Scary Bear Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 2 hours ago, MarkoP said: We’re due a freak turn in fortunes Will this be the day? Been utterly depressing the last 10 months We only require 11 guys to give their best performances in almost a year You only get 20/1 odds for a 0-1 Scotland win tonight. That is stingy as f**k by Bet365. I’m almost moved to message them and say so. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m almost moved to message them and say so. There's an outside chance that we somehow get a win, but odds on us keeping a clean sheet ought to be astronomical. I guess if Ronaldo insists that he takes all the shots again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galajambo Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Portugal are a top top side, it should have been them in the semi of the Euro's against Spain, and I fear we'll take a bit of a pumping tonight! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirkieRR Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 I wish teams wouldn't show us respect. I'd rather Portugal thought, 'Och, it's just Scotland, they're diddies. We'll play our third choice team, rest our top players, but let CR come on in injury time to boost his cap total.' Of course, their third choice team would rinse us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry Jim McLean Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 I think Clake will go to a back three again tonight with Porteous coming in. Potentially McLean to sit out. Dont see him putting any new faces in from the start away to this Portugal team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkoP Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 (edited) The mentality on here sums up why we’re not a forward thinking independent of ten years country. I share your reservations about tonight but with the correct strategy and a bit of luck a positive result is possible Edited September 8 by MarkoP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucksburnDandy Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 This is how I'd start tonight. Ideally I'd like to fire Hanley into the sun but I don't trust Porteous not to be a f**king idiot. I considered strongly starting Doak out wide right, bringing Christie back and dropping McGinn but I'm not sure throwing Doak in front of Max Johnston from the start against Portugal is the wisest idea. At least Christie would track back and offer some defensive protection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to have landed in two International roles with a high standard of player but has failed based on expectations. Twisting again, would Steve Clarke have done better with the resources available? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So long as you're giving your proposed line-up lots of careful thought, it lets us all rest easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
