So Walter Smith seems got the job of Scotland Manager. He nae man for the job but for me only way is gie him a chance and see how far Scotland get!!...

I would have thought this would have suited the SFA. It's only a thought but. Is the connection "Walter Smith and Archie Knox" too much for the diehard Celtic fan to follow/cheer/praise.......? Remember when Scotland were playing the games at Parkhead many Rangers fans refused to attend and viceversa. It's wrong for many reasons, but the SFA will try their hardest to get Tommy Burns in there somewhere.
Walter Smith hae asked Tommy Burns tae be his assistant if the Celtic youth coach can persuade the Parkhead club tae let him continued involvement with the Scotland national team.
Cant say I'm keen on Walter Smith.. but hey everyone deserves a chance.
One thing I would say for him is he's keen on looking at guys who turned their back on the SFA such as David Weir and Drunken Duncan..
What does everyone think of that???????
Used to be of the opinion 'if they've turned his back on scotland, let scotland turn their back on them'
Would definitely welcome back messrs Weir and Ferguson. No-one really knows what happened in the past and I'm sure most agree that David Taylor and the rest of the board are T0ssers anyway.
Duncan Ferguson.. come on down!

Don't think Drunken will be back. SFA hung him out to dry back then and as his grief is with the association, think its all over. Weir fell out with Vogts so might be persuaded.

One thing good about old Walter Smith that he dinnae see the point of playing too many friendlies because of too many first-choice players were nae available for Scotland national team.
He's no daft. Until the team is better, every friendly played and lost would increase the pressure. By taking two years to play 4 friendlies instead of a year, he gives himself a bit of breathing space to try and come up with a team.
