Berti Vogts
The team is also sometimes referred to as the Scotland Future team, a concept initiated by Berti Vogts. The team competed in the "Future Team Cup" in 2002–03 and from 2004 to 2006. Following the departure of Berti Vogts in 2004, Scotland's next manager Walter Smith stated his intention to stop playing these matches due to fixture congestion and the number of player withdrawals. Since 2006, there have been four official B internationals played by Scotland.
