A quick word? Velocity! Scotland under Gordon Strachan 2013-2016

Pub is looking more of a good idea as kick-off approaches (also have a £20 bar tab to spent from pub quiz winnings)

Griffiths is a waste if he's up front on his own imo. Would rather see him in a more withdrawn Commonsy role or with a strike partner who isn't Kenny Miller.

Aye, he might as well not have been there against Croatia. I'd try him up front with Jordan Rhodes, what's the worst that can happen?

he played alongside Doyle for most of Saturday, definitely benefited from being able to drop deeper

time to knock the English off their, um, wee ladder thing

McGregor, Hutton, Hanley, Martin, Whittaker, Snodgrass, Brown, Morrison, Forrest, Maloney, Miller

fuckin

I have no words. Well, I have plenty, but you've heard them all before.

keeps me out of the pub anyway

Kenny Misser smh

are there going to be different commentaries tonight?

Who do you have in Englandshire? We've got Derek Rae and Alan Brazil on STV.

Jimmy Hill and Nick Griffin

is that chalk drawing itv are using in their branding supposed to be a joke? proper MOPA job.

palmed in, lovely jubbly

bgkitw

reminds me of how Steve Smith got out at the weekend

Within an ace of fucking it

Former England defender Danny Mills on BBC Radio 5 live
England 0-1 Scotland
"Scotland now have something to protect, to give them the belief to really throw themselves into challenges.

"If you think back to Chelsea v Barcelona, it is very hard to score against well-organised teams who sit deep.

"Scotland are no mugs, it will be difficult for England to break them down."

kenny fuckin' miller eh

Handball but get in ya bass

Fuckin

I might use my mod powers to delete all negative comments about Miller upthread :-)

he made Cahill look a right dick there

Also lolz @ Alan Brazil's use of the verb "bing" to describe Miller's shot.

(PS I have Snodgrass to score at any time. Any chance we could get a third?)

oh well

Baws.

You can see the shite running out of Whittaker every time anyone goes near him.

Yeah if we'd scored then that would've been on him, couldn't clear even when he wasn't under pressure

Ah ffs but that's actually heartwarming

Gah. Pleased for the lad though.

Now that's got to warm the cockles of your heart

Whole game turned once England realised they were taller than us.

My cockles are distinctly unwarmed, tbh. Sorry.

Trying to work out who was marking Lambert. There doesn't seem to be anyone even looking at him.

Everyone moaning about miller pre-match when despite his limitations he remains the best scottish striker smh. Anti-mls bias, he's been bossing it for the whitecaps of late.

One good goal doesn't negate years of getting picked for doing nothing but chase hopeless causes imo

I am slightly terrified that he's scored his way into staying in the team.

Oh look the England thread got bumped. Yous only post when you're winning :)

Just trying to keep the crowing over this particular England victory where all yous might see it tbh

Does 'good pro' necessarily also mean 'a bit crap'? Because Kenny Miller's a good pro, you can't deny.

winning was good while it lasted but tbh England's subs > Scotland's first XI

Townsend's just given MOTM to Welbeck. Who's it gone to on Scottish TV?

Hutton youre still pickin hutton

from hero to zero. That was an open goal no?

ikr xp

Both full backs are a fucking nightmare

and again. Rickie Lee's packed a full international career narrative into his 20 mins

Bounce or deflection right beforehand but he should stick the next one away

Exceptionally enjoyable, as England games go. And not* because we won.

*Only

Oh well. England miles better in truth but we done good there.

Didn't hear them pick a MOTM but I'd stopped listening to Alan Brazil jizzing all over Englandshire's finest a while back.

No motm named on STV. Welbeck probably right, or maybe Walcott. Miller best player for Scotland.
