    Scotland used to produce some real talent. i remember in the 60's/70's the top league was packed with them.

    We had Blacklaw, Lochhead, Morgan for instance.

    Dave Mackay, Denis Law, Souness, Dalglish, Bremner etc etc.

    When Celtic won the European Cup in 1967 I believe that every player hailed from within a few miles of the ground.

    What has happened up there?

    Well... in 73 you joined the EU or the European Economic Community as it was called back then. Of course it could be a mere coincidence
