Off the top of my head the only other Scottish central defenders available are Murray Wallace, Steve Anderson, Paul Hanlon, Darren McGregor, Danny Wilson and Zak Jules. Coll Donaldson and Mark Durnan. And Garry Kenneth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's best to keep quiet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shed_Tartan_Army_Yeah Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) Agree about Bardsley, there must be something up. Was he at Rangers when Strachan was at Celtic?? Is Adam an any better option that what we have in the squad already? Will he get game time if he gets called up now? Lucky for us our midfield is looking quite decent so its a hard one to choose whether the call up is necessary. I'm sure hes on the radar unless theres a Bardsley-like situation going on.

Don't know whether to laugh or cry. Cooper is indeed dreadful. Mulgrew looks certain starter v Slovenia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calling up Bardsley might have been a good idea too. Agreed. Both those players should be in the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanderark14 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) anyone listen to sportsound last night? Stephen Pressley was one of the guests, I'm not surprised he's currently out of work. He openly admits that he's trying his best to persuade young english players from down south to play CB for Scotland. Whats wrong with trying some of the Scottish CB's from our own league? The current lot are not doing the job and we are failing, why not give others from our own league who are scottish and if they fail, we are no further backwards than we were before. There's nothing to lose by looking closer to home. Feck off strachan, Mcghee and Pressley Edited March 22, 2017 by vanderark14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think that this clown gets paid to sit behind a desk at Hampden phoning up clubs in England asking "gonnae ask yir players if any of them have Scottish grandparents and get back tae us ?". Genius.

He specifically referenced someone playing at Swansea who, from looking at their squad, i can only assume is Kyle Naughton. So isn't even a fecking centre half! The whole mindset of those in charge is humped. Constantly trying to tap up young foreign players, rather than trying our own youngsters who're performing well in our domestic league.

There's probably never been such an opportune time to try these guys too; We are at rock bottom and have one of the most meaningless and least interesting friendlies in our international history tomorrow night.

ErsatzThistle Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Just now, Parklife said: I've honestly never heard of him. Not a bad young central defender. Played well for Barnsley last season and has been playing first team for Swansea this season. Doesn't appear to have played for England at any level either. I think we have to consider him if it's true he is eligible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProudScot Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Totally different issue - What do people think about Wales calling up Harry Wilson and Ben Woodburn? Obviously Wilsons call up at 16 was to cap him to tie him to Wales, the same as Woodburns is now at 17. Wilson has played one game for Liverpool and Woodburn has played 7 - They are just called up because they are at a big club and eligible. Wales are streaks ahead of us obviously but imagine the uproar if we called up 16/17 year old players who hadn't/had barely represented their club side!

dipped flake Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Pressley's job appers to be to look for young guys in england that qualify for Scotland. I'm sure, or hope anyway, that we have people in Scotland checking on the young guys playing here, so not sure what the problem is. Apart, of course, that it is Pressley we are talking about, who must be abused at all times by the TA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he's back at "LA Galaxy II" having barely got any game time on loan at a really pish Coventry City team. Is Oliver still an SFA employee or was he booted out with Levein ?
