McLeish loses the honour of the tie


It was surprising today to learn Alex McLeish had resigned from his post as Scotland international football manager, seemingly to join Birmingham City. Not because he has chosen to leave his home nation's top footballing post to take part in a Premier League relegation dogfight.


No, the reason we were shocked to see McLeish quit the international scene was that he will now no longer be able to wear his rather fetching Scotland tie (as seen in the picture). How he can leave this tie behind is anyone's guess.


Former Leeds United and Liverpool midfielder Gary McAllister is favourite to be the next wearer of the magnificent tie. A tie similar is available here.
