John McGovern was captain of the European Cup winning side, wasn’t he? I remember having a devil of a job getting his sticker for a Panini album.
Did he ever play for Scotland? I can’t remember him having a game, but then the national team was spoilt for choice then.
No
Do you feel changing the league format had an adverse effect on scottish football?
As in teams no longer field as many young players through fear of relegation from the top division
The change was 10 years previous to Souness taking charge, so don’t think that was the issue
The Belgian Sebastien Pocognoli was appointed as new manager of Scotland national team. For the first time in 22 years recieves Scotland a foreign manager.
Haven’t laughed this much since granny caught her tit in the mangle.
He said that they have a million miles to go. Actually, Linz to Glasgow is around 1,000 miles or, to put it another way, 500 miles and then 500 more: a double Proclaimer.
Considering how much of a cunt he was to Hearts at the end of last season it’s not actually that disheartening to see.
Rangers fully out of Europe, Celtic out of the CL and hopefully following their equally dislikeable rivals all the way out too.
Life is good
messaged my Gers supporting mate a simple message…
“Oh dear”
his response was…
“Scotland and Scottish football are a joke
13 plus years of the SNP and where are we?”
i responded…
“I blame the SFA and the football clubs”
his response…
"what about the Nation? 13 years?
wheres the growth?
just more taxation ,
that socialism"
ehhhhhh, okkkkkkkkkkkk…
do you follow any Scottish teams or have a soft spot for any?
I followed my grandads team, Dundee.
Watched them home and away until I started playing amateur football on Saturdays
Does that account for the Liverpool connection, since Dundee’s most successful spell was with Bill Shankly’s brother in charge?
No.
Married a scouser, lived in Liverpool, son was born in Liverpool
I’m dreading my lad growing up to support either of the old firm,
Hopefully i can steer him towards Motherwell, EK or Airdrie (if desperate)
My missus bought my lad an England top when he was about 5.
He put it on and asked me if i liked it.
I said its fine son, but if you set one foot outside the front door with it on you’ll be packing your bags.
Has he thanked you yet? 
I tried to steer my kids away from them altogether. I think the fact I supported Liverpool helped, and if I did go to a match it would most likely be Stenhousemuir, which our local school had a lot of ties to.
As it is, two of the kids aren’t that bothered about football, and the one that is lives in Bremen now and follows Werder.
As ever, it isn’t the football that’s the problem, but the sectarian bollocks that goes with it.
Gibraltar has as many teams in European footie as Scotland.
