Euro 2020

[Gutter Boy]

Probably the last time we qualified for anything. The sides in 96 and 98 were decent and should have been good enough to go through to the second rounds.

I've just looked up those squad and it made me laugh seeing Spurs legends Jukebox Durie and Colin Calderwood in them both!

Mccoist, Macallister and Lambert were decent players

 

[K.D.D.D.D.Soc]

Not sure I remember that. When was the last decent Scotland team? 1985/6 period with Dalglish, Gough, Archibald, Souness and Strachan?

That's about the time the Home International championship stopped.

Scotland had some of the best players..years gone by. Football was a working class game then and kids played under the lampost,s in the streets till late. No mobiles in those days.

Great players, terrible teams.
The Scotland way.

There's a load of pitches 500 yards from my house, you never see kids playing football on them.
There's loads out with cones doing drills on their own, or with dad . Seldom see them actually playing football.
Don’t understand that at all.

Mccoist was the ultimate flat track bully.
His European record for rangers and Scotland record are atrocious.

When I first started watching them there was always debate about picking home players and "anglos"

Stupid argument, with few exception since the late 70s most of the best players went to England.
Gough being the exception.

 

[JerusalemMan]

Szczesny own goal.

 

[Baleforce]

ironically scored by the most Scottish sounding name in the tournament

 

[We are Tottenham]

Good hands behind the back defending there from Poland.How can you counteract the weight of your body to move properly with your fudging hands behind your back?
Anyway I've mentioned it before.. It really is pathetic..IMO...

For our sake I wish he hadn’t been!

He's the gift that keeps on giving.

Both them Yellows were harsh to be honest.

 

[Rorschach]

Both them Yellows were harsh to be honest.

The 2nd one certainly.

 

[JerusalemMan]

That fella looks handy

I'm laughing at the co-commentator saying "that's why he's one of the best in that position" He's a central defender.

 

[scaramanga]

Also, totally crass calling England "the arch enemy"

Never understood this. I don't know a single English person that want Scotland to lose other than when they play England.

I don't want them to lose but it does make me chuckle to see them like today

 

[Yiddo]

The England and Scotland “rivalry” is the same as the Tottenham and West Ham one.
