He has to be given time to turn our fortunes. We're hopeless just now but I think we have the players to perform much better, and certainly against teams like Russia.
The only concern I have is his constant chopping and changing of the starting eleven. He should have somewhat a fair idea of his first picks by now.

He’s not a great manager and he’s not a poor manager.
It’s the fact that Scotland has some absolutely rank footballers at its disposal that is the problem.

30 years plus of diddly how do you do that, no improvement in 30 years and I mean zip zero nothing heehaw XXXX all with no light at the the end of a very very long in fact a never ending tunnel,to say its not looking good is an understatement .,I cant see Scotland qualifying for anything in the next 50 years we are not geared up for it ,its all very asking well asking Iceland Belgium and Afghanistan how they got their acts together what we should be asking is not how it happened but who`s going to fix it , but then that means getting shot of the weegie influence so it aint happening

We should play international football at 100 mile per hour and direct as possible and see what happens

In looking for positives from the latest debacle, I thought Palmer at right back did pretty well. He looked an upgrade from O'Donnell.

I think clark can turn scotlands fortunes around. Looking at the team against san marino I'd say it is full of youngsters with maybe an eye to the future. We still have the likes of cooper Griffiths Teirney could Souttar and Porteous do a job at the back? So yeah give him time I say

I think he needs years to turn this mess around but if we don't see any sign of slight improvement (a shoring up of the defence, some sign of organisation) he has to go.

Sadly, as noted elsewhere, the fundamental reason for the cliff-like decline in Scottish football's standing over the past 20 years cannot be solved by simply changing the poor sod on the touchline.

Its going to take a long time for him to establish a system that works with the players we have and develop the spine of the team, but If anyone can do it he can. We need to get behind him.

It was sort of an impossible task to start with because we are dire but when your first 5 games are Belgium x2 Russia x2 and Cyprus, it was never going to go well. We beat Cyprus, and got horsed by two teams that were in the last 8 of the Wolrd Cup, one of which is ranked 1 in the world.
If we can win our last two games and finish 3rd in the group, plus put in a decent effort in this playoff I will be relatively happy.
Like others have said we have two gaping holes in the team, CH and Striker. Other teams are either very solid defensively and/or have a striker that can get you a win out of nothing, at the moment we have neither.

Armstrong clearing the ball against England would have been enough for us to come second in the group.
The eventual finalists Croatia had a much easier qualifying group than we did and finished with only two points more.
