As for the Scots, well they're a bunch of skirt wearing, haggis munching, caber tossing, porridge loving, sporran spinning, thistle whistling, ginger haired monkey men

Yep, although it sparked off the bitter rivalry with Everton after Liverpool FC changed their kit to red and Everton stole the Norwegian Blue as their own mascot

Amazing history behind the bird...
