pozbaird Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Don’t see us getting scudded, if anything, this being Germany, more likely to be 1-1 but they win with a 90 min deflected shot that was going wide until it hit someone’s arse and rolled in. Get out of jail for the tournament hosts, brave Scots, late heartache for battling Scotland… that sort of thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirkieRR Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Until about last Autumn I was counting on us being on a roll, Germany being in the doldrums a bit, combined with their traditional slow start to tournaments, making for a GAUN SCOTLAND!!! attitude towards the opening game. Now I have The Fear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plymouth Par Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 A touch of the 78 world cup for me. Heading in with so much optimism but then disaster. Of course our expectations are less now but beginning to worry it may become something we want to forget very quickly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vince sinclair Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Free it for me, anything would be a bonus. Main thing would be for Germany to go on and win their other 2 games and hope our other 2 goes our way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudia Gentile Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Germany smashing Ukraine ***checks notes*** 0-0 doesn't give me too much fear. Obviously opening night will be a different occasion but the team and manager could surprise a few folk, in a good way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkieRR Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 I keep having visions of Germany's 7-1 hammering of Brazil at the WC. I enjoyed it at the time, especially as they were weaing Rob Roy jerseys, but supposing the new generation decide to start off with a similar performance? And in Scottish fitba race memory become The New Peru? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure you could pull 11 punters out the crowd who'd defend more sensibly than Brazil did that night 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
