Acording to a recent email from TACC (Tartan Army Childrens Charity) there will be a new Scotland Away Football top for our match against the Netherlands on March 31st 2008.
3rd Prizes x 5 - The new Scotland away top, as worn by the team in Holland
No Pictures have surfaced as yet of the new top, and no other mention has been made of a new top coming out.
Hopefully there won't be a repeat of the maroon shirt disaster when we lost against Georgia away.
A new top at this stage is nothing more than a money making exercise dor Diadora.

Just as a reminder the closing date for tickets for the Netherlands V Scotland match is this Friday, the 13th February at 9pm.
Remaining tickets will then be offered to those on zero points via a ballot. Further information from the SSC is exected on how exactly this will happen.
Scotland managed to secured 8,000 tickets which is 3,000 more than we're entitled to. This may meen that we have to allocate more tickets to the Dutch when they visit Hampden later in the campaign.
