Well, that was a fun Calcutta Cup. Here’s the update – the “try” has no effect on our current standing in the table this week. We just stand a little higher and of course overtake England.

This table is a parody. It reflects an alternative reality where Nic Berry awards the last minute Scottish try against France in Round 2 of the 2024 Six Nations. The motivation for creating this site is purely a therapeutic process to come to terms with what happened on that fateful afternoon in Scottish Gas Murrayfield.

As a Scotland fan I live in a world of ‘might-have-beens’ and this is now my shrine. 

Hopefully it gives other fans a grain of comfort as it has done me.
