Did you mean to say naturalised or are you saying that the national team needs to be brought under state control? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The former. We're not allowed to do the latter. Which is a shame, as the internet says we're all full of nanochips now, so the government could control them like a game of FIFA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking more in a communist era style, like Hungary in the 50's. It didn't seem to do them much harm tbf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as Steve Clarke's reign seems to be going oddly well, you'd take just about anyone else running the SFA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRS111 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I’ve got a spare ticket for the North Stand for Monday’s game - £25 face value - if anyone interested just let me know. Noticed the game’s sold out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2426255 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 (edited) Quote I think in the game I watched he gave the ball away once in 95 minutes. That's what impressed me more than anything. Because on Monday night (against Denmark) if he is called on to play that position, we are going to have some of the ball and he is going to have to step in and have possession. That was on my mind when I was looking at him. He is suited to the system we play so it's a perfect fit.

It didn't seem to do them much harm tbf. It's an interesting concept but we've already tried it. During the Cold War in the 1950s a totalitarian strongman - comrade Willie Allan - oversaw an SFA putsch giving him complete control over the military-industrial-football complex. This so-called Stalin of Park Gardens was so powerful he deemed it unnecessary to appoint an actual International coach, preferring to retain as much power and influence for himself as he could to thwart the ranks of paper tiger reformists. When the poisoned umbrella finally did for him, his understudy Ernie Walker took over, famously instigating a five-year plan of reform popularly known as the Think Tank. General Secretary Walker's populist credentials were cemented when he replaced the bourgeois anthem God Save The Queen with peasants' favourite Flower Of Scotland. Walker was himself replaced with yet another unelected bureaucrat, Comrade Jim "Andropov" Farry, whose dialectical immaterialism became legendary. Alas, it was all downhill from here. World Cup qualification never again troubled the masses and everyone thereafter lived in a permanent state of nostalgia. Great times, mind. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd still leave the game early given how long it took the crowd to clear after the Israel game. I always like to be comfortably early for departures so this is bringing me out in a cold sweat . Hopefully we're getting ridden 4-0 with 15 to go and the crowd thins a bit for you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
