rovers271194 Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 In the middle of the World Cup the draw has been made for the Euro qualifiers. I've absolutely no idea how but ive been seeded 1st. Didn't realise that before I watched the draw and was beginning to think they forgot to put me in. Happy enough with that although on 2nd viewing I don't think we will have a single comfortable away game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovers271194 Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 Well here we go. Biggest match in a quarter of a century for Scotland. Lost our captain and Ryan Fraser to suspensions so in come Taylor and Burke. Got a bad bad feeling about this but I suppose that comes with years of following Scotland. 21 seconds gone and we are out of the world cup. Horrendous start and in truth it could have been worse. Started to come back into the match and were awarded what looked a dodgy VAR penalty but Billy Gilmour missed his big chance. Holding on by our fingertips. 4 big players missing before the tournament started and then two more before kick off. Don't think many countries could cope with that Yaaaaaa Beuaty. Down and out and now we are back in with a chance. Out of nothing. Brilliant goal from Mikey Johnston. VAR goal chopped off for Mikey Johnson in the 82nd minute to put us in the next round. Devastating. Horrendously disappointing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dysartrovers Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Currently waiting on the axe to fall. Think I could take this team further without injury but won't get the chance. SFA are apparently unhappy that I overlooked all the players that were injured and are disappointed with a dismal world cup showing despite not losing a game. What can you do? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dysartrovers Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 So I can confirm that I have been sacked. First manager in 20 years to qualify and never lost a game but I'm not bitter haha. Cameroon lost on penalties to France in the 2nd round and italy lost to Uruguay in the quarters. Uruguay went on to win the world cup on penalties against Portugal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dysartrovers Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Went back and played the last two games again as didn't want to start another game so late. Another draw with Cameroon but beat the USA 2-1 with a late billy gilmour penalty. Oh the irony 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dysartrovers Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Lost 2-0 to Switzerland in the quarters. Sliding doors. I'm going to continue with this save for a while so will post when I win the world cup 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
