romanticscot Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I find it interesting that Ukraine hasn't announced its squad yet. Our was announced later than normal because of the Scottish cup final. Is there a deadline for squad announcements? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't even get in the derby squad, was offloaded to cover i injuries at qpr and was Shite while there. Thankfully we have Gordon as our number one. Ideally Marshall has one final flurry with good form so we have back up to give us confidence but I don't have any him at the moment. Fair comment but he was the best we had (fit and available anyway) for a good while and never really let us down as far as I remember. I will have no problem if Clarke keeps selecting Marshall as long as he is playing well for Hibs but aye Gordon is our best keeper by a long way at the moment. Pity he’s nearly as old as me. ☹️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcguffin Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 22 hours ago, Tartan blood said: I think we can drop the "cautiously" part, and just be optimistic. The fruits of our labour are in full display now. There is no way in hell at any time from 2000-2019 that a Scot starting in a European final wouldn't have been selected for a Scotland squad. Especially one as big as this. So it shows how deep our talent pool is that Wright hasn't been picked. Furthermore; McLaughlin, Scottish cup final starter, plays for Rangers, not picked; James Forrest, Scottish player of the year in 2019, plays for Celtic, not picked; then you have the US based players, umpteen players in the English championship, and a dozen from the SPFL that likely would have been a shoe-in in yesteryear. I'm overwhelmingly optimistic. All good points. Okay, you've convinced me. I'm optimistic about the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanderark14 Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Andy Robertsons interview is good. He discusses how he has sympathy for Ukraine but during the game he and the players have to be ready to give everything against Ukraine and try to achieve their own dreams of playing at a world cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im also guessing the other 2 goalkeepers will be in for a shout of some game time in the NL. We need to blood younger keepers sooner rather than later after all. Yeah, this really surprised me about why Gordon got 180 mins against Poland and Austria. I can't believe Clark or Kelly didn't get at least a half between them. I found that a really strange decision, if they aren't getting a shot in a friendly then realistically when are they going to get a chance.
