The_Dark_Knight Posted November 15, 2019 Author Share Posted November 15, 2019 If we were going to call up Porteous we might as well have pulled Gilmour and Hornby from the under 21s, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was any of those nationalities he would have 4 or 5 caps by now. The 17 year old boy from Spurs who’s never played is obviously making his debut for Ireland this weekend.

Gilmour should play this game and then get his first cap against Kazakhstan on Tuesday - even if its just 15 minutes. No doubt we'll wait til he's 23.

You can't just throw raw talent into the international arena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To a certain extent, but he´s proving himself by playing bits here and there for Chelsea. I would reward that with 10-15 minutes against Kazakhstan. A first cap, and experience too.

weekevie04 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 A decent start, although its looking quite difficult to break them down and limited to long range efforts. Hopefully get the 3pts though. That draw with Lithuania already sticking out in the group! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killiefaetheferry Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I'm actually with you. Didn't make my sarcasm or disdain obvious enough. Fucking typical of us. All other small countries who have a talent on the fringes of a big club first team will fire them into the big squad. But oh noooooooo......not us, not Scotland.

LewisEDI Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 the standard from both sides has been appalling, none of the scotland players look like they could make a step up right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are crap and don’t even do what other crap countries do. Clarke is also touting the improvement under him in the press today. Unsure what planet he’s on, total space cadet.

ProudScot Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 George Johnston looks solid and is having a good game & Gilmour is the standout as you’d expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middleton looked lively when he came on, just seemed to lack composure even when we had an extra player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazmidd Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Aye let's just throw all these lads into the first team.... Can't believe people genuinely think doing this will magically change our fortunes. I am not panning these young lads but they are not ready and this game proved it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 That is one honkin U21 side. Ive seen Gilmour play 3 or 4 times now and I’ve yet to see what all the fuss is about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraemeTA Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Dunno what harvie was trying at the end. Was pretty poor, no real threat. Pish result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
