I suspect when the Ukrainians start the gamesmanship like diving.......any sympathy will go out the fucking window

Worst case is we go into the game all good spirited and with a genuine fair play attitude due to the circumstances that they as a nation have faced...and then them taking advantage of that cynically, pre-war Ukraine style, they then cheat us at every chance and professionally hack us to bits to get a win. While we cheer them on. How fucking stupid will we feel then.

It is so Scotland that this totally weird exact bizarre set of unique circumstances have come up precisely on time to derail our best chance in 24 years of qualifying for a WC.

After all this amazing effort the one team we had to beat (to face wales!) is now literally being cheered on by the entire rest of the world.

Sigh. Just fuck off.

I, for one, can't wait until we go 1 goal up and 50,000 folk break into a rendition of 'Graeme Souness you're a wanker, you're a wanker'  that'll be sweet!

I'm at the front of the queue to lead a rousing chorus of that one.What a total plank that guy😝 is.

This game of football seems to have turned into a self congratulatory twat fest.

There is some amount of absolute utter shite going about right now.

Then don't read it.. Everyone is entitled to their own passion, excitement, comments. This match is enormous. You want to sit and complain wae yir finger up shoved yir arse that's your problem..

'Cheer up Graeme Souness. Oh  what can it mean to a sad unionist bastard and a shite football team ' That would be apt.

It is quite ironic really. He oozes admiration for Ukraine fighting to remain independent but when Scotland dare to contemplate it he was against it in 2014. Sheer hypocrisy

Anyone getting the fear for this one 😳? Just seen the BBC breakfast report about the match, they were talking about the 3-1 game back in 2007, but then showing the Ukraine players crying and with the fact we'll be singing their anthem, this is adding up to something in not looking forward to. They might lack match practice, but remember they are still a good side and they were unbeaten in their arranged friendlies

Its a tough game regardless of the war situation. They have decent players playing in top leagues plus the shahktar and kyiv players are bound to be decent. Pretty sure shahktar usually play champs league most seasons and have reached the last 16 in the past. 

The home advantage should help us and we need our so called stars to pull out big performances. 

I predict a 2-1 with mcginn and adams scoring our goals.

To be honest players crying in press conference show them to be in a brittle state of mind mentally which cannot help them. Forget the crap about everyone wanting them to win - it counts for nothing. Giro d'Italia just ended with no Ukrainians in the top ten. Stoltman won World's Strongest Man the other day - the Scot pipping a Ukrainian. French Open rolls on towards the latter stages with no Ukrainians players left in the tournament.

Totally agree

Someone asked the question the other day, would you give a shit about football if your home country was being attacked by a much bigger nation. My answer would be fuck football

OK. Who's the 2nd maddest Russian after Drago?

I'd have to go with Rasputin for 4 reasons.

He was mad as fuck.

He has a very distinctive look that can be easily replicated.

He comes with his own catchy song.

He has 'putin' in his name.

I've had the fear for the past week! 🤣

They're a good side with a more than decent chance of winning tonight, which is why all this patronising of them and false bonhomie is completely unnecessary.
