They know how to play and they are all technically good. This is down to practice and good coaching. Not luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course he is a great player and should be in the starting eleven every time, and he has played a lot of games. But he was poor tonight. So did McKenna but it's not about the individuals,Scotland need our best players available for the 2 Russian games and the Cyprus away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said before, I doubt we'll qualify out of this group. The Nations League playoffs could be a strong possibility, but I think we'll be in a much better place for the tournament after that, with Clarke in chaarge. just Cyprus are not as bad as some people think they are Unfortunately our absence from top tournaments has been long term and not enough has been done about it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a better option than Mikey Devlin. why was David Bates not in the squad ? ( Bundesliga 2 better than premiership question ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done to Steve Clarke beating Cyprus with a last minute goal and instead of losing 4-0 to belgium we now lose 3-0. McLeish would have been slaughtered for these results. Nice to see Steve Clarke is still living completely rent free in the heads of ***s everywhere 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish people will find you laughter at Scotland losing tonight deeply deeply offensive. Do you hate Scotland simply because you support Rangers? No. What is laughable is that some simpleton said that Steve Clarke was a better manager than Roberto Martinez. I love Scotland and hope Steve Clarke is successful -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Scotland and hope Steve Clarke is successful Actually, Kuro didn't say that. He said he'd rather have him than Roberto Martinez. The implication was all yours. If it helps, I too would rather have Steve Clarke managing Scotland than Martinez, as I've seen him take poor players and improve them. Mind you, I'd rather have him back at Killie. Genuine question - would you rather have Clarke or Gerrard at rangers? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Morgan and Glenn Middleton seem to be the next big hopes. Hastie at Motherwell (if he's still at Motherwell?), too. Can't think of any on the right.
