Why the gloom?

We are out? Bollocks. 1st, I would say yes, 2nd? Absolutely. Austria only beat The Faros 3-1. We are in with a shout. A bit of luck, and Clarke sticks with players in their best position, we can defo get 2nd. Its no as if we are shite. We have shown signs of good atacking football. Maybe now that we are chasing, could be a good thing. I have faith in this squad. The talent is there. We are no gonnae become "Brazil" overnight. Have some patience folks. I know its frustrating,  bit who ever said it wouldn't following Scotland. Onwards and Upwards. Get fuckin intae them. Scotland Forever...🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

We’ve no chance of finishing 2nd after that performance. 

But if players are reading this forum and becoming discouraged, we’ve got greater problems than just not being very good. 

I'm still optimistic. We will get 2nd. Have faith ya bawbags......🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍👍👍👍👍🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

We are shite. Clarke was never the man for the job in the first place.

Clarke is a Craigie Broon throwback for me. Pragmatic till the end. He's a realist, not a dreamer. Until we embrace a massive shake up from top to bottom he's pretty much all we've got 😔

BUT.. we won that penalty shoot out so he’s safe for a while.

If we’d lost that penalty shoot out, we’d probably be in the hunt for a new manager now.

We don’t need to continually go for one of our own though. I want an exciting foreign boss capable of changing our system up a bit.

I agree but until we change the rest of the infrastructure or allow someone to come and tailor all of it towards the national team you're just tinkering, like the Berti era 🙅‍♂️

Recent history suggests otherwise. I’ll still watch every game and kick every ball but it’s the hope that kills you, so fuck hope 😂

The negativity.

I am used to it.

 

Read my 2 wins away powt.

 

said we would qualify... 154 replies telling me I was talking shit.

 

qualified.

Are we two games away from winning this group?

154 replies on a 131 replied thread is damn impressive 👍

qualified.

I think the negativity is justified. There should have been a bounce from qualifying. It's not happened at all. We seem happy to stagnate. It's looking more like qualification was a rare moment in the sun than an actual improvement by us 😔

5 games without a win, there’s fuck all to be optimistic about. 

And the performances have been pure shite as well. That was grim tonight. I was optimistic after Austria but that just proves how much of a mug I am. 

Israel knocked it about comfortably and should be ragin they didn’t win that.

The fact we are will be 2nd on Wednesday 

we came from behind twice to secure points 

 

3/4 last games we are extreme favourites for.

 

we are in a major tournament.

 

 

 

more reason to be optimistic than ever before in the the last 20 Years.

That’s an opinion, not a fact. 

We came from behind three times, not twice.

You followed us before?

Yes.

No.

Depends what you want. 

Don’t get me wrong, seeing us at a tournament will be brilliant but the fear is we’ll turn up, defend and sit back and not score a goal in 3 games. 

Then the reality is we’re out the euros, struggling in the qualifiers and little to get excited about.

The negative football is brutal to watch.
