The people of Scotland including politicians and even the media have displayed strong support for Glasgow's bid to host the 2014 Commonwealth Games. However, Glasgow's bid has a serious problem, so serious in fact, that it could prove to be fatal.
Scotland's bid suffered a major blow today, and that blow came directly from Scotland's Daily Record, which is touted as, "Number One for Scottish Sport."
The Daily Record led off with a shocking headline entitled, "THIS COUNTRY'S LEADERS ARE LETTING US ALL DOWN .. JUST LIKE THE BIGOTS."
The Record openly questioned the chances of Scotland winning the right to host Euro 2016, and the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
The following is an excerpt from the Daily Record:
WHAT chance now of Scotland winning the right to host Euro 2016?
And the 2014 Commonwealth Games? We can forget about becoming major players on any of these stages now the truth about Scotland is out there.
The best small country in the world? It does have a nice ring to it but ask UEFA, who have just taken a look and recoiled in horror at the state of play in our national sport.
They had to avert their gaze and must have felt they were looking back through a dank tunnel to a primitive time.
