We don't want another embarrasing scorline but it is a bit of a pointless exercise with no permanent manager in place. I suppose getting the boys together as often as possible is a good thing, would like to have seen Winters in the squad.
I won't be watching it anyway, got a wee five a side game planned.
so, in short, I rather play a wee game of 5 a side than watch Scotland v Sweden :D

I can’t believe I’m going to say this but I feel sorry for Burns. His reputation has been destroyed by Berti! Incidentally I think Berti has been at the drugs as he is trying to claim he did a brilliant job and that we will see the results in 4 years!

No Larsson, Ljungberg or Ibrahimovic for Sweden! This might keep the score respectable! ;)

Scotland should really focus on producing excellent players, not just excellent managers :p
Otherwise, we would've borrowed you Winters, but he's got a little groin
problem. Miller on the other hand, is really fired up. He scored the only goal in
the 1-0 vic over Halmstad in the Royal League tonight, and would probably
be a strong asset for you.

Is he still fat? Is his temprement the same? If so, he is NOT what Scotland needs.

It’s hard to tell but I doubt it!
BTW, our best striker (Thompson) is out, Scott Severin called-up. Has anything actually changed since Bert left!!! :mad:

There is no way Thompson is our best striker! He's a waste of space IMO. Miller, McFadden, Dickov and Crawford are all better.

Lookit!
He WAS fat when he came to us, but he's lost weight and gained speed :)

Okay but our best striker is out now – Dickov ;)
Naysmith and Cameron also out, Bazza, Holt and Gray “doubtful”.

We don’t seem to care either judging by the amount of players who have called off. I’m not even going to bother watching it. Seems like a waste of time.

Um, what reputation?
I can't believe that I actually bought tickets for tonight's game. I'm already regretting it. This must be a first, regretting an action before knowing the outcome.

Sweden is up 1-0 after 31 minutes because of a goal by Allback in the 27th...
