Mr Sifter Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Just checked and there doesn’t seem to be a thread for tonight yet, so here it is. Ken it’s just a friendly but I’d still prefer to see us avoid a heavy defeat tonight. Read somewhere yesterday that there could be up to six changes from the team that took to the field last week in Seville. A start for Zander perhaps?

tazhearts Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Scotland have played France 16 times before. France have won 8. Scotland have won 8 (not bad for a wee diddy team). Zero draws. Tonight is the decider! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckies1874 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) I would think Lewis Ferguson should definitely get an opportunity. Patterson will be in for Hickey and I suspect Souttar, Gilmour and Armstrong will come into the team. Possible they change the keepers though Gunn is clearly superior to both Clark and Kelly so really it's a reward for being in the squad rather than on merit. Gordon will presumably be targeting being the back up asap. Edited October 17, 2023 by Luckies1874 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckies1874 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 The atmosphere at Wembley is embarrassing. Italy winning is not actually great for our chances of finishing best runner up as would bring them into the mix with Austria but that said I still cheered the goal.
