Incredibly after that shite, we are probably only a couple of good results away from making the play offs for the next world cup finals given how this crap competition works Link to comment

Yes, if we can somehow beat the real Czech team at home, split the two games with Slovakia and draw in Israel we won't be far away Link to comment

Unfortunately there still a lot better than us. Link to comment

It was shite but no fucking chance is that the worst. You must be younger than me (40) cos ive seen far worse than that. Too many to mention (portugal 5 nil 1993 springs to mind) wales 4 nil earnshaw hatrick Then all the dismal defeats and no score draws v borat XI over the years. edit: if we do miraculously make it to a competition i think the players would lift their game and give a good account of themselves.

Simply Red Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Levein v Czech Rep was far worse to watch than that. Excruciating Link to comment
WesthillWanderersFC Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Watched Scotland tonight for the first time in a while & forgot how bad they actually are to watch. Aberdeen like, but at least Aberdeen are your team. Absolute fucking muck to watch. All over the place at the back, so lucky to win against a Czech B team. Not an earthly that lot are getting through a play off. Will be lucky to beat Israel at home, but have next to no chance of beating (probably) Norway away from home. Thank fuck it’s over for a wee while. 1 Link to comment

I think it’ll just take a bit of success (qualifying) to ease that pressure a bit. Can we get that, probably not. Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I can’t for the life of me figure out why Clarke wants to waste McTominay at CB, especially after seeing how shite he was there v Israel Link to comment
Studebaker-90 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Possibly because he isn’t good enough to play in midfield but Clarke wants to accommodate him because he’s at a premier league club? Link to comment

daytripping Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Clarke isn't the answer, needs a change while we're still in with a shout. On paper we have not bad players. 1 3 Link to comment

Excruciating I was at Hampden for a friendly v Australia a good few years back that we were beaten in. That was absolutely dismal but at least the result meant fuck all. Highlight was an inflatable shark or crocodile Li-Lo getting thrown around the n the crowd. Link to comment

Ten Caat Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Horrendously inept performance, Czechs deserved a draw at the very least but I guess all that matters is the result in the end. McTominay must never again be deployed in a back 3. He was shite again but it's not the loon's fault....McKenna would be shite if he was played on the right wing, why the fuck Clarke keeps on shoehorning players into the side in positions they don't play at club level baffles me. Once again Robertson was utterly ineffective bar winning us the penalty. Fleck and McLean no better (although no worse either) that the 2 Celtic players they replaced. Unbeaten in 5 games sounds great...but by Christ the style of football we play should be patented as a new treatment for chronic insomniacs. Clarke makes McInnes look positively adventurous when it comes to tactics. Link to comment

Sonoftherock Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Clarke needs to find a settled line-up... this would help enormously! Almost impossible given the number of call-offs lately! Dykes one of the few plus points... still amazes me that an Australian, with extremely limited technical ability, who's main strength is running around and being aggressive, is the best we can do upfront.

muttonhumper Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I did see this last night, but with kick off at 9.45pm and my first beer at 11.45am I was never going to recall much. Wis nae my fault, circumstances dictated. The little I do recall was that it was nae good, and it appeared to be from Olomouc going by the funny protractor shaped stand. Flashback to 2009, snorting absinthe and being personally assured by McGhee at the team hotel after the match that he will sort the side out. "I'll fix this, don't worry. I've got it in hand". ? Edit - Retracted by virtue of snowflake / woke fucktard pressure. Going by comments on here though my vague recollection of an awful performance seems vindicated. 1 Link to comment
Sonoftherock Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Just saw the Northern Ireland highlights there... would probably be for best if we get beaten by Israel in the semi-final! That big lad upfront for Norway is an absolute beast of a player. Dread to think what he'd do to our defense! Link to comment

Oli McBurnie pulled out injured then played for his club in a friendly i believe. Should surely be an easy decision for Clarke - you wont be getting another call-up you fucking useless scab hun cunt.

Very negative and hard to watch, but was effective for them. Couple of good results against celtic and the rangers boosted things. Link to comment
