Not delighted with Hanley still being our best option at centre-back but there we are. Yeah I think you're right with Mcginn off the striker That is a 541 at home against Cyprus But yes likely 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think for many on here the Scotland v Cyprus game is quite big/something to get excited about but the running joke being that you might think the Scotland game is big, but not as big as Stirling v Dumbarton which is also getting played today. Or something to that effect. Perhaps similar in tone to the flood of Yogi Hughes pics and memes that appear whenever a vacancy in football or politics arises. My personal favourite of what I would consider to be like-minded patter, is when someone is on their holidays, say the Amalfi Coast, and accompany a pic with a statement along the lines of "Saltcoats has changed quite a lot since I last visited"...

Donathan Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Surprising not to see McTominay in there. I wonder if he’s injured as he didn’t take part in one of the training sessions earlier in the week. UEFA have it as a 3-4-2-1 which has often been our formation but the personnel in there can be adaptable and switch to a 4-2-3-1 if it’s not working out. Robertson would go to the left wing if that happens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would also expect Hyam to come on at some point so he’s not going into the Spain game with no experience.

While most games have been moved (to last night or later today), the Stirling v Dumbarton game (which is the top two in League Two) hasn't so kicks off at 3. This means that fans of both clubs can't go - or even see - both games. Fans of these clubs, quite rightly, see this as a big game and want to cheer on their team. It's unfortunate but it is what it is, and something lower league fans have had to put up with for years. A shame really as a great number of lower league fans also support the national team. They are offering their tickets to fans who weren't able to get their own, and in true P&B fashion, other folk have hilariously turned the tables by asking about the clash at Forthbank. . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) Gunn Porto Hanley Tierney Hickey Jack McGregor Robertson McGinn Adams Armstrong Something like that?

accies1874 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 I'm guessing back four due to Armstrong's inclusion as he'll provide some width on the right which no one else would in that shape. McTominay might have played RCB too. Just a guess though and my other predictions weren't too great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least we have the personnel on the bench to make significant changes if wanted/needed. So often in the past our First XI had a couple of ringers, and now there aren’t any in the squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Sensible Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 2 hours ago, accies1874 said: Christie's an important player on and off the ball. Great presser and our best technical out-ball between the lines. The only way I don't see him playing is if Clarke goes with Dykes + Adams in a 3-5-2 (unlikely imo) or Robertson playing where he did in the 2nd half v Turkey (a possibility). I think you might be right about Hanley, but there's still a possibility that McTominay and Tierney don't start which I wouldn't say about the others. I was right about Christie but wrong about McTominay How Ryan Jack is starting I’ll never know. Maybe McTominay is being saved for Spain. Can you ever imagine Ryan Jack getting near game for Manchester United? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought with the inclusion of Tierney, Porteous and Hanley with Hickey and Robertson it was a stick on back 3/5 with the latter two as wing backs? Unless we’re trying something mad like Robertson at left wing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donathan Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Ryan Jack has been good for Scotland in the past when he’s been fit. Did a great job that night in Serbia and was magnificent in the September triple header when half the squad was unavailable but we still managed to top our nations league group. Just a shame that he’s had an injury hit career and missed the euros but he should always be in the squad for me when fit and I’ve no qualms about him being chosen to start competitive internationals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we’re trying something mad like Robertson at left wing I think it’s probably a back three but a 4-2-3-1 with Robertson as a winger is something we’ve done before (second half in Diyarbakir) and I don’t think it’s as mad as you think. He’s a very attacking left back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
