Strachan said there would be lots of changes so that line up is unlikely as it's too near Friday's team

However there is a lot of anger that both sides may field weakened or second string line ups due to how much people are paying to go to the game

I wasn't at the game last night but just wondering would there any craic/drinking with English fans before and after the game like there was with our lads?

Or will there be a complete separation of the two sets of fans?

Have to admit I met a good few English fans at the euros and they were bang on and very nice and not like the Rule Britannia vermin that usually travel to away games.

I think we can expect lots of team changes due to injuries and Gordon perhaps wanting to take a look at other players. I can see us lining up like this (or something like it):-

Craig Gordon

Steve Whittaker

Gordon Greer

Russell Martin

Andrew Robertson+

Scott Brown

Charlie Mulgrew

Darren Fletcher

Shaun Maloney

Ikechi Anya

Steve Naismith

Irish - I think the situation will be completely different on Tuesday. This game will be a magnet for bampots like the English Defence League to come up here and cause all sorts of grief.

Think the England fans will be kept in a specific area of the city and escorted up to Parkhead.

Merchant City apparently.

I currently live down in London and according to news reports a number of their ticket allocation has been returned unsold so don't expect a big following.

Has never been a better chance to beat them..

Really? England are playing pretty well right now.

There's been times in the past when we've had a much better team than them but not at the moment.

I'd guess that the attendance may (at best) be around 40,000. Just an educated guess mind.

Appreciate the SSC website's not been the most reliable for explaining ticket availability but there's less than 1000 seats left for sale...

They mentioned on the radio this morning that Marshall is carrying a wee knock, so almost definitely Gordon making his amazing comeback complete!

I don't think there will be very many other changes (initially anyway). Looking for a positive result with the guys desperate to maintain the momentum in the last game of the year.
