    The Ref was useless.

    Scotland and Hungary are 2 teams that don’t know how to control a game or be the team in possession, they were always going to cancel each other out with negative tactics. Clarke needed to come up with something different and take it to them, instead he stuck to his 8-1-1 formation hoping to bore Hungary into making a mistake

    If yous take one of the chances in injury time it's a different story. Yous can't come out and play free flowing football or yous get pumped.

    It's a fact, they played defensively to get there, it's boring as **** to watch but it's the style that got them there.

    Ireland used to qualify then get beat, maybe sneak through a round then pumped. It's where you are now. Moyes saying the Germans will be sad the Scotland fans are going home and wtf is this bird on about?

    Thats the problem, it wasn’t until injury time that they started creating some chances.

    Doesn’t need to be free flowing football, but at least give it a go. They were going out if they didn’t win anyway, what difference does it make if you get pumped, just give yourself a chance to win the game

    Oneill teams were always dangerous with the long balls tho, scotland have zero threat

    the problem for years has been an uneven distribution of quality, all the decent players are centre mids and left backs, thats why he plays 2 left backs and 6 centre mids every game and why they cant create anything

    Doak is going to be our best player over the next few years and he doesnt fit in a Clarke team

    Not necessarily. Look at countries like Georgia and Albania. They just went for it. The shackles are off when you get there. Just go for it.

    Yous had a couple of chances to win it and ****ebaggery took over. Its how Clarke plays, its how he played in the league against the OF he isn't changing. Who would you want as manager? He hasn't shown his face yet, wonder if he'll walk. Hooe not because I could see DD going for him if Rodgers goes.

    play 4-3-3 like a 21st century team, play your best wingers regardless of how pish they are, even pish wingers create the odd chance

    Herve Renard, worked wonders with small international teams in the past.

    Won AFCON with Zambia, took Morocco to the world cup for the first time in 20 years, beat Argentina at the last world cup with Saudi Arabia. Time to start thinking outside the box
