Poet of the Macabre Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 In typical Scottish fashion, let's focus on the negatives. I saw someone mention in the Lithuania match thread that losing that game would have been the worst result in years. There have been some absolute shockers over the years but what takes the biscuit as the worst of the lot? I'd say either of the defeats in Georgia or the draw against the Faroes.

oneteaminglasgow Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 1-0 loss to Belarus at home was pretty bad from what I remember, although I was 11 at the time so that may have been amplified in my mind. And Norway away with the Caldwells show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Minertaur Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Maybe not the worst performance but the 5-0 against Portugal in the early 90's was a sore one. Ally McCoist broke his leg in the match. Can vaguely remember the game but probably just from highlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Norway away with the Caldwells show. The 4-0 defeat away to Norway was the worst I remember. We were an utter shambles that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I was 8 when the 5-0 Portugal game happened. I remember watching it til about 3-0 then went to bed. Remember McCoist getting stretchered off. The worst for me was losing 1-0 at home to Norway in the WC2006 qualifiers. This wasn't the Iwelumo match, think that was a few years later.

Stellaboz Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 The second defeat in Georgia. The first time was abysmal but there was no excuses for it happening again. None. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 The Iwelumo match was 0-0. The 0-1 you're referring to was when McFadden was sent off for saving the ball on the line with his hands. Anyway; Faroe Islands 1-1 Scotland Faroe Islands 2-2 Scotland Scotland 2-1 Lichtenstein Czech Republic 1-0 Scotland (4-6-0) Wales 4-0 Scotland (2004ish I think) Wales 3-0 Scotland (2009 I think) Georgia 2-0 Scotland Georgia 1-0 Scotland Macedonia 1-0 Scotland Lithuania 1-0 Scotland Lithuania 0-0 Scotland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandarilla Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 The draw with the faroes under Berti was the worst for me. Bleak, bleak times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivo den Bieman Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 yep, that 0-5 against Portugal was a really painful one...the game as one sided as a fourth round Scottish Cup tie between Celtic and Wigtown & Bladnoch. Honorary mention for the pisspoor 0-0 draw with Estonia in "neutral" Monaco...1997 or thereabouts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppino Impastato Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 We were horrific against England at park head last y, if it was 4 nil at half time we could have had no complaints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
List_of_Jericho Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I was too young to remember the Portugal 5-0 game, remember a lot of the ones mentioned. Faroes 2-2 was a shocker, the two pumpings we took against Wales albeit in Friendly's were awful. What about 0-3 against Morocco in France 98?
