Deinonychus Jun 2019 8:18pm, 2 Jun 2019 231 posts	Quote Pin Deinonychus No. England didn’t play Scotland in that time. Unless you’re meaning during the annual series, the last such game was at Celtic Park in 2014.
Bazoaxe Jun 2019 8:21pm, 2 Jun 2019 14,687 posts	Quote Pin Bazoaxe Correct D. Prior to that it was in 1926 at Old Trafford
Deinonychus Jun 2019 8:27pm, 2 Jun 2019 232 posts	Quote Pin Deinonychus Have googled the answer to Swittle’s original question (so won’t put it here). But the game wasn’t between Scotland and England.

Deinonychus Jun 2019 8:34pm, 2 Jun 2019 233 posts	Quote Pin Deinonychus No. But one of those countries is right.
