Now he wants a Scot soccer boss

SO Gordon Brown now wants to jump on the bandwagon following our success in the Beijing Olympics. He not only wants a Great Britain football team in 2012 London Olympics, but another Scot to be in charge, namely that well known Labour die-hard, Sir Alex Ferguson, after concreting over most of our playing fields, failing to provide for our crumbling sports halls and swimming pools which are closing by the hour owing to lack of funding.
It's amazing how dour Gordon has suddenly become interested in British sports (at least old Teflon played a decent game of tennis). This latest show of interest along with a fading Golden Balls is nothing more than a sham to try and increase his popularity in a fading political career. Surely enough Scots in Parliament sending this country to the dogs is all we need right now. Stick to politics Gordon, leave the sporting side to people who know what they are doing.
As for a Great Britain football team it will never get off the ground, God knows the grossly overrated pontificating England footballers are bad enough, but I cannot see any improvement coming by including the Scots, Welsh and Irish in a Great Britain team, I am afraid you are on the way out Gordon and all this ideology will do nothing to further a fading career.
