Scotland faced a disappointing 3-1 defeat against Iceland, causing outrage among fans who feel head coach Steve Clarke is no longer effective. Criticism highlighted players' underachievement and the need for fresh tactics or personnel. Although debutant goalkeeper Cieran Slicker received scrutiny for errors, many believe that the entire team lacked ambition and failed to protect him. Fans expressed a desire for younger talent and noted that the current squad appears to be reaching the end of their cycle, with World Cup qualification now at risk.
Alan: An absolute shocker of a performance against Iceland, with the horrific goalkeeping situation coming to the fore. Only George Hirst came close to pass marks. World Cup qualification hopes look slim at best and Clarke's future surely has to be in doubt. The team look to be lacking any ambition and inspiration.
Franny: That is as bad a performance as I have witnessed in six decades as a Scotland fan. We have been woeful recently. Creatively barren and boring. Time for a new coaching team with fresh ideas? Definitely.
