Steve Clarke is Scotland best ever boss and could lead nation to Euro 2024 FINAL as Georgia are garrotted – Hotline

Scotland's Hampden history makers took another giant step towards Germany 2024 with a win over Georgia in monsoon hit Mount Florida. But for some Hotline callers the flooded playing surface which forced the game to be temporarily suspended should never have been given the green light to restart.

Stephen Johnstone, Ardentinny, said: "Scotland weathered the storm on a Ahamden pitch to sink Georgia to sit top in their group of death in the European qualifiers. The fans can look out their passports and book their tickets to Germany and you would not bet against them reaching the Final. Steve Clarke, his players and his backroom staff have made history by winning four games on a trot from the start of a campaign and merit huge congratulations."

Frank Cameron, Shotts, said: "It was brilliant again from Scotland and the win over Georgia may have been played out in farcical conditions but we are now all but through the group and can look forward to being at the finals in Germany." Neil Renton, Edinburgh, said: "Clarke must go down as one of the best Scotland managers ever. What he’s managed to get from the squad he has is unreal. Not only are they a footballing force but they appear to be a dab hand at water polo."
