We do seem to get Poland a lot. There's been a few draws where Poland and Scotland have been in the same pot so couldn't draw each other.
Ditto Israel for us. Next month's game against them will be the 5th in 13 months, and 7th in the last 3 years.Ireland constantly playing Denmark became a meme. We regretted complaining about the interminable run of unwatchable 0-0/1-1 draws against them when they beat us 6-1 in Ireland in a World Cup qualifying playoff second leg.
Now it feels like we play Serbia every time. Unfortunately they've got much better.
And it means a totally different thing to those of us old enough to remember 1973. Younger folks have no reason not to expect a reasonably comfortable passage to the WC or Euros.We do seem to get Poland a lot.
Please reassure me that the goalie wasn't Ilan Meslier.Ever had a 1-1 draw in FM where you've outshot your opponents 30-1 and their goal comes from an inexplicable bit of goalkeeping?
What’s the general consensus on Postecoglu at Celtic? Obviously off to a bad start in the CL but it’s a potentially important development for Aus football if he goes decently.
Has a reasonable record where he’s coached before.My understanding is he may not have a great squad to work with, but I don’t follow the Scottish league very closely.
pretty tragic
