Burke starting wide for Sheffield United. Time for him to prove himself at the level he first impressed.

Armstrong for me.
I think he's a great player, but he's been absolutely shite this tournament.
Agree 100%.
Annoys me how casual he is in possession at times, gave the ball away on numerous occasions.
Its hard to see where he’d fit in to our midfield if everyone was fit.

There is def cheaper options on eBay at the moment.
There also seems to be an influx of remakes of some the classic early 90s away tops/the 1990 "leisure" kits. Im not sure where these are coming from. The designs are spot on essentially but I'm dubious of the quality but they are quite cheap I suppose. Was hoping someone could shed some light on these?
They’re all coming from DH gate. Uk sellers are buying them in bulk and selling them on eBay with big markup.
Ive bought our current tops from DH Gate in the past and there’s always been slight differences(not big but enough to annoy me)however I’ve just bought 92 away and 98 home from DH Gate and very happy, 30 quid for both, 2 weeks delivery.

Great move for him. Always liked wee Russell. Wouldn’t be a first pick for Scotland for the majority but he’d be in my squad every time.

Got my England ticket.
I'm on 14 points and struggling to get my head around eligibility for the Croat and/ or Czech games
Anybody think I've got a chance?
When the allocations first came out I’d have said yes but on hearing there have been so many loyalty points boosted due to discrepancies not I’m not so sure.

Some folk will do that but plenty won’t.
Hope you’re right, it would be pretty futile anyway. I think it’s well nigh impossible to transfer the ticket to someone else so it’d just be a wasted ticket.

Don't know for certain but would expect it will be first come, first served once we get down to points levels where there are more people eligible than tickets available.
I’m less hopeful than I was of getting a ticket on 12 points. Even those who can’t or don’t want to attend seem to be taking up the option in the hope of transferring the tickets to someone else.

Seems sensible. The SFA should get on top of this and have people in the next few points level indicate if they would like to be in the ballot for tickets so that nobody who has no intention of going isn't entered into the ballot. This would probably save a lot of back and forth with UEFA if it drops a few levels.
Would make perfect sense particularly as they’ve now done their bit for the next week by sending out the links. Everything else till the closing date is down to UEFA.
I had initially thought they’d ballot 12 pointers to indicate the first 174 who would be eligible for a ticket but I’m not aware that 12 pointers have received a link so it appears they’ll just do a ballot next Tuesday to get the full amount. Going to be a long week for some...

Has anyone done the sums for 12 pointers?
ie how many tix are on sale v how many members there are that have been offered tix
Will there be any left?
I did some fag packet maths when the email came out to say it was 13 and above for Wembley...there should be 174 tickets left if there’s 100% uptake from 13 points above, meaning there needs to be a further 396 that don’t uptake for all 12 pointers to get a ticket.
I asked SSC how this would be addressed and they’ve alluded that come next week UEFA will inform them how many tickets remain and send the relevant number of access codes for SSC to use, can only imagine it’ll go to a ballot.
Unless anyone knows different?

Decent header from Nisbett.

Rhodes with 4 in his last 5.

People can criticize McBurnie all they like, but he's been dedicated to our cause all the way from U19 and U21 level. He's been playing for us for 7 years.
Now Adams comes along and pushes him down the queue. It's unfair.
It would be understandable if Adams was the next Messi, but he clearly Is not.
The easy way for McBurnie to have avoided this would’ve been to have scored or even shown some flashes of quality in his previous games for us which would’ve negated our need to go looking for another striker. As he’s never done this and his club form has been woeful of late he’s only really got himself to blame if he doesn’t make the final squad.

Is Johnny Russell still playing out in the States? He seems to have fallen off the radar recently.
He’s still there and has been made captain of his club this season. He’s lost out recently due to travelling/quarantine issues.
Id have him in the squad, can play any where along the front line and unlike Burke can control a football.

Come on take your English mercenary specs off eh? Malky Mackay has stated in the press he asked and got turned down. Clarke states McLeish asked and got turned down and Clarke asked once. He never said yes and in my eyes that is a rejection. Now can you give me any evidence he has ever set foot in Scotland before? If not we better make sure the SFA send him down a roadmap so he can find his way.
I’m hardly looking at it through English mercenary specs, I just think the guy is perhaps getting a bit of a hard time, happy to be proven wrong if indeed he has turned us down 3 times but the only evidence I’m aware of was McLeish approaching him a few years back.
-
Just out of interest do any of the posters who are claiming Adams turned us down 3 times have any direct quotes of this actually being the case?
Clarke mentioned McLeish approaching him once and him saying he wasn’t ready to commit.

There's a lot of love for Dykes from QPR fans on twitter tonight too. Seems promising.
Also interesting that he played up front as part of a pairing. I think Clarke might try Dykes and Adams together at some point.
It crossed my mind, he linked well with Austin tonight, still think we play more to his strengths than QPR do but it’s good to see him on form.

Dykes back in the QPR starting 11 tonight
I watched most of it, he put in a brilliant shift. Hold up play was excellent and was unlucky not to score, looking much more like his old self.
-
Just watched a bit of the QPR game, Dykes has just been subbed. Looks as if he’s a bit low on confidence.

And for Oliver McBurnie at that!
Exactly, double beamer.

Oli Burke suffers the embarrassment tonight of being subbed after coming on as a sub.
-
He just fits into our system so well and is an absolute joy to watch.
Its hilarious to read QPR fans on Twitter slagging him off and saying he should be binned after 9 games.
-
Burke starting tonight for Alaves.
-
Fraser Hornby has joined Reims on a 4 year deal.

Campbell Money for me, was very unlucky that he was understudy to Goram/Leighton at various points.
Then St Mirren got relegated, he retired and Nicky Walker got a cap.

Cracking set up by Dykes for QPR’s second goal.
