Scottish National Anthem

Scotland The Brave has been played at the recent Commonwealth Games when members of the Scottish team win a medal. Flower of Scotland is played at Football and Rugby matches. The First Minister has suggested that we adopt a single national anthem. We've had this debate before though, various newspapers have proposed it particularly when the Scottish parliament was being established in 1999. For some suggestions, see the Scottish FAQ - anthems page. Might be good to get one anthem if the Commonwealth Games come to Glasgow. Anyone for No Gods and Precious few heroes?
