I'm afraid the clincher was the fact that England are playing Argentina that day.
This brings up 2 points. The team are looking forward to this, against one of are most hated international rivals, and I really, REALLY don't want to be in Scotland if we lose! :oops: :no:

It was bad enough being in Lisbon when we lost to Portugal in the Euro's... :cry:

@piper1st - Really sorry you can't make the 12th, it's really difficult trying to find a date to suit everyone at such short notice. We should think about the "Scottish Spring Meet" much sooner to allow folk to book time off...
