The fact is we are a very good team now. Defence is sorted for the most part.

 

We have a great striker in Griffiths.

 

Too many bad errors and wrong decision making again though.

 

Snodgrass was poor and Anya.

 

England aren't great but they are lucky as fuck.we have never been lucky EVER.

 

Anyway still hoping we make the world cup

It must be something about living in abroad that gets people emotional about Scotland nowadays. Its not just Aberdonians who don't give a fuck about the national team, most other areas feel the same, blame the SFA and years of ineptitude in running our game for the lack of interest in it.

 

Aye you are right.

 

It seems Scotland is north England these days.

 

Tories Huns and hatred for a lot of Scottish traditions.

 

You'll find plenty of it n these Aberdeen forums.

 

Pretty sad really.

Fuck me, what a roller coaster that  game was. I've never felt for a player more than I did today for Griffiths. Superlatives fail me on his performance, we needed a big game player today and he stepped up admirably. The bounce at the second was the best I have ever experienced in a bar.

gutted we didn't win it but if we keep playing like this we have a good shot at 2nd place.  Strachan deserves credit for today, we were more than a match for England for the majority of the game.

Was it 1985?

 

Seem to remember 2 Hampden games in a row for some reason.

We played at Hampden 84, 1-1 McGhee, then again in 85, 1-0 Gough.

The 85 game was supposed to be at Wembley but it was switched to Hampden as the Government had "security concerns" about it going on at Wenbley. This was the time when crowd trouble was the order of the day (a week or so before Heysel as I recall it) and Thatcher and co didn't want it kicking off in that London.

As I recall the chant at Hampden was "Dennis Thatcher's wife's a hoor".

Southgate saying Engerlund totally dominated the game?.

 

Ffs. What game was he watching?

 

For a start, we were all over them first half and just didn't take any chances.

 

 

Saved their blushes???

 

Fuck off.

 

Are we now Gibraltar. Patronising cunts.

 

 

It wasn't a great game but a superb last 10 minutes.

 

A lot of the old passion that used to be at Scotland games seem to have returned.

 

Was anyone here at the game?

 

Terrible goalkeeping for both and Mulgrew letting Kane go at the end and Gordon not coming out was terrible defending.

 

Think McGregor could have a case for regaining the gloves.

 

Anya was shite and Snodgrass disappointing.

 

However, we have got rid of the dross.

 

We have 2 superb defenders in Tierney and Robertson.

 

Ryan Fraser look good when he came on and step up Leigh Griffiths.

 

I was going mental when that 2 nod went in.

 

Typical heartbreak only to Scotland fans ( and dons after that cup final)

 

Could've been a better fortnight...

 

Murray going out too.

 

 

Ah well.

 

I still think we can qualify for the World Cup.

 

we were so close to bein 2nd.

Should've beaten Engerlund and Lithuania.

 

just a little bit of luck and better team choices and we would've been qualifying already.

 

Least Strachan has learned.could be too late though.

 

:(

:(

 

Need to beat both Slovakia at home and Slovenia away and hope they both lose to England and also beat both Lithuania and Malta so it's a tough ask.  Being Scotland it'll be the Lithuania game that will trip us up.

My country is Europe

My region is Britain

I wish it was Scotland but it's not because Scots are a lot of cowardly bastards.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Actually I wish it was Aberdeen but I won't see that in my lifetime.
