541ntees Posted June 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Cracking goal from Robertson poor performance in general but you can’t beat a last minute winner noticed a saints fan in front of me leaving early missing the 2 late goals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garydavidson Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 A goalkeeper from Perth finally made the Scotland squad! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49481190 Some strange choices in there, players who aren't getting a game and players who haven't cut it at international level. I think Steve Clark has saved me the bother of suffering through the next two games Grant Hanley is just awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abernethy Saint Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 There’s no way we’re qualifying through the group. Hopefully, Clark is experimenting prior to the play off games in that back-door qualifying thingy nobody remembers the name of or understands.

Saint Paul Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 Definitely some strange picks in the goalkeepers and defence. Hanley has always been a bomb scare, so cant understand why he is in the squad. Surely there are other players out there that Clark could be looking at. Midfield continues to look strong, but we are lacking upfront again as well. Surprised that Fletcher wasnt included as don't really see where the goals are going to come from. So, we have dodgy keepers, dodgy defenders and no goal threat - I think we can predict how the next two games are going to go.

Tranmere Saintee Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 Must admit, I was hoping Clark would be a breath of fresh air, but already going down the route of bringing in players with virtually no game time, players from the third tier of English football and guys who have let the team down several times in the past. sleepless and sixties saintee 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
541ntees Posted August 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 To think that Gordon Bain Kelly Archer and Macgregor aren’t in the squad - Zander must be gutted not to be in there As for Hanley - he has his limitations but he turns up every time and you know he’ll throw himself in front of everything and considering the injuries players like Liam Lyndsey and Jason Kerr are not playing in the English premiership. was hoping the thumb would be back but I’m guessing he spoke to him and it’s came just a bit too soon for him. Not sure why fletcher isn’t there esp when naisy has hardly played. our strongest position is mf but I’m worried that if we play mcginn Macgregor and Christie they are all left footed.

Yep, I felt absolutely sure Stevie Clarke would pick players on merit from the less fashionable clubs. I lost interest in Scotland a long time ago, but I was prepared to get interested again with Stevie in charge. Now I'm back to complete indifference.

jez1971 Posted September 9, 2019 Report Share Posted September 9, 2019 Never bought into the Clarke hype. West coast media darling who will get the time others wouldn't. Tactically naive and still picking some of the old guard. All is well though cos at least we're npw training on a decent surface though, eh Snodgrass?! On the plus side at least we won't need to worry about Engerland ending their long trophy drought next year, judging by the strength in depth of the Belgians and French and the re-emergence of the Dutch.

Cagey Posted September 9, 2019 Report Share Posted September 9, 2019 A bit better tonight but didn't keep the back door shut. I think if we played like that against Russia which is the one we needed to win,we would have won. We were never going to beat one of the best teams in the world. The best manager in the world couldn't do much with the players we have & there is no sign of Scotland having a system of bringing players through. Most of the decent young players in Scotland end up with OF & disappear into oblivion. 541ntees 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
