Elixir Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36597199 Why has this clown and his pals not been utterly hounded out of their positions? An utter embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberDon Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 He's an incompetent, defeatist arsehole and the thought of him being allowed to ruin our 2018 and 2020 campaigns is sickening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Oh great another one where everybody throws their toys out of the pram instead of looking at things logically. 7 out of 8 good results in qualifying. In Gord we trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpoonTon Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I don't agree with some of his opinions, but I don't really see what's making folk so mad. We're a decent enough team, with a couple of major deficiencies (especially at centre half, where our options are beyond push), but we lack top quality players.

BFTD Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Who have we proven we're better than? Ireland, maybe, I guess? It would be nice if WGS had made a conscious decision not to talk about Scotland while the tournament was on, considering we're an irrelevance at this stage. He's coming across as a man desperate for excuses, whether you think he's the man for the job or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Well maybe Strachan should start pulling some decent players out of his arse eh. Or do something to try and make up for the supposed lack of quality. Something that many teams have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibeeJibee Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Plenty teams who qualified - and several who've made the knockouts - also lack top quality players. Against that background, and all 4 other British Isles nations making R2 (and Iceland, Slovakia and Hungary), he'd be better just saying nothing. Whether or not he's right... and it's hard to justify the comment that we're "better" than some of them based on beating Eire at home and some friendly results v Croatia... it's only going to get some people's backs up, and makes others look on bemused.

yoda Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 The mentality is fantastic. We just need to find the best system with the best players we've got for this next campaign. So three games to find "the best system" before finishing 3rd behind England and Slovakia. Then the inevitable "Well, if you ignore those opening three games it's a good campaign". Rinse and repeat.

AberDon Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Oh great another one where everybody throws their toys out of the pram instead of looking at things logically. 7 out of 8 good results in qualifying. In Gord we trust. A draw against Ireland is not good enough, they're shite and he fucked it by playing negatively. Drawing at home to Poland when we needed a win is a shite result as well. And there is never an excuse for losing to Georgia, there is no 'logic' behind backing Strachan after that aberration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erskjne Bridge Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 My! Never thought Strachan could make an even bigger pillock of himself! Get him to f**k! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Like he's done the whole time he's been in charge, Georgia away aside? He really hasn't though. Which is why we're incapable of getting results above our level. And in the case you mention, even going the other way. We played well against both Germany and Poland and threw points away against both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are ROI's, NI's, Hungary's, Albania's, or Romania's great players? Plenty of mediocre teams made it but, thanks to Stachan, we stayed at home.

Ira Gaines Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Drawing with Ireland wasn't a problem for me, despite the shit performance. 2 points from Poland and none from Germany doesn't get nearly enough focus. And only three from Georgia is worthy of the punt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
