For what it's worth this is what Scotland fans believe will be their fixtures
Scotland v Ukraine (play off) - 01/06

Wales v Ukraine/Scotland- 05/06

Scotland v Ukraine (NL) - 08/06

Ireland v Scotland - 11/06

Armenia v Scotland- 14/06

Scotland v Ireland - 22/09

Ukraine v Scotland(NL) - 25/09

Scotland v Armenia - 28/09

Can't see the Scottish FA agreeing to that. 5 competitive games in 2 weeks at the end of the season? Seems way too much. 


There was talk last week of the WC playoff doubling up as the NL fixture too, which would make sense for both sides to lessen the load on players.
There was yeah. Doesn't appear to be a runner anymore. SFA stood to lose £2 million in gate revenue appearently

Confirmed that we are playing Ukraine twice in June, as well as Armenia and Scotland.

Will be great to have Ukraine in Dublin.....we'll give them a warm welcome.

Armenia away on the 4th now and Ukraine at home on the 8th


Other games unchanged I think

Scotland away moved by 24hrs.

Don't understand the logic in moving the Armenia away game.

There was plenty of other ways around it

Frees Ukraine up for World Cup play off on 5th June if needed.

Probably somewhere in Poland for the Ukraine game.

Having the two home games back to back probably makes the fixture list a bit better for us than it was before.

For some reason the Ireland page on Wikipedia has us playing Malaysia in a Friendly on May 27th but I presume that's nonsense.

They'd have been free anyway if they lost, if they won they'd be playing, wouldn't really have impacted us at all. Armenia were due in Scotland on the 4th. Could have sent them to Dublin and done a double header freeing up a September date for us to play Ukraine

You'd wonder what kind of form Scotland and Ukraine will be in for these games in June. At least one of them - and possibly both of them - will have just missed out on qualifying for the World Cup. Might not be too up for a Nations League game just after the playoffs.

Yeah That's bollox I'd say. Half way around the world 8 days before the Armenia  game. Unless it's a sort of B Squad

Somewhere like Krakow I'd imagine for the Ukraine game.

Much better schedule for us having the double header at home. The travel between games would have been a nightmare for the players with such short turn arounds.

Like the look of the fixtures now, hopefully pick up three points at home to a dis-interested Scotland after they're knocked out of the play offs and then play Ukraine who will be resting players after their big win.

Poland would be the most likely I'd say. Perhaps Krakow. Poland playing in Warsaw the night before

Wont be Krakow, stadiums for Wisla & Crakowia aren't up to standard - maybe Wroclaw or Poznan or Gdansk
