accies1874 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 It’s actually an interesting group and apart from Heorgia, it’s at least teams we haven’t faced (or not in a while in the case of Spain). Seeing Haaland in the flesh will be good though, just a shame he’ll be ripping Hendry & McKenna a new one at the time.You can enjoy seeing players like Haaland when they're playing for the top seed but I'm sure it'll be much less fun when it's in a proper crunch match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After our last 3 great results, everyone here has become miserable gits because we have to beat the mighty Norway and Georgia to get to the Euros. We avoided Ukraine and Turkey. We can absolutely get second. We easily have better squads than those two teams. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Serbia, Israel and Bosnia all getting not impossible looking draws. Must be a chance of a couple of them qualifying automatically and gifting us a home draw if we need to playoff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crunch and Haaland sounds a good option tbf. Ally Love for the next Squad please 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donathan Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Norway are a gang apart from Haaland and Odegaard. Win the midfield battle and we can limit his impact. I think it’s 50/50 for second place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kebab Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Is it my imagination or did the three Pot A sides that we all wanted (Poland, Hungary and Denmark) all get possibly the three easiest groups??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as we've seen with Wales over the past few years having one genuine superstar can elevate a weaker team to great heights. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we are 2nd seeds we use the excuse it’s a really tough draw. We can certainly get 2nd in this group. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've still never even got a point or scored a goal there. Norway, meanwhile, have the best player in the world. It's about as bad as it could have been. We have a chance, but it would be weird if people were leaping for joy considering that there were dozens of easier draws we could have got. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donathan Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 I could accept coming 3rd if we take care of business against Georgia and Cyprus but our defence just can’t handle Haaland, but if we get decent results against Norway and shit the bed in Tbilisi again I’ll have an aneurism. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomo Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Thing is, now I trust us to go and win the games we should win against Georgia etc (unless it’s in June) and even think we are capable of being the ones that can cause an upset. I won’t let the fact I am usually wrong cloud my optimism 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFC. Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Forgot Georgia have that baller that plays with Napoli. We can forget about getting a result over there. 3rd and play off against Serbia again, if we’re lucky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Not ideal, but we should still be qualifying. Need to take care of our games at Hampden. Having Georgia and Cyprus rather than fodder hopefully makes it more likely that Norway will slip-up against them, rather than it simply coming down to head-to-head. Of course, we need to not slip-up. Potentially tricky one for England. Hopefully Turkiye turn up and pump Wales. Croatia should do the business like they usually do. You could argue any of four teams could finish second in Northern Ireland's group. Republic of Ireland have nae chance. Unlucky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
