RIP Scottish Football

[WA Toffee]

Not sure what the cause is, or what the answer is, but when you remember all the greats from the 80s that were winning European trophies, including our own Gray and Sharpe, something has gone fundamentally wrong.
If I recall correctly, the last Scottish player to win a European trophy may have been Paul Lambert for Dortmund in the 90s, there would have been at least a couple of dozen of them that won one in the 80s

Darren Fletcher I think

 

[Chris O'Connor]

Neil Ashton (Sunday Supplement) had a good line...

I wonder what's it like to play the worst team in international football?

Well San Marino will find that out later today

lol lol lol lol

 

[WA Toffee]

Darren Fletcher I think

Yep, forgot about him. Still a far cry from the 80s

Remember when people thought Kieron Tierney was a footballer?

But once they pulled the blue Scotland shirt on they were rubbish.
Wouldn't have mattered how well sharp played the sfa loved Dogleash.
I recall once the boos when he got subbed for sharp.Who came on and immediately nearly scored with a great header .
Those other rs players never replicated their club form for Scotland.

I like Scotland, fellow Celts, but I fear for them today. If any British side could come up with a way to lose against San Marino it is Scotland.

True. Scotland could have gone very far in the 82 and 86 world cups if they could have replicated their club form, but even Alex Ferguson couldn’t get the best out of them.

Can’t see it, we will thrash them 2-1

Two nil against the second worst team in world football.

McLeish must be breathing a sigh of relief.

Think Duncan is the higest scoring Scotsman in the prem era...

We can breathe a sigh of relief for Scotland but somehow congratulating them on winning 2-0 against San Marino seems wrong.

Why are they booing after a 2-0 win against fellow minnows? International geordies.

They were booing the San Marino team .
