Wanna beat England yes but unlikely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotland Ever More Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I will be on the night but really can't get excited about it right now even though it's only next week. Usually I'd be buzzing for a qualifier a few weeks in advance but my enthusiasm has been drained by the shite served up in October, as well as a few other things.

I'm exactly the same. I'll be up for the Slovenia game next Sunday morning mind you but going to the Canada game more out of habit than anything else.

We still have a slim chance, I'd like to see us get out and back the team for 90 minutes and forget about grudges against the SFA and Strachan. We won't qualify but the longer we can stay in it mathematically at least, the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporting the team no matter what the SFA and the team do is part of the reason we are where are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree he should have been replaced before this campaign started but I don't want us to lose games to speed up the process. That makes no sense. If he's still in a job because we're winning games, then great. I know this isn't a popular view on here (a Scotland fans forum) but some of us still enjoy supporting the team, I don't think we should be blamed for being "where we are".

Shed_Tartan_Army_Yeah Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 3 regulars to home games are a 'no' for this one. Watching in the pub instead, and the football isn't even the main reason we are meeting up. Recent performances, costs and constant let-downs are taking their toll...

The fans don't and shouldn't shoulder the full blame here but the happy clappers in the support are part of the reason because they never show their displeasure at bad results, they simply plod along singing "we'll support you evermore". I realise why this is looked at as a good thing but sometimes you need to make people aware you are unhappy and what you are paying for is unacceptable. My way of doing this is not to spend money on the next few home matches. It seems many others think the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, others see it different and still enjoy going to watch their team, doesn't make them all happy clappers or mean that they sing that shite.

But, hypothetically, if we are winning every game then we don't need a new manager. Surely the reason for replacing the current one is that he isn't winning games?

We know he's not getting the best of the players and hasn't done for a long time now. I just don't see that changing. Therefore i can understand the logic that if we get pumped, we'll likely get a new manager who'll have a few free games to try things out.

RenfrewBlue Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Absolutely no interest in these games and probably won't even watch on the TV. Too much money wasted going to see the same old rubbish. Anyone who thinks we've a chance to qualify is deluded. We are out. As should Strachan be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mox Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I couldn't care less what the result in all honesty and won't be going out my way to watch it on TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Best of luck against Slovenia lads. I think the mood on here will completely transform if Scotland manage to beat them. At least the forum on here would be buzzing for the next few months going into the England game. As England is going to be a scrap I can only see a draw at best so Slovenia is definitely the easier of the two. I know it's not 20 but we had ten years in the wilderness when our egg chasers were the darlings of the country and that was hard to stomach especially with their wankstain bandwagoners but I just can't understand how some on here will not only not support the team but refuse to watch it. I don't get involved in the politics and issues with our FA, I just want to go to the matches home and away no matter who the manager is and how the team is doing.

Doric Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) Will be up for this next Sunday. If ever a win or bust game this is it. Effectively a cup final game.Win and it makes the England game meaningfull, lose and its all over and the end of WGS reign as manager. . Rest of campaign will effectively be friendlys.

TDYER63 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Why on earth would any supposed Scotland fan not be interested in this game or not even want to watch in on TV ? Incredible. I am as depressed as the next person but supporting a team suggests 'having an interest' as being a minimal requirement. You do not need to be a 'happy clapper' to support your team despite how bad the situation is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
