Astounding stat................ Only won 2 from 19 friendlies..........................not sure about the draws. Yet won 15 from 21 real games. That's quite a contrast.

Well, what a bad night. Performance, pish poor. Energy, tragic. Hard to find any positives about tonight. Could have played all night and probably not scored. No need to pick out any player who was better or worse, as a team there was something missing, and the manager has to take the flack for that. Small consolation that our record in friendlies is honking. In real games, well, we have a completely different record. Still, this game must dent the confidence and hopes for the Euros, echoed by the response from the crowd tonight.

Decent effort from Shankland, nothing going for us, which happens when you're not playing well.

Got to be the worst performance, and if it stays 0-1, worst result for quite a time. Offered next to nothing in chances, most of the team look as if they have taken this game for granted. At least Friday, as bad as the final score was, showed plenty of promise in general play. A reality check and a dent to the hopes for the Euros. 0-1 80 mins.

Patterson, who I like, has been poor since early on. Slack, maybe lack of time on the park at Everton but he's certainly, overall, been poor in the first 45. People shouting for Shankland need to look at the overall play, Kane couldn't score for us at the moment.

First time in a long time I've heard the crowd be so pissed off, boo's echoing around Hampden. Need to really pick up the pace in the 2nd half.

Gilmour this time, gifts the ball away in midfield and NIreland almost score again. Time for some arse kicking at half time.

NIreland miss a sitter, what a disappointing first half after the excellent play against Holland. Hunners of possession, no threat at all up front. Too pedestrian and predictable. 0-1 44 mins.

Patterson, a catalogue of disastrous touches, gifts them a chance and a deflected goal. 0-1.

Who, in your wisdom, do you suggest we play instead of these two?

Bore off! Anyhow, plenty of possession but next to nothing to show for it. All a bit too slow/predictable and NIreland are quite happy sitting deep. 0-0, 30 mins.

Shankland, unluckily IMO, dropped. Not an easy task against the Dutch, much better to have played tonight.

Fancy a comfortable win tonight. 3-0 Get right intae the Irish fcukers.

Your lack of any sort of awareness is stunning. .As usual you NEVER mention any of his previous wins or how well he plays. The same brainless views you post on St Mirren. Nip over to P&B and share your opinions..................they also had a high opinion of you. Andy Murray has revealed that he suffered a 'full rupture' of an ankle ligament during his defeat in the Miami Open on Sunday. The British legend fell to a 5-7, 7-5, 7-6 loss against Tomas Machac in the competition's round of 32 before later taking to social media to confirm the news. In a post on Instagram, Murray wrote: 'Yesterday towards the end of my match in Miami I suffered a full rupture of my ATFL and near full thickness rupture of my CFL

It seems that the supporters who are turning up in bigger numbers that many a year are quite comfortable with the "beautiful game" and there's an element that will find anything to whine about come what may. If it wasn't VAR it would be referees........................oh wait.

When you posted this I didn't think there was a chance Goodwin's position was in doubt but after reading the Dundee Utd supporters views since then you might not be faraway. This weekends gamer is MASSIVE for United and Raith.

Thanks for your input. 🤣🤣🤣

There's absolutely no point in trying to reason with him as he's simply a waste of oxygen.

It's funny, no matter how well Norrie does he doesn't do it for me. Can't really pinpoint what it is but I just find him dull, as a player and as a person. Anyhow, Murray due on closer to 6pm tonight.

Big victory for Shapavalov, maybe coming back to the form he had a few years ago.

You pointed the finger at "some posters" which I corrected. No need to thank me.

Sorted, best to stick to the facts when pointing the finger.

This is more like it, a good win against a player he lost to fairly recently, and in straight sets. (Look at the score in the tie break) Next up an unseeded player who, dare I say it, Murray has a great chance to beat and move into the last 16. (Maybe not quite a great chance, this guy beat Rublev in the last round) The bookies, what do they know, have Machac favourite, just.

🤣🤣🤣
