daviebee Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Brilliant second half performance. They were chasing our shadows for 45 minutes. Great character after having whatever game plan we had royally fked 5 minutes in and then again a minute after we equalised! A wee bit disappointed we didn't score more goals considering how vastly superior we were but would've settled for 3-2 at HT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fannies. They were class A cunts. Fuck them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian Craig Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Poor first half performance but great in the second half. One thing this side has is guts. What a wee diamond Billy Gilmour is. Played some great passes and looked calm on the ball. McGinn was everywhere even though he looked knackered after an hour. We deserved the win no doubt. Think McGinn is suspended for Faroes match though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weekevie04 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 WOW, what a second half! The turnout from the first 45 was truly unbelievable. Patterson, Dykes, and McGinn all basically turned in zero to hero performances, especially Paterson who had a pretty poor first half, he really had a brilliant second half, what a talent. McGregor had a brilliant game, outstanding. Robertson and Tierney were both excellent. Adams has some moments and is a great addition to the squad, but he needs four chances for every goal. Dykes is well, his own man, he alone has me going from despair to joy and that was just his performance tonight. What a spirit, comeback and performance really. That second half was the best I've seen us play in a LONG, LONG time, possibly since that 3-1 win over Kazakhstan. Also, the gallus nature of the team, the fighting spirit, that was a HUGE win tonight and that many Scotland teams would never have achieved, it would have ended 2-2. Now, on to Torshavn. 1/2-0 would be fine. They are a very decent side, the best of the minnows IMO, and even if Israel beat them well, I'll honestly take a 1-0 right now for us and a meh performance. Well done everyone in a blue shirt tonight. FANTASTIC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also had a missed pen, a goal disallowed and 2 sitters. Should have been a pumping! We're coming together nicely and Clarke deserves a lot of credit post Euros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conversely, McCoist’s optimism seems to be matched with this team’s fight and belief. I can’t help but think that if Provan had been on pundit duty, we would surely have lost 2-1!

Debian - whether I have kids or not is immaterial to the discussion (full transparency - I do have one). Anybody taking a kid to a game involving Israel should recognise that there is a possibility that they may be subjected to opinions that they would not normally hear on their local Main Street. Much the same as when I was taken to my first Thistle-Rangers game in 1966, and I naively asked the question 'Dad - what's fenian blood?.' I wasn't allowed to a Thistle - OF game thereafter while living in the family nest. We have to eradicate these things or accept them - in Scotland the procedure is to do the latter.

Provan said a number of years back that he was "finished" with our national team after 1. Jock Stein allegedly promised him he'd start a big game but left him on the bench when it came (Boo funking hoo Davie, that's happened to most players at least once in their careers) 2. Claims he was "singled out for abuse" by Scotland fans at the 1982 World Cup. (Lies) He's a very bitter, twisted man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blantyre_Braveheart Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Now we just need rid of Crocker and we'll be sorted. He's English but Clive Tyldesley has absolutely fantastic chemistry with McCoist and does a lot of research for his Comms. Hopefully a decent young Scottish commentator comes through but all of them seem to be on BT or BBC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
