Well this is a massive game tomorrow night v opposition who Scotland can definitely beat at Hampden Park! But will we do it? It looks like there will be a massive turn out by Scottish fans for a final group game that is a "cup final" esp after years of getting zilch from so many Euro and FIFA international quali tourneys. I was gonna say, "Lets play the same group of players who have suddenly lifted morale and momentum in a team that McLeish was IMO 'forced to change' due to injury call offs". However, there appears to be some new injuries that Ecky is not disclosing!! I'm just wondering how crucial this latest spate of injuries will be to our chances v an Israeli international team that will not be there to "make up the numbers" on the pitch! They have something to play for! But so do we and we must "go for it" and play with no fear - grab the chance at home in front of a huge, partisan Scottish crowd. Can Ecky "choose wisely" but, more importantly, can he motivate and press these players for a top performance and win this crucial match? We shall see if "interest" can be maintained or we end up "in a footie mire" again and reflecting on "what might have been"!
