Still I hold out little hope of much to cheer. We'll play well enough to nearly beat them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is going to put their arm around you and tell you everything is going to be all right. Just get behind the team and support them. I thought I was a negative c**t, but this is ridiculous. You are Scottish, something to be proud of. this is England, Wembley, World Cup qualifier. Just go and get behind the team. Win, lose or draw, support the team and your country. Totally agree. I am absolutely buzzing for this game. We will play better than the recent double header and we have a chance. We have been poor, yes, but they are the worst top seed and vulnerable with Southgate as their boss. I was there when we beat them in 99 and no-one gave us a chance after losing at home. I was also there in the recent 3-2 defeat and we played well that night and were unlucky to lose. I will be singing my heart out and supporting the boys fully. If the players have belief we can win. Come on Scotland! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonmk Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Aye, go and spend a load of time and money on any old rubbish we are served continually. No thanks. Bought the t-shirt, and its worn out now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's either in your heart or it's no. Fair enough if you don't want to spend your money - we all have priorities to balance. Your choice, but there will be loads of folk in London looking for a ticket - perhaps you should consider making yours available to someone who wants to get behind the team.

giblet Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Never even attempted to organise myself for this one. We all have tipping points. Will go to the pub and cheer them on but have finally realised my days getting worked up about Scotland games have past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My support will always be there, just st at the minute, not so much as previously. Most club supporters are the same, different things come along and they move on from physically going to games. i don't have a ticket for the game, logically, it's on my doorstep, and I can drive there for £10 fuel, and he home at a reasonable time, unlike home games, but, even given the cost, and relative time saving, I just can't get excited over it. I'm not one of the "tartan army" who go to games to get hammered and have a party in the street, with the football coming second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabtheBruce Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 The football is the reason the vast majority of us go; we try and enjoy it as well amid some slim pickings, but we are due a good result and performance. If the team are struggling they need our support even more. It's not often easy being a Scotland fan, but I always fancy us and travel more than merely in hope tomorrow morning.

I went through a wee phase like this in early nineties ( and we were better then and qualifying for tournaments). It was still ultimately disappointing albeit at a much further stage in tourney. Luckily, EURO 96 came along, was on the doorstep and I recaptured my interest. I am fortunate in that I have seen my team in finals tournaments and win at Wembley but it still stirs the passion to the point that when I miss a game due to working away, I feel kind of guilty!! For the record, I do not get hammered either; try watching Scotland stone, cold sober!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JECK Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) After getting a flicker of a buzz at the start of this week and last couple of days (seemed impossible after last month) it is tempered with a gut feeling that the belief amongst the majority of the squad has basically gone and they know strachans time is virtually up. I'm sensing something similar to Belgium away a few years ago where we basically laboured to a 2 nil defeat.

KirkieRobRoy Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Crumbs of comfort - they're not very good either, if much better than us. Also, whenever I've seen anything of their home games on telly, Wembley has seemed something between a morgue and a dentists' waiting room. Wulnae be that on Fri, so will it phase England's fancy dans? No, probably not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Hunt Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I've got the buzz but would settle for a draw right now and that is sad really. It is supposed to be entertainment but not really sure watching Scotland is entertainment. Like going to watch Mel Gibson's Passion of the Christ. You are at the cinema but you cannae really say you are enjoying the film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regenmann Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I remember being devastated after the 2-0 defeat at Wembley in 1996 - I only feel indifference about tonight's game - wasn't even going to bother watching but I've been tempted out to the pub (going for a few pints with a mate I've not seen in ages - game is a minor sideshow).

simonmk Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 For those who are going, I really hope you get the result of your dreams tonight, it can be done, I've seen it, and wow, what a feeling when it does happen. Tonight might be that night. Enjoy yourselves, and stay safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
