It's highly unlikely given the number of people voting - plus the number of people voting would have to be an even number.
One vote either way would be enough.
That should be fun if it's really close as no recounts are allowed (I read somewhere on BBC).One vote either way would be enough.

Yes Scotland needs more funding then northern England as we are feckless
Or do you believe you are more deserving?
No, I don't think devomax is workable, I think promises of it are a cynical con. Or do you believe you are more deserving?
The Union is broken, I just hope we can end it neatly and humanely, today.

Edit - Found the wording on BBC
"Recounts will only be allowed at a local level and only on the basis of concerns about process, not the closeness of a result, according to Elections Scotland."

So burger voted no in the end lol and fluff cares not for the result unless it goes his way.
Devomax or whatever I suspect is on the table subject to mp's agreeing it which they won't if they want to be reelected so now we just wait an see.
By 7 am tomorrow I hope we have a resignation from one leader or another

Doncaster is technically still part of Scotland after it was signed over 900 years ago and never formally given back
Indeed - but to paraphrase Salmond "what are you going to do to get it - invade" 
In answer to other posters, wasn't it Frankie Boyle who said a couple of years ago that Mel Gibson had attained Scottish status - he'd become a racist drunk.
On a positive note, over here in Belgium the radio has been full of reports over the voting, interspersed with Scottish bands - with blasts from the past including Big Country and Marillion. Slightly disappointed not to hear Runrig!.

Marillion are an English band. :S
Ah, but who can forget their touching cover of Roud #9598 back in 1983:"You take the acid, and I'll take the dope, and I'll be stony'd before you
For me, and my true love, and the Drugs Squad as well, on Bonnie, Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond"
