Who wants Scotland to win?

There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Great effort, sadly another victim falls to the rigged qualifiers. Say hello to another boring tournament.

But a potentially 'easier' draw for the World Cup Qualifying - every cloud and all that.

At least, that's how I'm trying to look at it but I'm devastated about tonight's result and will be having a good few Bell's before the morning comes.

Hope is knowing that football fans, like the scarves we wear, are made to be lifted up.

Because our greatest glory consists not in falling, but in rising every time we fall. Confucius said that. Or was it Russell Anderson?

Like Hampdens fearsome roar, hope arouses a passion for the possible. It helps us achieve the unthinkable - Scotland 1 France 0

We can live 40 days without food, 3 days without water and 8 minutes without air. We can live 4 days in the Ukraine without changing our replica shirts. But we cannot live 1 second without hope.

Hope is not caring if we lose every game, as long as we top the group.

Hope is calculating that we only need 6 points from our last two games, provided the Faroes hold Italy and Ukraine beat France by 2 clear goals.

And hope is pricing flights from Glasgow to Zurich "just in case."

But most of all, hope is like a path in the country - there never was a path but when many of us walk the same ground, the path comes into exsistance.

This is the path we follow.

Wherever it takes us, whatever it takes us.


BRING IT ON....PROUD TO BE SCOTTISH

Edit+ The mighty hibees are doing good too!
awwww man :(
