so much so the talk on the radio is, that he will replace 'Victor Valdes' nxt season

hes not that good surely, or has B7 been right all along ?
I think its more likely to be Reina. Forster's distribution isnt good enough and not sure his comfortable enough with the ball at his feet.

Scott Brown didn't break anybody's bones! and the guy was an actor throwing himself all over the pitch. He does it all the time.

There is a law about the using excessive force:

30 seconds in.

I assume this is now the benchmark.

As stonewall a penalty as you are likely to see.

What about his stamp in the previous round against Shakhter Karagandy.

It will certainly improve his chances of getting picked for the Spanish national team.

Morgano gomis resigns for dundee united, usually united policy of a getting back a failure elsewhere and probably 1 or more young players out the door soon.

Hibs seemed to be operating that policy a few years ago as well

Minty associate Gavin Masterton loses his attempt to stop the Dunfermline administrators and now the club can be taken over by Pars United.

Only in Scotland could a man who in August admitted 41 counts of avoiding tax, paying £45m to the South African authorities and fined over £200k (or face 82 years in jail) be deemed the saviour of a football club.

What we expecting tomorrow then, our home record is not great when we try to take games to the opposition.

We could finish anywhere from third to bottom of the group.

Still not into the going places mantra

Probably another impossible group in the euros to come. Look at Iceland though pot 6 and still could make the play offs

Anything other than a win for Scotland should be deemed unacceptable.

Going into the Euro 2016 qualification with a double over Croatia surely has boost confidence in what is in theory an easier format to qualify from.

It should be but top 3 is still going to be difficult for Scotland whatever the group

Don't think we've won a home match in this campaign. It would be a sad record if we keep that up.

I feel so bad now not watching the game.

I know I am among Scotland's biggest critics on here but hopefully we can get a group that we can compete in.

Iceland have proved what can be done with a favourable group.

Still not sure about us winning games when it really matters though

Things seem better though

Up to 35 in the world Tho this does show how flawed the rankings are!! I mean Switzerland one of the 8 seeded teams for the World Cup?

Does this mean we'll be in pot 3 for the euro qualifiers? I remember recently we feared we might be in pot 6!!
