manc_don Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 This makes no sense (bar Kenny). Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/
KennyFuckinPowers Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Kenny McLean & Mark Reynolds called up for the fixture vs England. Surprisingly, or probably not actually, no Graeme Shinnie. Obviously happy for those involved, surprised at Reynolds but we do have rank rotten defenders in the national team, so hope he makes his case to start. P.S Rico, apologies in advance if I have overlooked someone else thread Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-189921
KennyFuckinPowers Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Defenders: Anya (Derby County), Berra (Ipswich Town), Kingsley (Swansea City), Martin (Norwich City), Reynolds (Aberdeen), Robertson (Hull City), Tierney (Celtic) Looking at that actually, there is every chance he might get a start Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-189922
Nips_and_Tatties Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Sorry but Mark Reynolds? That's outrageous. You'll see why if he plays. Sorry Mark Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-189923
manc_don Posted May 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Sorry Kenny, moved this in to the topic i'd already set up It's absolutely ridiculous that Shinnie isn't in there, given that McGinn is a championship player. But we shouldn't be surprised, WGS has done it before. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-189925
wi_09 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 I fully expected Shinnie & McLean to be included in this squad. Only because it means they have 2 weeks less summer break after the final before being back in for pre-season. Would have expected WGS to do anything he can to help the Dhims in preparation for next season given he has overlooked them so many time previously. Well deserved call up for McLean. Good on Reynolds too even though it is a complete surprise. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-189926
donsdaft Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 This game is to be played on a stupid late date isn't it? On that basis I would prefer if no Dons players were selected. Reynolds and no Shinnie though just shows what an arsehole Strachan has become. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-189928
Jute Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Shinnie's on going exclusion is farcical but expected from the current incompetent fuckers managing our National team. Reynolds call up is odd but given the lack of talent at centre back available is he any worse than those called up previously. McLean's place is deserved.

Nips_and_Tatties Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 It's like calling up Darren Mackie and leaving out Denis Law. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-189931
Ten Caat Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Unfortunately Shinnie is paying the price for WGS allowing lego muncher to return. Once we get humped by the guffs he should be gone forever and hopefully Shinnie gets the call up his form has deserved for the past 2 years..

Madbadteacher Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 But Reynolds remains? WGS has really lost the plot now. I really haven't been bothered about games with the "national" team for several years now and this just confirms I'm right not to be.

RicoS321 Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 You are joking? What is the logic behind this?! Standard practice for internationals I think. Happened to Rooney and Hayes before. They start with 30 and reduce it to 25 or so. Bit weird, but in fairness to Strachan not entirely unusual. Obviously, he'll have text McLean at 14:30 on Saturday.

Could've said the same about the final beforehand...ha. I'll watch Scotland til the day I die. Donsdaft for such a hater of England, don't tell us you won't be watching it praying that we beat their erses. Come on. Old fixture in the world and still up their with the best by a mile.

donsdaft Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I don't hate England (it's the English I don't like) Well of course there's more to it than that but this is a football thread so lets stick to that. Will I watch it? Probably not. Do I know when it is? No but I read on here a while ago that it's ridiculously late. Do I want Scotland to win? Who gives a fuck Do I want England to lose? Absolutely 100% Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-190378
rocket_scientist Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Does it matter? I mean, honestly, is anyone going to bother to watch this shite? I also use the self-protection strategy of feigning disinterest when I'm certain that the result will be averse. But I will be watching and hoping. The fact I despise Strachan, McGoo et al at the SFA invokes contradictory emotions. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-190380
Nips_and_Tatties Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Was just checking out the Hampden goals video from the daily record. Was there in '85 when Gough scored right in front of me and the mates. Brilliant win in a terrible pishing down day. Anyone else seen us win against Engerlund? I think we can get a result against these bastards.we must get our defence in order. COME ON SCOTLAAAAAANDDDDDDD Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-190703
donsdaft Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 I've never seen us lose against England. 1974, 1984 and the Gough one, 1986? Somehow got tickets for the stand in 1986, Hun bastards standing up for the English national anthem, me shouting " stuff the queen up your arse" Was it 1985? Seem to remember 2 Hampden games in a row for some reason. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-190714
Nips_and_Tatties Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Hey Donsdaft That's pretty impressive! It was 1985 yup. 1974 the crowd was 94,500.fooking amazing!! Did you feel squashed? You must be a lucky talisman for us. Could you please get yer butt to Hampden for this one? Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-190715
donsdaft Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 I was up in the old north stand, I remember the thing shaking. I was 15 years old , we were going to the world cup and independence was just around the corner. Those were the days. I'm away to watch it on YouTube Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8094-scotland-england/#findComment-190716
