[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

I only noticed your post.

You certainly seemed happy about it. I'll wait and hope to get my happiness in the knock out rounds.

I'm certainly happy at the little fish wiggling on the end of my rod pal.

Ah, the old 'I was only fishing all along' routine.

I'll only be fishing in a week, or so, pal.

My country isn't even in the Euros. I'm sure the Scottish national side will be doing the same thing as me, fishing.

Every single person in England knows we are never winning a raffle with Gareth Southgate as manager. The guy would struggle to get a job in the SPL.

England could win it despite Southgate, but he's absolute pony. If man u were actually thinking about it Ratcliffe must be huffing glue in his spare time.

Time for Clarke to do one. Pathetic comments about the ref being from Argentina.

He's been so negative since we qualified. Never used the friendly games to try and develop a system for being in possession. Too many in the team were poor throughout the tournament and he did nothing to change it. Ralston for one barely played all season and it showed. McRorie was on the bench unused and had a good season playing week in week out in the same position.

The penalty shout is what he'll cling to but Armstrong bottled it. The guy can finish so why not try and score? Instead pull back and wait for contact, so cynical.

The tournament hasn't been great in general, hopefully the knockout phases get things going.

What is your country then?

I'll certainly be fishing soon, now that the can of worms has been opened.

Asian countries have as much trouble qualifying for the Euros as Scotland. You guys could have done with Patterson last night, a proper defender.

A proper defender who couldn't get a game for an SPFL Premiership club?

P.S. What is your country?

Yes, let himself down there, on the pitch with his negativity, off the pitch with his ignorant comments. I mean, what would a referee from that nondescript football backwater like Argentina know...

An Everton player who played for the wrong SPFL club I assume. Your second question is borderline creepy.

He is a very negative coach.

In fairness to him, we don't have a great squad of players, and we suffered from injuries.

As for the penalty, in my opinion, that would be given 9 times out of 10. I agree about his comments though, it was sheer petulance. Mentioning which country the ref was from was toe curling.

At the end of the day, we had to win one game against Hungary to probably qualify, and we didn't go for it. He can whine all he likes, but he can't blame that on referees. No matter where they come from.

I said a few days ago that I was struggling to build up interest in this tournament, and the group stages haven’t done much to change that.

You avoiding a simple question pertaining to our discussion is embarrassing but, even on the internet, that is probably the worst attempt at evading a question I have ever seen.

They cram too many teams in these days.

The top two teams from each group should go through, and that's it.

Please stay on topic about why Scotland are so abysmal at football.
