    Are there any of the Thai / Far East companies that produce replica fakes (such as DHGATE) with the correct strip design on sale yet? If you read the SSC email, you only get the discount with JD SPORTS if you install JD Sports APP not on the web-site. I ain't having a JD Sports APP so I'll get myself a fake one I think. Cannot stand JD Sports and the way access to official Scotland gear is so restricted and poorly managed. I'll get a £15 fake when it is available rather than £65.

    A couple of DH Gate sellers have it but stating delivery won’t be till October/November.

    Burkes goal. Its a pretty decent finish. If his career starts to take off there then perhaps he should get his place back in the squad. Problem is we dont play wingers and i am not sure burke is really a winger anyways. Maybe a formation of 433 would be worth a try. A forward three chosen from adams, dykes, fraser, burke, stewart, brown could work especially against the weaker teams. Plenty of pace and guys who can finish reasonably well.

    If, and it’s a massive if he gets game time I’d have him in the squad. Forrest is pretty done at a decent level and Fraser is unreliable so it’d be worth giving him a squad place as an option to bring on if we’re chasing a game or changing formation.

    During the last couple of games, noticed a few people wearing what looked to be a retro copy of this tracksuit top from 1978, and thought it looked quite smart. 

    Does anyone know where it is available to buy?

    Any other match that i have applied for.like the faroes showed the exact amount of points that it finished on.I know because i got one of the last tickets and it ended showing the points i had as the lowest points required.

    It’s definitely on a timer, both sold out games dropped a number at 1000 today.

    I got this back from them. I have gone back to ask how far in advance people can load their basket and if they are first in line. If they are it makes a complete mockery of the sale.

    How long could someone keep a ticket in their basket then I wonder? System is definitely flawed.

    Any clue on where Ukraine are playing their “home” games.

    Obviously not in Ukraine.

    Warsaw has been mentioned.

    I don't understand why the SFA are so quiet on this . If Ukraine ask for a postponement simply agree. It is a bit late but we could ask Armenia if they want to bring forward the Nation's league game. Anyone who has booked travel and accommodation won't have it wasted.

    Would make sense to move one of the home Nations League games to March 24th. Means it’s still a competitive game and leaves a gap in June to try and accommodate Ukraine if that is possible.

    Let’s hope that’s the case. 

    Looks like there’s no chance of home end tickets for Cardiff so hopefully more chance if we were to make it through and get Austria. 

    Chance of a public sale is non existent. Can guarantee there’ll still be some Scots in the home end though.

    You're right, I do think Watt would need to prove more than some other names due to his history. But I'd never give up on him, or anyone.

    Could he be both an early bloomer and a late bloomer? 😄

    I’ve always been hopeful with Watt that he’d mature into a Scotland regular but it’s never happened for various reasons.

    This is probably the most settled he’s been but it strikes me that his personality is the antithesis of what Clarke wants around the squad, that said if he continues his form he can’t be ignored. Particularly when Nisbet is so off form.

    Exactly this. Why disrupt the group dynamics with an outsider when they are almost certainly not going to play.

    I am in favour of calling up a player to integrate them into the squad if Clarke genuinely sees them as being a potential regular e.g Gauld, Souttar etc.

    However, calling up older players like Fleck, C.Paterson, Russell etc would be nothing more than making up the numbers (no disrespect, I like them all). Clarke showed with Greg Taylor's injury that he won't just replace a member of the squad needlessly.

    Tony Watt IMO deserves a call up on recent form but due to the fact he’s Tony Watt and the reasons you’ve mentioned I can’t see it. Brophy has been in excellent form as well, playing up front on his own but even through my black and white tinted glasses I couldn’t see him getting near the pitch if Dykes was fit.
