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:

Just a pity Portugal had already won the group as basically fielded a second string team.Quote:

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:

Think that only applies for the Euros, not the World Cup qualification.Quote:
