What a save!! Good header Dykes I think
Thought Dykes was going to make me eat humble pie there. What a save
***** subs
Why is Doak off. Was still putting a shift in.
Would have been keeping Doak on the park.
Might have kept Doak on for an another 10
Not sure about that sub. Doak still looked lively when we got him on the ball.
Christie and Shankland to the rescue with our most creative outlet going off :rolleyes:
got worse
1-1 croatia
var checking looks offside i think
Doak better be absolutely ****ed because that's utter nonsense otherwise.
Poland will be delighted with that sub.
Croatia 1-1 Portugal
Subs :rolleyes: Stevie wants us relegated :faf:
Disallowed for offside
Yup but so have they - great game to watch - could go either way - draw is fair just now but come on ScotlandQuote:

I agree, been a very open attacking game by both teams, surprised it took them so long to score.Quote:

Safe to say 2nd is gone now. But a winner here would be great!
He could have had a couple of goals, was unlucky off the postQuote:

Subs pretty much killed off our attack
San Marino winning 3-1 away to Liechtenstein.
Means they will win their group and be in a play off to qualify for the world cup [emoji23]

that's p@sh christie
SFA won’t get rid of Clarke.Quote:

And that’s the problem with Clarke. We need at least a goal and he replaces our main threat & brings on slab heid that’s score 1 goal all season. He needs to go.Quote:

Organised, strong, robust, has steel and a genuine attacking threat.
Everything our current Hibs team is not.
Yassssss
Never seen that coming, wow!
Yaaaaasssss
What a header! Great goal!!!
Based
What a goal.
Play off it is then.
bullet heider
What a goal, deserved that. We have been brilliant tonight. Proper Scotland performance
Deserved that tonight
:faf::faf::faf::faf::faf: Wtf do I know. Clarke a genius :aok:Quote:

**** me, glanced up at my screen and saw 2-1 and sighed assuming Poland had scored. I'll be damned.....:greengrin
That was very good
Good win in a tough place to go to, showed good resilience, nice to get a win near the end for a change.
Served Poland right for being on the attack and playing it back to the keeper
Another nod for Souttar been outstanding the last two games
What a great game and win.
Can't believe some on here wanted Clarke out recently. One of the best ever Scotland managers.
if only
Wanted him out for the Euro display mate. Changed my mind.Quote:

Into a playoff match for the top pool for draw for world cup group qualifying is it?
That was a very enjoyable game of football. Refreshing.
Souttar has been top, top player in these 2 games, very impressed.Quote:

Potential playoff opponents likely to be Greece, Austria, Ukraine or Wales. Oof
Thought he'd killed it with these subs. Never expected that at all, Robertson was dreadful all night as well. But Poland seemed to run out of steam.
Think we are pot 3 in WC qualifying unless Georgia beat Czechia tomorrow.Quote:

I think. All the pre game permutations were a bit confusing because so many different things could have happened.
FT in Croatia 1-1
Did anyone see the guy in the crowd holding the Hibs clubshop carrier bag? 🤣
ThanksQuote:

I think Clarke has saved his job by changing it up quite a bit. Our approach to the last few games has been much more like we showed at the start of the last qualifying campaign as opposed to the drab, safety first football we seemed to adopt after qualifying had been secured. We got into a rut at the wrong time and couldn't get out of it.Quote:

Aye OK this is also a team that put together a run of 1 win in 16. And remind me of how this steely, organised, strong team did in the summer when it really mattered?Quote:

Gordon. Souttar. Doak. 3 stand outs this week. Steve Clarke is the business
It was certainly very entertaining - for a change.Quote:

Tonight was as good as I’ve seen from Scotland going forward, against a proper nation, as I’ve seen for a long time.Quote:

On Scotland tiring and the subs ,I’m not sure they improved you much .. certainly far from convinced that Shankland is international class tbh …
I think Clarkes done a good job with Scotland and I certainly wouldn’t be in a rush to lose him ..
Anyhow well done 👍.
think we're unbeaten on Youtube :greengrin
We need a song for you since the festive seasons almost here. You're a mean one Mr Grinch....Quote:
