Robbo was around at a time of good Scotland strikers. He was unfortunate. I love the wee man to death but he wasn’t better than Mo Johnston imo and was a pure penalty box player at a time when that kind of player was dying out in the game. Especially at international level and even more especially for us as a nation. Hearts win plums generally and had won plums for donkeys years around that time. The strikers who went played at higher level is the cold hard facts tbh as good a season as he had that WC year. He should’ve got more caps but definitely in the years previous. As the 90’s wore on he was never good enough imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fraggle Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Club first and foremost. Was a time where it was both equally but various factors ebbed that away. In saying that though, the big pull for the national team, as others have mentioned, is being able to enjoy it with your mates either at a game or in the pub. But, the overall feeling of belonging, excitement, hurt, passion, memories, traditions, etc. burn way stronger for Hearts. I mean come on ... that badge, that glorious colour, the surroundings, the walk up Dalry and Gorgie Rd, catching a wiff of the distillery, seeing the floodlights and stanchions piercing the skyline, the anticipation of waiting to get in, the noise of the turnstiles clicking, the steady rumble of chatter in the concourse giving way to the sound generated in those Munro esq inclined stands, the chills and anticipation when you hear the first few chords of that accordion, that song (our song and no others!), that wall of noise when it gets going, that name ...... Heart of Midlothian!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 All about Hearts for me. Hope Scotland do well but it won't impact on me at all if they don't. Roxburgh/Broon and their disregard for Robbo sickened me. 3 starts, 2 goals; John proved he could do it at that level but it still wasn't enough. Honestly wish I felt the Scotland thing a bit more. Times change though and I like Stevie Clarke. Would be nice to progress from the group. That, alongside some good performances, would be a boost for the country. Qualification certainly had an impact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The National team have pissed me off for years but since Clarke has came in and looking at the current group of players it’s probably the best squad of players we have had in a long time . come on Scotland 🏴🏴🏴 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DS98 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Sounds like I’m about the only one who still thinks Steve Clarke is gormless twat? A penalty save against Serbia won’t change my mind. Just can’t take to the guy. Fair play he’s a very good tactician but he’s got the best pool of players we’ve had in years to choose from. Full of Premier League talent, two Champs League winners and Man Utds player of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
