Nah %^*& the national team. I’ll continue to hope they get pumped in every game
I wish folk would get over the whole hatred of Scotland thing. That kind of behaviour just lets the arseholes win.
No matter who fucked us over Scotland is still my country and these fuds won’t change that.
Add to that there are always going to be bluenoses who love playing for Scotland so I’ll still be supporting them too.
Michael ONeill confirming that McCausland is out of the game Tues night, good for Rangers although would have loved to have seen him up against Souttar.
Wouldnt care in the slightest. My tune towards the Rangers hating tartan army would be the sameSee all the guys saying they don’t watch or have any love for Scotland I have a hypothetical question. If I’m five years time the Scotland starting 11 had 8 or 9 rangers players would you watch or still hope they get beat or couldn’t care etc? I’m just interested I think their tune would quickly change
I don’t really care about international football, sometimes wish I did but I don’t get any buzz at all. Couldn’t have even told you who Scotland were playing last night until the match thread on here.See all the guys saying they don’t watch or have any love for Scotland I have a hypothetical question.

No.See all the guys saying they don’t watch or have any love for Scotland I have a hypothetical question.

They may be bluenose’s but only 2 of that list are rangers players and they are far from guaranteed starters.It’s called the national team. It represents the whole country. Souttar, Shankland, Gilmour, Patterson, Lewis Ferguson and Kenny McLean all playing tonight. A fit Ryan Jack would be in the team too. All bluenoses. Non tramps.
These guys would all no doubt say that it’s an honour to play for their country, so it’s a shame that for such a big part of their career they don’t get the support they deserve.
Surely if any of these guys felt the same they would boycott it? When was the last time you heard of a Rangers player that turned down playing for Scotland when he had the chance?
Again it’s like cutting your nose off to spite your face.
And btw I was calling the Rangers haters in the Scotland support arseholes and fuds.
Nope, why would it.See all the guys saying they don’t watch or have any love for Scotland I have a hypothetical question.

They do.
What's my like? No gloating about our country getting pumped? How on earth is that weird?
Moving the games to that shit ppv channel has been a really bad decision from that perspective. All about the money for the greedy bastards in power.I don’t really care about international football, sometimes wish I did but I don’t get any buzz at all. Couldn’t have even told you who Scotland were playing last night until the match thread on here.
Amazing the naivety of some fans.
Shankland has a poor game (alongside most of his team-mates) against one of the best CB's in the World and so now he's shite.
I'm glad we never signed him, not because I think he's a poor player but because he just wouldn't be a wise investment at his age, but to judge him on last night's game is daft.
I can assure you I've never thought that. Neither are good enough.Shankland misses one chance, he's shite and thank %^*& we never signed him.
Dessers missed 400 and people think he will still come good.
It is not naivety it is confirmation bias, the goals he scores dont really count as they come in the spfl(not the big money sky or tnt sports leagues) forget the fact that is our league and they count for our strikers. If he misses a sitter that proves...i was right i telt you he is crap not good enough to play for Rangers.Amazing the naivety of some fans.

And he was not terrible first half he played well in the role we were told a million times he cannot do, 2nd was quieter. Had that shot been a bit more accurate they would be saying it is only a friendly.
Why is it good? It means he’s not fit !Michael ONeill confirming that McCausland is out of the game Tues night, good for Rangers although would have loved to have seen him up against Souttar.
Fill your boots, and I genuinely hope you have great times supporting Scotland for many years to come but things have changed so much for some of us older bears. I for one will never rekindle my passion for the national team. As a young lad growing up in the great football days of the 70’s and then travelling to matches all over the place in the 80’s I was passionately following Rangers, Liverpool and Scotland and went to loads of games at Ibrox, Anfield and Hampden and had the great experience of being at the 1984 European Cup Final with Liverpool and the 1990 World Cup Finals with Scotland but sadly, I now have absolutely no allegiance whatsoever towards Liverpool or Scotland and for basically the same reason, the anti British, anti monarchy factions within their hordes is disgusting in my eyes. Only my opinion of course.
Wouldn't make any difference to me.See all the guys saying they don’t watch or have any love for Scotland I have a hypothetical question.

You liar.
You didn't see Scotland v Holland in 1966
You either watched a different game or missed the chances Scotland created.They were good at closing the Netherlands down in the first half but they didn’t really know what to do with the ball once they’d won possession.
WhateverThey may be bluenose’s but only 2 of that list are rangers players and they are far from guaranteed starters.
And when they do get out they are boo’d on the regular.
I’d rather watch Corrie
I'm sure you have never watched Scotland play Holland.. Maybe you watched them play The Netherlands.I'm sure I did.
May, 11th, 1966.
The money went to the Winston Churchill Charity Appeal.
Of course they would.With the amount of teams in it now and the backdoor route of the Nations League and play offs both Walter and Eck (first spell) would have had us there.
Aye cos supporting England when you’re actually Scottish makes you staunch as %^*&. Add Northern Ireland and you hit the jackpot.These will be the same guys who’ll be ever so staunchly pulling their plonker to any England victory n’all.
You need to explain that one mate.I did watch the Netherlands v Holland in about 2008 I think it was, was in with the Dutch, made the game much more enjoyable.
Great stadium
Pass marks for Souttar?
Right you are, Ray Charles.
I watched Netherlands beat Scotland in AmsterdamYou need to explain that one mate.
At least Ken Barlow can scoreWhatever
I'm sure you have never watched Scotland play Holland.. Maybe you watched them play The Netherlands.
Why are you kicking about a Scotland thread then?I just love this.
You love Scotland that much it appears you live in another country.
Where you are lucky is that you are inured to reality in this hole.
Growing up, Rangers fans made up the majority of the Scottish support.
How any Rangers fan could go and watch this mob after what was done to us by the authorities in 2012, is beyond me.
As for the selectively deaf, sectarian manager? A little lying rat of a human being. I don't want any Rangers player, playing for him.
I would't watch that lot if they played in my back garden. Not that they would be let in.
I agree, pretty pointless and a wasted opportunity, completely.Why bother playing the Netherlands then? Everything since qualification should be geared to getting it right when the tournament starts.
The game seems like a wasted opportunity.
Not supporting your country because you dinnae like the manager is pretty childish tbh.In this scenario my only concern would be the increased risk of injuries to Rangers player
Particularly if Clarke was still the manager
He deist say he disliked the managerNot supporting your country because you dinnae like the manager is pretty childish tbh.
Particularly if clarke was the manager indicates no support for the side because of the manager.He deist say he disliked the manager
He said that he would be concerned if further injuries for to the manager.
Which historically has been the case
Silly meYou need to explain that one mate.
I must admit, you’re right. I’d want them to get pumped by fewer goals.See all the guys saying they don’t watch or have any love for Scotland I have a hypothetical question. If I’m five years time the Scotland starting 11 had 8 or 9 rangers players would you watch or still hope they get beat or couldn’t care etc? I’m just interested I think their tune would quickly change
Wear a Rangers top to a Northern Ireland game and you’d be welcomed.Aye cos supporting England when you’re actually Scottish makes you staunch as %^*&. Add Northern Ireland and you hit the jackpot.
Nah he said th at about the injuriesParticularly if clarke was the manager indicates no support for the side because of the manager.
I don’t support and international side, but it is nice to see England get to the later stages of the tournaments, they are a good sideAye cos supporting England when you’re actually Scottish makes you staunch as %^*&. Add Northern Ireland and you hit the jackpot.
Virtually all teams get dressed up for football games these days. The Dutch get dressed up in orange with stupid hats, the French walk around with a stupid cock(of bird variety) on their heads. Even in darts, people get dressed up as all kind of things, so why is it stupid for Scottish people to get dressed up in an outfit that is known worldwide as Scottish. Even as Rangers supporters, people get dressed up in blue tops, scarfs and hats. People don't realise that by walking away, they are giving the detractors exactly what they want.In the 70s I used to travel for hours by public transport to see Rangers and Scotland.
Had some great times at Scotland games with mates, some of whom supported other clubs so got a chance to have some good fitba days out with them. Did the old Home Internationals including Wembley, and Hampden matches for European and World Cup qualifiers. Back then the attire was just a random tartan scarf instead of my Rangers scarf and Rangers fans made up a great percentage of the crowd.
Look at the Tartan Army now though : grown men dressed up like complete fannies, standing around with their "oh look at me, I'm in "the famous tartan army. Don't you just love me?" glaikit expressions.
And I get that pros will usually want to play for their country, and good luck to them, but it's frustrating when we're chasing down trophies and lose strategic players injured in a midweek friendly in some shithole stadium I've never heard of.
And I won't get into the number of Rangers players who've been abused by bellends in kilts whenever they need a scapegoat. A treatment, incidentally, that no other club's players seem to have had to endure.
So, as you said mate, let them go ahead and fill their boots, but it's not for me.
Same here in fact I’ll be in beside those I have more in common with nowadays on Tuesday night.Weird is it? So everyone on a mentally challenged thread with hate for them is weird? I used to love following the national team but not anymore due to the fans being Rangers haters.
Fair enough if that's what you took from the post.Nah he said th at about the injuries
He had history of running Jack into the ground
Staunch points for you m8.Same here in fact I’ll be in beside those I have more in common with nowadays on Tuesday night.
