Really liked him as a player for us. Another one who left and never really hit the heights again

Thought it was Andrew Ridgeley.

[Patrick Bateman]

Well this is by far the best match so far. Shame it's so late.

Is there a full eleven of current and former Saints at the World Cup?

Seen so far Larin, Adams, Gunn any others?

[HnycS]

Guess Stewart is also in the Scotland squad if he comes on and scores in the last 15 minutes as Larin did, it will be a huge co-incident.

Haiti v Scotland is like watching 2 champship teams. Should be 2-1. I thought Scotland would walk this easily.

Stewart, Livramento, Mane, Van Dijk, Sugawara, Caleta-Car, Koeman, Poch

Nice, except with Gunn in goal would be lucky to get out the group stage, as will Scotland 😄.

So as long as Koeman and Poch can play mid, we have a team.

There are never any easy games at the World Cup. Considering our record in the World Cup (NZ / Costa Rica), a result is all that is required.

Great take from Che Adams for the goal.

Nervous 30 minutes I think

Are we counting academy prospects? Then Musiala 😁

Scotland scrape through and the commentators sound like they're going to ejaculate. It sounded like he said "Scotland have won the World Cup!" - there was probably an "in" after "won" but that's not what it sounded like.

42nd v 83rd in the FIFA rankings.  

The win's the important thing, regardless of how unconvincing. That came from a big deflection in the 8th minute, and a lot of hanging on in that second half.
