    Couldnt understand why Oman were wasting time.
    7 points behind us. 2 games left, if they pushed for a winner it would be 5 points which would be a realistic opportunity for them given our fixtures.


    I think we are gonna go about it the hard way.
    Bring on 2026

    yep, my mistake - we're guaranteed at least third

    even two wins wouldn't guarantee second now thanks to this **** up

    the other third place looks relatively easy, probably UAE - but then again so did a depleted Oman and you saw how Arnie handled that (and China)

    it's not entirely Arnie's fault, the quality of our players is at it's lowest point since the 90s

    And a fair bit of blame should probably also be directed to head office

    New style of play, 5 defenders, 5 forwards kick it long, tackle, kick it long, tackle, kick it long.

    Could be an error with the source site.
    I’ve been perplexed by Stanny’s question, but have since found Irvine, Stemsness, Rogic before I stopped looking. So we have some mids

    Arnold has covid again. I feel sorry for the guy, but I'm starting to get a bit suspicious...🤣

    Will be nice to see a win but realistically let's prepare for the playoffs.

    Who are you picking to come off the top rail? Ryan might be OK, he is from the coast so should know how to fight dirty at least.
