"That was a game that was set up for us to slip on a banana skin" said Liechtenstein coach Hans-Peter Zaugg. :D


BTW - In 2009, the estimated population of Liechtenstien was 35,789.

Last night at Hampden Park the attendance was 37,050.
:D
But it's quality not quantity that counts. Scotland's GDP per capita is $39,690, while Liechtenstein is $91,697 Liechensteiner's may be few but they live well.

Almost comparable to a pair of draws with Macedonia at home in 2002 and 2006 you might say :wink:

But I'm not here to argue as to which side has the worst performance award. Levein over-celebrated cos of the circumstances in which his job had been saved, and the way we'd gotten revenge for some red-card tackling and timewasting. Not to mention a referee who shown 2 yellows to their man and forgot to send him off. It required a litany of nonsense by him, and not just a flat performance to provide that scoreline.


Anyway, setting myself up for a fall here, but I think he'll take us to the playoffs. The Czech Rep game will tell a better story.
