Big Ramy 1314 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Well its finally here boys and girls. Not really much to say as it's all been said.. Cant wait.. Very curious to see the starting 11. Think we will start slow? Or will Clarke have us go right at them... Wonder if Billy Gilmour will get the nod... Best of luck Scotland....🏴🏴🏴 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I am trying to keep my positivity in check. If we play to our best and don't let the occasion get to us we can win and I reckon should win. We are on the rise whereas I feel the Czechs are in decline. Their threat will come from set pieces so we must be on our toes. Our pace will be the threat with the likes of Robertson and Tierney. Get them into the game and we are in business.

Burj_Alba Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Nothing to add to Big Ramy's comments so no idea why I am. Just killing time I suppose. Best of luck boys, only 12,000 there but hopefully 5 million plus cheering on from all parts of the globe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Just to add that Clarke and the 26 lads in the squad have a chance now to write themselves down into Scottish football folklore and become legends if things go well. The country is buzzing and right behind them and its great hearing people who you don't associate with football really getting passionate for this. Wow it is great being back - lets not please leave it 23 years again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 It’s not a must win today, but if we don’t win we will probably have to beat Croatia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan Chris Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Hmmm not huge on that selection. Would've had Adams starting. Infact looks very much a selection to try to nulify Soucek and the other big units the Czechs have. Guess plan is to keep things tight for an hour and then you at least have Adams, Gilmour, Forrest and Fraser all as options to throw on once game becomes a bit more stretched. To just play for a draw here would be a bit odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThistleWhistle Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 SSN just announced the team then half arsed note of Czech's then cut straight to an interview with Arsenal midfielder Jordan Nobbs to speak more about England's win yesterday 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan Chris Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Fleck not on bench either so perhaps Tierney had covid issue picked up late? (Although didn't he test positive last October). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think so, also I think there is a generational difference here: succeed or fail, it will be their own doing and not burdened with dashed expectations of the past.

Blantyre_Braveheart Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 No Tierney is a massive blow. McGinn, McTominay and Armstrong is probably the correct choice. Armstrong had a good game vs. Holland. I'd rather have had Adams than Christie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morrie21 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Tierney missing today is a hammer blow. The way he gets us on the front foot with his aggressive runs from left centre back is a feature of recent Scotland play I have really been enjoying. Damn.

exile Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 No Tierney is a sudden blow for us but presumably within the squad it is not a shock and they're managing it internally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
