Jambomo Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Rearranging might be possible, I think there would be a will from most associations including (I hope!) the SFA, to help them fulfil the fixture at some point if they can because anything that causes a forfeit is too harsh on them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eez-eh Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 I can’t see many UEFA countries lining up to host Russia. Belarus would bend over for them I’m sure but it would nice if UEFA told them to bolt given how involved they are in the whole thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveMackay56 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Would like to see a show of solidarity at hampden.. whilst we desperately want to win, it’s only a game .. would love to a big slice of blue and yellow in the home support. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the fear that Ukraine are never going to have been so motivated for a game in their lives. And probably every single country in the world apart from Russia and ourselves desperate for them to win ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunfermline Don Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Is anyone else now feeling a bit apathetic and uneasy about this game if it goes ahead.I have been really looking forward to it since the draw was made and wanting Scotland to reach a World Cup for the first time in my children’s lifetime. I do however wonder how the political/military situation will affect players on both sides mentally before any match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a sporting perspective I don’t think it will do our chances of progression any favours that’s for sure.. these guys will be desperate to win 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know how it’ll feel on the night (if it goes ahead) I think it’ll be a very weird atmosphere and I wouldn’t blame the players if it got to them. Conversely I could probably handle getting beat by the Ukraine now better than anyone else. I.e Wales/Austria. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the very same thing last night. There is a crowd funder for a big flag display, and it would be great if it was used for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 It's probably a bit OTT or yer da, but someone on Reddit mentioned getting a fair few Scots to make a fist of the Ukrainian National Anthem when it's played. I quite liked that idea. You'll get people going absolutely heads gone over things and suggesting we just let Ukraine win or something, but doing something like that - or the flag display - is something where we could show support while still keeping it a sporting event. I want us to pump Ukraine the football team, and I hope it's that attitude once it kicks off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 A flag display would be nice, but I'd rather everything for this is focused on the game itself. I hope (I'm sure he will) that Clarke will keep all the boys focused on it and not let them go out and give anything less than their best. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
