Other Nations League matches

1-1 half time. Our kilted kangaroo scored.

Lyndon Dykes came to football/soccer rather late. Had played a bit of rugby league and Aussie Rules too.

Played some kickabout stuff in Australia then came to QOTS where he impressed (and stole the stunning wife of one of his coaches !) moved to Livingston and scored a few goals last year including in a win against Celtic.

I'm not saying Dykes is a great player but we've needed a target man who can actually hold up the ball properly for a while now so he seems to be a good addition.

Think the Australian manager was quite disappointed to lose him. 

Born and raised in Queensland but his parents were Scottish immigrants from Dumfries so that's fair game.

Second half starting now. Come on Scotland !!!

The very first result

I must admit, the Czech's were by far the better team. 

They played very well, and good attacking football at that. A great save from David Marshall and the post stopped them getting a deserved equaliser late on.

They had a twelfth man tonight too in Kenny McLean who gave them the ball every bloody time he could 

Uncharacteristically we got a bit of luck tonight. Us getting two penalties in two games is mindblowing stuff !

However, I am a Scot and my team won so I am

Is it me or is the standard of football worldwide just becoming utterly sh*te?

In the early 90's it seemed every country had at least one world class player or maybe it jut seemed that way. A lot of countries had teams full of superstars.

I used to know loads of the players from international teams and they would be household names.  You could name the Dutch line up or the Italian line up etc.  I saw a bit of Holland and Italy tonight.  Turned it off.  Boring . Just no buzz anymore from it.   Only knew 3 of Italy's team and 3 or 4 of Holland's.    International football used to be so much more interesting.  Growing up with great games like Holland v England 1993 in Rotterdam etc and being served up this in comparison.  Ok the football might be more tiki taka esque but the players were miles better back then too.  Rijkaard, Gullit, Van Basten, Bergkamp, Baresi, Baggio, et al...

Bah humbug

That's a bit sick Dinny, can only be a couple of years old.
