CAMELOT FANTASIES

I couldn't agree more with everything that you've said. What I find troubling is that England could be so transparent in their hypocrisy. They've had a love-hate relationship with Andy from the beginning. Kicking him when he's down and praising him to the heavens when it benefits them.

That's why I was glad that Andy stood up and let his voice be heard. He made the right choice. The heck with them! At least he won't be a man without a country. His allegiance is to Scotland. Why should he play PC and be at the beck and call of England? Like you said, were the situation reversed they would have done the same thing.

Andy rocks! He gives no one a dangling carrot to lead him astray. He's his own man, and I love that about. It amazes me that people don't see his strength of character.

Very well said, TT. England is being quite transparent and not the first time. Andy is truly his own man. He doesn't care about his image nor does care about who thinks what of him. He doesn't have an 'image' to uphold because he has never put out one. He says what he feels right in his heart. Unfortunately, we live in such a pretentious world where fake personalities are more educated, advised and appreciated.

But Andy is a rebel - a riot even. He's changing things. He's doing things differently - the way it should be done. He's even gone and hired a female coach for a change and what a shock that was to sexist society. As Gandhi would say, "you must be the change you wish to see in the world".
