Idiotic foul...sunday league level
It is the sort of foul he has got away with for years in the Scottish league.

There is an obsession with hard tackles in the country and physique over skill. If they ever want to improve football nationally they need to referee to the same standard as in Europe and focus on skill. The result is what you see today but they will never change.

Scotland have been atrocious and not even tried to play. Just get as many bodies as deep as possible and as narrow as possible.

Fucking hell.

Germany look incredible, but even so we're giving possession up FAR too easy. We're short a good CF to the extent I think we may as well stick McGinn up there to chase CBs and stick Gilmour in the middle.

Even our objectively great players (Robertson, Tierney, Mcgregor) aren't doing well.

Tough to watch.

And this makes no sense when there's nowhere for possession to go once it's won back.

:agree:

Crazy not to start Gilmour he's the pretty much the only one capable of keeping the ball in the middle.
