Nigeria v Jocks

So, amid match-fixing rumours that it would finish 2-2, it DID finish 2-2 - and this was Scotland's second goal...

Nothing to see here, move along.

 

I knew the score to this game on Monday night

 

The first one was a nice goal.

 

Did McGregor do similar at the other end? Talk about a hot potato!

 

McGregor had a good game and when Boyd came on he did brighten up the attack.

 

Our lads did well and it shows how highly rated McGregor is that he just walked straight back into the side. Boydy looked good as well. Iketchi Anya looked well good for the Jocks, but he never looked decent for Watford. He also doesn't sound very Scottish.

 

Since when did that matter to the Scottish national team?

 

Not since they called up Chris Iwelumo apparently. Aside from that young Chelsea lad Islam Feruz, have there ever been Scottish Internationals that have had roots outside the UK? Obviously there will have been some from Irish heritage, but it just struck me as funny that Scotland were playing Nigeria and the bloke with a pretty Nigerian sounding name was turning out for Scotland.

 

He looked decent the year we came up, playing a similar RWB role to Elmo.

 

more importantly, was there anything in the game that may have been "questionable" in terms of adding credence to the match-fixing polemic?

 

Scotland didn't lose?

 

It struck me as funny that, I wondered if the Jocks were a man short and the Nigerians lend them one for the game.

 

What, like the Nigerian keeper throwing the ball into his net?

 

it wasn't the second goal, it didn't count

 

Really? Ah, that's disappointing.

Not to mention a poor decision.
