Unless Rangers & Celtic stop buying foreign players, or Scots start supporting their local teams instead of one of these 2...
I cant see Scotland doing well in International Football anytime soon :(
Not that England is any better :lol:

Here's hoping things make a drastic improvement and miracles happen. At least it can't get any worse.

Strachan for the win tbh.
I think I would have preferred Strachan - anybody that could make Southampton believe in themselves deserves a chance at the "worst job"
Let Walter Smith get sacked having done all the hard work in turning the team around (hopefully) and then Strachan can take the reigns. :01:
Walter Smith is the best man for the job. No doubts.
Strachan is a little young and woefully inexperienced to be considered for the job. It wasn't he that got Southampton believing in themselves, it was Hoddle before him. Strachan merely took over a buoyant team and kept them at that level. His record previous to that is pretty non descript. Also I don't believe Strachan would have a decent knowledge of the Scottish Players pool.
Walter Smith is definitely the better choice at this time.
However, Nothing is going to mask the dearth of quality players. When I was growing up I remember players like Richard Gough, Ally McCoist, Paul McStay, Colin Hendry, Mo Johnston and Jim Leighton playing in the Scotland team. Now there is no-one that springs to mind as an established 'star'.
Hopefully the SFA will give Walter a good run to put his system in place so he can reap the benefits of the younger genration coming through because at present the talent levels have to be at an all time low.
Also I think Wales will find themselves in a similar situation in a couple of years, a lot of our top players have retired recently :(
Eh? Your blaming the national teams for the death of Scotland legend?Quote:
