Isreal V Scotland Euro playoff

Surely has to be more a case that Scotland can jo longe rodeo up financially, to be able to run solid academies to make competitive leagues.

Whilst it’s no shock seeing Rangers or Celtic win the League for the past 30 years. The Scottish teams were at least a little more competitive.

I remember the likes of Aberdeen getting a draw with Bayern not too long ago.

I just feel there’s no way to develop players with out backing nowadays.

Coaching is left behind, Scottish football is at rick bottom and they’re missing that quality.

I’m sat there seeing Robertson, McGinn and thinking yeah they’re good players, but in the 90s they had... Collins, McCoist, Lambert, McAlister, Hendry and Leighton, there was that competitiveness and experience.

The current crop has just two players who have over 30 apps, there’s no experience. Who gets the goals? McBurnie? shankland? Dykes?

They should get through, but no chance they’re beating Norway away, maybe Serbia, no chance they’ll stop Haaland in Oslo.
 
It will break my heart if the sweaties don't qualify !!
Time was when Scotland would have been in with a shout at international tournaments.
Now, qualification merely sells a few more widgets on TV and looks good on players' cvs so that their agents can suck a bit more cash out of them.

This is revisionism of the most shocking kind - they used to qualify for them, but they've never been in a shout of doing anything at them.

Wales have qualified for two major tournaments since the war and both times they did something that Scotland never have.
