That was miles from being good enough. Utterly rancid.

Still, 3pts on Tuesday and we're back on track...


Fucking hell, optimistic much? Slovakia are a much better side than Lithuania, we'll be lucky to avoid a horsing if we play like that again.

Still second in the table

"It's all over for us"

Christ...

Only problem with booting Strachan out the door is who takes his place? Or rather who wants the Scotland job?

Some of the pundits on Sportsound this afternoon were talking about beating England. They were talking about having 9 points from 3 games. They were talking about aiming to win the group rather than looking to finish second. When are we going to realise that were not very good? Only bright spark for me was Robertson.

Calm down you fud. It's a bad result which highlighted some major issues with the management.

Lol. All this does is prolong the inevitable. It's over already. 

"This time" :lol:

In terms of the "could be worse" line... Clearly things aren't all over, there are still 8 games left.

However - dropping 2pts at home to the 5th seeds, when only the top team qualifies and second (might) enter a playoff, is not good.

It's the old familiar situation - we now need to find 2pts somewhere else which we otherwise wouldn't. We've already made things hard for ourselves.

Settle. We're 2 games in.

Shite result, aye. Qualification over, no.

Based on that, we won't win on Tuesday. You need 20 points for 2nd, usually.

We'll get 6 from Malta. Meaning we need 14 from the other sides. Thats us only able to get 3 from Lithuania at best. Leaving us needing 11 points from the six games against England, Slovenia and Slovakia. 

Forget about the games against England, as they'll beat us, and we need to get 11 points from the four ties against Slovenia and Slovakia based on the assumption we beat Lithuania away. 

We have to win every game apart from the ties against England. Can you see us doing that?

I'm still curious about which competitive results we've had that would have been worse than losing at home to the fifth seeds.

Assuming we've still got a shot, what do we think about the Slovenia result? Good, because the Slovaks are beatable, or bad because Slovenia are better than expected?

Yes major issues with the management being precisely that our manager should have gone at end of last campaign. Fletcher sat on bench whilst in actual goal scoring form n mobile while Martin lumbered around doing nothing as he has for his last 50 odd games.....never mind hooking Burke for forrest....
