It tells you that kind of shite is still in the players heads despite how they are performing and the results they are producing, now. That historic attitude needs to get to f**k. There is precisely zero evidence that this is remotely in the players' heads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Those Scotland shirts have been spotted on a few recent away trips. Never in a size smaller than a XXXL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humility doesn't bother me, cockiness would. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMMjag Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 I hardly think John McGinn is cacking it at historical precedent. The man won a Scottish Cup with Hibs. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye? what a great way of thinking. As the saying goes, in the fucking sea with that crap. Only a very sad individual would get exceedingly upset at a post match comment made by a player who has been part of a squad that has won the last 11 qualifying matches. Dear oh dear. I would love to see what shite you come up with immediately after playing 83 minutes in very warm conditions at 5-a-side never mind for your country. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking nothing away from our top performance against them at Hampden, Spain were both off-form and played a weaker side than usual against us because they underestimated us. We have the ability to go and get a result, but it's far from likely, if Spain can keep the momentum up. For once tho things are in our favour, spain absolutely must win this game whereas we don’t and I think that will suit us especially as we will almost certainly set up defensively to hit them on the counter bye bye spain 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khomini Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 (edited) Sorry folks, what's the thoughts on this thread? Book flights to Frankfurt and figure it out if/when we qualify and we know fixtures? I'm keen to do so but would rather do it knowing that a ton of us are gonna be in the same starting city. Seen Frankfurt mentioned a few times.. Edited September 9, 2023 by Khomini 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Am Featha Taigh Nan Clach Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Apologies if covered elsewhere, but with regards seeding for the finals, how does it work? I've seen/read contrasting claims. It it just simply all the teams who qualify through the 'usual' qualifying method using purely number of points gained in qualifying, or does winning the group take precedence for a higher seeding? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My group have booked flights to Frankfurt and got accommodation with free cancellation in a few different cities that we will whittle down once the draw is made and we know where we’re playing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen/read contrasting claims. It it just simply all the teams who qualify through the 'usual' qualifying method using purely number of points gained in qualifying, or does winning the group take precedence for a higher seeding? Winning the group takes precedence. So basically there’s an overall ranking table of all 53 nations. 1-10 are the group winners (ranked by points, GD and GS with matches against the 6th placed team ignored in the bigger groups). 11-20 are the second placed teams and so on and so on At the moment we sit proudly in 1st place right at the top of this. We have the same 15 points as France and both +11 GD, but we’ve scored one more than them. Pot 1 will be Germany as hosts plus the teams that finish 1-5 in the overall table. Teams 6-11 in the overall table are pot 2 (i.e., five worst group winners and the best runner up) Pot 3 are teams 12-17 (2nd best to 4th worst runner ups) 18-20 (three worst runner ups) go into pot 4 along with the three playoff winners 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
