Scots aren’t happy as ridiculous Fifa rule means they’ll wear pink against England

Scotland face England on November 11 at Wembley in a crucial World Cup qualifier.

In their last qualifier, Gordon Strachan's side lost 3-0 away to Slovakia, and they are currently fourth in Group F with four points from three games. They face an uphill task to even finish second and make the play-off place. A loss to their auld enemy in London and their chances of reaching Russia could be gone, and Strachan could lose his job, with the pressure becoming intense around his position following the defeat to Slovakia. So, for a must-win game, Strachan's possible last stand, and a match in for which there will be a fervent atmosphere against their old rivals, Scotland will go to battle wearing this kit: A frankly ridiculous Fifa rule has dictated that because Scotland's home has white on the sleeves, it clashes with England's home strip, and they therefore must wear their away strip. However, Scots aren't happy that their team will be wearing pink for the game, and it's easy to see why. The home jersey clearly doesn't clash with England's white strip.   https://twitter.com/sweirz/status/793159148443697152 https://twitter.com/MrKSmith24/status/793163486729830400 https://twitter.com/Greenrhino3/status/793158976796037120 https://twitter.com/dhmck/status/793157550158020608 https://twitter.com/tycoch7/status/793157404217212928 https://twitter.com/_WeAreScotland_/status/793157054223572992 https://twitter.com/Jamo__/status/793156481533239297 https://twitter.com/gf1987/status/793168831296499712 https://twitter.com/jonnytommo78/status/793168092532707329 Colm Parkinson is joined by Paul Rouse for a heated debate about Sky Sports' five-year GAA deal and an exclusive chat with AFL star Zach Tuohy on the new GAA Hour.
