A SCOTLAND fan with a ticket to the Euros final had the perfect quip for a news reporter asking whether he could be convinced to sell it.
England are due to face-off against Spain in the final of Euros in Berlin on Sunday.
Ahead of the match, the ITV News reporter Rachel Younger was on the ground in the German capital speaking to England fans.
There was much optimism amongst their supporters despite Spain being the bookies favourite to win.

However, the most interesting part of the segment came when Younger spotted a lone Tartan Army member sporting a Scotland top.
"Amid the selfies and St George's flags, a sight to stun any England fan," said Younger.
"A Scot with a ticket."
She then asked the man: "Is there anything an England fan can pay you to stop you supporting the Spaniards and give up your ticket?"

Without a moment's hesitation the man replied: "Give us independence".
"It's a steep price," said Younger.
"It's a great price," replied the man.
The Tartan Army once again proving why they're the best support in the world.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
