Dalglish played one hundred games for Scotland and never pulled out of a squad. Nobody does that any more - whether born in Scotland or not. Players nowadays are soft. Dalglish withdrew from the 1986 World Cup squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawickta Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) Was speaking to Matt Phillips' Grandad in Central Station on Monday before the Albania game, apparently he was getting an injection on his ankle during the week. Whether that was enough to keep him out the Scotland games is up to you, suppose it comes down to his priorities.

Damn - there is going to be some mightily disappointed people here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it is heard of but it depends on the ulterior motive of people. For example - don't rate them, slate them and rock the boat as much as they can in the hope they ratchet up bad feeling and it somehow snowballs into them getting axed from the team. Mission accomplished for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Ryan Fraser has started for Bournemouth today - it'll be interesting to see if there are any snarky comments about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realise that probably almost all of our squad has done it at one stage or another. Axe them as well?
