    Although I think the pink kit is a mess, Scotland do have history of playing in the colour...

    "Navy and white would eventually become Scotland's established colours but not before other combinations were tried. In 1881 the team turned out in the primrose yellow and rose pink racing colours of Archibald Primrose, the 5th Earl of Rosebery, an important Scottish Liberal peer and devotee of the turf who became one of the Scottish FA's early patrons."

    I agree 100%, I was just adding some historical context.

    The tartan strip can phuck off as well & the white sleeves.
