Any coach with a track record of putting out a coherent, positive team would be a start?

Clarke's team talk irrespective of who we are playing. #SCOBEL

Clarke's caution means we will never see the best from a decent squad. Leaving Gilmour out, the one player who can provide a level of rhythm and control should be illegal. A more clinical team would have murdered us before we started scoring Sunday league goals πŸ˜‚ #SCOGRE

2 Sunday league goals and Buster Keaton in the Greek goal for the last one. Clarke's a manager who drains the potential of the team before they start, and leaves the player who might give us some control on the bench. Robbery, I'll take it but god knows where it goes with this leadership.

#DenSco the Greeks must be terrified after watching this pair.

Probably true. 0-0 Clarke's a hero πŸ˜‚

I'll throw in Dykes??? (Christie is a fine player when he's played in the right position, something that Clarke has never done)

Bowie for Dykes, Doak for Dykes, You or me on for Dykes!

Putting the young lads in with them wouldn't be a bad idea. But he won't, and McTominey being played out of position at the moment. Still, holding them off and they don't look great.

Already talking about us not holding onto it in midfield. If only we had a cool calm ball player in the squad.......

Let's go again. Loved these international games.

My son Coll and I said Campbell would have made more sense than Youan and I don't think both of us thought we would ever say that. Lost all balance.

We should get better, some real talent out there, but god yes, gutting.

Levitt pulled out of the cross ball too. Chiawa needs to be on the pitch from the start alongside Levitt. We had total control of the game. Odd sub of Youan? Kudje on too late again.......god we should have won that.

I'm delighted you mentioned that for the good memories. Players still appear, but by chance rather than design, and are off as soon as they can for leagues to develop. Brugge have a balance of Belgian based and international, with a deep understanding of the game. Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Our game is broken. Brugge have a back line all from their academy, like most teams at this level. Apart from Scotland. Every team ignores its youth and it's development. Dundee Utd played in Europe without a single home grown player. It's killing us. And that's not to say this isn't hilarious.

Scottish football needs a reset. Club Brugge tonight have a back line all from their academy. Rangers have a back line from all over who seem to have never played football before. All our clubs, including my own Hibs, don't build from the youth in the ways that others do. And it's killing our game.

Handball madness pt 1,323. Hibs v L Warsaw. Legias first goal. One of the best examples of a law gone mad? It's tiring to talk about it but unless we keep pointing out the ludicrous place we find our game with this interpretation, nothing will change. As good/bad an example as I've seen.

A wonderful story for Katrin-Berger, and a brilliant save to take them to penalties. The French must be kicking themselves, simply ran out of ideas. #WEuros25

French ones have been V decent too. Goalie deserved to win that for them.

I can see Sweden giving Spain or France a good game. Not sure about England.

Their pace at the back is a worry. Decent passes behind seem a huge problem. A bit long ball when they need to use the quality they have better.

Incredibly brave Israelis. There's always a glimmer of hope that folk, and young folk in particular, the world over, will stand up for humanity.
