And when you are done looking at this site for the Scots input on football world-wide, here are two more.
For those who literally want to trace on the ground the local development of Scots and Scottish football in our own and other countries there is the newly available and ever-expanding site of:
The Scots Football Historians' Group
And on Scottish sports history in general but inevitably including fitba', see Andy Mitchell's inestimable:
Guyana is an intriguing country. It is both West Indian by history and South American by geography. Its people are mainly in part African in origin and in part East Indian. Therein lies a story and not one to be proud of. And it has been providing footballers, indeed, international footballers for, as I write, almost one hundred and forty years. It was, of course, not the first country outwith the British Isles to provide such players. As such it followed India, South Africa, Mauritius, Mexico, Australia, Sri Lanka, Canada and Peru so it was neither the first in Latin America nor even In South America. But then all those players had featured for England, as they still do in the form of Ruben Loftus-Cheek, whose half-brothers, Carl and Leon Cort have twelve Guyanese caps between them or, in the case of Peru, for Wales. Only one Guyanese has ever appeared for Scotland.
