Scott7 5,452 Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Was there ever a tournament with so many last minute goals? Albania streets ahead of Scotland btw. If they had a finisher like Shankland they might have beaten Spain. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,265 Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Just watched the Croatia/Italy game,shame for Croatia but as they used the Tavernier/Goldson handbook on defending suppose it was their own fault. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 4,885 Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 There are obvious limitations to what the Scotland squad could have achieved. However, the manager didn't make a timely or coherent attempt at beating Hungary. That isn't to say that we would have won but not at least giving it a go just isn't on. Over his time, Clarke has done fairly well but it is now time for a change. He would better suited to Aberdeen when their new Scandinavian gets the bullet. Steve Clarke and his dour expression would be at home, looking out to a grey and unwelcoming North Sea 😂 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that's true. We have some good players who play for Liverpool, Man U, Arsenal. Missing Hickey, Lewis Ferguson and Patterson was maybe a big blow but then again no guarantee Clarke would pick any of them. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uilleam 5,597 Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Clarke, it may now be revealed, exclusively to Gersnet, is an agent of the Labour Party, his cunningly stage managed incompetence, and inability to rally and inspire the troops, leading, as planned, to serial failures on the pitch. These disasters for Scotland prevented the upswing of national optimism that progress in the tournament would have brought, consigned national pride to the midden, made the plain people of the country embarrassed and ashamed, and, thus, ensured that there would be no high hopes, nor springs in the steps of the electorate, on July 4th, confounding the Nationalist Party, and its knavish tricks. It may be difficult to view Steve Clarke as a latter-day Knox, but he has tied the feet of a dancing nation: and a' fur its ain guid, ken. Such sacrifice. A knighthood, surely? You're welcome. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a World Cup, and a Holyrood election in 2026? Starmer might want to engineer a failure to qualify. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
