For me Scottish football was always on the way down but it died a few years ago when things went pear shaped for rangers. Especially at club level
Last night the score might not have reflected the match but the gulf in quality and fitness between the teams was clear
When England broke they had a certain finesse, Scotland created chances but they scrambled their way through
I'm younger than g man and irn bru (not being cheeky.....well maybe a wee bit lol) so I didn't witness the good old days of Joe Jordan etc. But when I have seen Scottish teams do well in Europe it's been mainly with foreign players
I think we will be minnows for a good while yet, we always get optimistic when qualifying groups are drawn but we always drop points against smaller teams. This campaign was no different
