It emerged last night that Alex Salmond is to seek permission from the International Olympic Committee for Scotland to field its own team in the 2012 Games in London.

Scotland's new First Minister is to hold talks with the country's main sporting bodies within the next 100 days to draft a formal application.

Separate representation at the Games has long been an SNP ambition, with Salmond believing that Scottish sport has been in Britain's shadow for too long.

Good idea,
We have our own team in virtually every other sport anyway.
