Not good, hope those who were injured are all OK.

RIP to the Gers fan who lost his life today on the supporters bus to Ibrox. 39 is no age

[Driver101]

Very sad.

RIP.

Is this where we moan about Scotland games? I would've had more fun and value for money shoving 40 pound coins up my ahole tonight. And I wouldn't have had to fork out and queue for a variety of trains.

[Driver101]

All the games were utterly dire today. The players aren't up for it and neither are the fans.

No chance of qualifying when drawing at home to Lithuania. There only appeared to be one winner at the start of the second half. It don't work out that way.

I'm just utterly sick fed up of international weekends. At least Falkirk's game was moved to the Friday to see the game, but its always the same.

Beat some ste, press thinks we have a chance, so does the manager and team, bang a horrendous performance and result, play out of our skins against the group favourites loosing by a narrow margin, repeat.

I'm done, I just don't care anymore. I cannot stand listening to hours of build up and post match analysis for that tripe.

[technodup]

I can't believe anyone is still interested in international football, particularly Scotland.

I literally couldn't give a fk if the tartan trannies win lose or draw.

They should take a leaf out of rugby's book.

Unless the injury is serious, play continues and trainer comes on to treat the player on the pitch.

That would soon get those Lithuanians up and running around again.

[BlackLabel]

And there goes another qualifying campaign.

[Driver101]

That was awful. It was the clearest free kick ever before Slovenia got their first goal.

It's a horrible feeling to already have little to play for. There's no chance of qualifying now.

[FN2TypeR]

Mercy.

[DocJock]

It was so bad that at one point I very nearly turned over to watch the England match!

They were just as bad again. England were lucky to get a draw out of that game.

[matchmaker]

Any chance of Ally MacLeod coming back from the grave?

[DavesFlaps]

I was expecting much more from this campaign.

fking spastics.

Joey Barton set to leave Rangers.

It is understood the club and Barton's representatives are discussing a severance package which could see the midfielder officially end an ill-fated spell in Scottish football.

The 34-year-old briefly returned to Rangers' training ground last Thursday after being suspended in September, but he has not been spotted since amid reports he has been signed off on medical grounds.

[Granfondo]

Barton has been signed off with a fear of confined spaces!

Being in Scot Browns pocket for the whole of the first old firm game didn't help!!!!

[Driver101]

Well that ended up embarrassing.



England were there for the taking. They aren't a good side at all. If we had taken our chances we'd have won. Really sloppy attacking, even worse defending and then totally surrendering.

I can't see GS surviving now.

Well the first half must have been different then, I only watched the second half and Scotland were well and truly battered.

No offence intended. It's just that Sterling and co were a joy to watch.

You missed the chances Scotland should have scored. A few chances in the first half then two right at the start of the second. England got 2 goals from two chances and that was it.

I wouldn't say that. Scotland offered nothing, two lame attempts on goal and to be honest I don't think Hart actually had to make a save. England scored three good goals (not two) from three well worked attacks. There was never a point that Scotland looked like winning.
