I've generally been behind Clarke and championed him to stay despite the poor euros

Yesterday was probably the first point where I've thought "does a change benefit everyone?"

We're too talented in the middle of the park to let this group just fade out of love playing for Scotland.

Result aside, the selection and then performance were baffling. Mckenna, doig, hendry and Bowie/Wilson should all have started on come on for at least 30 mins

We know what Robbo, McTominay etc give. Last night was a lose/lose situation when the teams were announced and weve come out with worst case scenario. Stubbornness got Strachan in the end, it might go the same way for Clarke

I was at the game unfortunately and it was a terrible performance.

As you say, baffling selection and stubbornness from Clarke. The midfielders all looked done in and more than ready for a break after a long season. Why not give opportunities to players desperate to claim their place in the team and excited for the opportunity?

There was a period before our subs were eventually made in the 2nd half when Clarke went to the bench and there was no one in the Scotland technical area at all. The whole thing looked completely directionless.

The crowd were actually decent until our 'second' was ruled out for VAR. Then folk started to drift away and the moans and groans became more audible - with good reason too.
