Still, if you cannae beat Israel at a sold-out Hampden and not get the better of Norway or Serbia during 90 mins then we are saving ourselves the embarrassment of the Euros - we will get a hummer of a group due to the seedings. Could end up - England, France, Portugal, Scotland! That is a worst case scenario ; but it'll be a tough tournament for us no matter.
It will be very Scottish to hammer Israel 3-0 and put in a great performance ; everyone hyper and high as they can be following the national team and top it up by going to Belgrade and going 1-0 before losing 2 late goals and crashing out 2-1. Another wee sickner will be that team who gets the spot in C : Israel, Norway, Scotland, Serbia will play their 'home' games at Hampden in the group ; so we could well be papped out by Norway/Serbia in the final and they'll take our place in our own home city at the Euros.
Still, that's the cards ; let's see if we can give it a go. Away to Serbia and Norway will be mega tough. Hoping lots of knocks, red cards and players out for any potential final ; but for there to be a final we need to beat Israel. Clarke now has 3 months to come up with a plan to hopefully get us to the Euros. I'm not confident, but Mon Scotland, change the fécking script for once and do this!
Playoffs in full
Bulgaria - Hungary
Iceland - Romania
Two winners meet in Sofia or Budapest. So much for UEFA eh, for all the racist language from Bulgaria and fines etc ; they now potentially have two home ties to get to the Euros!
Slovakia - Ireland
Bosnia - NI
If both the Irelands' get through ; it will be some match in the final as Belfast will host the final!
Georgia - Belarus
North Macedonia - Kosovo
Played in Georgia or Belarus. As great as Kosovo have been I fear North Macedonia will be too much ; Gerogia - North Macedonia should be a belting final. I'd expect Georgia to get there!
