Shit response. Weird cunt. 

 

We have plenty to play for. This constant doom and gloom outlook is bizarre. Gallagher is oldest outfield player in our squad. Plenty to be positive about, we had enough chances to win that and on another day we would. The weirdos who love to be negative will tell you different but we didn’t deserve to lose that game.

We did but we lack a real game-changer of a player that can come up with something special. Griffiths could have been that man but obviously he’s fucked it. We have an okay team with 3/4 good players but the rest are pretty uninspiring.

Lyndon dykes is garbage. 

I hate when strikers get the old, it'll come davie, nice davie etc. When davie has missed sitters.

Meanwhile the defence let in the 1 nil winner. Yer shite, I felt he tae watch him (their best player) etc.

So unfair since lyndon dykes missed at least one beautiful chance. He even had time to put it in his preferred foot. Rubbish. We were at least a bit better when he went off, but it was too late.

It doesn't take playing at a decent level to know that him being closer to the half way line than he was to his 18yard box is bad.  There's little to no benefit of him being there, if he was on the D of his box would still be in a good place to get to a ball over the top if needed and he'd have been in a much better spot for stopping that shot.

So the goalkeeper is only allowed as far as the D?

Cmon to fuck. It was an unbelievable goal. 

It was a fantastic goal, but even if Marshall was just 10 yards further back, he’d have saved it, if the lad even tried it at all seeing him further back towards his goal. 

A brilliant goal, but Hendry AND Marshall both culpable IMO.  

As much as there were faults at the goal, the fact the lad scored from 52 yards or whatever it was, summed our day up.
It’s a one in fifty attempt. Scotland didn’t get many breaks today.

Not sure why folk are defending Marshall for the goal. Great strike, but only made possible because Marshall was in the middle of nowhere.

We were unlucky. 2-0 Czech was very harsh, we had plenty chances and definitely didn’t deserve to lose. On another day or with a better striker we’d have won.

HAHAHA, you are ace, my point is he gains little to no advantage by being almost 40yards out his box compared to being 18-25yards out his box, especially when analytics will show that if a move breaks down where Scotland had the balls the chances are the ball is going to get cleared right over his head or the Czechs regain possession meaning he has a large distance to go back. Also he was very slow to react to the ball getting played to Schick, almost certain that had he been on the edge of his box he gets a hand on that easily.

Stephen O'Donnell is fucking shocking.

 

Said that right at kick off. He is the weak link.

He was fucking useless.

Outclassed, no arguments.

Czech Republic are no mugs on this showing IMO, but we're absolutely out of our depth at this level

I think you may have watched a different game.
Could just as easily have been 2-0 Scotland.
We didn't really get a break, though on some points, due to our own failings in front of goal. ?

Agree, he’s as culpable as Hendry.

If he was even 25 yards out from goal he’d have had time to get back, or the lad wouldn’t even have tried it. 

Jesus, he's way more culpable than Hendry.

The loss of that goal is 100% Marshall's fault.

You'd have to be an absolute fucking retard not to recognise this.

I fear for what England might do to us.

You best stay in your house under a blanket come Friday night then.

In the name of fuck.

England are mediocre pish.
Emphasised in their match v Croatia.

Behind 6 or 7 teams in that competition, and as per usual, will be binned the moment they face a decent one.

How many clear chances did they make?

Way less than Scotland did today for sure.

The Guffs will take 6 or 7 off them if todays performance is anything to go by. 

Fucking  wise up. They are  a mediocre, middling European football nation going by their performance yesterday.

Whilst I think England will beat us, some people seem to think they are world beaters. England looked average at best the other day, they are definitely there to be got at and that result today might just force us to have a go at them. 

Correct. Average at bets, and they certainly never beat us easily.

Scotland weren't that bad I didn't think.  0-2 was outrageous bad luck. 

Also correct.

It was, there's absolutely no denying that but to say the keeper wasn't in a terrible position is plain wrong.

Absolutely.

The goal conceded was 100% his fault.

He was practically on the centre circle for fuck sake.

He cost us the game, and for such a fucking retarded performance, and given the consequences of his idiocy, he should not play for Scotland again.

Much like Fergie did to Leighton for the 1990 Cup final replay Man U v Palace..
FUCKING BASICS. Fucking prick.

I admired your positivity but the better team won.

Whilst Dykes, Forrest, Robertson, and McTominay could have and should have done better with their respective chances, the Czechs had other goalscoring opportunities (the boy Schick had a very good chance to get his hat-trick) that David Marshall saved and prevented a right thumping. 

It could have been better, like you infer, however that purely would have been papering over the cracks of a woeful defensive performance.

Obviously never been a goalkeeper at a decent level so no idea what you are talking about.

If you think that Marshalls starting position at 40 yards out is an acceptable starting position for a goalkeeper then then I suggest that you have no fucking idea about the game.

Marshall should have been nowhere near the centre circle at any point of the game.
