Thorizaar Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 It must be getting to the stage where Scotland's European coefficient would be improved by the teams not taking part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the best team in the country FFS Absolutely. And yet some people still want to talk up our failed elite youth development programme. Celtic have the best youth scouting system in Scotland. They've invested heavily in their training academy. They've got a tie in with one of the SFA Football Development Academies. They've also had a long standing policy of PAYING transfer fees to other Senior Scottish Clubs to sign players as young as 12 and 13 years old to recruit them into their development programme. Yet still Efe Ambrose gets a game. You really do have to wonder what is in those academies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaksoft Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Nothing to do with money or bloody youth development FFS. This is all about attitude and right now our players are simply unprofessional in their attitude to their chosen careers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Scottish players seem to put in more effort to the way they look. Hair, Tattoos, Jessie Boots, etc ( Forrest was patting his hair in place at every opportunity last night, while having no positive influence on the game of football ) Very few have mastered their trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Dickson Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 For once Shull, you have a point. Too many players around Europe with the Billy Big Baws attitude. Look at Engerland Yes look at England regularly qualifying for major finals of international competition. If only Scotland had that level of failure. As it is our top clubs have spent all summer shopping for players playing in League Two in England and the pub leagues in the Netherlands looking for our leagues next batch of superstars for us to pay way over the odds to watch misplace passes as they struggle with their first eight touches. As I said you really have to wonder what the state of Elite Development in this country when club managers feel compelled to offer expensive contracts to foreigners they've watched heavily edited You Tube videos on.

cambiebud Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Stuart as usual deliberately misses the point. Yes, England usually qualify easily for tournaments. They have players on lottery win wages. Doesn't make them great players. Celtic and their Ibrox business partners throw silly money at salaries, relative to the average Scottish club, while hoovering up young talent from around the country. This takes potential players out of football and leaves a trail of possible players whose careers don't get off the ground. These young Scots are well paid for being 3rd choice behind some foreign average left back. Then year in year out Celtic realise that paying daft wages to average players is found out when they play against organised motivated teams in Europe. The nature of their support means that a new manager is required to bring big names in on even more ridiculous wages, and so it continues.The English situation is the same. I read the other day that Grant Hanley, yes Grant Hanley! was being sold for £24 million! Proof positive that money does not buy success Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard Hughes in BlueSuedeShoes Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) To be fair to Craig Gordon he must've been a bit wary when he lost the goal; he'll probably remember what happened the last time someone representing Irish Republicanism was in Gibraltar and put their hands up......
