No, Paterson is a right back is he not? Taylor hasn't done anything wrong for us as far as I can remember.

Why Paterson over Taylor?

Robertson got flattened by their keeper and subbed off, with arm in a makeshift sling in his jersey. We can't go into November without Robbo and Tierney surely.

Offside Morata goal disallowed for Spain

I thought that was a red incoming for Dykes, just a yellow. A tad harsh

Ooooooofff, off the post by them. Disna matter, they didna score.

Hickey is doing his job well.

24 mins in and Cyprus and Norway also 0-0

Big game incoming from Robbo

Current temp is 30 degrees with 31% humidity, and 5mph wind.

On it

I just looked and the Cyprus v Norway match is happening at the same time as ours.

Norway know they must win all three matches regardless of what happens with us. This time next week we will have qualified I am certain of it.

IMO, Let's wait to qualify, and then examine our group then we decide once it's all said and done if not making the second round was a failure. I want Clarke atleast, to see out the next World Cup campaign.

I doubt Clarke will call up a replacement, but Shinnie has been playing good. Might be a useful player to add to the squad as long as we don't play him at left back.

I miss our emojis. I agree with you, this isn't the right time to bring in youngsters this match(es) is for experience. I understand there are few ideal camps to bring in young folk, if we were playing a lower ranked team instead of France I would be supportive of Doig and Doak. Only name I'm indifferent about is Jacob Brown, and Jacob if your reading it's not personal it's just you've been in what, 10 camps and I've never seen you beyond a few minutes nor does your domestic form excite me.

Guaranteed we wont see Tierney, seems he will be out until Christmas - https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/kieran-tierney-could-miss-scotland-31096935

Squad scheduled to be announced tomorrow, who is guaranteed to be in/out, who would you like to see included or defiantly not and what might your start 11 look like?

I had to look this up after reading your post, I think it's a great idea and maybe should be adopted for all future tournaments even ones that are not staged in multiple countries. I would rather we play in competitive matches during a campaign. It could even grow the sport because other countries would want to get involved hosting with neighboring countries and expose the world to different cultures. Andorra & Spain hosting or Germany & Czech Republic. In both scenario's there's at least one nation who is capable of hosting on their own but they might enjoy some cost reduction.

It's pretty evident, when England want to keep the ball form us, they do but what's troubling is our press and our ability to tighten up.

ok, that was better. We were building so lets keep pressing, Robbo getting more invovled now
