The latest intelligence from North of the Border tells me that the officials or Airdrie United Football Club have egg on their faces this morning.


For their Remembrance Day fixture it was decided that they would run a tribute to the dead of two world wars on the cover of their match day programme against Livingston, with contributions going to Poppy Scotland.


Can you spot the unfortunate error?




The story is reported here and here. The second report is from the Daily Mail so you know it’s true.

Only a guess - are these the wrong sort of soldiers?

Edit: Oh ok, I see! I thought immediately there was something wrong about the collar on the uniform of the soldier in the foreground

Um, oh dear.

Alternatively, it's good to see them comemorate without judgement of nationality.
