If you're thinking you want to hear about something good, well, listen, Scottish footballers have been shaving each other's backs.

Oh, goose bumps.

Speaking of good stuff, that's what football gets you.

It does feel like ages ago.

Yeah, it's brilliant.

So Scotland, who you heard about in that clip, who have qualified for the World Cup, of course, this summer, are playing Bolivia in a friendly at exactly the same time England are playing New Zealand.

Bolivia have not qualified, but Scotland are taking them on in a warm-up game.

Now, last weekend...

They beat the aforementioned Curacao 4-1 in a pre-tournament friendly at Hampden Park.

Curacao went 1-0 up in the game before getting a man sent off.

Dick Avercar was back in the dugout for Curacao and he looked amazing.

He just looks like a gigantic, relaxed Dutch Buddha.

Yes.

You cannot fail but to be 50% intimidated, but 50% reassured because he's such a presence.

And he was very unhappy with the sending off for the Curacao player.

And then he goes, saw it.

But the two reasons he was sent off, he was annoyed.

One, because it was a red card and a friendly.

Which is kind of an interesting discussion point, because I do think you do see referees be a lot more lenient, encouraging substitutions, blah, blah, blah.

But the second reason, and I think the main reason, is that it looked really soft.
