velo army Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 So after the phoney war (and much knicker-wetting) of the Belgium game comes the real business of putting a bunch of no-hope diddies to the sword. Seriously though, Albania are no mugs, qualified for the last euros and have a few players thriving in Serie A. They also have a really cool flag. I reckon this could be an excellent game. I’m just irked that it is a shit k.o time/too expensive which will affect the crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Absolutely must-win. I'd not cry about a draw away at Albania but we have to beat them at Hampden. Crowd of < 20,000 expected though, so at least there won't be too much booing when we scrape a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie95 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I'm heading to the game tonight, despite this being the least enthusiastic I have felt about a Scotland match in a while. At least it can't (surely) be any worse that Friday night... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Gah. I can see this being a complete disaster, arguably the lowest point since the Faroes draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeVanTeeth Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 This is easily the most apathetic in years about a competitive Scotland game. Why reward the blazers for installing a manager a EBT using manager who nobody wanted by buying a rip-off priced ticket for such an uninspiring match on a Monday night?

Guest Bob Mahelp Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Many of the Albanian players are playing at a higher level than our players. And they're more skilful. I can see a shit awful 1-1 draw here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guts Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I'm not well up on this but is this right: our governing body have put a man in charge who could be made to repay tax bills he racked up through cheating the Scottish game and if he does need to he'll pay it from wages he's earned by scottish football fans paying into our game? Don't know how to add a twitter snapshot/link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just letting it slide is the problem, Scotland fans should not have accepted him and should not have bought a single ticket once he was appointed. On top of it all he was unemployable and a fcking joke without the baggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 No one with a shamrock, Ireland flag or union flag in their twitter name can ever make an excellent point. At least if Celtic fans don't buy tickets for Scotland games it'll be less people there to boo Ryan Jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know how to add a twitter snapshot/link. Even as a Celtic fan I really dont get this. His employers told him it was a legitimate way of paying him. Having worked offshore I have seen similar fly by night companies and accountants tell their employees/clients of similar ‘avoidance’ methods only to get stung eventually. Yes Rangers had players they shouldnt have had but I dont blame any of the football staff for being there as they were also brought in under false pretendes. Cant believe I am defending Mcleish here as the man comes across as a drunken fool these days and shouldnt be near a stadium as a pundit let alone as a manager. But he’s not a cheat.

TheScarf Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 What's the reason being cited for the booing of Jack? It is because he's a ***? Or just because he's absolutely fucking shite? Or both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think he has done anything untoward to us either. It was clearly Aberdeen fans in the past but I think they are over it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
