I would go with
Gordon
Caldwell Weir Naysmith
Fletcher Hartley McCulloch Teale McFadden
Boyd O'Connor
for the Scotland game tomorrow. But whatever McLeish decides, there HAS to be two up front for this game. Fair enough for the France game, you wouldn't expect it, but we have to go out and try to win these kind of games. Roy Aitken has been hinting that it will be an attacking formation, but we will have to wait and see.
Six points would be an absolute dream from these two games, but I think the best we will get is three. What are the bets of us losing tomorrow and beating France? It would just be typical Scotland

I think that 6 would be a fantastic result, more likely but still brilliant 4 points i feel.
Although your right enough RH the three will come from France  _________________ "An oppressive government is to be more feared than a tiger" |

Naysmiths out.
I'd go:
Gordon
Whittaker McManus Weir McEvely
Fletcher Brown McCulloch
Maloney O Connor McFadden
3 up front when going forward and five in midfield when we're on the back foot |

| Well we've got France, Ukraine, Georgia and Italy to go. I think we're going to have to take something from three of those four games to qualify, so we may as well start with France! |

| I'd say a draw against Italy and France would be good results. Play for good wins at Georgia and Ukraine. Hope France can take some points from Italy and Ukraine to help the Scots. |

What an odd little world you live in Parkie. Life is so much better if you aren't carrying around as much hatred.
Great win by Scotland, for the second game I've been really impressed with Scott Brown. The guy's like a terrier, never tired. Even at the last minute he was still running around like he'd just gone on the pitch.
Great player, probably Scottish Player of the Season in my opinion. |
