I'd have both in the team. Personally, I think Fraser is the most talented Scottish player about at the moment. If we get the best of him, we have a player that can really hurt team - good teams too. I posted a team recently, a little bit tongue-in-cheek but it could actually work. Marshall McTominay McKenna Tierney Armstrong McGinn McGregor Robertson Forrest McBurnie Fraser

Operation get all our best players in the starting XI... Marshall McTominay McKenna Tierney Armstrong McGinn McGregor Robertson Forrest McBurnie Fraser Christie and Griffiths just miss out. Gilmour won't be out the team for too long.

Yeah, I think it will have been good for him and Forrest getting a good break for the first time in years.

Not had much to talk about. Very hard to pick our team at the moment. We are going to have to leave out some good players whilst starting some poor players because of the imbalance we have in the squad. Personally, I think we need to find the best way to fit in Tierney, Robertson and Fraser. I'm not too bothered who starts between McGinn, Armstrong, Christie, McTominay and McGregor. All are decent enough. Gilmour will be in that mix soon too. Forrest and Griffiths would usually be in my starting XI. I think Martin and McBurnie have a role to play. Keeper, right-back and centre-backs are the real problems. Tierney at RB and McTominay at CB would allow us to get more of our best players on the pitch at the same time but comes with obvious risks.

A best guess would be Thursday 4 June with the final on Tuesday 9 June.

The only guidance is "the start of June".

Its the only option. Also seeing reports that the play-offs will now be in June.

I agree with that. A certain club think it should stop now, no league winners but all the other benefits of your current position should be available.

27-10-99 - Celtic 0-1 Motherwell Barnes was the manager, Larrson had broke his leg the week before and we paraded Ian Wright at half-time. We were dreadful and I've had a strong dislike for Motherwell ever since. I went to the match a few days later against Killie - 30-10-99 - Celtic 5-1 Kilmarnock We were 1-0 down at half-time but were excellent in the second half with Viduka getting a hat-trick and Wright scoring on his debut. I had the same seat for both games which was behind of of the goals. All 7 goals were scored in the opposite net.

They probably want the European places decided by current positions too

We've got six and would welcome a ban of gatherings of more than 5 people

I can't disagree. I think the performances in Europe over the last two years have helped keep Gerrard away from a lot more criticism. The great thing of us is that it keeps him in the job and helps our chances in Europe in future seasons.

No chance. 3 days off work, hotel and other costs to watch it in a pub that charges 4 times the amount of a pub I can watch it in at home? It's a easy choice to make.

John McGinn should be on the bench against Chelsea on Saturday (from a very good source). It would be interesting to see him against Gilmour at some point. Live on SKY too.

I tend to be in the "more options the better" camp but hard to get excited by this. I'd have Griffiths, McBurnie, Naismith, Rhodes, Brophy, Martin, Paterson and Burke ahead of him.

There are a lot of good players that haven't made any of the squads. Morrison, Hickey and the 3 from Man City for a start.

Brian McLaughlin has named his Scotland Men's Under-17s squad for our UEFA Elite Round.

Scot Gemmill has named his Scotland Under-21s squad for our upcoming UEFA Under 21 qualifiers against Croatia and Greece. Croatia (H) – Friday 27 March, 7pm – Tynecastle Park Greece (A) – Tuesday 31 March – 5pm – Theodoros Vardinoyannis Stadium

Billy Stark has named his Scotland Men's Under-19s squad for our UEFA Elite Round taking place in France later this month.

It's actually 8 in 7 which is pretty impressive for a midfielder at any level. Would really like to see him playing at a higher level with a club that plays him in his best position.

Ryan Gauld was called up at 18 too - https://www.eveningtelegraph.co.uk/2014/09/30/ryan-gauld-and-stevie-may-earn-scotland-call-up/

Strachan called a few up IIRC. Oli Burke was 18 when he was first called up.

The fact he isn't English might ruin that plan for Mr Southgate.

I wouldn't be too far away from that although I can't see Tierney and McGinn both being fit. I'd include Burke too.

Is there is a reason he couldn't be in both squads? Join the first team and see how he gets on. If he features against Israel, great. If not, he can join the u21s the next day to play against Croatia.
