Spikethedee Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 During the lull of international week, I was speaking to someone at my work who is related to Jason Holt of Rangers. He mentioned something about him having played for Scotland U21, but not the full team. Having looked at his wikipedia page, it seems that he has played over 50 games for Rangers, but not had a Scotland call. Andy Halliday has played almost 90 times for them, but no caps either. Are there any players who have more appearances for either Celtic or Rangers who are eligible for the Scotland team, but have never had a full cap? It seemed like it used to be anyone who played more than 10 times for either of them got a Scotland cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senorsoupe Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Yes, lots. Callum McGregor has played 100 times for Celtic and has yet to get his first Scotland cap, and he's better than both Holt and Halliday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bold Rover Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Did Jim Brogan ever play for Scotland? John McDonald? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senorsoupe Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 John Fallon, 192 Celtic appearances, 0 caps Point is that there are a lot of Scottish players who played a lot of games for OF teams over the years without being capped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-MAN Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 All these players are pish though. So I dont understand your point. Why just stop and Celtic and Sevco ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spikethedee Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 There's no real point, was just wondering. All of the non-Old Firm clubs have got loads of players who fans think should have won caps but didn't, so was just wondering whether there were players on that side in the same boat.

TheScarf Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 The only player Scottish player I've ever though deserved a cap whilst at ICT got one. A tremendous 100% record for me in that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't Andy Ritchie the best/worst example? From a Rangers PoV that Bobby Russell was uncapped was a disgrace and that Dave Smith was only capped twice is unforgivable.

10menwent2mow Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Andy Considine recently moved into the top 10 of appearance makers for Aberdeen. Only he and Willie Cooper are in that list and not capped for Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the most technically gifted players we've ever produced and he really should've made at least one squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
