THE big kick-off is still a couple of days away.
And we don’t even know if the Euro 2024 opener will end with a win for Scotland.
But the Tartan Army are already in party mode in Germany – and have roped in a Sky Sports legend as an honorary supporter of Steve Clarke’s squad.
Around 250,000 Scotland fans will travel to Germany over the coming days and weeks, with many jetting out today to the cities of Munich, Stuttgart or Cologne.
Among them will be various broadcasters, journalists and media personalities – including Ally McCoist, Joe Hart and our very own Gordon Strachan.
Another favourite with fans is Jeff Stelling, the former Sky Sports presenter who now hosts the Breakfast show on talkSPORT.
The 69-year-old was spotted partying with Scotland supporters on the streets of Munich this afternoon, joining in with a sing-song in his honour.
Around half a dozen punters roped the TV icon into an impromptu rendition of “There’s only one Jeff Stelling.”
The veteran broadcaster posted a video of the group on his Twitter (X) account, with the caption “Love the Tartan Army.”
He is seen in the middle of the group as they swig cans of beer outside a strip of bars in the German host city.

Hundreds of punters have already lined the streets of Munich ahead of Friday’s big kick-off.
And for those at home, the video perked up their excitement for the tournament.
One said:” Love this. My first genuine wave of excitement for the Euros. Need to go and get the sticker book now…”
Another said: “Fabulous.”
A third fan said: “Brilliant mate, all the best! Mon Scotland!”
Another fan quoted Stelling’s former Sky cohort Chris Kamara, saying: “Unbelievable Jeff!”
