The last save is a cracker, right out of the top drawer.

Scotland team for Holland
As I mentioned in the Macedonia thread. I would have the same back 5 that played 75 minutes on Saturday. I would bring Caldwell in as a holding midfielder and have Brown, Maloney and Darren Fletcher in front of him with Miller and Steven Fletcher up front as there is a chance to change the formation about, moving S. Fletcher to left midfield to go 4-1-4-1 if required.

Was just the two boys, I was standing next to them at that point.

Can Scotland reach the playoffs
Yeah this is true. As we are the only group with 5 teams so every other second placed team loses the points they gained against the bottom team. If that is the points without that taken into consideration then we may only need a point to get into the playoffs.

Help required
Would probably assume it is Guy Kerr seeing as they both came through at the same time. He is now at East Fife.

Stuart Soane? We could be here all day

Can Scotland reach the playoffs
Got to agree with that, don't think a draw will be enough but with a win I would be pretty confident of a play off place.

Scotland squad vs Macedonia
I knew a few teams came into it but I didn't want to check as I didn't really want to get too far ahead of myself.
-
Scotland squad vs Macedonia
As we are in a 5 team group the other 2nd place teams lose the points gained from the bottom side in their group so the majority of teams who finish 2nd will have 6 points taken off their final totals and the top eight runners up are put forward into the play offs.

Hastings Gone & Golly Back
I can quite believe the rumour of Bazza coming back, probably in a player/coach capacity.

Ryan Esson
He also saved one in the shoot out against Montrose :)
-
Scotland squad vs Macedonia
Thought we looked better at 4-4-2 however without Faddy I can see us struggling to break down the Dutch. I would go with: Gordon Hutton Weir McManus Whittaker D. Fletcher Caldwell Brown Maloney S. Fletcher Miller

Ryan Esson
He saved one at Tynecastle and one at Easter Road last year, think Broonie only had two penalty saves in all the years he was here.

Scotland squad vs Macedonia
Sort of thing that would have wound me up if it had been against me but I thought it was brilliant. The Macedonians were going to give it back to us but for a throw in deep in our half so it was a brilliant piece of play and the best of a very poor first half. If we can get the ball down and play like we did in the second half I feel we do have a slight chance.

Scotland squad vs Macedonia
Believe I do believe, it's just that when your following the national team you have to prepare yourself for the little bit of disappointment.

Scotland squad vs Macedonia
Guess I'll fifth it. Having now deemed the Holland game pointless I have developed the typical Scottish hope towards it. However, no doubt it will have disappeared by 9.30 on Wednesday night.

Scotland squad vs Macedonia
Well it was either McManus or Darren Barr

Scotland squad vs Macedonia
Would have rather had Whittaker at LB and Hartley in the holding midfielder role instead of Alexander but apart from that it looks like a decent line up.

McGeady sending off
What a difference 5 days make. Mowbray is such a hypocrite, he says McGeady was anticipating the tackle so was beginning to fall. You could say exactly the same about Eduardo on Tuesday, or as I would call 'cheating'

Team For Partick
Sutherland??? If its Zander, he's gone to Buckie. Barrowman, i thought he was already fit and he was just being left out of the selection. That's Shane, think Barrowman is on the verge of being fit hence why he was given a run out against Wick.
-
Team For Partick
As you have spotted there is no Eagle don't think he has done anything so far that shows me he can do anything. Need to have Hayes on the left as he has no right foot so it was a case of Ross or Proctor for the right wing berth.

Train travel to Firhill
An extra ?30 quid for everyone for the sake of one person? I know what I'd be telling them to do.

Team For Partick
