For that group including France, Italy, Ukraine, Georgia, etc... My understanding is Ukraine left the meeting early and flew back to Kiev... Then refused to accept what everyone else had agreed... Then it went UEFA, which took up more time. That set of fixtures took weeks and weeks to be confirmed. Also, I heard the SFA asked for venues to be announced ASAP... Italy and Ukraine point-blank refused. I think Italy pushed it right to the 60 day (as was) deadline. Good ol' French didn't f*ck us about though. Pretty sure Parc des Princes was named 11 months before the Faddy match. He’s a genius again for Scotland they’ve been suckered in the parc de prince Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryWood34 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Avoided Ukraine in 3, Turkey in 4 and Northern Ireland in 5. Yes we got Norway but their form is very up and down. Haaland is the worry of course but let’s hope they play Arsenal just before it and Tierney batters him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Norway couldn't have been any worse from C. Georgia probably a mid ranking team from D. Cyprus mid ranking from E. Could have been a lot easier. Haaland is a killer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weekevie04 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 That is one of the HARDEST draws we've had in years. We know about Spain and Haaland/Norway. Georgia have gone up from D to C in the last few years and we know how to lose there. Cyprus - we really struggled against them. They're one of the better seeds too. So for anyone who doesn't like the Playoffs/Nations League - winning that could well save our bacon. Bring it on though. I'm going to go one away trip and I think Georgia might be the one!

Don't know if you went to any of the previous games, but its a brilliant place to visit. Best away game out of the 4 fixtures by a country mile.

DAVIDB46 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 With it being a five team group does that automatically mean we are sitting out June with , Spain in the nations league finals or could we be sitting out a different match day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErsatzThistle Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 This group is a good test. If our team is coming along as well as we like to think it is, then we should acquit ourselves well. You have to test yourself against the best sooner or later. Let's do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
