Scotland fans skirt World Cup rules for kilt bags

The Tartan Army are set to descend on the United States in their thousands for Scotland's first participation at football's biggest global event since 1998. However, tournament rules only permit certain types of bags into stadiums. The sporran, a pouch traditionally worn by Scots in front of their kilt, had initially been deemed too large to meet the criteria. The Scottish Football Association confirmed on Wednesday that after positive talks with FIFA, the kilt accessory will now be allowed into stadiums.
