    Any comments?
    Really i feel this is another really poor selection from Burley. Who is Robert Snodgrass is is League 1 really the level where our players are coming from? Where is Burke from the Championship, even Lee Wallace and Charlie Mulgrew have been overlooked in the squad. And although I'm not a fan Kevin Kyle was called up for a crunch match against Holland and pulled out the squad and now he isn't good enough for a friendly. Jamie Langfield and David Marshall instead of Neil Alexander is a joke also.

    I know Scotland aren't a nation we once were but surely we need to be picking our best available players to give our selves at the very least a fighting chance. Burley's job has been based on one game against Holland and apart from that his selections and team performances have been poor, again another poor selection for the japan game!!
