Whether they're 'well disciplined' or passionate or any other shite. If you fail to beat Malta then you don't deserve to achieve anything. Just for a note, since 2008 - these are the ONLY teams to have failed to beat Malta in a competitive match: Albania (draw) Georgia (draw) Armenia (won 1-0) Bulgaria (draw) Azerbaijan (draw) It cannot be emphasised enough how terrible a result not winning would be. Shall not be emphasised as we going to win simple nae worry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macy37 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Regardless we won't come anywhere close to qualifying. The fact a huge percentage of us and the gaffer are clearly worried about getting a win v Malta is proof of this. This team have hardly won a qualifying match and when they have it's been against minnows and from memory Bulgaria. England won't be fretting like we are about overcoming such a weak side. The difference is however we are also a weak side hence the fretting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borojock Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I hope Gordon and the team have done there research they aren't a team that loses many goals but also a team that doesnt score many either. We need to from the off make sure we take it to them and move the ball quickly getting the players running at them get width from the full backs up the park and looking for the through balls. If we do what we did against Georgia and play with no zest then its going to be harder than it needs to be. Im confident we'll get a win (if we dont we may as well stop playing international football as lets face it these guys should be beaten) 3-0 to us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ill be backing Scotland vocally & financially - I'm just not that optimistic. At best we're average & on a bad day we can be awful. Hope I'm wrong.

Malcolm Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I'm looking for the team to show a bit of character today... If we are struggling to score or go behind I am looking for the players that will stand up and be counted, want the ball, gee up the others. I think this is at least as if not more important than raw talent. We need some characters in the team to take responsibility and not shrinking violets.

weekevie04 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I just want to see us play or dig in if it's not going to plan e.g 0-0 or even go a goal behind. Show some of this 'Scottish' spirit that we are meant to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Bra Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I want 6 points and some encouraging performances, bit of grit and team spirit. At least we would then have somerhing to take into the away games against Slovakia and England. Anything less than 6 points from first 2 games, we're ####ed.

Handsome22Devil Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Think we'll win 1-0 but it won't be pretty. Goal with a deflection or a set piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDYER63 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Oof, there are some seriously depressing people out there. I will go for a bold 1-0 scotland win. Group wise, we will be the only team to get something from England and still fail to qualify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
