Scotland V Italy

[Jockstar]

I know that there is not heaps of Scots on here. But there is a few.

Well it could mean the difference of us getting a play off place. 2 games in the space of a week. Predictions for tonights match.

I'm sticking my neck out here. But ma heart tells me we are gonni do it. I reckon only 1 goal in it.either

1-0 or 2-1 but i'd settle for a draw and a win against Norway midweek. If that happens we are right back in it. Unfortunately i cant watch it due to my global postion. But i'll be listening via the web.

So what do you think? Result that is. I hope we can do it!. We need 4 points out of the next 2 games. Come on!

1-1 was not a bad result. It means that we will have to go to Norway on Wednesday and get 3 points if we are to have any chance of qualifying.

..Scotland played a very good match...I hope you can get three points next time...(I'm on italian side..)

Scottish football is coming back from a long depression. Hearts are top of the league

1-1 is not too bad. Bring on Norway. We need a good result against them.

Shouldn't have Totti gotten a red card? Impressive work from Scotland though. I never expected them to beat Italy.

Bring on Norway. We need a good result against them.

We actually went to Norway and won 2-1. What a change in form since we replaced that useless &lt;deleted&gt; Vogts with Walter Smith.

Imagine if we had had Smith as manager from the start of the campain! We would probably be looking at at least a play-off place.

We could mathematically still qualify but looking at Norway's last 2 fixtures I don't think we will catch them.

The incompetance of the SFA has probably cost us any chance we had of qualifying for the World Cup. Why was Vogys not sacked before the World Cup campain kicked off? He left Smith with an almost impossible task of qualifying.

Scotland will never be the greatest team in the world but at least the players are playing for Scotland with pride again.
