Away leg 20th March home leg 23rd March. Always fancied visiting Athens.

I didn’t know this was still a thing. Think I watched one episode years ago and decided I would only watch again if they were releasing man eating tigers into the jungle.

Weather being potentially poor probably plays in to St Mirren’s more physical approach than ours. Assuming everyone is back from international duty fully fit we should have enough to get passed them even if it is blowing a gale. In Train then pub near Central to get another train to St James if it’s pissing down. Away end in my allocated seat to piss off Al Train back to capital 2-0 Nisbet and Duk

We are using Zoom all the time even now. Has pretty much replaced 80% of our in person meetings. I used to have to go to London for internal meetings regularly and these have all been replaced by meetings over zoom. Business travel is next to nothing now as a result.

Aye team from league A have second leg at home.

Wales 3-1 up now.

Georgia have it back to 2-1 and Slovakia drawing with Estonia so still a chance of Pot 2 for World Cup draw. For Nations League play off teams in second currently are Turkey, Austria, Ukraine and Greece.

Fantastic for their players although it probably means next campaign will be a load of heavy defeats but for players who have had defeat after defeat they must be buzzing right now.

We had chances to win that more comfortably but almost blew it by taking too long to make the subs. Ralston and McTominay were left on for longer than they should have. 3rd is probably about where we would have expected to finish. On to play off against 2nd placed team from B groups. Draw on Friday. ETA Craig Gordon is still an amazing keeper at 41 but we need to hope someone else comes through soon as he cannot go on forever.

Andy fucking Robertson you beautiful man.

Great save by Gordon.

Gilmour so unlucky with one off bar. McTomminay should have scored.

Great move for the goal and good finish. Defence looks shit however. Both teams to score was the bet tonight.

Oh and how Ralston gets in ahead of Devlin is beyond me.

Doak in is good Hanley and Dykes in not so much.

Still think it was Clarke’s caution that caused our exit in Euros. He is not the sort of manager to go for it from the off. Against Hungary we were clearly sitting in and hoping to sneak one on the break. Hopefully he has learned his lesson and we go for it tomorrow.

We should have beaten Poland at Hampden but individual errors cost us. I am confident we can win this one. Portugal having nothing to play for is probably the bigger issue.

Thought I read last night that staying in Group A means pot 2 and if we were to win and Czechs didn’t win we would sneak into pot 1 but can’t find article now so it may have been drunk hallucinations on train back. Czech drew 0-0 tonight.

Vargas wanting away from Hearts as football in Scotland’s shite apparently. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/ceqxz1p19dwo

Dons win!

Dons through to the final against blue bigots.

Aye we have been wondering about that.

Great idea as means pubs will quieter for those of us who don’t want stand outside drinking overpriced beer out of plastic cups.

This weeks games on you tube again. Coverage wasn’t great last time.
