Castilla Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Levein only beat Lithuania and Lichtenstein in competitive games though so no idea where it's coming from...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braveheart_lynch Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I believe the above is their competitive records. Levein's record only looks OK when you start factoring in friendly results v Faroe Islands / Cyprus etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bzzzz Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 It's all a bit deja vu, is it no? I wonder if all the folk who were desperate to get rid of Levien will be as desperate to get rid of Strachan? Their records are pretty much identical. Levein was a self professed visionary...

thplinth Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 That's when you realise how pish Levein was. Whoah who was on here just recently trying to equate Levein's record with Strachan's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ormond Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Whoah who was on here just recently trying to equate Levein's record with Strachan's? Eh? You've got the wrong guy there. I said Strachan has failed. I stand by that. I never said he was the same as Levein. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McVinceSCT Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Why do some people on here think it is Strachan's fault if we lost a goal in the 2nd minute of the Poland game? And how can he be responsible for the late Poland equaliser on the 94th minute? He surely made one mistake in Georgia when we played for the draw, but except it and don't think he's responsible of something. He must do with average players. I think there is a health problem in Scotland too. Look at Glasgow at 4:00 in the morning on Saturday and Sunday. They surely have the same problem in England, but they have far more ressources.

Ally boy 69 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Been pretty obvious watching us since Strachan took over that we been improved under his regime...Georgia apart which was horrible....3 points there and we would have a play off which would have been perfectly acceptable. There will be more bumps in the road and we just don't have any top quality players but virtually all the tartan army are right behind WGS and that's no happened for many a year. Onwards and upwards and firmly believe we can get to world cup ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 but virtually all the tartan army are right behind WGS and that's no happened for many a year.Are we? He isn't hated like Burley and Levein, that's all. He has been a failure, quite possibly an abject failure. I don't think he will turn it round, but hope he does. I for one don't buy into the whole 'In Gord we trust' nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robroysboy Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Have been told this morning that terms were agreed last night on wee Gordy staying on for another 4 years. There is a clause in it that this will be reviewed if the Play-Off's are not met for WC Qualifying. To be announced later today, or first thing tomorrow morning.

Orraloon Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 If we'd won away in Spain under Leveing we'd have got a play-off. Burley had the same about beating Holland IIRC. Levein hardly had any call offs and we got the same crap about great squad morale under him as you're spouting now. I can assure you that 12000 fans were not!! It was the same at the Poland game, i was storming up the stiars to leave fuming at our shitey defending and loads of fecking idiots are clapping. Some times you get the team you deserve, those idiots deserve a shite team. OK 11,997. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People can say any old crap as long as it suits them. if we won the total up v Georgia and hung on against poland we would have.not that far away.if ireland never got a freak result v germany we would be in play off. Not that far away. Suppose it's a fine line. But we were not as bad as folk are making out. Close games with well matched teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weekevie04 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Glad he's staying on. There have been mistakes, and I hope he is willing to change out of form players as he does have his favourites. Not qualifying is a major blow though, there's no denying that and the last few results in the campaign were so dissapointing, but on the scale of it and from Levein it's night and day, and we are a better side. Maybe I'm celebrating failure or a big sook, but it wasn't really until after the Gibraltar game that I really wanted him to stay. His interviews fresh after that game really struck with me how happy/passionate and proud he is to be our coach. Sure if that were the qualifications, we would all be Scotland managers, but although the dip in form at the end is worrying - I think the heartache (AGAIN) will push us on to the WC qualifying.
