In a way I hope that England and Italy do not qualify. Then the money men will point out that to have a major tournament without two of the biggest footballing nations is commercial madness. My rule for Monsieur Platini is that World cup winners should not have to qualify.
Anyway, good luck to Scotland I hope that they finish the job off.

hey who cares if we dont make it we get to kick 10 lumps out of the english on the park at wembley as part of the one off home nations

i can just see them over paid premadonnas of the premiership getting carried off the pitch now when the scots start swinging the boot and missing

I'd concentrate on qualifying then (as i hope you do) because if you don't theres no chance we're hanging about here to play you lot!

The FA wouldn't want us to lose to you (which is fairly likely) plus the other 2 teams are tosh, oh and not to mention we still have wembley to pay for....Tour of Asia here we come!

Not bothered if we qualify or not at this point, the boys have done so good, confounded expectations, catapulted up in the world rankings etc. Anything more is a bonus.

Heard a good quote that pretty much sums it up - 'I can handle the despair, it's the optimism I cannae cope with'

Hope that they go into this one knowing that no matter what, we are proud of them.

I know what you mean but that's loser talk.

We are a nation plagued by this sort of attitude.

I expect us to win and I'll be disapointed if we don't. None of this "Glorious losers" sh!te

Come 5'oclock tommorow it'll be cold, dark and pishing down and there will be 50,000 Scots inside Hampden who've been drinking since mid-day to paraphrase our neigbours from the south... "Scotland Expects"

Already proud of their achievements so far considering the doldrums of the last many years.

Hope that they go into this one knowing that no matter what, we are proud of them. Hopefully this will allow them to play with less pressure and take down the win..one time!!

The whole quote was put together as a reason for encouraging them to play without fear of being deemed losers.

Glad you know me so well to determine I have a losing attitude.

lol yeah..if anyone knows anything about going into something as an under dog and luck boxing his way out to the top, it's Geo. Geo IS the Scottish mentality Wink (and a gent on top of it). I hope they succeed and even believe they can do it..I sure as hell wouldn't have said that at the start of the campaign.
