We Stand Together - Not As Catchy As
Scotland have managed to get a corporate motto as they work towards getting to the EUROs for the first time since 1996 The Scotland National Team today launches the UEFA Euro 2012 qualifying campaign motto: 'We Stand Together'. The slogan was conceived to unite the nation behind Craig Levein and his squad as they prepare to begin their Group I campaign with a double header against Lithuania and Liechtenstein. We Stand Together is all-embracing and promotes the collective effort required if Scotland are to return to a UEFA Euro Championship finals for the first time since 1996. Already, the 12 Scottish Premier League managers have done their bit by ‘standing together’ in support of Scotland’s quest and the launch will incorporate the Scotland supporters, the media and the country in general. Fans can stand together with the National Team by signing up to the official Scotland facebook page at www.facebook.com/scotlandnationalteam.The campaign motto is particularly relevant at a time when the SFA have initiated a review of the game in this country in the hope that we can once again compete regularly in major championship finals. National team coach, Craig Levein: “Everything we’ve been working on since I became national coach has been building towards this moment – the start of the new campaign. Every detail makes a difference at this stage, and knowing that excitement is building throughout the country makes us determined to get things right. If we stand together as a nation I have no doubt that it will give us the added impetus we need to get Scotland back to the finals of a major championship."Scotland captain,Darren Fletcher: “As players, it doesn’t get much more exciting than the start of a new campaign, and I know that people up and down the country feel the same. The Scotland supporters always give us 100%, and going into the Euro 2012 campaign it will be an honour to pull on the jersey knowing that the whole country is standing together with us.” Editor Ger Harley (ger@scottishfitba net)Admin Team (admin@scottishfitba net)This is Scottish-Fitba Net
