Off to watch Scotland take on Norway at the Fez tonight. Must win game. Why is it that no matter how pish poor we perform on a consistent basis, the majority of Scottish fans arrive at the pub/game with the unwavering belief that we are going to win? Anyway here's hoping!!!

We'll be coming................

RE msg 9, nurseawful: (...) Predicitions for the England v Holland game now gentlemen? (...)



=> Come on, nurse. Let's not talk about tonight's walk-over... I'm looking forward to Scotland-Holland in September. Errm, what was the score for Holland-Scotland, earlier this year..? I have to Google it, because Holland wins sooooo many matches, that I tend to forget minor wins... Ah, here it is: Holland-Scotland 3-0... I'm so sorry that the Scottish fans will have not one reason to travel to South-Africa in 2010... I'll send you a postcard from Kaapstad (Capetown)...

I hope that Scotland can win tonight but worryingly the Norwegian manager has not lost his last 30 home games so tonight would be a good time to end that record.

Congratulations to the Jocks for finding their way to the stadium.



The only got lost when they ran out on the pitch



Another poor performance, the fans deserve far better than that but it says a lot about the standard of the Scottish league

I get asked so many times why the Jocks are so against the English and it is always asked by englishmen.

This thread is about Scotland Norway but the English still had to get in their little nips. OK, we got beat in fact we got tanked but what on earth has that got to do with the England game. The digs work in both directions, the difference is we celebrate a victory like maniacs and unfortunately for our reputation we celebrate a loss just as much.



C'mon the jocks, we are at that normal stage now where we don't have a chance of qualifying outright and that is normally when we get really close but not quite.

What a wonderful evening at the Paradise seeing Scotland get hammered and having a nice little touch on Norway at even money. Roll on their next match.

Put some of my ill gotton gains on Spurs to get relegated at 90 to 1.
