Hopefully its an announcement rather than just a press conference. He has to go. There's no point in him staying at this point. We should get an interim coach in until we can make a proper appointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASTA Mick Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 No game plan for either of these two matches. He's not even trying to do a good job. Utter dross and getting worse all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strachan has to walk for sure or get sacked but I would bet a good wad of money that whoever takes over won't be able to fashion the crap we have into a team capable of qualifying. There's no point in bringing reality into the conversation. On the TAMB its traditional that every two years we pretend that the right managerial appointment will get a group of Championship level dross into a major tournament. Twenty years of evidence to the contrary won't change things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotland play zero Aberdeen players Youre an apologist for failure. Northern Ireland have played to their strengths, scoring many of there goals from set plays. Our corners this past week have been completely pathetic. We looked like a Sunday league team just putting the same ball in aimlessly every time. If we practice anything in training it should be how to take advantage of set plays near the opposition goal, and how to defend them properly as well.

Martin and Hanley are bombscares but they are the best available. Our attack is toothless and the quality we have in some areas is not enough to make a huge difference.

Handsome22Devil Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 25 minutes ago, Parklife said: Maybe. It'll definitely be better than this though. What makes you say that? Not that I think Strachan should stay, his time is clearly up but at least from summer 2013 to summer 2015 he provided some decent performances and some hope. That alone puts him streets ahead of Levein and Burley. After 20 years of being utter rank with only the briefest of pauses, it's not one coach here or there that's the problem. We'll no doubt roll the dice before or after Wembley but no one in their right mind should trust the SFA to get it right and even if, by some miracle, they do find a good coach then the structure and players will ensure we're not at Russia and quite frankly with a seeding so bad 2020 will be a massive challenge. It reminds of the brilliant gag from the West Wing, two folk are lost at sea on a boat, the pessimist says things can't get any worse, the optimist replies oh yes they can...

Mox Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 16 minutes ago, Parklife said: Aren't good enough? Slovakia just brought on a former Ross County player. We've sent a £15 million bundesligaplayer home for being too inexperienced its complete mismagamdnt. That was hilarious. We need players that have experience? The only experience the vast majority of these players have is in consistently failing at international level. The decision to drop Burke, not play Griffiths and go with 3 central midfielders just shows Strachans complete inability to try and send out a team to win a game from the off. It's all about hope rather than expectation, there's no plan to try and win a game, it's about putting 11 players out and hoping they come up with something. I will personally contribute my savings and remortgage my maws house to make any contribution towards Bielsa's salary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
