Couldnt care less about tonight's game. Could end 0-20 for all I care, I still feel sick that the home nations got through bar us. To blow a great chance like we did was typical. Haven't watched any of the game tonight I only seen the score through this just now. Utter pointless game because of silly points dropped through the campaign.

Surely teams like Gibraltar, Faroes, San Marino, Malta, Andorra and Luxembourg would be much better off just having a bi-annual tournament among themselves rather than being fodder for other team. This is embarrassing and its only Scotland they're playing. Surely these smaller teams would enjoy it more as well as it would be meaningful games for them.
Luxembourg? I think we got out of jail against them in the 94th minute Recently and the Faroes? Bit soon to be calling other teams cannon fodder where we are just now. Gibraltar scored their 1st competitive goal ever at Hampden ffs.

Luxembourg and Faroe Islands are second bottom and a couple of the other minnows have picked up draws.

That'll mean more to them than a diddy competition. The chance of playing against the likes of Ronaldo would be a pleasure as well, even if you're getting pumped.

Fixed it for you.

What a frustrating campaign this has been for Scotland?

We've played two games against Germany. Whilst there were times when the World Champions were clearly dominating, at no time did they threaten to run riot like other teams have done in previous campaigns against us. It would be easy to argue that two draws would have been fairer results and, if we had a Bale type player, we could even have won one of them.

Against Poland, we should have got more that two points. Four points should have been our minimum.

Against Ireland, we got 4 points, which is about right.

Against the minnows, the loss against Georgia was our only poor performance.

This has been a much improved campaign, but we are not getting the results that our displays merit. It just seems other teams have that knack of playing poorly but getting a winner or last minute draw - the Irish being perfect examples.

Very sensible post!

Poland 2-1 Ireland full time, the Irish out. Doesn't make Thursday's game hurt quite as much as our 2-1 win wouldn't have put us in the play offs anyway after this result.

Well done Albania 😀

They are indeed, so by no means out of it yet.

If the world champions had have beaten Ireland on Thursday, Scotland would be through to the playoffs right now

Correct. It's bloody gutting what happened on Thursday night, still can't believe it.

If we'd beaten a team ranked 140th odd in the rankings we'd be in the play offs, f*** all to do with the world champions & the reason I'm spewing..

Holland getting beat 3-1 at home to 10--man Czech Rep, van persie scoring with a well placed header...at the wrong end



2-3 7 mins left

[SteveHFC]

What a free kick from Turkey. Outstanding

[cabbageandribs1875]

the dutch emptied out

[JimBHibees]

Got to be said the Dutch were absolute torture to watch. All the did against 10 men was launch the ball into the box, incredible how poor they looked. Deserved to be out.

[Bristolhibby]

What amazes me is the surprise expressed at not qualifying. Every man and his dog in England knew at the start that Scotland wouldn't qualify.You guys really have to lower your expectation levels.

As do England when it comes to getting papped out at the group stages/2nd round.
