They really were great trips with a million memories,and actually remember sitting in the same mixed sections all over Wembley and the banter was brilliant. Stephen Kerr the Conservative and Unionist msp summed it up for me on bbc sotland last wednesday nights debate when he spoke about having 4 children and 3 of them lived in England and had 9 grandkids growing up in England and here we have a shower of nasty bastards willing to man the borders and turn the English homewards to think again. That was a message i noted for myself 40 years ago. Think it was 79 and the trannies had decided to walk into the city centre on the underground rail lines and bringing the whole system to a grinding halt,and you could feel the bitterness and bile creeping in from the bare arsed clowns. 81 was the first Sc vs Eng game I remember. Remember watching Robertson's penalty. TBH, my hero is Cooper, but I modelled myself more on Robertson when playing growing up. scottyscott1963 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our base was Cheshunt, my brother-in-laws 2 uncles stayed in the same street, drank in the Anchor bar Friday, boozer basically didn’t close when we were there, either got lifts into London or took the train to Liverpool street on Saturday morning from the pub, drank in various hostelries and hotels in London then headed to Wembley, then eventually back to norf London and drank all day Sunday, halcyon daze mate. scottyscott1963 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cannot just cherry pick one of a list of reasons i gave why i couldn't give 2 f**ks. Then the abuse Barry Ferguson and Allan McGregor got was over the top and only for one reason. The vast majority of them are Rangers hating bastards and i wish them beat in every match they play. Honestly do not see this hatred of us changing any time soon,especially with father ted in charge.

TBH the post stated set up to play like Killie, which undoubtedly is having a negative affect on Scotland. Clarke set up in many games happy to get a 0-0, which was acceptable at Kilmarnock, hence being a hero with a 50% win ratio. Those tactics with Scotland = lower win ratio and now correct displeasure at set up and results. So in essence, the post is actually accurate, style similar to Kilmarnock and you get inconsistent results even if his time at Kilmarnock was a huge success. scottyscott1963 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 32,413 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 No surprise to see teams like Denmark and Norway doing better than the likes of England and France who are toiling. (I know, not all the same divisions). Prime players are reaching the 70-game mark and it's clearly visible in their play. Even Scotland who are pish have players like Robertson, McGinn and McTomminay underperforming. Too much football is being asked of the players to expect top-level football.
