Scotland

Well i know i should be grateful that our national football team has restored a modicum of pride, ever since the 6-0 Holland match it has been a total nightmare for those that care about the Scotland team. However one can't help but wonder just why we were so poor under Berti Voghts, it's easy to blame the manager for the lack of organisation and spirit within the squad but at some point you have to question why almost the same players didn't seem to give the same effort that they have done recently?

So long as the improvement continues i'll be happier i guess and whether or not we pull the cat oot the bag and make the World Cup Finals lets damn well make a better fist of qualifying for the next couple of major championships. It is a disgrace that a country with the passion for football that Scotland has is in danger of going 10 years and 4 tournaments without qualifying for the final stages.

When we consider a draw with Italy as disappointing i guess we are on track, fingers crossed we can win in Norway on wednesday.
