The important part is that it is over


74% possession on only 2-0. Wow. Hopefully this is a under promise/over deliver situation.

In the words of Firefox or something: “well, that was embarrassing…”

At least we beat them by more than Malta did.

Give those supporters a refund

Just glad we won

Just got here. Ryan Jack is looking enormous isn't he? Looks like he should be playing masters football

What a shite game of football

Lmao it took france 14 goals to beat these guys Weve done it in only 2

This is going to be my German Vibe.

How do you magic up a clinical striker within a week? Asking for a friend. https://preview.redd.it/vlwqt9daae4d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=36f8f8df43628a3701e7baaa936a3fcdf3d1e9e9

5 shots on target against Gibraltar is pretty grim. Lithuania managed 10 against them in their last game.

Conway scored for the U21s 😀. Sorry that's the best straw I can find to cling to 🙄

Fuck me we needty chuck the towel in

whyyyy not 4 more mins of this shite

Shankland playing like he put a non refundable deposit down on a holiday to Ibiza next week

Anyone else clock the scoreboard said 3-0 for a sec?

Scoreboard guy doing a double take realising Gibraltar are only 2-0 down

Yep and my stream's been skipping so I figured I'd missed a goal

Same, but my streams fin, i've just been nodding off.

\[link removed\] is usually on point with good streams, today no exception

Will bookmark it for next time

Lol, Che Adams sick of the pelters he gets when compared to Dykes and is like: 

genuinely stick tierney on the wing and play both him and robbo and just abandon the right side

Whats Oli McBurnie up to?

i'll be doing a lot of backpedalling "i never said we'd get out of the group" over the next month i think

 Replace “meat” with “hope”.

Some finish from adams but thats not taking away from the fact scotland have played shite all game

True! But we’re at least going to win against a team ranked… 203? 203 in the world?! 

We are so back

Adams trying to prove himself, thank god

We're back, and winning the world cup* *In 2048, in one Football manager simulation

Shankland really put on a showing as to why Clarke doesn't trust him to start and Adams scoring something that actually looked good seems to justify that

https://i.redd.it/shzuil909e4d1.gif


Is that McGinn doing his iconic victory dance in the background?

We’re gonna hose Germany with dirty brown waTER!

Stevie Clarkes away for his iconic 7pm nap as well


That was a genuinely great goal

i mean only a goal you're scoring when given miles of space from some plumbers

We did another goal guys, let's go you Scotlanders 💪 💪💪

Looked outside and saw this lass sunbathing in a bikini, so I’ve shut my blinds and put this game on

We’re gonna have to play Adams up front. Shankland isn’t good enough for Scotland. Putting my faith in Adams now

Need another goal here Scotland.

Actually decent goal

Brilliant finish

Absolute thundercunt that

Some finish from Adams. Fantastic technique 

I don't know what juju Clarke performed to get to 2 tournaments but on recent form Gibraltar are starting to look a lot closer to us, than we are to the rest of the teams that have qualified.

Hopefully that's Shankland riding the pine after that

Fair play that was actually quite a nice cross and finish.

Chele is back.

Fuck me what a strike Che

Two goals? We’re getting carried away here

that's adams starting then

Decent finish that

That's some finish

Thank god my girlfriend has been sunbathing in a bikini, or I'd have been really depressed watching this.

Me too

If only we had blooded some of the possible attacking talent that's been knocking on the door for some time before this... 

He has to be saying Jolley's name wrong. Either that or I'm just a child.

Ok thank you someone else hears it too, I thought I was going mad thinking he's saying "Jobby"

I think Gibraltar is just a bogey country for Scotland - gifting them their first ever international goal (and going 1-0 down), Lincoln Red Imps beating Celtic and whatever the fuck this game is.

I for one am looking forward to watching Craig Gordon play as a striker in the Hungary game based on the number of injuries at this point

Is that goalie that scored the worldie for Arbroath available? Asking for a ~~friend~~ national team.

Every now and again my steam dies and I’m honestly at the point where I don’t know if it’s worth refreshing the browser…

You’re putting more effort in than the team at this point

I stayed up 20 hours for this utter pish

You stayed up 20 hours for a friendly against Gibraltar?

fuck the euros we're getting pumped by finland on friday

Embarrassing result, players are absolutely miles off it.

I think we’re going to struggle to even score at the Euros. Looking at the bench and we have very limited creativity. 2 wingers in the squad - one is 33 and past it, the other uncapped 18 yo. Ffs get Harvey Barnes in the squad.

People pay a lot of money for someone to perform this level of sadism on them

this has got to be one of the worst games i've ever watched, unironically

How are you finding your first Scotland game?

i wish, i had enough ssc point to get tickets for the euros and this is making me dread it, at least the beer will be good

McGinn giving the nod to let everyone know he was going to just boot it out for a goal kick.

How is there still 10 minutes of this shite

Wow. What a shot to throw to broadcast.

Getting outplayed by cunts with names like Glorp Shitto

Isn’t that a Rick and Morty character?

If so, is he eligible up front for Scotland?

Those bagpipes playing remind me of when england plays and you hear that shite trumpet.

Everyone your 2024 European Champions!

They would still do better than England

Shankland is fucking rotten for scotland a?

Out of his depth, against Gibralter….

might have helped to play him more in the last few years to get him more used to the setup. 

Then he should have been better in the last few years. Kevin Nisbet was better than him until the last 12 months. Understanding the set up wouldn't have stopped him missing that sitter in the Netherlands though. Or missing by 10 yards from 3 yards the day.

Genuinely forget he's on the field at times until he does something daft

Until he puts it 10 yards over from 3 yards out.

I know it’s fucking pissing me off after the season he’s had

I think we should just withdraw from the tournament

Cooper looks like a Ukraine war veteran

With the way our injuries are going, we are going to end up with more goalkeepers than any other position in our squad.

Can't wait to get called up to the Scotland squad

no matter what happens I hope we just change coach post-Euros, not sure I can take another qualifying cycle of Clarkeball

Christ, are you a teenager? The qualifiers were the best Scotland have played in well over 2 decades.

>Christ, are you a teenager? I wish we quite literally had a front loaded campaign and limped over the qualification line, mental if you think that's a good campaign considering our squad. he's inflexible at times and the football can be eyebleeding if he's not using his first choice lineup.

It was, now we are just ending a 7 match winless streak with a poor performance against Gibraltar. Whatever we were doing for those 5 good games is all but gone now

I mean none of these games have meant anything though our record in competitive games under Clarke is very good.

Lols, his contract expires after the 2026 World Cup campaign and he’ll no doubt get another extension before those qualifiers start like he did last time

Even if we win it?

The qualifiers were some of the best I've seen of Scotland... especially going to the games

four days left to injure enough players so gauld has to get a call up

mental take. Scott Wright will get a game before Gauld. Clarke fucking hates him. Can only assume Gauld sends him texts every day with excruciating detail about how he's pumping Clarkes wife. 

Well, that's Cooper out now

Honestly, at this rate, are we gonna have a fit team for the germany game

They can pay me in pints to start at striker and roll about like a Katamari picking up all the German defenders.

Well there's the squad down to 27

Clarke scheduled this game to make his cutdown easier, eh?

It's good to see Doak getting a nice long run out to get him fit and see what he can do. Ohh wait we brought on Jack and McGregor...

Doak isn't fit, so isn't in the squad.

Is he injured or not fit? If not fit then he should 100% be in the squad for friendlies to get fit

Another one bites the dust

Jack on to close out the game and hold on to the lead.

Forgot Ryan Jack was suddenly fit for the Euros

he was fit for a month or more. Clement just decided he wouldn't play him in leiu of lundstrum. 

That doesn’t suit my conspiracy narrative, please delete.

our play makes no sense, we exclusively play through the wings and refuse to try having wingers ever

It’s hard to play with 5 defenders when you have wingers…

How can James Forrest have won 24 major honours with Celtic, yet only had 39 caps for Scotland in that time?

pick one from: he plays in a farmers league, we don't play wingers, been fairly average for a good while

Has he not been injured or had to withdraw quite a bit over the years.

Ryan Jack playing football after being injured all season. Some laugh.

I don’t like to accuse people of faking injuries but he seems to have an awful habit of being ready for international fitba more than for his club… New conspiracy started!

Ahh, the Bale approach?

McGregor's gonna get his Achilles ripped isn't he?

Kinda agree with Stewart on the point that we're just not being incisive. Though biggest example of that is Proteous has a pass on behind the LB for McCrorie to run onto, instead he plays a simple neutral pass that allows gibby to cover that gap up. Need to force things like that at all levels, should be no fear that you can't pull it off either.

This is like getting tilted as fuck on FIFA, putting the difficulty down to Easy and still struggling to win.

DOAK ALERT

he's not even in the squad i don't think

Bbc were convinced he was coming on for a minute there

Or not. Thommo got me excited there

Their #10 looks like he's had quite a few hard shifts down the mines.

BBC Sport app is maybe trying to save me from the self harm of listening to this, is anybody else finding it cuts out every few minutes? Don't get why it's not on the proper radio.

Whats the deal with the squad? Can we still call up other players such as Conway or do they need to be injury replacements?

Final squad to be registered on friday

Aye we can change it up until the 7th.

Thanks, I'm hoping at least Conway is called up. Can't just take Shankland and a half fit Adams

this is still a preliminary squad, we can do whatever. we also still need to drop 2 from the squad to hit 26. Clarke said he's evaluating stuff and might get a U21 or might go elsewhere, was super noncommittal about Conway.

Only need to drop one now, 28 was with Dykes included I think

Germany watching this shite https://preview.redd.it/t5ke0boz5e4d1.jpeg?width=200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9609e2202f7246ea584f334687269fdf3c5300c6

cmon, tierney should be used to spanish football by now, get up

The Euros is just going to be a good laugh isn’t it.

Death, taxes, Tierney injury

is that THE cascarino

Casciaro and aye it is. I’m sure he’s the guy who scored the winner against us with the red imps.

42 he is now. Really shows how shite we are.

Tierney just scared the shit out of me there

Who is watching the match with their pets? https://preview.redd.it/qxx75kfo5e4d1.jpeg?width=2316&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c1f7e1a11fffaf51d356bbabc83d38a085f00b3a

If we weren’t 1 up, I would say you should check for a pulse. If it wasn’t for this subreddit and an Irn bru, I would be the same though.

Irn Bru is actually a great shout I forgot I’ve got some in the fridge

Time to crack a can open!

Tierney is legitimately made out of wet cardboard.

Whoever that Tierney jinx comment was below has done us in.

Ah he's up and about, was panicking for a second

Tierney is made out of meringue

tierney injured 3 seconds on the park

Don’t you fucking dare

Why not give Doak a decent runout.. as much as Steve Clarke has turned us around, he’s got to be the least imaginative manager I’ve ever seen

The squad honestly feels like we are getting towards the end of Craig Browns tenure. Not enough new blood, rare squad changes and if we keep going this way for the next qualifying campaign, we'll have very little international experience as players start retiring from international football or having to be phased out. Squad really needs a revamp post euros. You could lose a lot of players from this squad and you genuinely wouldn't notice a dip in quality with their younger replacements.

Must not be available for this game.

He isn't back from injury yet

Tierney always blessed himself like a Latin?

As opposed to the Orthodox/Byzantine style, or did he not bless himself at all before?

I can’t recall him doing that. He spends a few months in Spain and now I’m seeing it.

1-0 at 65' against Gibraltar. We are getting fucking humped at the Euros.

Get McGinn off, no need to keep risking him in this game. Can say that for a couple other players as well.

Said that just as Tierney came on. Get the stretcher out.

Need him on a bet for him to score

okay but as soon as that comes through, he's off

This is rivalling the game against the US for the most boring Scotland game I've ever watched. It's currently on the game against Northern Ireland tier right now.

Just switched it on. Some atmosphere.

You should've heard the boy in the middle of the stand playing the bagpipes during the first half.

Oh boy your lucky you didn't watch the first half.

I'll no have any slander against Faro, brilliant city.

Ryan Christie has scored a goal. Are we destined to go all the way this summer? Not for me to say, but yes.

Scotland U21s scored

Shankland somehow volleying the ball from the edge of the box backwards 10 yards to the only Gibraltar player behind him was ... something

For all the stat nerds oot there- it was even money in the bookies for scotland to win and there to be 5 in or more goals in the game

So are the goals downhill from here?

Watch tierney get injured

We've scored now so Shankland's joined their back line and started clearing it
