This is a non-story. The flag dropped in the middle of nowhere, no one was injured and basically nothing happened.

As a slight aside, every other nation in the world would think it was great to see such support for their country - for reasons best known to themselves the English are embarrassed by passion for their country. I think it is great that this flag is being paraded around - I am Scottish by the way! All the whiners just need to get out more - may I suggest a trip to the pub later today to cheer on your country in the Quarter Final of the World Cup against Portugal?
