No Shinnie or Christie???

 

Wtf Strachan.

 

I agree we should keep the same team who should've beaten England but bringing in Whittaker and excluding them?

 

Nuts

Some goals. I was at hampden when we drew 1-1 with Norway to qualify for Italia 90, must have been some game to be at tonight!

 .... it was some game even tae be sittin' 4 feet awa fae a laptop screen  

Fuck all work got done during those two hours. Was almost greetin at my desk. Wild, still can’t believe we’ve actually qualified for a World Cup. What a year 2025 has been. Proper roller coaster of a year. Three of the best goals we’ll see in a modern Scotland jersey. I mind questioning why no one else had lobbed schmeichel as he was miles off his line. Then king Kenny does his thing.

Looking forward to a drop of the good stuff tonight 😎 🥃  it’s been a long day 😂

That was something else. Second best game of 2025. Phenomenal. 

And what makes it even better is that that arrogant prick Schmeichel was on thew receiving end of both of them 😉

On a separate matter, Dylan Lobban made his first start for the U21's in last night's 1-0 victory away to Bulgaria

Well done loon 👍

 

Only 7 months till we lose our first world cup game to Haiti.

So we're in England's group?

No, we will be drawn with Argentina, Morocco and Italy (if they get through).

England will play Jossy's Giants, The Hurricanes and Melchester Rovers.

Aberdeen winning the Scottish Cup and Scotland qualifying for the World Cup within six months of each other, that's the dream.

And yet, within those six months, both Jimmy Thelin and Steve Clarke have had more criticism than praise, and not unfairly so considering there's been more poor performances than good ones from both teams.

Despite that, they've still both delivered the ultimate high.

 

Kasper Schmeichel also deserves a lot of credit for being part of both days. 🇩🇰

It's no coincidence that the three wonder strikes were aimed to the right hand side of his goal.

Praying for Mexico, and in particular Mexico City for personal reasons. Those folk know how to party.

If as previously reported Harvey Barnes knocked back the chance then he can go fuck himself.

Turning twenty eight next month he knows his England chances have gone I suspect

Pure co-incidence that this is back in the news now 🤔

As enjoyable and memorable as Tuesday was, I don't like all this talk of Clarke being knighted or calls for a public holiday for our first match in the World Cup.

We have only qualified, it's not as if we've won it (yet). The hard work has only just started.

Knighting is for cunts. Public holiday should be mandated for all our games.

Doubt Clarke would even consider it unless there was an injury crisis 2bh. He likes to look at players over a few camps before capping them classicly and, loyalty to the players that got us here aside, there are literally no fixtures in the calender for the national team right now.   I suspect we will play some friendlys in March when the play offs are on but after that the next time the team gets together it will likely be for pre world cup warm up matches (and isn't that nice to type). Sorry Harv, too little too late.

The only thing that puts me off about Mexico is how bloody hot it would be. 

Mexico City not hot at all - rarely gets above 24C ( I appreciate that's hot by Aberdonian standards!). In Mexico depends whether you're at altitude or not. Guadalajara probably a bit hotter and Monterrey hotter still! Bits of Canada and The States likely much hotter than Mexico City.

And even hotter by Inverness standards.  That's good to know though 👍

I stand corrected.  

Yeah me too, thought it would be far toastier.  

5 of the stadiums are 'indoor' 

LA, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, and Vancouver

Only been to the states in the summer once and New York is not fun in July unless you are cold blooded and have asbestos skin

 

This will be our 13th major tournament, maybe it will be 13th time lucky for getting out of the group.
