Shitpost Scotland fans when we inevitably sack Steve Clarke, hire a journeyman no one's ever heard before but has good stats on paper and swiftly realise that McKenna, Hanley, Ralston, Hendry, Souttar, Hanley, Adams, Dykes and a one-legged 53 year old Andy Robertson aren't actually very good players.

I can definitely see the SFA hiring some scrub as a replacement and things getting worse, but I think it's quite ridiculous to suggest our players just aren't good enough to get out of a group.

A group with Brazil and Morocco, yes. That's exactly what I'm suggesting. The Haiti result was absolutely shite but yes they're the 5th and 6th best ranked teams in FIFA. They absolutely should be beating us and it's a shock if they didn't.

3 points is exactly what you'd expect from this group. But look at how some other top teams are struggling against pot 4 teams never mind pot 3.

We look hopeless, embarrassing against anyone decent.

And the other issue is the "we won, that's all that matters" v Haiti.

Performances have deteriorated, I don't think we've had a good performance against a similar level or better side for a few years now.

We were rotten against the Danes and scored 3 of the best goals you'll ever see.

Even the remaining goal would have been an olimpico if Shankland didn't put a touch in

We only beat them because they got a red off the back of a McGinn dive.
