Coollestersmoothe Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Think I’ve fallen outta love again with the national team. I can’t bear Steve Clarke gaslighting us anymore. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott-ish Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Poland were a terrible side, absolutely there to be beaten if Clarke wasn't such a coward. He's got to go. Why wait till the 70th minute to make positive changes? Dykes looks every bit the 3rd tier player that he is, Ralston is minging and Hanley is a moose. Why take Gilmour off?? Why keep punting the ball forward, mostly towards McGinn?? Theres a very real chance we come out this group with zero points. On the plus side McTominay is a Rolls Royce of a player and Doak looked lively. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Ralston, for club and country, is an emergency right back. You get away with having him in there against weaker opponents or for a short period of time. He can't be the primary option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richey Edwards Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 One thing I've noticed in my time as a supporter (since 1999/2000) is that Ayr United and the national team are never both doing well at the same time. They either both do shite or one does well while the other does shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott-ish Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Broony winning us the league and going on to manage Scotland in a few years would be almost acceptable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1nickydevlin Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 If broony did manage to win the league for the 1st time in 45 years it look better on his CV than a year at 5th placed hibernian. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, there was a real buzz round about the national team which in fairness was created by Stevie Clarke however the lead up to Germany and then in Germany was just turgid. Time for a change imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrExile Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Steve Clarke is o one trick pony. Will only attack when his hand is forced and despite it working well reverts to his defensive style next game. He worked well when we were limping around in 45th ranking position but is unable to evolve with better players. He should be made to sit in the stand for a few games and let someone more attack minded ditch his mates and pick the best team. The penny might drop somewhere and he might finally get asked why he is selling this current bunch of players short 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The penny might drop somewhere and he might finally get asked why he is selling this current bunch of players short A guy struggling to get a game in the 3rd tier of English football should never, ever be near a Scotland squad. He's sticking with players who done well for us 3 years ago through blind loyalty, bloody stubbornness, ineptitude or probably a combination of those things. And not to take away from the achievements but it's never been easier to qualify for the Euros. I was actually stunned to see his starting XI against a desperately weak Poland side at home then I remembered it's Clarke. Hopefully the media start to properly jump on him and put pressure on the SFA to bin him otherwise he's here to stay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC 1910 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 With the entry prices down for Sunday, what kind of crowd are we expecting? New manager might entice a few more Raith fans than what they had planned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is even more boring this year with the removal of "foreign" teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be enjoying a no football weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
