  1. Yes. Either or. But definitely not derisory. 👍
  2. Is that to do with the fact no fans are allowed in? Certainly SMTV isnt normally allowed to broadcast on a Champions League night.
  3. No doubt this will be another game we won’t get to see as it’ll probably be rearranged for a Champions League night.
  4. Hardly the end of the world. Isn’t he just cover for Tait?
  5. Ach I’ll be back to my rosy cheeked optimist self Balfy when we gub Motherwell 6-0 at the weekend.
  6. I might be getting carried away, but I don’t think it’s beyond us to win all 3 games next month.
  7. Aye but if we had it wouldnae have mattered because they’re not a team of any note 😉
  8. Ha ha. So on that basis they’ve only beaten one team of any note too. 😘
  9. I can’t see the “pressure” stat there. I also can’t see the stat that quantifies how much bother we were in for all their possession and attempts at goal. Absolutely zero of which troubled our keeper. I’m not denying they had a few good chances, but so did we and I genuinely felt like we weren’t going to concede.
  10. Also depends on how you define “teams of note”. I take that to mean teams of our standing or higher. if by that you mean teams you wouldn’t ordinarily give yourself a chance of beating, then I wouldn’t even put the Czechs in that category. Out of curiosity, genuine question because I haven’t, have you evaluated the 5 Czech wins in the same way you have ours ie who did they beat?
  11. https://twitter.com/jmcginn7/status/1316659827691659264?s=20
  12. Pick our 3 most important players and that’s who it’ll be. 😩
  13. On reflection I think you’re maybe being slightly harsh on that point. You have to talk about the opposition in terms of where we currently sit as a team. On that basis I’d put Slovakia and probably Israel too in the teams of note category. Completely agree though on Czech C Team, Kazakhstan, Cyprus and San Marino and out of those only San Marino (and at a push Kazakhstan) did we beat comfortably.
  14. Good post. Starting with the stats they are very misleading (other than of course the possession stat). 6 shots on goal but not one save of any note for Marshall. Balance that though with the acknowledgement that of the 12 other attempts, 2 of them were brilliant chances that they squandered, and perhaps another two that you’d put in the very good chance category and on another night, another team may have taken one or two of those chances. For the most part though, their possession didn’t hurt us. Also factor in we too had a couple of great chances. Fraser had at least one in the first half, McBurnie hit the woodwork and there were a few other great openings when the very final ball let us down. Agree with the rest of your post completely. I’ve already stuck a score on us. Only got 9/2 though because I use Willie Hills. I did a quick cost/benefit analysis in head about how long it would take me to download another app, register and deposit cash and concluded that my time was more valuable that the extra tenner I’d get for the additional half a point. 😃
  15. In fairness you’d argue that Dukla Pumpherston are better than us.
  16. Ha ha. Much as I like the sentiment. No we didn’t. Well, not in their prime anyway.
  17. We’ll have to agree to disagree on that one Bud.
  18. David Marshall is and always has been a great keeper. I’m going to make a bold statement here. if you go back to the mid 00s when Gordon was in his prime and our back up keepers were McGregor and Marshall, I don’t think there has ever been in the history of international football, a team that has had 3 better keepers available to them at the same time.
  19. I think that’s harsh tonight PB. I think Scotland provided plenty entertainment tonight. Created some great chances in the first half with a really positive performance and second half entertained us with some brilliant defending and the odd chance on the break. I for one was entertained tonight from start to finish.
  20. Is that like having wood but in a less excited way?
  21. If oor form doesnae improve I’ll be a hanging basket.
