Tartan Predictions of Doom


Recommended Posts

Which date will Strachan get the sack/resign?

When will we lose a game in the next qualifying campaign?

When will we be out of contention for qualification in the coming campaign?

Who will the Scotland faithful put forward as the next great white (or black, I'm not a racialist!) hope as manager?

Which player will be the Tartan Army's next scapegoat?

Not in a malicious 'boo! f**k off Strachan' way. Just to make it interesting. The winner gets a box of Quality Street.

- He won't.  I imagine he'll leave after this campaign is over when we yet again narrowly fail to qualify.

- England at Wembley.  Think we'll get a point in Slovakia

- The final international window, either the penultimate or the last game

- Someone shite probably

- Hutton and Fletcher will probably continue to be castigated for no real reason, and Rhodes will continue to get the martyr treatment

Right enough, it's only a 2 year deal. In which case, he probably just doesn't have his contract renewed. I'd go for that option too. Another failure to qualify and then offski.

Yeah, I just can't see them sacking him.  At least not publicly.  Could end up just being a "mutual consent" deal where they let it look like he walked to save face.  But that's only if we have an absolute shiter of a campaign and end up out after a few games.  One of two things is going to happen - we're either going to do our usual and be in it til the last few games, then fail "heroically" or we're going to reach the play-offs and then who knows.  In both cases, I doubt he'll stay another two years.  Could happen, but I doubt it.

To be fair, Hutton's pish; that's the reason he gets stick.  He looked like a lost wean whenever he played for Villa last year.

He's another one you can file under the pile of "good for Scotland, but would be passed over in a heartbeat if we had anyone better". But we don't, so he stays.

Could say that about a lot of players to be honest, why Hutton is continuously singled out for criticism I dunno. He does a job. Like you say there isn't anyone better, there's not even anyone close.

However not many have been given a chance ? Paterson next in line? I quite like Hutton. Attacking minded and not afraid to put his foot in.

It's been a few years now since Hutton was the Scottish Cafu. He was unstoppable back in 2008. Not so much these days.

Think Strachan will be gone early in 2017 he came in early 2013 when a wc campaign was gone, he will leave on a similar basis early in the new year

Too many same old same old playing, we need to take the hit and build a team from scratch.. Darren Fletcher, Steven Fletcher, Charlie Mulgrew etc etc etc just not good enough at any level.

 

So get rid of the players who remain the best we have and "start from scratch"?  Where should we start from and with who?  Just spouting completely unfounded pish doesn't really help much.

I actually agree with this, can see this all coming to fruition actually.........

 

I am mellowing on Steven Fletcher but I will never EVER be convinced that Alan Hutton is a good defender because he isn't and that is what he is ultimately in the team to do but as you always like to remind me if there is no one there to displace him then so be it.......

When will we be out of contention for qualification in the coming campaign? Secind game.

Who will the Scotland faithful put forward as the next great white (or black, I'm not a racialist!) hope as manager? Cathro.
