guinness Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) First half dire. Too many backwards passs. Noone will take on an opponent. Both teams poor. Edited October 11, 2020 by guinness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 That was a decent performance tonight. It’s been a while since I said that. Still lack a punch, but comfortably the better team throughout and for once looked solid in defence too. Credit where credit’s due. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was as solid a performance from a Scotland team as I have seen in years. No thrills and got the job done. I would take that every time.

Wee Craigie Broon was criticized for the same thing.Decades later, he might just get the credit he deserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 Aye, amazing what a win can do for confidence. The first half was poor, not a shot on target but the 2nd half was much improved. It should be remembered Slovakia "nil" are not much of a team. The next game is probably make or break, the Czech's will be after revenge after we beat their reserve side last month. A draw could be enough to hold them off, a win and we'll be in a great position. We'll still have 2 away games after this weeks game, one game at a time.

We are in NO position to be talking about any other team in these terms. It was a good win against a good enough side. End of story. Let's not forget that this side has qualified twice for major finals since we last turned up. There's no need to be putting "aye buts" next to any game we win.

I think you'll find they have not won a game in almost a year so I think, while we are not a top class side, we should be looking to beat a team that can't score a goal when we're at home. Qualification for previous tournaments means nothing as we used to do that on a regular basis, it's about the present squads. 👋👋👋 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 Still a chance we could be playing the reserve side on Wednesday............................ The Czech Republic have named a 32-man "reserve" squad for Wednesday's Nations League tie in Scotland - in case their regular players are again ruled out because of coronavirus. The Czechs have 18 players for Sunday's tie away to Israel after three tested positive and two others were ruled out. The squad will travel to Prague on Monday to be tested again. Scotland beat a new Czech side in Olomouc last month after the hosts were hit by a Covid-19 outbreak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 I'd take a draw right now, 4 points from the Czech's would have been acceptable before the group started. As long as we run about will be enough for some. @oaksoft #easilypleased C'mon Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
