It’s been a great week to be a Scotland supporter after Steve Clarke’s side gained promotion to the Nations League’s top tier.
The 0-0 draw against Ukraine in Krakow secured promotion to the top tier of the Nations League, secured a Euro 2024 playoff spot and propelled us into the second seed spot for the qualifying group draw next month. On the back of victories over the Ukrainians and Ireland at hampden, it's been some week for the national team ahead of the domestic action resuming this weekend.
But not everyone shared the Tartan Army’s excitement, with Alan Flett saying: “I honestly can’t believe how blinkered Scotland fans are! Our progress is not down to Steve Clarke and his players, it’s because of UEFA keeps shifting the goalposts in an attempt to ensure that all the big guns qualify for the tournaments. They don’t want a World Cup without the likes of Italy and Germany. It also means that the so called smaller nations will have a better chance of playing in major finals but that’s the downside of the UEFA plan.
