The current system that 2 bookings means you miss the next game is beyond a farce.

We are in a group that has 10 matches, 5 other groups only play 8.

Not only that, the bookings carry over into any play off games.

We have 8 players sitting on a booking, what a feck up it could be of 2 or 3 of our key players miss out on a one game play off match for a booking picked up in the previous group games. 

A dilemma for Clarke, it's looking like we need a pint to be seeded so he'll probably have to play his strongest side when we really could be doing with "resting" players to ensure our strongest team plays in the one-leg semi final. 

Pish! 

Eight of his men are one booking away from missing that semi - Andy Robertson, John McGinn, Billy Gilmour, Jack Hendry, Scott McTominay, Adams, Kevin Nisbet and Stephen O'Donnell.

Apparently some countries are lobbying FIFA to get the rule changed on the basis that it’s f**king ludicrous. Fingers crossed that happens but when did FIFA or UEFA ever do the sensible thing!!

Just watched the highlights, Scotland are hopeless. Defence poor and nothing up front. Already out of the World Cup. Long past caring , quite honestly but still dispiriting. Manager should be removed after the Austria defeat.

THIS still makes me laugh. :lol:

Can't wait for your next post, along the lines of "it's not on cooncil TV, I don't really care, manager is hopeless" etc 🤡

FFS, he beat me to it by seconds. :byebye

We will miss Patterson big time going forward, that apart, the confidence must be high, let's get in about them, we gifted them the game the forst time, our first half performance was dross.

The Danes have quite a support at the game. 

Just seen a local lad with his son, that's what it's all about, memories, hopefully good ones.

You can see why the Danes are a top side, even without the ball they press high and we're finding it difficult to get any real space.

Still, much better than the game in Denmark. 

 

Last 10 mins we've been finding some space, and almost scored, certainly the better team over the last wee while.
