Awesome result for the Scots, especially with Norway dropping points in Georgia. still a way to go, but having 6 points from 2 games and a 5 point lead over 3rd place is a cracking start.

As an Irishman I can only envy you. Scotland has the best National Anthem in the world.

Mind you, as an adopted Taffy the Welsh one ain't too shabby either.

You reckon? I'd go with La Marseillaise personally. Or maybe Il Canto degli Italia.

But when they go a capella at Murrayfield and turn the lights off at the rugby, not much can beat that.

Potter - please just take a long walk away from Stamford Bridge...

What possessed him to finish the game with two wing backs as centre backs with two decent centre backs on the bench?

His tactics are a complete enigma to me.
 
This had the hair on the back of my neck standing on end. Excellent job guys. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Makes a very pleasant change to hear a passionate crowd sing their national anthem without the ‘help’ of a nobody wannabe ‘celebrity’ who sounds like the only singing they’ve ever done was in the shower.

For a team like Chelsea your league position doesn't look good.Why you got rid of Tuchel heaven knows?
Still at least your not in a relegation battle.:whistle:

It was a bad move to get rid of Tuchel imo. A top manager, a slight step down from Pep & Klopp but nearly there.

Bizarrely replaced by a doe-eyed sap who would struggle managing a kids sunday league team.

Can't even listen to his pressers any more - the man has no fire in his belly and his oh-so-humble respect the opposition schtick is beyond painful to watch.

Take this millenium's EPL most trophies winning team and put a mid-table (probably being over genorous) manager in charge and, unsurprisingly you get mid-table mediocrity.

A dumb appointment of a dumb manager.

Come on ? I know you are a Chelsea supporter, but does that qualify you for 'spitting out' the most venomous unsupported bile I have heard in a while.
I agree it is 'not working' for Potter at Chelsea, you obviously think that is all Potter's fault as opposed to his 'superstar players' and the myriad of new faces foisted on his team. Potter won 3 promotions and a cup while managing in Sweden. He did sufficiently well at Swansea for Brighton to take him. In 3 years at Brighton he transformed the club into a top 10 club on relatively modest gates. How does that stand with your comments ? Take your blinkers off please.

Well, Brendon Rogers has gone, too little too late for this Foxes supporter. He had 'lost' the dressing room towards the end of last season and they stuck with him, probably due to his 'pay off' cost ? That pay off cost may seem like 'beer money' now if they have left it to late to survive.
With 2 top 5 finishes plus a 1st ever FA Cup he has been great for Leicester. However I believe every manager (with rare exceptions) has a 'sell buy' date. The point where they can no longer motiivate players for many differing reasons. Maybe even Jurgen Klopp is approaching/reached his ? With 10 games to save their Premier league status can Leicester City get a new manager in quickly enough to get them playing to their potential ? Any suggestions for the next Boss ? please don't say Sam Allardyce. :eek:
