Latrine will probably be given another shot at it
Fletcher giving it "we tried to win the game"
Really ?
No sign of attacking football there. Just deep defending for 90 minutes. Standing off. Schoolboy tackling. Pitiful passing. We never even had a go in a must win game
In that case whats the answer?

Arrys off to QPR once Sparky gets his marchin orders.should be about tea time Sunday.

Mackie got about the 2nd half. Never seen much of the ball because of the negative sit deep defending.
I like him as a Ayer though. Talented player who works hard as well. Wasted in a team thatbdoesntvwant to get forward
Esc,
i like him too, hes an honest pro who always gives 100% for us.
i think some of his fellow team mates,both club and country should take a leaf out of his book.

Esc,
We all agree Levein should go and probably shouldn't have been appointed in the first place.
He is responsible for tactics and team selection but not much he can do about players not being able to string two passes together.
I don't see him walking away so the SFA will have to make the decision for him.
They can't afford to get it wrong again and will have to pay the going rate to get a top man if we can.

There should not have been that gulf. Sure their players play for better club sides in the EPL in general. But most of our players were EPL players playing for good sides like Man U, West Brom and Sunderland. And other EPL sides Wigan, QPR, Southampton
Plus Celtic who ae flying high
So there's no way it should have been so one sided and a complete inabity to pass or press the ball. That's down to the manager
Fakk off Latrine
Ffs the wan star Latrine supporters are oot. Clearly satisfied with his work And being bottom of the group

I think you'll find the one stars are because you constantly post childish articles with personal insults towards a man you don't even know.
You don't like him as a manager, fair enough, but FFS stop acting like a 5 year old with the childish insults.
That said he should probably walk but I agree with the above poster, we just don't have the players.
We shouldn't be last, but we are never qualifying with this lot, regardless of who inevitably takes over.
His record is abysmal at all levels. Achieved nothing
Players in that team that underperform were continually picked - substandard performance after sub standard performance. How the fekk can that be allowed? How can a team improve if your position is safe irrespective of performance or results ? What other teams would have such a philosophy of rewarding failure ?
How come small nations like Croatia and Belgium can produce the goods and we can't? We should do what France did in the early 90s. Forget this AND the next tournament and put a plan in place for the future incorporating Henry McLeish's proposals. Otherwise we'll be sitting in 20 years going through the exact same anguish.
We should at least throw in a couple of the u21's in the part few games to give them vital experience in international football
And who knows, some of them might really prosper or poor in a shift worthy of the badge

the likes of tony watt, lewis mcleod, dylan mcgeouch should be blooded into the first team for the remainder of the campaign. also forrest should be there starting games as well.
these guys are our future but should be given a taste of the big time whne there is little pressure on their shoulders as we are already oot

Not sure about that. Vogts did something similar and we just got battered and fell further down the rankings.
These guys are prospects but they are nowhere near ready to face Belgium, Croatia etc. Them getting battered by far superior sides will not do their development any good.
I think we need to look a generation further down the line. Until we start training kids correctly from 8/9 years old they will not be good enough even in their late teens/early twenties, by that time it's too late.
We need to stop standing back in awe at Belgium, Spain, France etc and say what did they do to get this good and bloody well do it ourselves.
Anyway rant over, this supporting Scotland depresses and enrages at the same time
