Because it is new, the League of Nations has seemed complex and difficult for people to understand, however the thing I am sure about is that we play Israel in every round, so where is this chat about Serbia coming from?

Full match is on YouTube. Hornby sticking out like a sore thumb. In a good way. 

Must've stuck in at training.

Tough ask the way we are playing, Serbia are decent.

 

I expected Clarke to keep things simple the way he did at Kilmarnock, but he’s not done that really.

 

Thought he’d be playing 442/451 depending on who we played.

Does not appreciate beautiful scenery tut tut !

FWIW I've climbed that hill, and the three Munros on the other side. Also walked into there from Kinlochleven, out to Rannoch Station, walked round the loch in a winter storm and cycled from there to Spean Bridge via Fersit. I've stayed in the station building when it was a bunkhouse, and in the youth hostel at the loch. I've seen it in 25 degrees and frozen solid.

It's still shite being Scottish.

No. Generally a bit fed up with folk, but in this context it's more that I'm a football lover in a nation of football lovers who don't seem to have any interest in training kids to be good footballers.

Probably not. Certainly the best chance since we went to Holland with a 1-0 win in 2003... then lost the second leg 6-0.
A similar 3+ goal drubbing is certainly not unlikely here. Serbia are demonstrably a better side than us.
They’re above us in the rankings, their squad has what it takes to qualify - they were at the 2018 World Cup - and they have home advantage. If we did win this it would be the greatest Scottish result since... ?
Since we won in France in 2007 at least, probably even longer since that result ultimately didn’t get us to a tournament.
After suffering 120 minutes of that rubbish last night it’s hard to imagine us scoring a goal over there. Another 0-0 in penalties is our most realistic chance of qualification... Yet when you look at Serbia’s attacking options it’s also hard to imagine us keeping a clean sheet...
Yeah I can’t see how we win this but stranger things have happened.
I think the last time we won a competitive game against a proper team away from home was... Croatia in 2013 when we were already out - (I’m not counting Czech Republic C a few weeks ago).
Underdogs is an understatement. We will need the performance of a lifetime and a whole lot of luck. We are certainly due both.
 

Croatia were not out though

Brilliant result
