You could argue that they have been given to much money. Scotland has less than 10% of the population, but has been given more than 10% of the money.

If Alexander Graham Bell had not invented the telephone we wouldn't be having this forum for starters.

If it wasn't for Scotlands inventors the World, never mind England would be in a sorry state so..............................

Griff obviously didn't know who invented the tyres for his car.

Imagine him driving to work with wooden wheels.

Not sure what tyres has got to do with a telephone?!? I guess it's easier to switch subjects  ;)

I could of course raise the stakes and argue that if it wasn't for the English a lot of Scots would be stuck in a swamp somewhere in Panama.

;D ;D ;D

Just remember Griff, It took a Scottish King to unite Britain.  I wish he hadn't bothered now. :evil:

So back to my post, why should Scotland get a bigger percentage than say Wales or N Ireland?
