DigOutYourSoul Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 My biggest issue with strachan is that he still continues to start James Forrest who is absolutely awful. It's his stubbornness that gets me the most, but as people have said, who actually comes in and takes over the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie S Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 The people tying themselves in knots to justify the booing, which was quite clearly aimed at Martin, are delusional. Contempt for Martin practically seethes out of the pores of, at the very least, a sizeable minority of the Tartan Army. He's limited, but so are all Scotland's options up front at the moment. The excuse that he 'wasn't great' against Canada is laughable, no-one was. Martin is an easy target, a scapegoat. Delighted for him tonight.

John Lambies Doos Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 As it stand's we would not make the play offs as we would have the worst record of second place teams . You must be great old craic on a night out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

resk Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Good performance and win. Forrest was mince, but other than that I'll begrudgingly admit that the wee ginger fud got his team (and his subs) right. I think Martin is a hoofer, but nobody would question his spirit and it was a neat wee finish. Armstrong and Robertson were class. Tierney decent. Everyone else did their job.

Hammer Jag Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Booing your own player onto the pitch is just despicable. The 'Tartan Army' have previous though with their disgraceful hounding of Gary McAllister. Utter scumbags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, recent performances have not been good but let the man get things right. Tonight proved the players are right behind him. Booing your own players was shocking as well. Square passes getting booed. Shocking. The boo boys were wanting us to lose so Strachan would leave. You need to remember Slovenia have been to recent World cups and Euros and they've only had 1 shot at goal. Tierney at right-back was inspired and Armstrong and Brown were good. Get behind the team, end of!!! Such an inspired decision that plenty of regular P&Bers were calling for it two or three games ago. Same goes for including Armstrong btw.

MarkoRaj Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 He couldn't score from 3 yards out into an open goal. Iwelumo got hounded for a similar miss . You didn't answer the question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 What did Strachan say in his interview? Nothing much Asked about the booing, mentioned McAllister/Dalglish and Hansen had been booed so he hopes he doesn't take it too hard. Says the players and staff all support him and he's a different option. Asked about what he thought about himself being criticised pre game and he laughed it off with a wee light hearted joke and said he only cares about the teamSaid Armstrongs debut was the best Scotland one he's seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco30 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 6 minutes ago, 54_and_counting said: not entirely, there is a means to an end, say strachan manages to get a decent run going until the end of the qualifiers, draw against england, beat slovakia etc, we finish 2nd but miles away from best runners up or finish 3rd but close, strachan would likely get the next qualifiers and the shambles of the lithuania at home amongst others will be forgotten amongst paper talk of "glorious failure" and "braveheart warriors fought to the end" Looking at Strachan and listening to his interviews I genuinely believe that this will be his last campaign. I know there's different ways of looking at the result and that can be understandable , but to basically say that it was disappointing the team got a late winner because it keeps Strachan in a job is disgraceful if u ask me.

8MileBU Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Him and Tierney. [emoji7] Think I'd like to see if Tierney and Robertson could work well at left back and left midfield respectively. Tierney seems far more comfortable defending than Robertson, who looks much better going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get to 2nd you will need to win some more games by which time you will more than likely have a record good enough for the play offs. "More than likely" is pretty optimistic. It's possible.
