It is absurd that Scotland might not know whether they are through or not until the early hours of Sunday morning when Austria and Algeria will play, knowing that a tame draw will see them both safely through. Meanwhile, the team will have to train assuming that they will qualify whilst fans continue to pay money hand over fist to continue staying in the USA in order to support their team in the event of results going their way. I think Scotland will go through. Four of the teams above them still have games to play and could drop below them with defeats, although probably by a couple of goals or more. And realistically, I can only see Belgium and Congo moving above them. In Belgium's group, if they beat New Zealand and Egypt beat Iran, then Iran would go 3rd with just 2 points. It looks like a nervy 3 days.

Whatever happened to John Scott?
Was at Liverpool I believe before joining Caley. Looked a very decent player against Rangers in the 1996 quarter final. Then seemed to disappear. Was only 21 when he played his last Caley Thistle game.
