faraway saint Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Oh, the calls about our defence, and Patterson in particular, on Saturday made it very clear that Patterson, as I mentioned back in the Euros, isn't a very good defender at this stage in his career. The clamour for him to be included at that stage was misguided, to say the least. It's a pity we couldn't clone O'Donnell and him as, again as I've mentioned, O'Donnell is a decent, not great, defender but is poor when up the park. Patterson is the opposite, but will get better and, IMIO< in a year or two will be a great player for Scotland. Tonight is a game we should certainly play Patterson, I doubt we'll be under much pressure at the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, just to reduce the your glee, Austria play Denmark tonight and then Israel next. I would suggest 4 points from the next two games would be enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 While I'm certainly not taking ANYTHING for granted the possible opponents, IF we are 2nd, are not looking that easy TBH. Fingers crossed we can get to that stage then let the doom and gloom merchants have a field day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway saint Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) With Hanley back, not Beckenbauer but CAN defend, I can't see them scoring so it's 0-2 for me. McTominay back into midfield is also a bonus for me. Edited October 12, 2021 by faraway saint 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway saint Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Christie already looking like he's having a mare of a game. McTominay not far behind. FFS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway saint Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Jeezo, great chance for the Faroes, Gordon saves the day. 0-0, 24 mins. And another decent chance for them, great cross, poor header TBH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My prediction of 0-2 was over 90 minutes. You do know what a prediction is? Anyhow, now that Happy Harry has appeared it's certainly been a disappointing first half. Very few glimpses of the form shown in the 2nd half on Saturday, Clarke has to work his magic again at half time.

guinness Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Very poor first half. Tierney on the wing looks our best st at the moment to get decent balls into the box. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rascal Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Poor performance so far against a very disciplined team. More possession but fewer shots on target than the Faroe Islands. Fraser not at the races so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Been better in the first 5 minutes than the whole of the first half, only a foot away from getting a penalty. Better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 McGinn misses a great chance, great cross from Fraser right on his wee potato head, straight at the keeper.

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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
