Scotland squad

Get in there 

[BigAl]

It wasn't pretty but it was effective.

Get The Fuck In There 

[RicoS321]

Great result. Strachan would have lost us that, as would many managers before. Good resolve and a deserved win. 

Tuesday will be tough with a few out by the sounds of things. Taylor and Ralston a definite downgrade. McTominay, I think, suspended. 

[BigAl]

Clarke saying that Tierney & Hickey substitutions both precautionary but yes McTominay suspended

[Jute]

Thought we got sucked into physical battle with Irish in first half. Too static with Dykes up front. Second half we moved ball better and as Al said scored a good team goal. Was amazing to here how close an Irish accent is to A Glasgow one.

Wasn’t a classic by an stretch of the imagination. I stupidly decided to try and get the boys into watching it. Was a woeful first half so they didn’t watch much of the second with me. Second was definitely better and finally started to move the ball a bit better. Didn’t think we’d do it but cool as fuck penalty from christie in the end. Obviously if he’d missed he’d have been snake status. Was very worried we’d see the mongrel Gallagher on with the way injuries were going.

Agree with that a typical "British" game and we played into their hands.  Second half was much better though once we equalised we were far too gung-ho and that break-away so nearly cost us...reckon if the passer and receiver (don't remember either of their names) were the other way round they would have scored.

Hope Clarke plays basically the same formation on Wednesday and doesn't do a Smithy '91!

Or a Levein 4-6-0…

[Jute]

Next round of replacements. 
 

 

[RicoS321]

Kingsley is a great player, McKay not so much.

[RicoS321]

Dykes and Adams both fall ill, paving the way for the return of Oliver Burke?

Fuck Oli Burke, I'm away to charge my mobile and look out my Adidas Copa Mundial boots (circa 1980).

Steve, I'm ready and willing but maybe not so able

Whoa!

So out we have Robertson, Tierney, Cooper, McKenna, Hanley, Souttar, Patterson, McTominay, Dykes, Adams

Craig Levein's 4-6-0 might be an option after all although we might be struggling to find a back 4 at this rate.

No, dykes and Adams are both travelling and Adams confirmed he had trained and is available. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62959155

All things considered I would snap your hand off for a dull, stodgy 0-0 right now.  It is strange to say that given the horsing we gave them 5 days ago but such is life. 

[Jute]

Porteous starts so that’s us got a penalty at least.

That cheating bastard should be no where near our national side and if we lose, as i expect we will this evening  I sincerely hope this toxic  cheating cunt is responsible.

Bring on the boos from those that have forgotten just how much this cunt has cheated our team in the last year.

I think he's a decent player. Gallagher cheated us far more.

Anywhere to watch this for those not premier enough (I take it, it's not possible to pay a one off?)?

Got a YouTube link here, but you have to go to Kiev to watch. Commentary actually an improvement.

Will agree to disagree.

Porteous is an imposter as a professional footballer.

Gallacher might of cheated our club out of a wage nut he hasn't set out to cheat fellow professionals

Fucking VAR has to go, it's fucking awful. Never a pen for Scotland, but because the ref gave it, we don't get the subsequent corner and it's a drop ball. Ref makes a mistake, Scotland punished. Fucking anti football pish. 

[RicoS321]

And the fucking rank, miles offside but play on shite is fucking tedious too. Horrendous rule changes. Adults too childish to admit they got them wrong.
