Aberdonians don't get worked up about people coming or going from the city.

It's an inevitable consequence of our links in the oil industry.

We aren't that small minded. :snoop:
To you it might not change much, but Boksic above cares a lot about the Scottish NT and he has all the right to wish the worst to this kid who betrayed his country and decided to play for the USA.

Holden's parents, both American, worked for Chevron Corporation in the US before being sent to Scotland. His parents did not emigrate there, they were sent there on project for Chevron.

Rossi's parents emigrated to the US on their own will.

So no, it's not the same case.

Still, it was in Scotland where he started playing football and training and if he was born and lived in Texas, the chances are that he wouldn't have even known that there is such a sport.

McHolden is a traitor, imo.

Are you sure about that? I thought his mom was born in Scotland.

I thought his mum was born in Scotland and his dad was born in England.

You make it sound like they were sent to work in labour camps :D
