Having said that Steve Clarke did select him after all when he could have had ex Hun Jon McLaughlin or Ross Doohan who has games under his belt for the SSBs this season. So ultimately the manager did select him and because of that has to take the responsibility for last night. I think Clarke has run his course but the natural time for him to have gone was after last season’s Euros when they could have got Moyes in but that ship has now sailed. Now I’m of the mind that he should only be emptied if there is a viable replacement lined up. The problem now is I’ve no idea who that may now be………..

    I thought I heard the commentator saying that the sub keeper had played 9 minutes of football this past season - is that right? How can you get in a national team if you're not even playing for your club?

    Also, something familiar about that Iceland manager - feel like I know him from somewhere…

    According to the BBC he was at Dundee United when Steven Thompson was playing for us, but didn’t get many games.

    Yes, I remember him. He was supposed to be very highly rated but made zero impact for us in the few games he played. I remember watching a reserve game v Hibs that season and he was involved - totally disinterested and just kicked the ball away every time it came to him.

    Just remember him in a derby opener (1-1 or 0-0), was average for us

    Sportsound has the funs game as their main comms game, sounds like a few hundred in attendance like a junior game or something

    Should be a comfy win for the not finished top 4 in over 60 year funsters 😏
