RedLichtie86 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Is it time we bring back the Scotland B team? It would give fringe and future players the chance to show what they can do at international level rather than dropping them in the main squad to ride the bench. Burke, Cairney, Liam Cooper, Ryan Fraser, Ryan Gauld etc would be prime examples of players who would gain much needed experience. There always seem to be number of players who never get the chance of a call up. Most due to being not good enough. But others because they dont play for Prem, Championship, the OF and are simply overlooked. This would be a great outlet for those type of players.

ICTChris Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 *More* international football? If you want tortured, pay a dominatrix and leave the rest of us out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forameus Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 We don't have enough depth to make a B team worthwhile. And that's only if we could actualy find teams to play. I suppose we could play some lower tier diddies during international windows at the same time as the main side, but what's really the point? We're struggling to fill one squad with the mix of quality and youth, a B team would be full of absolute jobbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibeeJibee Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 As I've said before the problem is who to play: B internationals have almost entirely ceased. Plus Strachan doesn't bother using half the friendly dates he could: can't seen him adding B internationals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
