Texas Pete Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 With less than a week to go until our biggest match for years you would expect the TAMB to be buzzing. Is there just that much apathy due to us being gash for years or has this forum just died a death? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noctonjock Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 What can we say that hasn't been said Pete? Folk are probably thinking a defeat is on the cards therefore nothing to add and same faces in the squad and will be same line up. I'm not very confident about 10/6 to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Pete Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 True. It's a sad state of affairs when we can't get up for a game like this though. I'm sure it will be a great atmosphere on the day and hopefully a good result but it just seems that most folk have accepted defeat already. A couple of years ago the TAMB would be full of enthusiasm for a few weeks before each game, even against less glamorous opposition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenfrewBlue Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Strachan and his habit of picking the same old tired losers is the main reason I have no enthusiasm. We'll play well at the start against England then they'll score. We'll recover only to lose another two goals in a gutless final 20 minutes. You've seen the film before, several times. And the SFA's insistence that Scotland games should cost an arm and a leg. Feck them. There's no entertainment value in their product. There's no pride in supporting a bunch of over paid kvnts who don't really care enough.. I'll exempt a couple of players from that but only a couple.

Great Scot Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 C'Mon guys there's so much crap going on in the Workd just now we should all be up for Saturday as I believe we can win A win was needed against Slovenia we did it and played well and I think that finally there are things to be positive about, the performances of Armstrong Griffiths and others there gives me grounds for enthusiasm. Ryan Fraser and Tom Cairney are being rumoured to play this Saturday and at this stage let's all get right behind Scotland! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm behind the team, but I won't be going to a Scotland game again, unless the pricing improves or the product on the pitch massively improves. I wouldn't pay to watch a movie that was gash, so why do that with football? Armchair supporter for me for a while I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As unless you are a celtic or maybe hibs fan. It is also overpriced and even more shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordyA88 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I am definitely up for the game this week. We will be up against it for sure but this is what we live for as Scotland fans. Whilst it's unlikely it's not impossible we get the win and hopefully the place will be rocking come 5pm on Saturday. Alba gu bràth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't been to a game since the start of the season but that's not too unusual for me the last few years as the football has been dire and the cost is ridiculous when there's 3 kids to take.

Ally Bongo Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I dont know anyone including myself thats really up for it apart from a couple of half hearted texts to arrange a pub to watch it in I'll probably make excuses and not bother - have got rid of Sky Sports too It's been a combination of things that finished it off for me - the final straw being 19 September 2014 SFA incompetence, mismanagement, corruption, lack of ambition and foresight for the 40 + years ive followed the National Team when it was clear to everyone and his dug that we were going on a downward spiral is the main driver for my apathy And the old saying is true - once you lose it you never get it back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
