Ross McRorie sounds a good shout. Desperate times on that side of the park by the looks of it though. Folk calling for Fraser there. How will he defend? And we'll be defending a hell of a lot.

You picked up a knock too?

Finally caught up with the last season of Fear The Walking Dead when it became free on Prime. What a load of complete and utter sh*te. A time jump of 7 years from the previous season yet all the characters look exactly the same and run into each other through amazing coincidences not to mention all looking like they get at least 3 square meals a day with full access to toothpaste, makeup and washing facilities. FFS even Daniel's cat reappeared and recognised him instantly! Fell into the "so bad it's good" category. I think my favourite bit was, even all these years into the apocalypse, oxygen cylinders being readily available to Madison who was struggling with breathing issues, even if they didn't stop her banjoing various zombies with this muckle big sledgehammer. Maybe I overthink things. Glad that's over. No idea what channels the various spin-offs will be on, but if they're anything like this garbage or The World Beyond then they won't be worth watching.

'kin hell that's mental. Never heard that one. He must've been keeping bonny78 and the Ramy loonie company in my Ignore bin when he came out with that.

Me too until the recent AFCON when a commentator said they hadn't won it since 1976 or something. Real shock as they were a cracking side in '98.

The clincher will be if he says "5-3-2" or "Kimmich plays there for Germany". Jury's out until then.

No they weren't.

Just read that they're "hopeful" it isn't that bad and that they're waiting for full info from the scan. From the BBC Gossip section. Hopefully you've read something more up-to-date than me cos it'd be calamitous to lose him.,

Patterson needs a session with a sports psychologist to get his head back in the game. If he's performing like that in training at his club then it's no wonder he's not in the team. Where did the brash, confident player that's in there go? He looked great when he first broke into the team. Funny how quickly things change. Not that long ago we were wondering how we could fit any combo of Hickey, Patterson and Ramsay into the team as they'd all be too good to leave out.

Might've helped if they'd got them recharged at half-time.

With a MAJOR incentive , i.e. qualifying with 8 wins out of 8 which I believe we would've done.

Last night we were crying out for someone to unlock their packed defence and on comes Kenny McLean. I like McLean for shoring things up when it's going well but FFS, not when you're desperately trying to avoid a humiliating defeat to a team of youngsters. Could Ryan Gauld have done this? We'll never know. Those players last night plus McGregor and Hickey - that's yer squad with a wee bit of whittling down. And we'd better all pray that Hickey's back cos the thought of lining up to face Germany with NI's best player at RWB fills me with dread. Too many of them playing like their places were guaranteed. Would've loved to have seen some bone crunchers put in along with the "in yer face" attitude like that shown by NI last night. There was a time a few of them would've gone 6 feet in the air for daring to do that at Hampden. On another note... genuine question - did Dykes even touch the ball last night? I know he had eff all service but I can't remember him being involved at all apart from the stretch to try and get to a pass cleared by the goalie.

There's not one single positive to take from that load of utter honking SH*TE. Not one. Clearly we can't break down teams that are set up to play us on the counter and when we set up like that, e.g. Friday night, we're prone to getting fkin murdered. I can usually find something to be optimistic about, but not after watching that complete and utter total p*sh.

FFS get Patterson off. He's having a total fkin nightmare, worse than Friday night. WTF was he thinking about arseing around like that in his own fkin box???

I like McGregor, but if it's a straight choice between him and Billy Gilmour then Gilmour wins every single time.

That's a pretty fair assessment. In the cold light of day we were out-Dutching the Dutch in their own stadium and should've been ahead and then it all went to rat crap when he brought the subs on. If Tierney isn't in that back 3 and/or Gilmour isn't in front of them then SC better find a way of ensuring that the opposition don't go through us like a dose of salts. The really annoying thing for me is the way we'd been playing some of the best fitba I've ever seen from a Scotland side - composed possession with a purpose - only for the replacements to come on and start running round like heidless chickens. AND... all that great stuff got played with Patterson having a bit of a nightmare and McGinn having one of his worst performances. Hickey in on the right and McGinn getting over his off-night and I'd be happy with that starting 11 in June. From what I saw last night though they'd all need to stay on for the 90 minutes! No more taking off the sublime talent of Gilmour with still 20 minutes on the clock cos that's just sheer madness.

I think tonight showed we don't have strength in depth coming off the bench. Probably right to take KT off as we need to wrap that guy in cotton wool. Surprised to see Gilmour go though as the gaps then started appearing in the middle of the park. We don't have anybody else remotely like him. Until these substitutions we'd been brilliant - away from home against a top side and knocking the ball about like that and creating chances? We played some great stuff. Pity Gunn decided to play that fkin ridiculous pass out to Patterson which led to the 2nd and then everything fell apart.

How the fck are we losing this game??? Wondered if Porteous was even on the park when he suddenly popped up at centre-forward!

I think the whole concept of international fitba is a wee bit lost on you. The only way someone like that should be near a Scotland jersey is when Ryan Porteous boots him 6 feet in the air in the Euro 2024 final.

You must look like Zorba the Greek every time your team plays!

Hindsight's a wonderful thing, but he would've been better staying at Aberdeen for another couple of years. Hope he doesn't just disappear into the lower leagues.

Aye that was him. Fkin hell, what a handle! 🤣

Who was the young guy with the wacky name that went from Aberdeen to Ibrox? Haven't seen him appear in any of the lower age squads. (I'd obviously recognise the name if I saw it!) He was meant to be a superstar in the making. Heard the other day as well that Liverpool are supposed to be in for Frimpong. Not sure where that'd leave Calvin Ramsay considering there's a N Irish guy the same age already getting first team games there at right-back.

His best days were when he became the target man and had the likes of Johnston, Nicholas and McAvennie playing off him rather than him playing off Jordan. That and Jock Stein running out of patience with him at the 82 WC. He showed flashes of brilliance up to that point, but after it he moved up several levels and became the player in dark blue we all knew he could be. Souness and Strachan weren't an upgrade on what we had available in the mid-70's IMO.

Aye, the "good wee parliamentarians" will be just great at doing that. Might even do a walkout only to go back in again later when they realise filet mignon is on the restaurant menu that night.
