Happy to see Strachan sign on for another two years...at least we have a good manager and continuity...albeit the next Messi needs to be found lol!

Not for long.

To be fair I'd be willing to play in this game myself....probably have a heart attack towards the end of the first half and then insist on reappearing at the start of the second half just to kick Wayne Rooney in the nuts.

 

In short if a Scottish player can't raise his game for this one at Wembley he should just hand in his nationality and go play for Plymouth.

Chip butty and a pint at half time and you'd be raring to go second half smokes

The only respite for Scots is that England are not much better when it comes to achievement, how long now since 1966 ----  50 years is it.

Perhaps look at "runners up"..."qualifying"...."Semi-finals"....etc for YOUR real picture and where Scotland came in any of those categories......Whilst you are at it, what year did Scotland win the World Cup, slipped my memory...?.............:stoner:

I see Strachan is maintaining the Scottish managerial tradition of showing despair...

Ahh, Ally MacLeod. That must have been one of the few occasions that he was at a loss for words.

 

The send-off for the 1978 WC was an absolute classic. From the open-top bus parade at Hampden Park to the crowds at Prestwick Airport. His wiki page has this gem:

Prestwick Airport was packed with supporters seeing the team off. When a journalist asked him "What do you plan to do after the World Cup?" MacLeod replied: "Retain it."

 

Of course it all came crashing down, but it was a wild ride at the time. Initially made all the sweeter by the failure of England to qualify for Argentina.
