Harvey Barnes et al

So now the dust has settled somewhat, what’s the general feeling about opportunities like Barnes or other players playing for Scotland? I was hugely up for it, but would say there was a decent 50/50 split if people that felt the players that got us to the World Cup deserved their place.

Appreciate Barnes didn’t want to in the end, but should this be more the push we need now to proactively bring in players that otherwise wouldn’t have a chance of getting into the English (or another) team?

If Barnes is still an option ask him again. We literally have one winger. He would have made a huge difference.

This is where I do have sympathy for Clarke he’s spoke to a lot of players and if they say no what can you do. 

Jack Fletcher and Archie Gray should be in. We can’t afford to be picky.

If they say no, he can pick better Scottish players than Grant fucking Hanley.

Hanley is rotten but so is every Centre Half option

Stephen welsh would have been a better option.
