London, Apr 16(ANI): England football fans will take a swipe at Scotland's failure to qualify for this summer's World Cup with quote t-shirt 'SNP: Scotland Not Playing'.
The SNP is England's response to the 'ABE: Anyone But England' t-shirts, which was earlier probed over racism claims.
"When it comes to sour grapes we decided we weren't going to be out-graped by our northern cousins," The Sun quoted an England website, as saying.
"We thought we'd return the compliment with our own 'SNP - Scotland Not Playing' World Cup top. It also goes along nicely with their very own Scottish National Party so we're hoping it might annoy them even more," it added.
Meanwhile, Scotland fans insist they were relieved that their England rivals have finally quit moaning and are up for a laugh.
"After their initial outrage at the ABE shirts, it's good to see the English getting a sense of humour," said Harvey Robertson, of The Famous Tartan Army magazine. (ANI)
