Gordon strachans lost it totally - we lost because we're too small...

Scotlands main issue is apparently that they are too small. Second smallest only to Spain - who of course are a terrible team massively hindered by their lack of height

Exactly what I said earlier. Strachan is well known within the game for being a massive cunt - usually when he's in work but plays the knockabout fool that people seem to fall for when he's on his arse looking for a job

Real shame, on account of the bloke being a shite manager, full of shite, in charge of shite - shame it could not continue
As a bloke he is also a Class A cunt, no mistake. His antics when living in Leamington and recounted directly from work colleagues who lived there and either knew him or of him, support that assertion
Fuck 'em all, just waiting for that Ewok bitch to confer blame upon us English
However, I am honest and even handed in my appraisal - the little ginger cunt could could a ball, fair play for that

Just talking on 5Live about candidates & have mentioned Moyes, Malky McKay, Paul Lambert , BIG SAM or Michael O’Neill if N Ireland go out in the playoffs
Craig Brown & Ally McCoist talking about how the current players are a bit shit. With Charlie Adam listening quietly in the background. Ha ha

'Who is lined up to do better with these players?'
David Moyes, apparently.

Robert Snodgrass is one of his leading players
To get where they did and be within a minute of beating England is a decent achievement. Who is lined up to do better with these players?

Strachan handed his P45. Sullivan adds his name to the long list he is compiling to replace the incompetent Bilic.

i think this is a coded reference to the fact that Scotland (unlike england, france, holland, etc) dont have a huge pool of black players , a disproportionate number being big, physically strong and fast. He has spoken about this before

You could say as far as football goes Scotland have had an independence referendum.

All in all I think he has done a decent job with the selection of players he has.
I think a big issue during his tenure is that all the other home nations are doing better than Scotland.
It must of been a huge kick in the nuts seeing England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Republic all playing in the Euros last summer and at least 3 of those 4 could be playing at the World Cup next summer.

I like Strachan a great little player he was, i think as most have said he did well with Scotland who with respect have not got much quality to choose from these day's. Scotland always back in the 70's 80's and even 90's produced some world class midfielders and defenders the last 10 years have been pretty dour for them though.
With respect Strachan talking about height is not absolute pish the worse the skill level in the team the more the team needs to rely on physicality.

Only Mel Gibson could do a better job of raising them up for games tbh.

Done a good job I like the bloke as he is very tongue in cheek with some of his comments.
I take this one to be of the same ilk

I like.Strachan, never takes himself too seriously, obviously this was just typical of his normal wind up bollocks and spouted at a press conference after his country had just been eliminated hardly proves that he has lost it.
Did a decent job to find 22 players that weren't junkies, alkies and fried mars bar eaters and take them as far as he did.
