World Cup playoffs draw

[Rjk]

Scotland are playing better than they have for a generation. I would expect Scotland to beat Wales if we beat Ukraine.
You will need a fit and firing Gareth Bale to put that in doubt .

against any of the 3 teams we would probably need one or both of Bale and Ramsey to be playing well in order for us to win.
as has largely been the case for the last several years.

Agreed , but Scotland have been so poor for so long I wouldn't have given them a chance coming here.
They look like a well organised unit now that wont be push over for anyone.
They will still disappoint .
We are Scotland , its our birth right

yeah they definitely look a different prospect now than a couple of years ago. you can't blame us for being pleased though when it could have been Italy or Portugal away

You'd think all 4 teams in our group will be quite happy with that draw when Spain and Italy were options.

The only thing in our favour is two home games really, other than that I think it's very tight. Very glad we won't have to play Scotland in Scotland the way they've been playing recently.

Agreed .
I think all 4 teams have won a watch in our little group.
No reason any one from the 4 cant go through. Well maybe Austria

Cmon Bob . You are better than that . You have surprised me with your posts on this previously.

Sorry Jimmy, but I think the penalty kick has done Scotland lots of favours down the years, not just against Wales.
