Elixir Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I stand corrected. That teaches me to listen to Euan Murray. He's a torn-faced c**t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramer Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Do big teams like England not command a fee for coming to play a friendly? That seems to me the most plausible reason for the tickets being more expensive than a much more important game v Ireland. I could be wrong though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordopolis Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Team for Tuesday? I'd go for: Gordon Whittaker Martin Hanley Robertson Brown Fletcher Russell Maloney Anya May Bring on Naismith, Bannan and Mulgrew later on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairney Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I watched the game down here in Yorkshire - lads down here at halftime saying if Scotland play like the first half on Tuesday night, England will get a "doing" Even the English see their team isn't up to much.

CityDave Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Not really a friendly this. The result will mean more than giving players a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aladdin Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Last night was what mattered. Would like to see boys like Johnny Russell and Stevie May getting some game time, dont think England are going to be taking this too seriously and everyone will be looking to avoid injuries. The SFA are taking the piss with the prices and im not forking out for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SFA are taking the piss with the prices and im not forking out for it. I would like to see both get a chance see how they get on. I don't know how seriously the English will take this and possible their top players will give this a miss to avoid injury in what might be a meaningless friendly.

Gianfranco Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I can't justify going to this at those prices. I'd like to see Martin, May and Russell getting decent game time but wouldn't change too much from yesterdays starting 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Probably go the same way as the Wembley game, in that we'll match them for 80 minutes then Hodgson will just fling every single striker he's got on the bench onto the pitch and blooter balls into the box in some warped version of percentage football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray Mints Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Any word on Steven Fletcher's injury ? edit to add or James Morrison's illness? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordopolis Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 If we can't trust Martin in a game like this, what's the point of having him in the squad? Personally I think he's never cut out for international level - way too slow and cumbersome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray Mints Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Martin's a reasonable footballer but he's been really poor in the last two games off the bench, after looking decent against Nigeria. Strachan clearly likes him and people are writing him off too soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Martin just isn't good enough - I think he's like a striker version of Gary Caldwell. You could tell he has some degree of ability, but calamity always seems to be around the corner. I might have picked it up wrong, but I thought I heard Strachan more or less rule Fletcher out of the England game. If he's not fit then I'd push Naismith up front and bring Morrison (if fit/well) or Dorrans into midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strachan clearly likes him and people are writing him off too soon. I didn't see anything from him even in the Nigeria game. That's why I found it so odd/contrived that after that match wgs labelled him as one of 'our three main strikers' Strachan has been wrong about a few forwards before - Griffiths being one guy shown perhaps too much faith for the Belgium and Croatia games. Wish we had a fast, goalscoring, strong striker that swept all the others out the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
