Sir Chris Hoy said in May 2013 that it would "take time" for Scottish athletes to "establish themselves in a new training environment", and indicated that the good performance of Scottish athletes in the Great Britain team would not automatically translate into that of an independent Scotland team.
Sir Chris Hoy izneo je mišljenje maja 2013. da će škotskim sportistima "biti potrebno vreme" da se "naviknu na novo okruženje za trening", čime je nagovestio da se uspeh škotskih sportista u okviru britanske ekipe ne mora automatski preslikati u uspešan olimpijski tim nezavisne Škotske.
