Its not really in our own hands - we need Ireland to lose their last 2 games if we don't win tonight. We also need to beat Poland and Gibraltar.
If Poland do win those games, it means Ireland have lost one of theirs, putting them on no more than 18 points. If Ireland beat Poland, Ireland have 21 points and finish second; Poland would have 17 points and we finish 3rd. |

Well what an utterly spineless display thus far and Germany score the softest of openers against a packed defence.
This could be a hammering but we will probably try and defend for the next 70 minutes ... |

Thought they did ok but it's the Georgia result that will ensure we don't make the play offs.
Something I have wondered for a while does Strachan ever actually watch the English based players in games. I am not convinced he does |

Just seen the view on Twitter of what some wheelchair users got at hampden, with the height of the advertising led boards they barely saw a thing.
Utter disgrace. |

I am not convinced he does One thing noticeable was when the double substitution was made usually you would get an injection of energy from the crowd, yet when Martin and Ritchie went on there was nothing. |

Utter disgrace. But it's no excuse. Either the disabled section should have been moved higher, or the SFA refusing to accommodate the boards. |

So if Ireland lose at home to Germany and away to Poland, Scotland will only need a draw against the Poles with the guarantee of 3 points against Gibralter.

Poland is massive. Only worry is they play weakened teams having already qualified. Hopefully they'll fight for top spot |

Yup, or if we get 6 points they must get at least two draws(can't see that happening).

We're still in with a chance as ROI have a couple of tough games.
Obviously we need to get something from Poland which won't be easy. |

Time for a change of manager.
Not playing in form Gordon and Griffiths is almost as bad as the no striker formation. |

I wonder if that's due to the pitch being raised for the commonwealth games? I'm sure the running track is underneath?
The problem, as I said, was RTL using their own cameras in the North Stand. This led to additional electronic advertising in front of the South Stand, which obstructed the view. |
