[Football] Wales v Scotland

[Eeyore]

as a Scot I obviously want Scotland to qualify but having supported Scotland since the mid 90's I'm well accustomed to noble failure. So I'm expecting a BRAVE 1-0 defeat to Ukraine

At least Scotland how won it more recently than England. I didn't bother even watching the 1978 finals because I was told you'd win it so easily.

(Some joker has altered the Wiki entry to say you got knocked out the first round)

8 years before I was born unfortunately but Scotland don't do overconfidence very well

Really need to join the Irish on the plucky underdogs table

In fairness, Scotland had possibly the strongest finals squad to ever leave our shores. They actually had a chance. But it all went belly up very quickly until the Netherlands match where they remembered they were there to play football.

Think chances are good that Scotland will be knocked out.

My playoff predictions

Wales vs Austria
Scotland vs Ukraine

Wales vs Ukraine

Russia vs Poland
Sweden vs Czech Republic

Czech Republic vs Poland

Portugal vs Turkey
Italy vs North Macedonia

Italy vs Portugal

Wales, Czech Republic and Italy going to the WC. A little bit sad for Sweden (and Zlatan), think we would have stomped Russia or Poland but the Czechs are good.

I dunno. I've not seen anything of Ukraine apart from this summers Euros and based off of that I think Scotland have a decent chance. They are tremendously good at ****ing up when they shouldn't though so even if they do beat Ukraine I imagine they'll batter Wales or Austria and then concede a comical 90th minute winner.

I also think your game against Czech Republic will be pretty close but I'll admit I know a heck of a lot less about Sweden than you do!

I live in Wales. Believe me, the Welsh hate the English at all sports.

Come on the Jocks!

Well cock it up somehow - we always do. Who ‘hates’ England the most reminds me of Leeds vs Liverpool - the best chant “we hate Man Utd more than you do”. At least in Scotland we didn’t go burning your holiday homes.

I am not bothered which, but the Scottish made Whisky and have the Highlands, two things I am forever indebted to them for having enjoyed the pleasure of.

So that tips the balance somewhat!

Voted don't care, not that I don't, just think it would be cruel on either really. Although hopefully it would be a good match
