There was a bitter taste left in the mouth when Scotland met Austria back in 1963.

Nearing the end of the season and still looking for excitement.

Just how many of the thousands that travelled to Wembley in 1928 are still following fitba? We can but dream of crowds of that magnitude these days.

A personal view on one of the unsung heros of the game.

October 2000, Singapore-It's the day of the England v Germany World Cup Qualifier at Wembley. To watch the match, we go to the Manchester United superstore in the main shopping area of Orchard Road.

August 2000, Salvador, N. E Brazil-An old Portuguese colonial city which is the capital of Bahia state. Cobble stoned streets, beautiful architecture, street acts and music pounding out of all the bars and restaurants.

Travel the world, see the sights, sample other cultures, taste the local cuisine!! All very worthy aims when on a six month Round the World Trailfinders ticket taking in Brazil, Argentina, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand.

The old man of the site considers club and national team loyalty this week.

Memories of Hibs and Scotland keepers from the past are the topic of this week's walk down memory lane for our Old codger.

The new (or rather old) writer was on a roll and we decided to let you see another of his efforts. This time he considers TV.

Challenged to recall past adventures on foreign fields ScottishFitba looks back to trips to Wembley. Always memorable, rarely dull and full of fun (and some drinking involved. Well, rather a lot of drinking when I think about it).

Age shall not weary them - well in the case of Saudi Arabia - it actually helped back in 1989.

We need decent commentators to tell us exactly what we are watching and fly the flag. Scotland have not been blessed in my lifetime. And - yes - that is a long time!
