I would assume that he was holding out for a better deal than we’re offering but it hasn’t materialised yet, so it’s maybe him keeping his options open. If he does well enough for us to get one in January, then fair enough.

Adams is who I was meaning, but I’d also argue that Dykes would get a game. Israel seem to be a side who are set up to score lots, but in doing so they also concede lots while we’re the exact opposite which may go some way to explaining it. This is shown by them scoring 14 while conceding 11, we’ve scored 9 while only conceding 5. Same story in the nations league, they scored and conceded 7, we scored 5 and conceded 4. Like I say, I don’t think he’s a bad player and obviously his goal scoring record internationally is excellent, but he’s absolutely not ‘light years’ ahead of any of our options.

Not taking anything away from him, but the vast majority of his career has been spent in Israel or China, so possibly (definitely) not the highest standard. And I’m pretty certain that we have strikers who could get a game for PSV. He’s a good player, and obviously a good goal scorer but light years ahead? I don’t think so.

Meet the Team 4 stars is a leading player for the BGL Ligue, 3 stars is good player for same Pretty poor. Bernard is a good enough player, but there's absolutely no depth whatsoever. Will need to try and get something in there as an improvement for this. That's better, although I could do with a left winger since Bernard will be playing up front But basically pretty good. Fairly weak, but not dreadful. Improvement required but not massively urgent, I don't think. Attention needed right across the back line. Lima is fine at right back, and I can put out an acceptable defence I suppose, but it's clearly the weakest area of my team, and probably the main reason why we're doing so poorly. And Weiss is quite good, so I'm pleased with that.

Estonia were also playing a guy who's been without a club since July, and that Henri Anier diddy that used to "play" for Motherwell.

Wonderful goal. Get it up you Sam.

I've managed to get a club job at long last, and I'm off to Luxembourg. FC Swift Hesperange have been a yo-yo club between the top flight and second tier for a number of years, and are currently sitting just above the relegation spots in the top flight. They've got one Luxembourgish cup to their name, and a host of lower league titles. I got offered another job in Luxembourg as well, but they seemed a bit diddier. That's how the table looks just now. Season is 30 games long, so I've eight to go.

What the f**k happened there?

And we got our world cup qualification draw, which should be pretty straightforward. I would expect that only Russia are any good, but even my Latvia side got a draw with them so.

Amazing how just 11 minutes of Sam Matterface can make you think that Ian Crocker and Andy Walker are alright actually.

Nah, you’re alright mate.

November 2064 We thrashed Portugal, but we were incredibly wasteful with our chances. Like, Scotland v Moldova levels of wasteful. Managed to grab an equaliser though, so I remain unbeaten as Germany manager. Denmark are still just worse than us, so we were pretty comfortable. Not as good as we were against Portugal, but we didn't need to be. So our group ends up like this, and as already confirmed we go through to the semi. We also had the best record of anyone in any group in league A, so that's nice.

Only fools is Mrs Browns Boys levels of shite. You’re free to enjoy whatever you like though, no judgements from me.

This is a country where only fools and horses is regarded as some sort of national treasure so frankly we get what we deserve with this absolute pish. I’m also still not entirely sure why Amanda Holden is famous? Like, what did she do to become famous?

I’m pretty sure that Moldovan club who qualified only have about 2 or 3 Moldovan players - it’s mostly South Americans and Africans.

I think part of that was that SOD hasn’t really played much in the last month or so, and he was absolutely fucked by that point. I honestly think if he was fully match fit he takes another touch and it’s a goal. Final ball isn’t good enough, but he gets into space brilliantly. If he can get one cross right, we’re absolutely laughing. I would also say that the vast majority of Alaba’s crosses were from deep positions where the central defenders should be much more comfortable dealing with them. Think there was only one occasion when Alaba got to the byline to cross. Given that Austria’s entire game plan was ‘give it to David, maybe he’ll do something’, we have to call that a great effort from SOD.

Aye I mind watching it on sky, I think, and the linesman I think realised he’d made an arse of it after Doran ran off with the ball and was desperately hoping it’d come to nothing and could just move on. As I recall, Caley had another goal disallowed that day for a ‘foul’ on the keeper that definitely wasn’t a foul and then the keeper absolutely handed us the win right at the end. That might have been a different game though.

To be fair, Spain drew with Greece at home, France have dropped points against Ukraine twice and Bosnia, and Italy drew with Bulgaria. that said, none of those sides are nearly as bad as Moldova or the Faroes are. And I’m not bothering with results between two shite sides that had no fucking chance of qualifying anyway.

The under 21s managed a draw with Luxembourg, so infinitely better than their senior team I’d have thought…

I thought he was dreadful last night. Like, he actively made Austria worse. And, as you say, could have gotten himself sent off for absolutely no reason. Very glad that 9 foot tall boy they had at hampden was injured.

Glorious.

It’s wonderful seeing them go from being fucking shite, but successful to just fucking shite.

It’ll be hard to ignore them after our World Cup victory

See when he’s not just trying to wind up Celtic fans, Kris Boyd is actually a very good pundit.

I see that Dykes now has as many international goals in fewer games than Leigh ‘our best natural finisher’ Griffiths does.
