It’s not a contradiction to thank Steve Clarke for guiding Scotland to 3 successive major tournaments while at the same time viewing this as the right decision. A new impulse needed.
So that’s Scotland officially out the World Cup
• McGinn deflected shot to get ONLY goal of the tournament
• Haiti had more shots than Scotland in the game
• Morocco game, Hanley steps out a year late and gifts them a goal after 70 SECONDS
•Scotland have ZERO shots on target vs Morocco
• Brazil were gifted their 3 goals. They didn’t even need to work hard to score
Scotland ranked number 42 and didn’t qualify for the knockouts
Yet-
Paraguay 41st
DR Congo 46th
South Africa 60th
Bosnia 64th
Cape Verde 67th
Ghana 73rd
All qualified or more than likely to go through
Cape Verde 67th in the world and went there with no fear and managed to draw with Spain (2nd) Uruguay (16th) and Saudi Arabia (61st). All higher ranked yet nobody could beat them
Scotlands first World Cup in years and they go out with a whimper because they have a manager that was too scare to make the most of the World Cup and go try win games and score goals
Listen To Her Heart Felt Thank You

This whole joyous spectacle was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen in person, some 25 minutes from this perch of crowd as far as the eye could see up Grand.
I need our newfound Scot pals and all members of @TartanArmyGroup to make a promise: you’ll keep posting about the shenanigans you’re getting up to at home. You’ve made millions of new friends. Let’s keep up the connections. ✌🏻🏴🇺🇸
Home time. The USA have been fantastic hosts! We’ve loved the welcome from every city and state we’ve been in 🇺🇸
If you want to hate the world, watch the news. If you want to love the world, travel it. 🌎❤️🏴✈️🇺🇸 #scotland#fifaworldcup
Best friendly fans in the world by a country mile and a whole lot more have seen it this World Cup. Don’t be sad that it’s over be happy that it happened 🇺🇸 🏴
By far my favourite Scotland vs Brazil story is the referee saying “Good luck, may the best team win” to both captains before the game in 1982 and Graeme Souness replying “I fucking hope not”
