McGregor laid our best chance of the night on a plate for Ritchie. Overall though that was utterly fkin honking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In recent campaigns I’ve always thought we were a decent team who just weren’t good enough to qualify. Most games I’ve thought we’ve played some decent stuff. Tonight has been awful. Like watching Berti’s friendlies. I liked the football we played under strachan and it felt like we were a team who could qualify imo. This game tonight was depressing to watch. We need guys like snodgrass, griffiths and Tierney back. Also how does Fraser not get a game. It's beyond ridiculous that a guy who has been a good performer in the epl over the last couple of years gets no games time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Continually dumbfounded that he remains sky’s Premier Scottish commentator I've long said sky's treatment and utter ignorance towards Scottish football is a disgrace. As long they have their four OF matches a season they won't give a shit. You'd be better off with beavis and butthead in the studio instead of commons and Boyd. Crocker is beyond terrible, as is Andy walker. All of the above have zero knowledge of the game. At least the BBC commentators show passion for the game, especially Scotland.

Even the non jocks in the rugby squad sing it with pride and they're all supposed to be no voters according to the ignorant among our supporters. It's a pet hate of mine, it gives me the impression they are not proud to be there. Surprised it's taken you this long to mentioned your beloved rugby lads. National anthems are a lot of shite, they mean nothing in a modern society and are literally terrible old songs about misty eyed guff. Only the the most dense football fans in the world would believe there is anything to take from players not singing a national anthem. If they didn't want to be there, they'd ask not to be selected and let's be clear, passion and pride don't win football matches, intelligence, technical ability and discipline does.

Eh? Not at all, I expected better given what I've heard of him. He looks way short of the technique needed at this level. Mind you I'll say again, he wasn't alone.

Against my better judgement I opened this post as I have you on ignore. I see My choice to put you on ignore is still 100% justified. You've completely ignored what I've written and replied to what you think I wrote. Yup, definitely not opening any of your posts again.

Dave78 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I hope McLeish drops the 3 at the back system. I remember the last time Scotland tried to play it - at home to Gibraltar. We were as disjointed as tonight, and lost the opening goal. It was only when Strachan changed it to his normal system did we go on to win comfortably. I lost count tonight of the number of wasted forward passes played by our wide CBs, who just can't pass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right that means Tierney cant play then. dont say right back, he's not comfortable there. and he cannot start over robertson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three at the back need to be decent players and well drilled. A long time ago we used it successfully . I see England used it tonight and although they weren't put under much pressure the England back three were all players who are very comfortable with the ball.

Agree on fraser, he should start ahead of Ritchie, I hope he plays on Tuesday. He’s the type of player who gives his all for every minute he’s in the pitch and he has talent too.
