faraway saint Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 0-1, all about the points, although the 2nd half was MUCH better. Well done the manager again for getting a reaction from the players at half time. Roll on November. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slarti Posted October 13, 2021 Report Share Posted October 13, 2021 How is the draw done for playoffs. Is it based on FIFA rankings? Can we offer Rod Stewart to do the draw? I read through it today, not straightforward but I THINK we are seeded, although, as you can see, at this stage I wouldn't like to pick any team. Was reading a thing on Sunday about this. As you say, we will probably be seeded. There are also two teams from the Nations League thingy that go into the playoffs and one if them is likely to be Austria (apparently). The seeding is done on the group performance. Chances are we will still be against teams that are ranked higher than us, though.This is from wiki:Play-off stage: The 10 group runners-up would be joined by the best 2 Nations League group winners, based on the Nations League overall ranking, that finished outside the top two of their qualifying group. These 12 teams will be drawn into three play-off paths, playing two rounds of single-match play-offs (semi-finals and finals, with the home teams to be drawn), with the 3 path winners qualifying for the World Cup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maboza Posted October 13, 2021 Report Share Posted October 13, 2021 Depends on a lot of results over the last 2 round of fixtures for the seedings so hard to predict. We currently sit in a seeding position but I suspect we will end up needing a point from the Denmark game to be seeded in the end.

bazil85 Posted October 13, 2021 Report Share Posted October 13, 2021 Predict: Scotland will comfortably beat Moldova and take a point off the Danes in the last two matches. Shooty in for seeding 🙌 COYS (Scotland) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably best to just put me on ignore. Anyway, regarding the game, I couldn’t stay up to watch last night and thought I’d try I player today. No coverage,lol. Don’t think I missed much anyway.The six points gained might edge Scotland into a play off position, so who knows they may qualify for the finals. Need a change of personnel if the do, mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted October 13, 2021 Report Share Posted October 13, 2021 So, after the dust has settled our record of only losing one game from 8 is very satisfying, especially after the disappointment of the Euros. Our slow start is a concern, the first half against Denmark was abysmal, and the last couple of games not much better. On the plus side the manager and players deserve great credit for the turn around in the second half of the three games mentioned above. We've managed to turn games that we would have drawn previously into wins, a massive difference in our confidence and points tally. Friday 12th November, can't wait. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statistics are not predictive. But the strength of the Scottish team is much greater than Moldova, because the level of soccer in general is higher. Therefore, in the Moldova-Scotland match the score will be either 0-3 or 1-3. But I could be wrong, don't listen to me 😁 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
