Think this sums it up.................

And yet Scotland made them look a whole lot better than they actually are. Munas Dabbur, Ben Sahar, Beram Kayal and Dor Peretz all had chances - Dabbur had about three - to score in the first half of McLeish's game of two halves. Diaa Saba, Eli Dasa, and Taleb Tawatha (with an incredible miss) all had chances in the second half. Israel had 25 attempts on goal. Only an amalgam of poor finishing, the kindly woodwork and Allan McGregor's excellence averted an unmitigated horror show.

They'd lost four in a row going into the game on Thursday. They'd been done 3-0 by Northern Ireland in a friendly last month. In World Cup qualifying, Albania went to Haifa last June and won 3-0.

I think the point before the match,  not afterwards,  was that Scotland's record away from home is not good.  They needed d to step things up but didn't. P

Portugal -1 are 12/5........................easy money? :wink:

Odds now 11/5. You need Portugal to win by 2 goals...you'd be better doing -1.5 on the Asian handicap, odds are 3.300

£10 on at -1 (12/5) gives £34

£10 on Asian at -1.5 gives £33

He was given a lifetime ban by the governing body.
Governing body lifted it a couple of years later.
A other example of governing body incompetence.

Looking back over Scotlands results in the last 6 years this was the worst result we've had in a competitive game.

As Billy mentioned, the Israel result was in the Iran category.

Similar to us losing to Raith in the Challenge Cup last Season.  :byebye

Seen a bus of Tartan Army supporters getting ready to leave about 12:30 from Arbroath.

Also seen a guy at the train station who had just returned from Israel, flew into Aberdeen, heading straight to Hampden.

These guys are KEEN.

 

There's a new concept for you.  Going to games.  Paying for travel and for tickets.

It'll never catch on!  Just put games on in empty stadiums and let us watch them on TV.
