yeah get to play in 2 of the most historic stadiums in the world

East Stirling managed to blow their 100% start to the season with a 4-1 home defeat to lowly Peterhead But stay top on goal difference.

At least Hamilton won again

can't be many 100% records left in scotland

Another piss poor show from Scotland. Should be a sell out at the Macedonia game

In fairness mate we were up against a world class Belgium side, I still think we can take a lot of positives out of the game. Strachan has vastly improved the side. I'm going to be bold and predict that Scotland will qualify for the European Championships in 2016 but knowing us we'll probably have to do it the hard way through the play off's as it's destined that unlike our English counterparts we'll get drawn in a bastard of a qualifying group

Scotland will always be drawn in "a bastard of a qualifying group " ,because they are a pool 3 team in the seedings .Until they qualify for a major tournament this will always be the case .

Final result from Skopje ended Macedonia 1 - Scotland 2

A brilliant performance and result that has lifted us off the bottom of the Group A. Qualification for the World Cup has long past so it's really just been about getting some self respect and pride back to the nation.

A fantastic solo opening goal scored by Ikechi Anya on 59 minutes was followed up by a wonder free kick by Shaun Maloney on 88 minutes. Scotland could have so easily crumbled when Jovan Kostovsk leveled the scores at 1-1 on 82 minutes but no we kept our shape and self belief and went on to claim victory.

If only we had Gordon Strachan at the start of the campaign we might have just been in with a chance for the finals. So far Strachan has had a really good track record as he has firmly put his mark on the job with the future now looking a lot more brighter now

Well at least it cannot be drawn like this
Euro 2016 Group A -
Spain
Italy
France
Holland
Belgium
Scotland

Now that really would be a bugger of a group .

Yay for Scotland. Better than Northern Ireland, at any rate
