faraway saint Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Thursday sees the start of another attempt to qualify for a major tournament. Kazakhstan up first, KO 3:00pm, live on Sky. We then rapidly move onto San Marino on Sunday, KO 5:00pm. 6 points please then we can relax till June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornwall_Saint Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Top two teams automatically qualify. So ideally for me, Belgium and Scotland take those slots. I would expect it’s a straight battle between Belgium, Russia and Scotland for the two places. San Marino shouldn’t cause any problems for these three, but any points dropped against Cyprus and Kazakhstan could have huge implications.

faraway saint Posted March 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 The only thing "wrong" with Scottish international football is the lack of success. The whining and hankering back to the good old days is a pointless exercise. Things change, not always for the best, but change for lots of old farts isn't acceptable. Qualifying for a major tournament, like any football team, will see the majority of moans disappear. For every old fart that doesn't like it there's a young person who loves it.

faraway saint Posted March 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Quite a number of players that have played for Scotland were not born in Scotland. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Scotland_international_footballers_born_outside_Scotland It's the same rules for every country, a bit of a nothing issue TBH and has been going on for years if you look at the names.

whydowebother Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 Sadly, the squad available to us at the moment is nothing short of a disgrace.We lack quality in every department.We have no stand out players.When watching Scotland in the past, it was TV on , a few beers and watching intently.Now, tv & float about the hoose etc doing other things and glancing at the tv on the way past.There is nothing enjoyable in recent years watching Scotland, that’s not likely to change scraping 1 goal wins over low ranking nations Not overly fussed for watching Scotland these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whydowebother Posted March 21, 2019 Report Share Posted March 21, 2019 I cannot think of anything whatsoever that Alex Mcleish could say that would in any way mitigate this awful performance today by scotlandSt Mirren have a manager in charge for 25 league games & Saints are rooted to the bottom of the table People make excuses for some managers and not others, but bottom of the table speaks for itself no matter who it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whit? People enjoying themselves rather than wallowing in self pity? The authorities must be informed immediately. Mobilise our "heroic" armed forces. This can't be allowed to continue.
