Nellie The Don Posted August 8, 2013 Report Posted August 8, 2013 Are they doing extra time/penalties if it ends in a draw, or just ending in a tie? Quote
Andrew Posted August 11, 2013 Report Posted August 11, 2013 Less than 24 hours till I leave. Really looking forward to this. Hopefully can come back up the road with a win as well. Quote

bloo_toon_red Posted August 12, 2013 Report Posted August 12, 2013 I am driving to Edinburgh and then getting an overnight train. Was thinking of parking car in either west end (Gorgie/Slateford) or southside (Cameron Toll/Bruntsfield). What's the closest I can get to city centre for free parking which is also near a main bus route? Quote

Harison Gardens (end of S4) is safe and the one I would suggest. Would offer you a space out the back of my flat but would need to see you tomorrow morning to hand over the permit. Quote

Had been thinking Wheatfield but the place you suggest is a bit more off beaten track. Quote

Kowalski Posted August 13, 2013 Report Posted August 13, 2013 Not exactly a great night for the U21s Quote
Reekie_Red Posted August 13, 2013 Report Posted August 13, 2013 Did I imagine this, or did Scotland beat England in the final game at the old Wembley Stadium? I'm sure I remember Billy Dodds scoring. But it appears to have been completely wiped from the record-books (okay, I can't find it on Google!) Quote

Scotland beat England in the last game to be played at the old Wembley so they held another last game at Wembley and the Germans beat them too. I'm certain it was 1-0 Germany. No idea of the Scotland result nor the occasion nor the scorers. Weirdly fallen into reality oblivion for me like it obviously has into cyber oblivion if google can't find the bastard. Quote

We did beat them in last competitive game at Wembley with Don Hutchinson scoring for Scotland. As RS says England could not stand thought of losing last game at Wembley so played Germany and lost again. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 London is full of men in kilts apparently. How appalling. The "famous" tartan army. They would embarrass me but for the fact jingoism left my body many moons ago. Quote
Tyrant Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 ANyong genuinely confident about getting a result? As overrated as England are we need to remember that this is one of the poorest Scotland Football Club teams of recent memory. :-( Quote
Kowalski Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 I can see us being more up for it than them, so who knows what might happen. If the guffs get an early goal then it will all be over. Quote

I thought he was alright for the first part of the match. Thought his experience leading the line was useful. Never thought I'd say that, going to need to have a drink now Either way, been impressed with the performance so far. Not sure what Whittaker was playing at for the goal and took me a while to figure out Forrest was on the pitch but apart from that its been great. Hanley and Martin look solid again, got a good feeling about those two if they can build a proper central defensive partnership long term. Quote

Edinburghdon Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 I'm really really impressed with the attitude from Scotland tonight, knocked the ball about well too. Like what Strachan is doing with this team. Walcott can get to fuck though Quote
rocket_scientist Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 Any online streams for this, guys? Quote
Edinburghdon Posted August 14, 2013 Report Posted August 14, 2013 Can see this being a performance that deserves a much better result that it gets. Can't help with the stream though rocket sorry, ITV player maybe? Quote
