You know, while we all celebrate Guy Fawkes night every year (Way to hold a grudge!) I really think this is sickening.
I understand it's meant to be a bit funny, but it is only encouraging the Anti-English feelings that too many Scottish people have.
Some of my best friends in life were English and I used to just cringe when I heard the things fellow Scots would say to them.
Bad form. Bad form.

You've not spent much time in the American Midwest. Around here, things like UM vs OSU are one of the most heated debates there is. Cities burn over that. Well, Columbus does. A2 never seems to have the riots, or didn't when I lived there. You can be 200 miles from home, see a person wearing your home town rivals shirt, and start a insult battle up, (which really confuses the people standing around you) and walk away happy. (That far from home, after the insults you end up talking about 'back home' and don't actually fight)
Ohio/Michigan can be a strange place sometimes.
