a manager with Willie Hills. Apparently Paddy Power have a good customer base up here hence why we seem popular with them.

    I`ll be in Galway for one of ROI`s euro fixtures and know for a fact that with that being my first trip over since last weekends events, my inlaws are going to have to try to concentrate on the game while I babble on incessantly with great Scottish Cup anecdotes. Jokes about Scotlands non participation? They won`t get the chance

    I actually thought it was going to be an irn bruv advert first time I saw it.

    I didn't mind it, thought it was actually quite funny if I'm honest

    It'd be better if it wasn't the same tune as an ex England world cup song.

    That's brutal. I know it's meant to be a parody, full of stereotypes, but the anti English sentiment makes me cringe the most. Win, lose or draw, I could care less about England, but it's stuff like this that make us look obsessed.

    Wonder what Goram got for doing the ad? A free £50 inplay bet on first goalscorer with Paddypower?

    It is meant to be a parody of "vindaloo". That is why it is the same tune.

    It pokes fun at ourselves more than it conveys anti-english sentiment. I quite like it.

    The advert wont add or detract from that. Only winning on the pitch will. We don't look like doing that any time soon.
