    It just isn't working. Fresh thinking required.

    The only reason he's playing 3 at the back is to accommodate Tierney. Typical Old Firm ****e bias. By accommodating Tierney and playing a back 3, he is playing both him AND Robertson out of position. This is why Robertson performances have dropped. He's an old school left back with a winger in front of him who he can play off & overlap. He is not a wing back with no one in front or behind him to help him out.

    Agree 100%

    Add to that that when it wasn’t working nothing was done.

    Our poor group at least gives us a chance. Beat Israel by a decent score at home and we could still finish top

    Softer than soft.
    One of the biggest curses in pro football is feigning (& then some) injury to get a man sent off. Their guy fell down rolling in agony holding his throat like there had been a clumsy effort at decapitating him. Souttar barely flicked the boy's neck with a natural movement of his right arm. The boy was then quietly peeking, looking up as he lay writhing on the ground till satisfied the ref was coming over with a card.
    It's the absolute pits & something needs done about it. ***n FIFA.

    International football is different from club football.

    On Scotland..... I see the SFA have allowed Tierney a day off tomorrow as he has a busy schedule with Celtic in the coming weeks. Unreal.

    Scotland not a happy camp. Mcliesh and Andy Robertson interviews on radio after utd game in a word WEIRD. Robbo accusing media of wanting Scotland to get beat?? Mcliesh getting names of players wrong. Players out of position, arrogant tactics, Grifiths! Something very no right here, tomorrows game probably no the best tonic v Portugal, a hiding and, its going to get worse.

    McLeish should never have been given the job, unfortunately not sure who is best bet instead, although definitely a Scottish manager from a generation or two before McLeish

    The man for the job is Levein now he's learned. But he wouldn't take it and the Glasgow pressure wouldn't allow it.

    Until we take proper control of the SFA we're going to get second best.
