Critics have insisted the Scottish National Party are doing everything they can to ensure that the independence referendum does not ask Scots whether they would like to be independent.
Gryce McBoyd, Labour leader said: “The SNP know that the Scottish people do not support independence so they need a plan B if that goes wrong.
“In this case, that Plan B will be to constitutionally permit violence against Jimmy Hill for his racist attacks on Scottish football tactics, in particular passing.”
Salmond denied the claims, insisting that he was simply offering the Scottish people a full range of options.
He said: “It would be outrageous to suggest that by quite reasonably giving Scots their first ever chance to officially register their anger at Jimmy Hill is a way of softening the blow of defeat.
“For years, the Scottish people have had no choice but to listen to Jimmy ranting about crap Scottish goalkeepers and unfairly labelling Scots as Brits, which they in fact are.
“If we are going to have a referendum on the future of Scotland and the fundamental purpose of my party – which I am completely relaxed about – then we may as well try and legalise beating up Jimmy Hill as the historical scar of his constant attacks on our culture have been with us too long. “
That Scottish independence plan in full:
:: Queen stays head of state
:: London remains capital
:: BBC keeps broadcasting
:: Scotland pay fug all in taxes
