I am expecting a win,tbh. But it is all over, again,for this campaign and I'm starting think who will be the next Scotland manager??.

Venue: Hampden Park, Glasgow Date: 6 September 2011 Kick-off: 2000 BST Coverage: BBC Radio Scotland, BBC Sport website, highlights online and on BBC 1 Scotland 2235 BST David Goodwillie will make first start for Scotland against Lithuania Craig Levein has backed David Goodwillie to handle the pressure of making his first international start against Lithuania on Tuesday. Goodwillie will win his second cap in the Euro 2012 qualifier with Levein's striking options limited. Kenny Miller is out through suspension, while a back injury has ruled out Craig Mackail-Smith. "What an opportunity for a young lad to get a chance to play in a game of this magnitude," the Scotland manager said. "Technically he has the ability and also knowing him personally he won't be fazed by the size of this game. "I put David Goodwillie in the squad for a reason - that's because I feel he's capable of playing international football. Scotland coach Craig Levein Injury and suspension have forced Levein to make changes "David would sit third in the pecking order and what a great opportunity for him. "If I'm David Goodwillie it's an exciting time for me." The 22-year-old Blackburn player is the only other listed forward in the squad and has played just 14 minutes of international football previously, as a substitute in a friendly win over the Faroe Islands last year. Meanwhile, Charlie Adam has returned to Liverpool after coming off during Saturday's 2-2 draw against the Czech Republic due to a hip flexor problem, but Levein has Steven Whittaker available again after suspension and Grant Hanley back following a bout of tonsilitis. Rangers full-back Whittaker may well be needed with both Alan Hutton and Phil Bardsley doubtful for the game. Left-back Bardsley was substituted just before the Czechs netted their first equaliser and Hutton was suffering after his first competitive game of the season. Levein, who will delay naming his team until tomorrow, said: "The other two who are a little bit doubtful are Phil Bardsley, who came off on Saturday with adead leg, and Alan Hutton has a tight groin but I think he will be okay." Despite the call-offs, the Scotland manager has chosen not to call up any replacements. "I thought about it but I put 25 players in the squad," he said. "We have lost a few but I still feel we have lots of options so I'm comfortable." Midfielder Scott Brown will also miss the must-win match through suspension. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/scotland/14782670.stm As much as I want to see Scotland win I do believe they have had their last chance by not beating the Czech Republic. The runners-up from Group I will go into a play-off for Euro 2012 regardless of their points total. But to finish in second place, Scotland need to win their three remaining matches against Lithuania, Liechtenstein and Spain, and hope the Czech Republic drop points in their two final games. If the Czechs win one and draw one of those games, at home to Spain and away to Lithuania, they would still progress to Poland and Ukraine if the Scots take nine points. The rivals would finish level on 14 points and the Czechs would go through by merit of their head-to-head record. If Michal Bilekââ?¬â?¢s team lose both their games ââ?¬â?? and they lost to Lithuania at home and Spain away ââ?¬â?? and Craig Leveinââ?¬â?¢s side win two of their last three games, then we will progress. If Tomas Rosicky and Co. draw their remaining two games they would move to 12 points and Scotland would not make it if they win two and draw one of their fixtures. The 1-0 defeat the national team suffered in Prague last year could well prove costly to our hopes of reaching a major finals for the first time since France in 1998.

No,you're just a heid nipper most of the time:smile:

Right,consider yourself dumped:grin:

Aye,only because he's your bum chum:whistle:

Don't bite Johnny,bum chum:tongue:

You really are a heid nipper. I remember how well we played,the Mols injury was a part of that game,but the performance was terrific. Now,I hope no-one agrees with me,save any paranoia:tongue:. And I don't care who remembers the game for Mols injury,I don't.

In case anybody missed it yesterday there's another chance this morning Sky Sports 1 at 9:00am,and again at 2pm

The overall team performance that night stands out the most for me,even when Mols went off injured, we were fantastic.We outplayed one of the European greats on their own pitch and really should have won,very very unlucky.

Night and day from what we have now eh?.

Well if that's all you remember about the game it's a shame.

Watching Mols tonight reminded of this game

Early signs of senial dementia???

Mols player of the tournament,looks like he could still do a job,as did Albertz

Rangers won the tournament,CHAMPIONEEEES Leeds 8-3 in the final

SEETHING Sion owner Christian Constantin has vowed to take his side to Madrid for the opening game of the Europa League groups - and insists they WILL play Atletico. Celtic boss Neil Lennon saw his side take the Swiss club's place in Group I on Friday after UEFA kicked Sion out for breaching a transfer embargo. However, Constantin has branded their decision worthy of a Banana Republic. And he is adamant Sion will take on UEFA's bigwigs and beat them through the courts. Constantin fumed: "The dice were loaded. It is a travesty of justice - worthy of a Banana Republic. But it only makes me want to fight harder. It is fighting against Goliath but in the end weââ?¬â?¢ll see where David is. ââ?¬Å?The verdict doesnââ?¬â?¢t surprise me at all. When less than an hour is enough to make such a decision, this means that judges are there to formalize a sanction decided in advance. ââ?¬Å?In addition, all necessary steps for an appeal to UEFA lead us beyond September 15, the date of the first group game. So we will be there in Madrid and we will play. I will take that bet.ââ?¬Â The fired-up Swiss supremo also claimed there was evidence of a carve-up, insisting the news of Celticââ?¬â?¢s reinstatement was announced on the clubââ?¬â?¢s official website nearly an hour and a half before UEFA delivered their formal verdict. He sighed: ââ?¬Å?It surprises you that it was all planned? I could see this verdict coming like I was reading a road map.ââ?¬Â Constantin takes heart from Portoââ?¬â?¢s successful appeal in 2008 after they were initially booted out of the Champions League due to a bribery investigation. He said: ââ?¬Å?We will appeal for sure - the same way Porto did when they won reinstatement. ââ?¬Å?But we will be going on the offensive on other fronts too.ââ?¬Â http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/2011/09/04/sion-chief-christian-constantin-we-will-play-atletico-madrid-on-september-15-86908-23395257/
