KrolMong Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Not a great game, but that last 5 mins plus stoppage time were entertaining. Scotland were just really poor. They looked like an old fashioned championship side chucking crosses into the box from 30 yards out, which wasn’t what they were doing during the qualifiers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl71 Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 There’s been some right bullshit spouted about that penalty shout. Armstrong initiated the contact by sticking his arm out to impede the defender, who was faster than him, thereby making the defender fall into him, and bring him down. Clever, but there’s something called VAR now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank_Owl2,0 Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 I just don’t think the jocks had enough quality all over the pitch. Dare I say it, the also didn’t have anything in midfield that could do a round the corner pass like BB does/ did. The one time they did something akin to that ie turned the Hungarian defence they got a decent chance. Im ambivalent to Steve Clarke but he needed to make 1+1=3 with squad he had but he got 1.5 at best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clever, but there’s something called VAR now. I didn't think it was a pen. Agree with you re the trying to initiate contact (arm and dangling leg). He also clearly pulled the defender's shirt, just to make sure he went down in a heap. Not that anyone on BBC was interested in admitting that. They're supposed to be unbiased! The ball was there for Armstrong to play but he wasn't interested. No pen. As expected, Scotland-esque last night. When's the next 'glorious failure' train coming along? 🙁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Scotland were a Club team would they be mid Championship level, or would McGinn, Robertson and McTomeney drag them a bit further up. Suppose they may have beaten Sheff United last year.

Skamp Posted June 25 Author Share Posted June 25 (edited) Problem being that they need to get down to 16 teams and we don't really need to be going to 28 starters with 14 going through plus 2 x best 3rds.

I mean in theory you could have 32 teams over 8 groups x 4 (like the World Cup is / was). Did that increase to 48 teams for the next one - I lose track. I mean I understand the wanting to give more countries the opportunity, for the under developed 3rd world countries like Scotland or Wales it's nice they can have a week away. Tbf the football has in general been more open and attacking because you do have a 2nd chance, it's just the finishing 3rd and getting through that could perhaps lead to convulted games in other scenarios 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
