skygod Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 (edited) Presumably being drafted in at the age of 30 in case Tierney, Robertson and Douglas are all ever unavailable at the same time! Yet Taylor is stuck with the U20s and O'Donnell doesn't get his expected call-up. And Jordan Archer who every time I see him on highlights shows has a 'mare. f**k Scotland! f**k McLeish!

Killie1970 Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 Couldn't believe it when SO'D was omitted. The guy has had a fantastic season and did enough to merit a call up. McLeish has said he's all for giving youngsters a chance but calls up Stevenson and Jonny Russell! Actually quite glad that no Killie boys are involved. They're used to dealing with a manager who knows what he's doing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pompey Repatriated Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 Even if he's not being called up as a leftback that's still nonsense as Taylor can play midfield. Picking him ahead of Taylor possibly even more nonsensical than omitting O'Donnell 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 My theory is McLeish is still using his scouting notes from the last time he was Scotland boss. Nobody in their right mind could’ve watched Lewis Stevenson’s last couple of performances and thought he deserved a call up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 Lewis Stevenson is a wee diver - so I suppose he has one of the key attributes for international football. McLeish is hopeless. He’ll steer Scotland safely away from the next couple of major tournaments while operating under a cloak of support from his mates in the media. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor is a mainstay of the team going to the Toulon Tournament so it seems fair enough to keep him in that group. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pompey Repatriated Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Good point. tbf I'd rather he played that than some silly friendly. No reason why Taylor can't be a backup to Robertson and Tierny in future 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpetfitter Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 (edited) Glad Taylor’s at Toulon - he’ll learn more there than off big Eck. SSC will have to decontaminate/unteach SOD when he returns. Edited May 20, 2018 by carpetfitter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skygod Posted May 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 And Jordan Archer who every time I see him on highlights shows has a 'mare. Told you so. An error-prone keeper who gets selected because he plays in the English Championship. Shows up the flawed selection policy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewWylie Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Who actually gives a flyer about the national team ? The selection process is a bloody disgrace and always has , players manager and board selection that is 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
