Should get Darren Fletcher involved in the Scotland team as a coach, seems a really positive guy about the team.

Does he coach anywhere just now?

Not sure, he was coaching at Man U when he had that long term illness.

Shankland would’ve had this game finished by now.

I’ve always had huge respect for Darren Fletcher. Alex Ferguson does too.

Ha ha ha!

Shankland hasn’t scored a goal in Scotland’s top flight.

Hibs got the best Championship striker from last season for a decent price

Oops.

Scotland 8/15 and the Czechs 19/4 with bet 365. 🤔

Whats happening, are the Czechs putting out a 2nd team or what ? Its very bizarre

More like a 4th team.
Only two capped players in squad, one is 36.
We’ll struggle no doubt.



Shankland would make the difference.

Anyone of the opinion that sacking Strachan was a massive mistake?

We should be going out tonight and taking the game to them. If we sit back, their confidence will grow by the minute and we'll end up on the back of one of the most embarrassing results in Scottish fitba history.

Correct....but it’s Scotland we’re talking about here.
Without Shankland I can’t see where the goals will come from.

If we're relying on Shankland then we're in worse nick than I thought. 😁
Very short odds for Scotland

What time is the KO?
I assume it’s on Sky?

Try Google

Is it on there?

Genuinely, what are folks thoughts for Monday? I see the Czech FA have named the replacement squad.

I know folk are taking the **** and saying we'll still get beat but we really should be winning and quite comfortably.

My worry is us putting the ball in the net.

Is Shankland fit?

That's the problem we have at the minute and this will cost us points.

There's far too many international games these days. Get it back to midweek only, scrap the nations league and scrap the majority of these pointless friendlies that half the squad pull out of anyway.

Agree .

I'd play them midweek like before and keep the club matches for the weekends.

The nations league has replaced friendlies.

It won't be scrapped as Uefa have too much TV money to make.
Definitely preferable to friendlies. Maybe with a crowds back it will be better.

Can’t believe Stevie Clarke can’t put a good performing team out.

Maybe try playing players in their best positions rather than shoehorning in boys just because of who they are or who their team is.

I can accept Tierney playing in the centre given he's been playing there for Arsenal but Forrest at wing back and McTominay at centre half just annoys me.

To accommodate Robertson and Tierney in the same team both of them in that system we played on friday are effectively out of position.

We have a decent team on paper, just not working.

The difference with Scotland and some teams is that they have that 1 superstar players that lifts all the others around them. Bale with Wales and Lewandowski with Poland are 2 that stand out.

Wouldn’t mind it if it’s midweek but this stopping leagues every month or so is nonsense.
Do you like to see Northern Ireland do well, VoR?

International football doesn’t put me up nor down.
It’s just something to watch when nothing else is on.
Golfs on just now so happy days.
