Clyde1998 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) He's out of contract at the end of the campaign, so I can't see the SFA sacking him - unless it gets really, really bad. If we beat Slovakia, we're still in with a chance of second - which is our realistic target for this group.

It's not over though, nowhere near it. Very poor result, even worse performance but we are still in the mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Rubble Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) Get real - we just failed to beat Lithuania at home, which even Jonothan Northcroft had us down as a stick-on this morning. Strachan can do one now - he's exhausted my patiience and he is not as clever as he thinks he is.

Malcolm Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 I would settle for 7 points from first 3 games. If he doesn't get that I think he needs to consider his position. Can't say I would have picked a much different team aside from not playing Martin up front. Our centre halfs are terrible, griffiths missed a sitter. Not sure a new manager would do much better. If we do get a new guy in I would go for souness or Walter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely zero chance of those two even considering this job for a second. And why do we necessarily have to have a Scottish manager ?

killiefaetheferry Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 He is responsible for playing Martin as our main attacking player. Not a good decision. You put balls in the box - which we did - then Jordan Rhodes is your man. Not impressed by Ritchie. We needed more width, and our most wingery winger is Forrest. Lots of reasons why we failed tonight but Chris Martin is the main one. I would actually have fancied Fletcher tonight, it was his type of game, with the potential to fire in plenty of balls to him from the wings.

PHATBOY_AK47 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Tactically naïve! Burke was he injured? If so don't have a problem with that. If he was ok why did he come off? Strachan as everybody knows has his favs, well they are not working. Time for him tae dae the decent thing and resign in the morning. That's the only way tae try and salvage something from this group. Go get Lars Lagerback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Souness is a failed manager and an idiot to boot and Smith plays the most dirge depressing football known to man. Both cretins and awful managers.

kmcca5 Posted October 8, 2016 Author Share Posted October 8, 2016 This is why I didn't renew my SSC membership and have stopped going to Scotland Matches. Can't get excited about any potential replacements but some fresh blood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
