3 center forwards is not helpful, shit shape.

Lost momentum we had. BGD was actually effective at the point he was taken off. 

That was utter shite again tonight.

Agreed.

It’s kills me when you see that lack of imagination. Very limited options on the bench to be fair but a McLean or even sticking tierney at left mid would have helped create. 3 center forwards prob just clog space and I don’t see it helping at all.

Hanley Souter and Adams shouldn’t play on Tuesday, they were all f@cking useless today. 

[Jute2]

That was a rollercoaster and typical Scotland. Complete shite at times and some great stuff at others. Result in Copenhagen means we are still in with a chance going into last game which I suppose if we were offered that at start of campaign we would have snatched it with both hands.

Agreed but don’t think Clarke will agree. Can see him starting all 3.

Clarke will still be picking those three long after they have retired.

Hope to see McKenna instead of souttar but doubt Clarke replaces both unless they are injured.

up top we’re so limited in options that I don’t think it matters who starts, all have their flaws.

i wonder if tierney was intentionally left out today to play in a back 3 Tuesday??

[swaddon]

I'm just looking at the qualification tables there. Sweden are bottom of their group with one point, but could still make the World Cup Finals through the play-offs because of the Nations League.

Modern fitba is a joke.

[RicoS321]

I thought Souttar was suspended for Tuesday? Or was that just something I'd dreamed. Obviously, Clarke would still take the opportunity to play Hanley on his wrong foot.

Anyway, a great result, never in doubt. Nice one Belarus.

[OrlandoDon]

Disappointed in yesterday. We showed enough to prove we are capable, but where has that been in recent games. Feel like Clarke and Scotland are where we were with Mcinnes and Aberdeen. He’s given us respectability again but we are well past our peak and he’s passed his sell by date. Late subbing lacked imagination to say the least. Problem is, the next guy isn’t guaranteed to be successful as we’ve seen with glass Goodwin Robson and jimmy. It’s flat, stale, and old, and for the most part, a pretty poor watch. Change is needed.

belarus delayed the inevitable. Nothing suggests we can play a full game against a decent side these days. Hope to be proven wrong and we are going mental on Tuesday.

Our rugby team had an epic cock up today, that will be the football team on Tuesday too.

Nah, our fitba team will win to balance out the universe.

[Jute2]

Current play off pots as things stand. 

There is still the possibility we could drop to pot 3 if certain results go against us and mean we face an away game in first round. 
 

Just need to win and let Denmark worry about the play offs.

[Slim]

I would say winning at home v Denmark is probably an easier prospect than winning away to any of those Pot 1 teams, except maybe Ukraine.

[InversneckieDob]

So is it a Pot 3 team in the semi and winner of 1 v 4 in the final?

Sweden then Italy anyone?

Aye. Both Sweden and the Italians are shite just now, so wouldn't be as bad as a couple of the alternatives. 

Not that it matters, as I concocted a little plan to take down the Danes by sneezing into their chips.
