Only reason to "celebrate" scoring against them in those conditions, & already 5 up, is trying to do a knee slide the length of the pitch.

Tier 1/2 nations (Netherlands, England, Sweden, Denmark) their places in the playoffs aren't required so they trickle down to us This explains it https://www.uefa.com/european-qualifiers/news/0254-0d40fc7db8ee-f6fe04623679-1000--uefa-euro-2020-play-offs-as-they-stand/ Edited October 13, 2019 by Thommo414 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamie1874 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 The 4 tier 3 play off countries are Scotland Finland serbia norway however Finland are currently on course for automatic qualification therefore their place is given to the next best in the third tier.

But its actually done via a draw to see who goes into the playoffs for each tier.

If we'd got pumped out our Nations League group by Israel or Albania we'd still have been in there with a shot? Seems hard to believe but UEFA move in strange ways.

I was at the game and didn't celebrate the goal. Just felt a really classless thing to do. Keeper was clearly really embarassed by his mistake. San Marino players were begging Robertson to tell Armstrong to give it back to the keeper. The fact Armstrong didn't celebrate suggests he knew it was a dick move.

Yeah or it may be the SFA planted a low-ball story so that when the crowd was announced it feels surprisingly big rather than pretty dismal.
